when they see it.
1t was this pull of Kumagae's that
put national champion William John
ston where the tennis balls weren't at
Newport, and vice versa.
The pulled drive is played as fol-
lows:
1t is ne; Willy cut sideways, upward
and outward, with little follow
through" Usually the finish is high
up, with the racquet pointing away
to the right, but often it comes in
again and ends almost over the head.
The person who masters this stroke
can drive the ball fully three feet
above the net and yet rely on its
dropping just inside the baseline, since
the ball takes a terrific drop at the
end of its flight
This is due to the fact that the bail
spins about an axis that is tilted at
an angle of approximately 35 degrees,
with the axis of spin slanting away
from the player. Whereas the cut
drive may curl out of court time after
time, the pulled drive does just the
opposite.
Kumagae is one Of the few who
have mastered the pulled drive, on
both the forehand and backhand sides.
Wilding used it as a forehand drive
with smashing effect in gaining some
of his championship victories.
- La
meets here can use it. So despite Ku-
magae's non-commital attitude and
face, it is possible that the rarest
} stroke in tennis will yet win ArAeri-
cas- premier tennis honors for Japan
eyes," says Kumagae after talking
over the details of the pulled drive
cit is very fine stroke"

REPORT OF THE WOMEN'S
COLLEGE COMMITTEE

The following report was pre-
scented by the Women's College
Committee:
The committee on the Women's
College have not much to report
beyond making expenditures from
available resources for necessary
equipment for physics, chemistry,
botany, a practice dining room,
lockers for day students, and
gymnasium and other apparatus
for ventilating the chemical lab
oratory, most of which is of a
permanent nature, and some con-
sists of supplies. After making
these expenditures, and safely as
Stunning that the expenses of
boarding the students will be met
from payments made by them, it
is evident that the funds available
will be sufficient to pay the run
ming expenses for the rest of the
fiscal year.
The committee authorized eX-
penditures for publicity and for
participation in a h i S o r
Shakspere pageant.
Looking to the future develop,
ment of the institution, the com
mittee considered two important
matters without taking action
jOne was the erection, equipment
and maintenance of one-rOon
model rural school house to bt
used as a practice school house
for students in pedagogy. The
benefits of an opportunity afford
ed thereby to practice and OBJ
serve are obvious. There are sew
eral unsolved problems in connec
ton with the project, and thu
committee makes no recommends
ton respecting it at this time.
The other matter was the pres
ent pressing need of a gymnasium
1t is thought that for twenty-five
thousand d o liars (S25,000) ;
building could be erected anc
equipped for the purpose, and i
would also serve temporarily al
an assembly room for lectures
chapel and like gatherings, tn
need of which will be pressing a
the number Of students increases
Mention is made of the matter a
this time so that it may be in tn
minds Of the trustees.

Resolve that the old Dormitory
Building be remodeled as a Com

cost of 100000, and that the
Board of Trustees of Delaware

energetically into all the plans of
the school. Especial appreciation
is due to Professor George E. Dut-
ton for editing the catalogue and
for giving general oversight to all
details affecting the progress of
the Summer School.
You doubtless know that several
other states have been quickened
into new interest as regards the
higher education of women by
reason of the success of the Wo-
mems College of Delaware under
the direction of DR.. Winifred j
Robinson, as Dean. The many
friends who championed it's estab-
lishment, Miss Robinson and her
faculty have been untiring in
their devotion to the moral and
cultural interests of the young
women committed to their care
1t has been most gratifying to me
to observe the signal success
which the students are making
under the wholesome and stimulat
ing influences which surround
them. The buildings which the
State of Delaware erected as the
body Of the College, now have {
soul, vibrant with the spirit Of
social service, and aspiring for thu
truest development in culture anC
character of the women of oul
country.

Committee on Agriculture

concentrations of the report re-
specting the Bacon Farm and for
the Farm Laboratory. lnasmuch

EXECUTIVE SESSION
REPORTED

EAESull II SESSloN
REPORTED
The following report of an i'm
portant executive meeting held in
Wilmington last February was
presented to the Board.
A meeting of the Executive
Committee was held this day at 9
a. m. at DUPONT Hotel, Wilmington
PURSUANT to due notice, and there
were present, President Mitchell,
Mr.. Thompson, Mr.. Hossinger, Mr..
Sharp and Chancellor Curtis.
Committee on Plans and Develop
ments
Mr.. Sharp for the committee
made a verbal report that plans for
the new science building had been
/ substantially settled, with only a
| few details to be settled, and that
it was expected that bids for con-
construction would be received
and the contract awarded before
the middle of May, so that the
work will have progressed to such
an extent that the cornerstone
may be laid during Commence
week.
The committee also reported
concerning revised plans concern
ing the main building, and they
were considered without action

items Of expenditures were with

except two items, viz: for inter
3 est and miscellaneous items. The

WHY

| Why on earth was ever put on
earth? one exclaims to himself, if
not to others. OF course, the Snug
and consciously superior people make
no such inquiries, but the humble and
striving people do, and they, thank
God, are in the majority
There is dull sameness about llu-
man careers that becomes, at times,
a bit nerve-racking. Day succeeds
day, and we seem no farther advanced
along the pathway of our lives. To-
day we are twenty-four hours older
than yesterday, and that is all. AS
Mark Twain once observed, we do not
seem to be gaining any on the seen
cry.
The most tiresome hours at sea are
those when our sloop is in the dol
drums, with sails hanging limp and
getting us nowhere. 1t is then that
one questions whether it is worth
while to cruise at all. How many
prosaic lives are lived similarly, in
the doldrums! The waking hours of
thousands are spent in earning a
wage just big enough to satisfy house
hold needs. Each Saturday night the
books just about balance, with no
surplus of time, strength or money
left over. Nor is the experience con
fined to the humblest workers. "This
is a dogs life" said man TO his COM
panion, as they walked from work.
His occupation was one of consider
able Importance and emolument, but
still kept him, year after year, in the
straightest of straight jackets.
1t is not much to be wondered at
that there rests upon many of the
worlds workers a dull mood Of wear
mess. From early morn till set of
sun they perform the toll of the day,
tumbling into bed at last merely to
get strength to do the same things
over again tomorrow. 1t is said that
insanity reaches high percentage
among farmers wives. One can cas-
lily believe, but ! imagine that many
besides dwellers in rural parts come to
regard life as being what the ancient
cynic called it: Gone long horrid
grind"
We easily find place in the scheme
of things for a William the Conquer
er, Queen Elizabeth, or a George
Washington. The towering greatness
of the few requires no apology. But
it is not always so easy to find an ex-
cuse for the plain John Smith, nor
for his sister Mary. 1t is not easy,
that is, till one attains the clear NOR
al vision to see that any spinner in
cotton mill who does his work with
steady faithfulness is on a par with
the genius whose deeds are trumpet
ed to the ends of the earth.
Each human life has its own pecu-
liar gift for the world, and It is one
that no other life can make. There
are no duplicates in nature. That
poem of Emerson is in point in which
the squirrel is made to say to the
mountain: "If / cannot carry forests
on my back, neither can you crack
nut" 1t is a parable of the widest
application.
Let none of US consent to be brow
beaten by greatness. This world is
not delivered into the hands of the
brilliant. The possibility of immense
ly valuable service is open to the
humblest, There is place for the
average man.
