TESTS PROVE WOMEN AS BRtOHT AS MEN ' j|' Intelligence Average Is Al most The Same That University women are not j inferior mentally to the men has , boon proven by the eight intelli gence tests given freshmen this year, says Prof. Howard It. Taylor, of the psychology department, who j is in charge of the work. The tests show, he continues, that the average is much the same for men and women. The women tend 4o cluster about the mean average, while the men vary more. Grade comparison and mental tests have brought to light mental superiority of women over men in sbme cases. Of the eight mental tests given, five are linguistic in nature, being: completion, artificial language, an alogies I, absurdities and opposites. The other three, analogies II, arith metic and number completions, in volve number or form. The margin favors the women in the linguistic tests and the men in the non-ling uistic tests. “Out of 19 samples of scores taken at random from the highest five percent in our tests at Ore gon,” he continued, “13 out of the 19 are boys and six are girls. The mean of the women is highfer but the very high scores are made by a very much higher percent of men than women, making allowance for the fact that there are more men in the University.” Good Attendance At First Production Given By Guild Hall; Plays Repeated (Continued from page one.) thur Gray took was effective more because of tliese lines than because of the acting. Pierrot was a bit commonplace. Florence Couch was easily the bright spot of the three plays. Her delightful charm, her light, fantas tic touch as Columbine would have won the heart of any audience. One of the mjost noticeable defects of any amateur performance is the lack of voice modulation; but it remained for Miss Couch to add this professional effect to the even ing. Despite the handicap of being 17 years old, Eleanor Beekwdth played fhe part of the old woman, Maurya, in “Eiders to the Sea” rather bet-’ ter than one might expect. Phy sically she was easily the woman of 60, but her voice had too much of the native buoyancy of youth. The play is almost wholly one of atmos phere surrounding the battle of the fisher folk of Aran Islands, off the coast of Ireland, against the sea. Others in the cast were simply “not in role.” To Miss Florence Wilbur, new dramatic instructor, should go the credit for offering the campus a Worthwhile group of plays. Dis counting the natural handicaps which amateurs have to surmount, one can thoroughly appreciate the excellent work being done at Guild hall this year. There were defects last night to be sure, but, at that, the production was worth the fine support that was given by the audience.
