Professor Wenley told in an ex- ceedingly interesting manner the ro- mantic story of the growth of educa.- tion in England. The story generally related about educational 'facilities in England has been greatly exaggerat- ed. It has been compared to Scotland 'which has had universal education since 1870, while in England no such facilities existed, and there were only three universities, which were at- tended only by the sons of members of the privileged class. "But this," says Prof. Wenley, "is only part of the story. There are now 12 large universities in 1ngand, 9 of which have been founded since 1880, and the most recent was begun in 1926, such progress shows that England is by no means at a standstill." The first non-residential and non- sectarian university was founded in 1827, but was never granted a char- ter,~thus not being able to confer de- grees. Shortly following this, in 1836 was the founding of the University College, an entirely governing body. "The call, for education of a higher level," asserted Prof. Wenley, "was small, and there was no desire for a system of national education." Un- til the introduction of the system of primary education by Robert Lowe in 1870, educational growth was re a- tively stagnant. This system, how- ever, followed by a similar secondary system stimulated the desire for uni- versal education, and almost immed- 'iately a growth was noticed.. Victoria University was the first Federal university, which was later divided into three, Manchester, Liver- pool, and Leeds universities. One in- spired the other, and in a spirit of friendly rivalry several large univer- sities were founded. Prof. Wenley ex- plained the distinction between Ox- ford and Cambridge and other uni- versities. Men attending the two larger universities are being trained for national service, while the small- er ones train more definitely for lo- I cal service. As to the opportunities for women, Prof. Wenley stated that until recent- ly there had been no opportunities for women in universal education, " and that there had been no call for it. The first great school for women was Cheltenham College, founded in 1854, and many others followed this. All universities in England are co- educational, and men and women all come together in societies. The total number of students in the united kingdom is 41,794, of which 12,881 are women. John Lan gdon Davis claims in his new book "A Short History of Wom- en," that women have been victims of superstition through the ages. 1 "American people have the queer- est. ideas of our fashions," said Shu Ting Liu, Chinese student in an in- terview yesterday. "They think our styles never change, and they picture us always in pajamas, with flowers for head dress. I think perhaps our styles change more than yours do." She pointed to the sleeve of the dress she was wearing. "From the niew students, I ;hear that small sleeves, like this,, half way between the elbow and the wrist, are fashion- able' today, not the sleeves of several years ago, that you picture us as wearing, whose ends hung clear way down. "Our materials change with the seasons, as yours do, but more often, I think. Here, you wear one .fur coat for all winter. We change our fur coats for every season of the win- ter." She laughed. "I doubt if you think of us even as having any win- tel'."- And fashions vary in different parts of the country. In the north, in Pe- king, the short skirt, so favored in the south, and 'S'hanghai, is consider- ed most immodest, which attitude may be the more emphasized because of the existing trouble' between the two parts of the country. Shanghai is the fashion center of China. There, Western styles are fa- vored. The bridal costume of the oc- I cident with its veil, is usually used, not only there, but all over the coun- try, and the formal dress of a man. is the same severe black and. white suit that Paris decrees. The formal dress of a woman denotes the social position of her husband; Mandarin coats beautifu)ly embroidered and tiecorated were used when. Shu Ting! Liu left her country four years 'ago. In general, older fashions, decreed by custom, are worn for formal, by wo- men. Of course the styles for students and society, differ greatly. For the former they are much simpler. The elaborate head dress used for formal wear by society is never used. And colors used in dress are much quieter. Some years, plain silks are used, but usually the materials express- change in style, more by change in design and decoration. "For shoes, we wear many slippers like those you wear, here, as well as the em- broidered silk ones of our own coun- try. And of course you know, styles of the married woman are different from those of the unmarried woman, as well 'as those of one class from another. "And bobbed hair, it is -uite fash- ionable in south Chine, Though north China, when I left objected to it# greatly," concluded Miss Liu. In the Freshman volley ball tourna- ment the games have been re-scheduled and the groups combined in order to guarantee two full teams out for every game. There are now nine full teams with at least six players. The new ruling of the tournament is that any group which is not able to get the minimum number of six members out for a game will be oblidged to default to its opponent. Last week out of four games there was only one default. It has been arranged that all the games will be played on Wednesday and each team will play one. Attend- ance under the new arrangements is proving much more encouraging and as it is much more interesting to the women to come out to play a good game with a full team, than one with only two or three players on a side. Last Wednesday, Group I was de- feated by Group III with a score of 10-39, Group II lost to Group IV, 51- 12, and Group VIII defaulted to Group VII. Friday, the only game played was between Group $I and Group III Social activities on campus for this' week-end are some vhyt slight in' comparison with last week and what7 the Navy game will produce in the near future. The large number of students at- tending the Chicago game have left bare the campus, which seems doubly lonesome with the trees stripped of their bright foliage and the tense at- mosphere which preceeds examination time. Many of those who are in Chicago plan to attend a share of the gay fra- ternity parties at both the University of Chicago and, Northwestern centers. Here on campus the outstanding fra- ternity party of interest was held Fri- 'day evening at the Sigma Alpha Ep- silon house at which a large portion of the remaining students attended. Another party which attracted a great deal of attention was held on the same evening at the Collegiate Sorosis house. Many out of town guests were present for the evening and the house was artistically decor- ated in yellow and white chrysan- themums. At the Kappa Delta house a formal inztiation ceremony will be held this Poster Contest For Bazaar Has Opened With the plans for the Women's lea- gue and Inter-church Bazaar on Dec. 2 and 3 nearing completion, an- nouncement has been made by Flor- ence Watchpocket, '29, of the open- ing of the poster contest. Ideas sug- gestive of the festive spirit of the Yuletide season or of the .,entral theme of the bazaar will be accepta- ble as subjects for the posters. All women are eligible to submit posters' and a prize will be awarded the one judged best by members of the facul- ty of the school of architecture. Pre- vious to the opening of the bazaar the winner will be permitted to choose from the articles to be sold any one marked up to the value of $3.00. Posters must be turned in be- fore 4 o'clock Friday, Nov. 18, at the Candy booth. Inspection of the University houses .at Texas by Miss Ludma Kopecky shows that a they rate very high, mostly A or B class.
