THE IDEA! GIRLSBARRED
FROM SPEAKING MEET
But Washington Irving High
Will Challenge Winner,
So There!

Perhaps Il would be Just As we'll for
Prof. Elmer Smith. head OF the public
speaking classes at Colgate University. to
select almost any street except Irving
place when cruising about Manhattan
from this time on. The girls OF the
Washington Irving High School have a
mad on against tho professor.
For tho professor telegraphed the
Washington Irving girls yesterday that no
female OF the species may compete in the
public speaking contest among high school
students. which is to take place tonight
In the Commercial High School. brooklyn
And for weeks the Washington Irving
girls. following an invitation to compete
had labored through elimination contests
in preparation for the meet and had de-
cided that Miss Beatrice Raum could win
for Washington Irving High without half
trying. with Miss Mary Alexander as
alternate.
II Prof. Smith stlll holds the opinion
that woman In the making cannot. pub
licly or privately, talk rings around all
the mere male students in the known
world he should have crept close. but not
too close. to the big building in Irving
place yesterday after the girls had read
telegram from him which ran: ~ o..
no girls Invitation was sent you BY mis-
take"
The gist Of that telegram first began
10 melt the bronze hinges OF Washington

up the elevator shafts and mushroomed
In moment even the noise of the electric
cocktail shaker in the billiard room OF
the Players Club around the corner be
came somewhat blurred, And when
Washington Irving Highs famous Red
Haired Brigade had read Prof. Smiths
bitter words there was some talk Of send =
ing in q fourth alarm.
And out OF II all came the fact that
