Mrs. Barbara Wootton, must necessarily include generalizations that are both superficial and misleading. The phi- losophy differs widely in political out- look and temperament, but the British working class itself is united for three reasons: because it is British, because it works for weekly wages, and because the-wages are. limited. The workman’s philosophy, as such, is the same the whole industrial world over. It is one of resignation, of not expecting much. from: life, and it is tempered in Great Britain by only slight expectation of escape. The worker expects to be a worker all his life, never a captain of industry, or even a participant in the stock mar- ket. Escape for him is pure chance, perhaps as the winner in a football pool or a racing sweepstake. Also in common with other coun- tries is his potential envy of more fortunate economic classes, not flam- ing envy, but a potential response to appeals. All working classes have at some time expressed their resent- ment at the unevenness of distribu- tion. In reality, their ambitions are modest; with a secure income of five pounds a .week their castles-in-the- air will be realized. . Nevertheless, they display characteristic outbursts of mass emotion; all classes could participate in an event like George V’s funeral. The coronation, how- ever, will not be attended by typical British people, because of the price of tickets, about a week’s earning for low-paid workers. The typical_peo- ple attend the dress rehearsal and make themselves useful by accustom- ing the royal horses to cheering. Another aspect of the British work- man’g philosophy is His desire for rity.. Workers will forego the opportunity of rising if théy can stay where they are, and pathetically _ great sacrifices are made by parefits for the education of their children. For the women, security does not mean freedom. The typical working class housewife is a slave; to her “a good husband” means one who hands over the housekeeping money regu- larly on Friday, does not habitually get drunk, and stays home occasionally T+ , “COLLEGE CALENDAR | Thursday, May 6.—Lecture by John Mason Brown.

About thirty representatives of the Lehigh University Robert W. Blake Society visited Bryn Mawr Friday afternoon, April 30. The visit was arranged with the help of Mrs. Theo- dore De Laguna and members of the Bryn Mawr Philosophy Club. Lehigh group about the campus. Mr. Harry Helson gave an informative demonstration onythe effect of light on surface clgeand the contours of the sound-waves in human voices. After the tour of the campus there was a-Philosophy. Club meeting and tea at which Mr. Dean Stevenson, of Lehigh, the president of the Blake | Society, read a paper on Philosophy and Art. His approach to the subject. was historical, and he used numerous examples to illustrate his points. Leigh Steinhardt, ’37, answered him with another. paper on the same topic, but her approach was purely philo- sophical. The discussion which fol- lowed was animated and. meowe up only when time came for dinaféy. The Lehigh delegates were é “enter- tained by the Philosophy Club ‘and their guests at dinner in the Deanery, gave a lecture on Phantasy ayd Per- after which Mr. Donald ra Pe sonality.

Shakespeare’s Villains Intellectual. Hatred in Edmund Contrasted With Diabolic Passion in Iago EVIL IS AARON’S GOOD Goodhart, April 29.—“I trust you Mr. George Lyman Kittredge as he began the Ann_ Elizabeth Sheble Memorial Lecture on Shakespeare’s Villains, After this introduction to his-first visit to Bryn Mawr, he im- mediately entered into a detailed dis- cussion of the’ villains, quoting ex- tensivel om the texts of the plays. Aaron in Andronicus was in love with villainy, said Mr. Kittredge. Crime was his element, and his creed, liké _Satan’s, was “evil be thou my The fact that’ he was born under Saturn meayt much to our an- cestors who. put/ great -faith in astrology. Aamo one redeeming feature was his/ love for his baby, whose lullaby, “said Mr.— Kittredge, “Marlowe couldn’t have written.” If there had been no Aaron there would be no Othello. Similarly, the character of Iago had a direct influ- ence on the development of Edmund in King Lear. _Both had legitimate motives for resentment, but Iago’s hatred is passionate, diabolical, whereas Edmund’s love for: crime is calmly intellectual, bearing neither hatred nor malice. When Coleridge called Iago’s malignity “motiveless” he was wrong, for the villain had two passionate motives: a sense of in- justice, to which he merely alludes; and suspicion of Othello, fostered by jealousy and based on rumor, to which he refers in his soliloquies. * Edmund, unlike Iago, is dispassion- ate. He has no hatred for his vic- tims.. He has, however, a valid case, being wronged first by the law of: primogeniture which cut him, a youngest son, from: any inheritance, and secondly by society’s distinction mate” son. A natural son, he says in the -true Elizabethan manner, should get natural rights. \ Iago, too, is wronged when Cassio is promoted over his head. Before that he had done nothing villainous. He used Roderigo for sport, to be sure, but that was not bad form in Shakespeare’s time. Resentment, not urder, is therefore justified. At first ‘he has no thought ‘of. murder. He is merely trying to use his oppor- tunity to get Cassio’s place, to worry Othello, and perhaps even to win Desdemona. In other words he is a typical army officer in Elizabethan drama and life. Don John, the bastard brother in Much Ado. About Nothing, is not as clever as Iago or Edmund.

