MISS TAFT SNUBBED
 BY BRYN MAWR HEAD

Philadelphia, Oct. 26.-M1ss Helen Taft, daughter of the ex-president, who headed a large delegation of Bryn Mawr college girls in a protest against the recent elimination of the college Itcut system, was politely but firmly snubbed last night by Miss M. Carey Thomas, president of Bryn Mawr, when she turned on her heel and walked from the meeting which the students had arranged.
 A general students strike now is imminent. Under the old system of cuts for class room and lecture work, the girls were permitted to attend or not as they pleased, but now they are pena1ized for cutting. They object to this on the ground that the ruling is reflection on their self governing organization.
 Miss Thomas first addressed the protesting. girls announced her entire confidence in the students, saying the new rule was for their best interests, and then abruptly left the session without waiting to hear what Miss Taft or any of the other students had to say and without giving them any. satisfaction as to her future action.
 The arbitrary action of their presi- dent came as a big surprise to the girls and the meeting came to a sudden termination. The news of the snub spread through the campus, and there were many reports of pro- posed retaliation by the students.
