Besides being a concert pianist, Mr. Templeton is a composer, im- proviser, and musical satirist as well. Many of his improvisations are composed on the spur of the moment when members of the audi- ence suggest three or four titles with which to work. Mr. Temple- ton then weaves these different melodies together in such a way that the result is musically perfect, while at the same time each sepa- rate tune remains entirely recog- nizable. Mr. Templeton has appeared as guest soloist with the Detroit, Chi- cago, Grand Rapids, Kansas City, and Pittsburgh symphony orches- tras.

Niefield Outlines CIO Stand on Labor And National Defense " Common Room, December 16.— David Neifield, of the Philadel- phia Retail and Wholesale Em- ployees’ Union, spoke on the €. I. O. position on Labor and National De- fense as it was keyncted at the At- lantic City Convention. The meet- ing was sponsored by the A.S. U. Mr. Neifield reviewed the resolu- tions of the convention which cov- ered the following problems: La- bor’s determination to protect its rights as the nation embarks on a program of national defense, la- bor’s endorsement of democratic principles, and its plans for a cam- paign to organize -unorganized workers in’such plants as Ford and Bethlehem Steel. : In its stand on national defense, the. C. I.°O. declared itself fully prepared to discharge our obliga- tions to the defense of this coun- try but holds that any defeat of labor’s civil rights, or any retreat from the standards gained by labor in recent years is equivalent to a defeat of national defense. To labor, a program of national de- fense includes social security, Mr. Neifield said, and if the social needs of the people are overlooked, it becomes a program of profiteer- ing and repression of rights. Mr. Neifield outlined John L. Lewis’ criticism of the present de- fense program, in which Lewis stated that the nation had shifted to a war economy administrated by representatives of corporate indus- try and finance. Lewis held that unless “sound economic measures Continued on Page Two Maids and Porters Hold Gayest Dance The Maids’ and Porters’ annual dance, held last Friday. night, was honored by the second appearance, anywhere, of Tommy Shippen’s band, called The Fifteen Dreamers.

Sing Me a Song of Social Si gnificance, Or There’s a jas ‘i Trail a-Winding By Marguerite Bogatko, "4 Twenty years ago this very pre- Christmas week, a fancy dress dance in Pembroke was crowning the annual Bryn Mawr Christmas revels. The Varsity hocky team crushed Baltimore in an 11-2 vic- tory and the “Reeling and Writh- ing” club was being addressed by ‘Robert Frost. Leonardo Terrone was lifting the gentle art of fencing from “a de- teriorated and jerky exercise” to a thing of grace and poetry over in the gym. In the New Book Room Hugh. Walpole’s latest novel, The Captives and Edith Wharton’s Age of Innocence had just been put on the shelves and down in the Bryn Mawr ne ‘Blanche Sweet was, appearing in Unpardonable Sin, to be followed: -by Beatrice Joy: in Invisible Divorce. For the first time in college his- | tory the question of limiting week- ends was_ being raised and people owere saying that one of the nice things about Bryn Mawr used* to be that it was free from “petty rules and restrictions’ and that there was scope for “self-determin- ism on the part of every student.” All of’ which makes one think it’s a pretty small world after all.

The chgirs exhibited excellent co- ordination and unity of tone, par- ticularly in the Lo How a Rose E’er Blooming of Praetorius and Hush my dear, lie still and slumber arranged by Martin Shaw. The selections from Bach’s Christmas Oratorio lacked articulation of the different. parts although on the whole the singing displayed skill and spirit. The instrumentalists of the two who have been coached colleges, ‘| during the past few weeks by Miss Helen Rice showed promise of be- coming a well-integrated group. It is to be hoped that. such a combined orchestra will become a permanent fixture of the two colleges. French Nativity Play Generally Acclaimed Delightful Tradition By Alice Crowder, ’42 Against trellised pines the an- nual French Christmas pageant ‘was charmingly enacted in Wynd- ham Music Room, Friday night. Its success lay in its achievement of the note of simplicity for which the informal relation of cast and audi- ence, and the lack of sophistication in the play itself were an excellent medium; its small failures lay in the unevenness of acting, costuming and pronunciation. The stylized simplicity and sin- cerity in acting required for such a type of drama was caught and maintained by Louise Classen, ’42, asthe Virgin, who set the: pace: of the ‘play. The other members of the cast varied from this interpre- tation: Vivi French, ’42; as the central figure, King Herod, and Janet Dowling, ’42, as Joseph, out- did themselves in trying to present realistic characterizations. In do- ing so, although their ,attempts were entirely successful, the con- tinuity of the simple tone was broken.

Considered by Hardy Common Room, December 13.— In ‘his talk,on War-Time. Control of Prices, Charles. 0. Hardy, of. the Brookings Institute, discussed* the preblems involved in price control when economic war production has reached a point of full plant ca- pacity, and employment, and when prices have begun to rise as a re- sult of scarcity of resources or bot- tlenecks in production. Mr. Hardy also commented on opinions current in Washington concerning the na- ture of recent economic trends, and the ‘tendency of influential econ- omists to describe this trend as a period of secular stagnation rather than a cyclical depression, Cortinuea on Page Two Christmas Vacation Proves Work Period For Many of Faculty Christmas Vacation for most minds on the campus means a period of rest and pleasant decay, but not for certain members of the faculty who, during the com- ing holiday, will preside over and contribute to many meetings of research societies. In Baltimore, at the Archaeo- logical Institute of America, from the department of classical archae- ology, Miss Swindler will speak on “The Goddess in Upraised Arms,” and Mr. Carpenter will speak on “A Statue of Medea in the Poly- platan Manner” and, later, on “The School in Rome.” Hetty Goldman, a graduate student, will read a paper on “The Origin of the Greek Hermes.” In Chicago at the Political Sci- ence Association convening from December 27-30, Mr. Wells, pro- fessor of political science, will speak on “The Future of Local Government in Rural America.” Mr. Broughton, professor of Latin, will preside over the Romah his- tory section of the Historical As- sociation meeting in New York, December 28.