True to Sher- wood tradition, the play evolves from the chance gathering of a cross-section of humanity, motivated by some com- mon, external source of tension. -This provides almost every member of the cast with an important and individual part. In particular, .T. Simmon’s old grandpa, T. Watkin’s amorous, gum- chewing football star, and R. Aucott’s cherubic Jackie were exceptionally well played. Margaret Otis, ’39, and Sam Withers as the discontented Chisolms, C. Baum as Herb, Ellen Matteson, ’40, as the Mexican’ cook, and linesmen, gangsters and legion- naires, while they may have erred on the-side of over-acting, were all-dis- tinct personalities, rigid ‘parts of a complicated counter-point of character and diction. There are, none the less, certain difficulties involved in an amateur pro- duction ofthis play: the fact that al- most every member of the audience had seen either the Broadway or movie version and that practically no acting and a great many technical problems occur during the course of its two acts. These were handled with notable suc cess. While the personality of Leslie Howard almost completely dominated the Broadway production, the script does not: necessarily call for this in- terpretation. The play belongs to Gabby as well, and Wirginia Lautz, 89, showed this throughout her per- formance. A_ paradoxical’ character reflecting the drabnes$ of a filling sta- tion and the poetry of Frangois Vil- lon, she seemed to deserve Alan’s sac- rifice; she was naive, direct and genu- ine as well as romantic. This two- ‘sided personality must have been hard Continuea on Page Five Senior Reading Period Mrs. Manning ‘has asked the_.

At 5.30 a. m. neither intelligence” nor rowdiness were particularly noticeable among either the sophomores, who prepared coffee and rolls and then woke the seniors with singing and baskets of flowers, or among the seniors who .soon discovered that the morning was not only “new” but practically non- existent when they arose to partake of the afore-mentioned coffee and rolls before setting out to wake Miss Park. At seven o’clock the rest of the college gatheted under Rockefeller tower to hear the seniors’ Hymn to the Sun, which had put in an appear- ance by this time: After watching the seniors come downstairs, the presi- dent of the sophomore class, Nancy _, Toll, crowned the president of the senior’ class, Lucy’ Kimberley, Queen of the May. Each class breakfasted in a different hall. Thus fortified, the entire student body entered into the spirit of the day with -true Eliza- bethan abandon. Independent couples began to side and atm, small groups. collected to rehearse the May Day songs ang those who owned cameras prepared to immortalize the events of the morn- ing. Even the ‘sombre nucleus of re- porters, who had been standing by with detached curiosity, jigged up and_down a—bitwhen the brassy booms of the :traditional band an- nounced the arrival of the senior class, while the three lower. classes joined the hop-skip-and-jump, of the seniors. The college at large rushed to @ircle the four May-poles standing upon Merion Green. » When, the May-poles were wound, Miss Park presented Lucy Kimberley — with an amber necklace, which she - said she had had great difficulty in hiding from the seniors when they came to wake her, and Miss Kim- berley cast a rhymed glance into the future: “So as the last will and bequest of these ninety-four Janus-headed guinea pigs e’er they go out of door, I offer past and present A reconstruction of a future anni- “versary which I hope you'll find “ Continued on Page Three .

