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.”

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.
