AS SOUTH S TRIBUTE
Proposed to Build a Great University
for Women.
VIRGINIA URGED TO LEAD
Would Avoid Need of Co-Education
at Charlottesville.
ASKED TO ATTEND CHAPEL
President Alderman, However, Does
Not Believe in Making Attendance
of Students Compulsory.
Special Oarreapou'ieucc of The Star.
CHARLOTTESVILLE. Va.(
October 14. 1911.
The general discussion of a subject
that has received unusual consideration
in the past few years In the columns
of Collet:? Topics, the chief news
medium of the University of Virginia,
has been the most interesting development
of the past week here.
It is generally known by all those
who have followed the university affairs
in late years that on several distinct
occasions the Virginia legislature has
defeated a motion to establish a CO- j
ordinate college for women at the local
institution.
Topics treats the subject in part as
follows:
Tribute to Northern Women.
"The announcement made* the other
day that a movement had just been
launched in New York city to raise half
a million dollars to build a national
monument in Washington to the memory
?i the northern women who suffered
during the civil war, brings home the
fact that the heroism and noble self
Siv riti. e displayed by the women of the
south during tiiat bitter period are still
unperpetuated in marble or stone. A
movement to that end has been proposed.
and some of its most ardent
supporters are to be found here in Virginia,
but so far as we"know no official
action, beyond the passing of resolutions
favoring it,* has ever been taken
in tiie matter by either tae Daughters
or Sons of the Confederacy, or any other
southern organization.
"One of the most enthusiastic advocates
of such a monument is Don P.
Halsev of Lynchburg, a member of the
state senate, at its last session. His iaea
of a titting monument is that which
was advanced by a southern woman
nearly twenty years ago at the Chicago
world s fair She declared that it ought
to take the form of a great memorial
university for women. She called attention
to the enduring hxyaertts that
would accrue from such an institution
as contrasted with the unsuu. cautia: cuaracter
of a mere monumental shaft, built
of bronze or marble, however high.
Don P. Halsev sees in the plan to
establish such a monument something
besides a memorial; he sees . in' it a
means of averting the necessity of the
state founding a co-ordinate college for
women at this university In order to
afford the women of the state equal opjortunity
with the men for acquiring
higher education.
Virginia Should Lead.
"In an address he delivered June 3 be- 1
fore the Veterans and Daughters of the
Confederacy at Fannville, Va.. he sugcroc
<..<! that tho wnmpn of thp StfltP who
are favoring the plan of a co-ordinate
college combine their efforts with those
of the advocates of a suitable memorial
to the women of the Confederacy, and
ask that a separate institution, a women's
university, be founded by the state
of Virginia. 'By so combining their efforts
and influence.' said Mr. Halsey at
that time, 'they will secure a far more
efficient and useful institution than ,
they can secure by working for an ob- ,
jectionabie annex. Let Virginia lead the
way, and perhaps the other southern ,
states and their people will join hands (
with her in making the memorial institution
represent the entire south. Surely
no state is better entitled to lead than
Virginia. Let Virginia then make
the same appropriation and provide the
same annuity for a great memorial university
that will be asked for the proposed
annex. This will be sufficient for
a start, and by founding the institution
in memory of the Confederate women it
will ipso facto invite and receive support
from sources that would feel no interest
in a woman's college as an annex to the
men's university. It will give the annex
advocates what they want in an effective
and unobjectionable way, and will cost
no more tif as much) to the state, for the
reason that such a memorial institution
would attract contributions to its endowment
fund from individuals and organizations
which would give nothing to an annex.
For instance, it is conceivable that
those organizations already at work to
raise money for a monument to southern
women would prefer to erect that monument
in the form of a building or perhaps
to found a school ?>f industrial training at
the proposed memorial university.' and j
members of the various southern societies'
all over the country, as well as individuals,
would doubtless consider it a j
privilege to contribute to an adequate i
endowment.' "
Attendance at Chapel.
It is the policy of the faculty committee
on religion at the University of Virginia
to bring the strongest available
spgakers in this vicinity here to lecture
in the university chapel.
. Tomorrow Dr. Walter Dingle will occupy
the pulpit. Dr. Dingle is one of the
leading clergymen of the south, is a native
of Kowan county, N. C., a graduate
of Davie son College and Union Theological
Seminary, where he has only recently
l>een made professor of Hebrew literature.
For many years he has been president
of the board of trustees at Davidson
?"ollege. During his stay in Charlottesville,
he will be the guest of President
and Mrs. Alderman of the university.
Dr. A'derman. the committee on religious
exercises and a representation of
he student body of the university, have
held numerous conferences of late in
regard to the general attitude toward
< ha pel exercises, the duties and responsibilities
of the students in maintaining

and furthering religious services in the
university chapel.
