u. S. Honors Dead Hero
Congressional Medal Sent tc
Father of ALBANY Soldier

From fhe TTt6unes Washington Bgvear
WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-The Con-
gressional Medal of Honor, the highest
award that can be bestowed upon an
American soldier for heroism in action,
was authorized to-day by the War De-
partment to be sent to James C. Dunn,
Of Albany, N. Y, father of Private
Parker c. Dunn, who was killed near
Grand-Pre, France, while attempting o
mission calling for great courage.
Dunn enlisted at Albany and was o
private in the Intelligence Section Of
Company A, 312th Infantry, 18th Divi-
sion. He volunteered to carry a mes
sage from his battalion commander to
an advance position, but was killed in
the attempt. The official citation said:
"For conspicuous gallantry and in
trepidity above and beyond the call Of
duty in action with the enemy near
Grand-Pre, France, October 90, 1918.
When his battalion commander found
it necessary to send a message TO a
company in the attacking line and
hesitated to order runner TO make
the trip because of the extreme danger
involved, Private Dunn, a member of
the Intelligence Section, volunteered
for the mission. After advancing only
g short distance across a field swept by
artillery and machine-gun fire, he was
wounded, but continued on and fell
wounded q second time. Still un-
daunted, he persistently attempted to

Physical Standards
Parallel to Mental
Tests, Barnard Airn1
Aided by 23 Schools, Column
bia Girls Undergraduate
Department Devising New
Fixed EfficiencyStandards

Barnard College freshmen are COM
peting with freshmen in twenty-thres
other women's colleges to set stand
ard of physical efficiency by which
students elsewhere may be tested. The
competition is the outcome of a plan
devised by Miss Agnes r. Wayman,
head of the physical education depart
ment Of Barnard, Columbia univer-
sity's undergraduate department for
young women. BY this plan. the first
of its kind, physical ability may be
measured in the same way that men
tai ability is registered by psychologi-
cal tests.
From study Of the records made
this year, in the hundreds Of tests
which are being given, the authori-
ties can determine the normal" score
for future tests.
Wayman, that a girl immediately can
be placed in the gymnastic class best
fitted TO her. If she has a high score,
indicating unusual physical efficiency,
after, the first term she may be ex-
cused from regular gymnastic work
and choose an athletic activity. Score
cards will show where any deficiency
lies, and the student will be assisted
to overcome the handicap.
Great interest is being shown by
students wherever the tests are being
tried, and the sponsors believe it will
create q constant tendency to raise the
standard of health. As records for
each class and college are obtained
the spirit of rivalry will add an in
centive to individual effort, it is be-
lieved.
The test as now in use at Barnard
is in three parts, medical, anthropomet-
ric and motor ability. In the latter
test the student performs eight exer-
cises designed to show endurance,
speed, strength, ordination, balance,
control, agility, skill, courage and time
reaction.
In the anthropometric test lung
capacity, chest. expansion, ninth-rib ex-
pansion and right grip are measured
The medical test is thorough medi-
cal examination.
"These tests" said Miss Wayman,
"'enable US to find out in one or two
hours what it might take a year to find
out if we waited for the judgment of
the instructor and the results of class
work.
One of the principal results of the
tests. Miss Wayman says, will be to
establish the relation between mental
and physical proficiency. Other So
called efficiency tests which have been
used. she added, have not been real eff
cheney tests, but motor ability tests.
I'VE are not testing merely for meas
urements, but for The material and
methods which make standard qualities
possible" declared Miss Wayman. "We
are measuring the individuals power
to produce"
The provision that students passing
the tests with grades showing superior
eftlciency may be excused from regular
gymnastic work and select their own
activities is similar to the recent inno-
ystion in the academic department of
barnard, which allows students of
superior mental ability to take the
"honors" course, in which they may do
special work in chosen fields. unham-
pered by. prescribed courses unrelated
to their interests.