From-now on, the Common Room and the May Day Room will_be open to undergraduates until 12 p. m., on week-ends. This new plan ¥ Will fill the frequently expressed - desire for some place to go other than movies or a dance floor, and the newly-repaired Capehart and radio should act as powerful draw- ing cards. Cooking on the gas ranges will also be possible. The suggestion of a six- day week with classes on Saturday has been carefully considered this fall by the faculty. The arguments in favor of such a system would be the relief of Wednesday tension and a better distribution of classes with regard to conflicts and overcrowded days. | The faculty turned down the six- day plan in favor of a revision of the present schedule so as to make full use of the five-day week. The new schedule will be posted some- time during the second semester and will go into effect next year. The main group of classes will come on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings.

It asks the campus to remember that many of the services the Peace Council’ pro- poses to sponsor are maintained al- most exclusively by colleges and are the kind of services which tend to be ignored in war-time. Students who have criticisms or objections are asked to sign a paper -posted on each hall bulletin board for the purpose. The budget must be re- vised if 20 per cent of the campus disapproves. The proposed allocations are as follows: International Student Service, 150 dollars; Far Eastern Student Service, 100 dollars; (a pamphlet describing these organi- zations more fully is posted on the Peace Council Bulletin Board) ; China School, run by a Bryn Mawr graduate, 100 dollars; Friends Service League, 200 dollars; Red Cross, 25 dollars. special groups are: English Ambu- lance Fund, 150 dollars;. Philadel- phia Community Chest, 25 dollars; Allied Jewish Appeal, 25 dollars; and to the Committee bringing Spanish refugees to Mexico, 25 dollars.

As long as there remains excess capacity and unemployment, said Lewis, “we need not sacrifice butter for guns.” The C. I. O. convention took no stand on war policy except as it affected the liberties of labor. Mr. Neifield reported, however, that many of its members maintained a position of neutrality, and were Impending Problems Considered by Hardy Continued from Page One involved in war-time price control into three groups, those arising from an abnormal shortage of com- modities, those resulting from /the government’s ascendency to the po- sition of a large buyer, and /infla- tionary problems involving the ris- ing prices which accompany an in- crease in spending and inyestment. In approaching his problem, Mr. Hardy assumes that the /fulfillment of military orders and the impetus which war production/ gives to all investment will absorb the slack imposed by the recent depression and accordingly bring on a period ef rising prices. /If this be the case, conditions quite the opposite of those prevalent in the last dec- ade will exist, for full employment of resources would be reached. Many Washington economists, however, do not believe that the de- fense program will be sufficient to pull us out/ of depression, and are cussion of inflation, Mr. Hardy said. These economists believe that the country was, in the last ten years, undergoing a period of secu- lar stagnation and has been con- fronted with a basic defficiency of opportunity for investment. They capacity amounts to three times that taken | up by the defense program demand. This divergence of opinion is re-’ lated to basic theoretical differ-- erices, and Mr. Hardy showed how statistical data had been incapable of resolving these differences. As to control of the prices of consumers’ goods, Mr. Hardy dis- cussed the probability of intelligent control: of rents, and holds that there’ is no real excuse for a food administration like that of the last of most food commodities. The question of tax policy was out how this, too, depended on the views of the authorities concerning considered a drag on inflation, but may reverse this policy since it finds itself responsible for financing the defense program. Curtailment of other governmental expenditures is in order, however, to make room for defense expenditures. Such shifts as converting CCC camps into military training camps, and changing loans on cotton to the buying of cotton for military uses are types of adjustments which can be made. Another. political problem involv- ing defense activities was the ques- tion of whether the program was to -be directed by existing govern- mental agencies granted extended power, or by newly:created agen- cis. Political controversies and in- terdepartmental jealousy figured in the quiet scrapping of the old War Resources Board, and the Na- tional Defense Advisory Commis- sion was set up by way of a com- promise. Mr. Hardy said that its weakness was that no one person on it had direct responsibility, Mr. Hardy divided the problems inclined, therefore, to postpone dis-|| unwilling fo see the United States drawn into the Europgan conflict. “The great problem of the C.

O. hopes that this figure will hit. the 10,000,- 000 mark in 1944, Mr. Neifield reported also on the C.

The first, on the Federal Water Power Act, defined federal control over all waterways in this country, considerably - extending federal power over commerce. The second decision affirmed the right of states to tax inter-state ‘com- panies in proportion to their busi- ness in the state. Many states, seeking a solution to the chain store problem, will undoubtedly take advantage of this decision. At his press conference on Tues- day, President Roogevelt suggested a plan’to give aid to Britain with- out raising the question of credits. America should produce arma- ments for herself alone.