The general sentiment seems to he that
there has been a lack of appreciation
and interest shown among students this
year. Just what methods will be pursued
is a matter of conjecture, hut it Is
safe to say that the influence of the "reformers"
is bound to show before the
close of the year.
It is hardly eecpected that drastic steps
will be taken. Dr. Alderman practically
set all such conception at rest at a recent
meeting when he stated most emphatically
that it was not his purpose to tell
the students what they should do as regards
the chapel services. They have
the right and they should reserve tire
right, he said further, of attending or not
attending as they saw fit. He merely
desired to state the conditions as they
exist at present, to show how the attendance
of late has decreased until it!
has reached a discouraging minimum. J
C. W. Wagner, A. v . tiisnop anci rt. o.
Granville, represented the student body
of the university at the conferences.
Lecture on Hebrew Codes.
Another large and appreciative audience
listened to the seiond lecture of a series
on biblical subjects under the auspices of
the Young Men's Christian Association
last Tuesday night.
Prof. Armstead M. Dobie. the speaker,
chose as his subject ' The Early Hebrew
Codes and Modern Jurisprudence."
Prof. Dobie's talk treated of the influence
of the Hebrew codes on modern
jurisprudence. He showed what cardinal j
* - ? * T ! ? 1? 1 t. *.?
principles ui jewisu iaw unit: i?-m i ?=tained,
modified and rejected. There Is
no more interesting subject in the whole
range of knowledge than the evolution
of modern jurisprudence, as was < learly
demonstrated in the forceful remarks of
the speaker.
Rev. Dr. J. Ross Stevenson, pastor of
Brown Memorial Church of Baltimore, is
here today to offi iate at the university
services. He is the guest of Dr. and Mrs
Kent.
Invitations haw been issued among the
university students and other fiitnds of
Mr. and Mrs. William Rile, for the debut
reception of their daughter. Miss Eleanor
Lile, Wednesday, October IS, from 8
to 10 o'clock p.m
Miss Lile is a young lady of charming
personality. East year she graduated
from a seminary in Washington, where
she has spent the greater part of the past
few seasons.
Mr. Lile is dean of the department of
law at the university, an 1 is widely
known.
Word has just reached here of the wonderful
success of Maurice Hirsch, a former
University of Virginia student, who
after graduating here two years ago entered
the Harvard I^aw School.
Hirsch has been elected to the staff of
the Harvard Law Review * considered by
many the greatest honor that can be conferred
by the university. Among the
eight selected for positions on the staff
are Robert Taft, son of President Taft;
Charles Hughes, son of Justice Hughes,
and E. J. Seligman. son of Prof. Seligman,
the noted philosopher of Columbia
University.
At the University of Virginia Hirsch
established an enviable record and was
awarded the A. M. and A. B. degrees.
He is also the possessor of a medal presented
by the Washington Literary Society
for unusual efficiency in oratory.
Martin Will Help Team.
The many friends of Larry Martin, the
?x-captain of the University of Virginia
Held and track squad, who established a
remarkable record during his career on
*i- til Vvo r>1oo co/1 tn loo rn
LUC iWIUCl }>a111, n ill Kfxr J'n. aci v* vu u j
[hat he has fully recovered from a recent i
operation for an attack of appendicitis.
Martin's case was a most remarkable
jne in that he was released from the hospital
a week after the operation was performed.
The success of the operation
was due to his exceptional physical conlltlon,
which was largely responsible for
tils excellent showing in athletics.
A pleasing personality and ability as
in athlete has earned for him a host of
friends throughout this section of the
country and resulted in his election to
the captaincy of the track team in 1010
and prominence in other college activities.
He will not re-enter the university, but
has promised to remain true to its colors
and aid in whatever direction he can.
"Pop" Lannigan will have his services in
rounding the traclf men into form until
about January 1, when he will probably
devote his interests to a farm that he has
purchased In North Carolina.
The Civic Club, one of the most prominent
institutions of the university, held
its first meeting in Madison Hall last
week, at which many topics of current
interest were discussed
The most important development of the
opening meeting was an announcement
of the completion of a written report on
the lire or mountaineers living in tne
Ragged mountains, which Is due to the
efforts of several members of tlie 191<>
Civic Club. The report is highly intereating,
dealing with ?eoiiomic. religious,
educational and Industrial features, and
Includes, with other things, the status
of marriage, the morals and the home
life of the mountaineer.
The work as it stands completed embodies
upward of lS.OuO words. It will be
published In pamphlet form, and copies
will be distributed among the public and
college libraries throughout the country.
Senator La Follette to Lecture.
Senator Robert M. I.a Fo,.ette will probably
be one of the speakers before the
Civic Club this season.
