BARNARD GIRLS GIVE BURLESQUE ON MENTAL TESTS “What's Your I. Q.?” Is Fea tue of College Commence- ment Programme. A play entitled “What's Your 1. Q otelligence Quotient)?" a burlesque on college mental tests, proving that “Neve and psychology’ and “women and the higher laws" have no gonnection with one another in any form or situation, was the feature of Commencement Day at Barnard Col- lege yesterday. The play was pre eeded by the trustees’ iuncheon to the alumnae at 1 o'clock and was pre- sented by the New York Barnard Club in the Brinckerhoff Theatre at 3.30. The plot was based on the new pay chological tests the colleges and unt- versities gave after the war and the army and navy gave during the war. A young author who was’ in the war decides to become a teacher of psy- chology to judge and test every one whom he mects by ‘this highest of laws." He soon becomes one of the "paychic’' order and then preaches and teaches, talks and tells everybody and every one that they should “marry, eat, work and rule their cooks all through the new psychologi- ca) tests." The first person he tries it out on happens to be his cook. The test fails. The cook leaves and he has to “Tough luck,” he exclaims. “Of course, she would not work out by scientific rules or laws.” The next test he gives is to a little flapper. He falls in love with the flapper and comes to the conclusion that he will marry her through “the new psycho- logical tests.” They don't work. Neither does she ‘work according to them. He is about ready to lose his soul mate in the same manner as he lost his cook, but, lo, he changes. He goes back to writing, leaves psychology alone and marries the girl, eat out. The play was written by Margaret E. Mochrie, class of 1920.