Authorities at the univemity think well
of the Wisconsin statesman, and are determined
to have him here as their guest
at some time when ?he will be in a position
to cast aside his (ongressional duties
in Washington for a day or two.
His reputation as a public speaker
brought his name to the fore in the discussion
as to possibilities for principals
In a series of heart-to-heart talks on current
topics of general interest.
The Civic Club is an organization that
has always been looked upon as a credit
to the university. It is composed of forty
students and ten members of the faculty.
The vacancies each year are filled by
election after being passed by the membership
committee. There are about twenty
vacancies among the student membership
this season, which will be filled
from a list of candidates.
latest registration figures show a substantial
inerease since the last count.
There are now 7?G students attending the
different schools. Of these 3B8 are in
the college department. .15 in the graduate
department, 3X1 in the taw department,
85 In the medicine department and
100 in the engineering department.
At this time last session the registration
was less than 700, which seems to warrant
the claim that the total before the |
end of the season will reach the OOO mark, i
President Alderman has accepted an invitation
to deliver the Founders' day address
at Tome Institute, a preparatory
school in Port Deposit, Md., the early
part of next May.
Founders' day is placed next to commencement
In point of importance on the
calendar at Tome, and ?h? <?
? ?? w ....itwvivu ?o
looked upon generally as a tribute to
Virginia's president.
Outlook for Athletics.
Tlie athletic outlook at the university is
growing more encouraging as time progresses.
and it now seems safe to predict
I 6 r
I All of ther
IT]
^ Lani
that this season will be a profitable one
from every standpoint.
The foot ball team is showing better
form every day and the acquisition of
several new men who have practically
clinched their positions on the varsity
eleven has added considerable interest to
the entire situation.
That interview with Coach Young of
ti e William and Mary team, who c aimed
some experience as a member of the
University of Pennsylvania eleven, which
was published on several -occasions in
Washlngtor Is not taken seriously by the
student body, the players or the coach.
Coach Young was severely criticised
after the William and Mary game here
frsv lav mothnrlu in A i rociin tv t) t r> nlfl v of
A. Vi IUA HH. ? ilV7UO * ?? V?'? vw??t>a
his team. The very fact that lie continually
allowed his team to receive the
kickoff from Virginia, paving the way
to score after score by the Virginia eleven,
led local authorities to doubt his ability
as a coach and his standing as a critic
of the comparative abilities of these two
or any other foot ball teams. It has been
pointed out that had he reversed his directions
and allowed his men to kick off
to Virginia the score would hardly have
shattered all previous records, as was
the case. As matters stood the helpless
William and Mary players would receive
the kick and after several fruitless attempts
to gain territory, would be forced
to surrender the ball within the shadow
of Virginia's goal posts. All that remained
for the local team to do was to
use a couple of plays and score a touchdown.
FIND FOSSIL SPECIMENS.
Secretary Walcott and Party Have
Returned From British Columbia.
Secretary Charles D. Walcott of the
Smithsonian Institution, who, with I?.
D. Hurling, assistant curator, and Secretary
Walcott's children have spent the
summer geologizing near Field, British
Columbia, have returned to Washington.
The party collected over four tons of
fossil specimens.
On Mount Stephen, which is near ths
Canadian Pacific railroad line, is located
the largest and finest beds of marine
fossils to be found In North America,
or, indeed, in the world. The mountainside
has been, in past geologic ages,
raised up from the bottom 01 a prehistoric
sea, and this ancient ocean bed
carried with it millions of specimens
of the earliest forms of life.
Among the other specimens secured by
ti e Waleott party are fossil specimens of
a large number , of species of altogether
unknown and undescribed marine animals.
TO SHOW NEW STYLES.
' Creations" From Paris Will Be Exhibited
at Eaoscher's.
"Creations" from the ateliers of importers.
dressmakers, ladies' tailors, milliners,
furriers, bootmakers and other
purveyors of fashionable attire for women
are announced as the chief exhibits to
be shown at the national style show, announced
for Rauscher's ballrooms October
23, 24 and 25.
The exhibition of the art that lies in
high-grade needlework will be a feature.
About twenty-five young women will be
employed to display model garments,
which will be shown in prettily decorated
booths.
Neighborhood House will have an extensive
exhibit, consisting of hand-sewing
as applied to garments, fancy cos
tumes for dramatic performances and
hand-weaving at linen.

Dr. H. S. Lewis Leaves Hospital.
Dr. Harry 8. Lewis, who has been
resident physician at the Emergency
Hospital during the past fifteen
months, will leave the hospital today.
He was appointed to fill the position a
year, but at the expiration of his term
the board was not willing to let him
go. It is the intention of the physician
to resume his studies before he
begins the practice of his profession
outside of institutions.