He is a real character, as alive as either Iago or Cymbeline. In Macbeth the hero and the villain are one and the same. The play is, in the first’ place, a‘ tragedy of Fate. Macbeth is helpless in the hands of the three sisters. He feels his moral responsibility, and becomes entangled in a universe he cannot unriddle. Secondly, the play brings about the ruin of a noble nature,yfor at the outset Macbeth is a devoted and loyal ASubject.. Lastly, Macbeth is a tragedy of wedded love. On the one hand there is Macbeth himself, poetic in temperament, lacking will and too full of kindness. On the other hand is Lady Macbeth, ambitious for her husband rather than herself. She is the one who prods him when he pro- crastinates. The real tragedy lies in the husband’s apathy when he hears — "She should have died hereafter.” Hamlet is the tragedy of-the whole royal family of Denmark and the family of Polonius. Hamlet and_his uncle are bitter antagonists. His uncle Claudius, has suffered greatly in modern presentations which have cut his speeches because of the great length of the play.

T. K. Saylor’s Duke Mantee, who sat ominously in one corner of the room throughout the greater part. of the play, sustained the tension which all. the other: characters felt, reliey- ing the lack of action’from any sense of stagnation. The tempo of the play improved noticeably with the progress of .the ~ first act, and had become really ex- citing at curtain time. The second act held the attention of the audi- ence, reaching a climax in the final shooting scene, where the main char- acters were prostrate on thé floor. Stage crews, we understand, co- operated well in making the produc- tion one’of the best in Haverford’s cone career. Special mention should be given to that unknown per- son who performed such makeup mir- acles on the colored characters of Jos- eph and Pyles, especially the latter, whose natural-seeming complexion (and accent) completely deceived a part of the audience. ‘A large part of this success prob- ably reflects the careful direction of Mr. L.

Ty- rell Ritchie.) The past weekend a group of folk- ‘dance enthusiasts, under Miss Grant’s ; guidance, went up to New York to take part in the eleventh Annual Folk Dance Festival. This is a cele- bration held on a Saturday afternoon each. spring by the English Folk Dance Society of America “to give all who dance throughout the year an opportunity to meet and dante to- gether.” Nearly 600 dancers gath- ered in the Seventh Regiment Armory, representing various schools and danc- ing clubs from all over New England. Many of the- groups wore the uni- forms of the societies which they rep- resented, making the whole effect very colorful. In the first and last dances of the program a Garland Dance and Selling- ers Round, respectively, every one took part, the time between being devoted to a great variety of other Morris and country dances in which all who were able participated. Sev- eral-of these were ‘ones which have been done in connection’ with Big May Day:or the Square Dances, such as Gathering Peascods, Pop Goes the Weasel and If Alb the World Were Paper. All who went enjoyed themselves so thoroughly that they are eager'to go again next year. It is hoped that by then the numerous enthusiasts throughout the college will have be- come organized into a regular Folk Dance Club and with Miss Grant’s help will be able to take part in the fun more extensively. ——EEeEe ——= GREEN HILL FARMS ‘City Line and Lancaster Avenue 4 reminder that we would like jo take care of your parents and friends, whenever. they come to visit you. = ELLSWORTH METCALF Manager 4 , CROWN YOUR EUROPEAN TRIP WITH A HOLIDAY IN GERMANY " OLLOW the lure of the ro- mantic Rhine.

British Socialism Has- Economic Importance Continued from Page Qne to mind the baby. If this’ is the ideal, the battle for freedom has not yet been won. Nearly all English political parties offer substantially the same program. In all there is a promise of peace, of better wages, of reduction of unem- ployment, and of. improvement of housing and health services. All in all it is a fairly good view of the real needs of ordinary people. The work- ing class movement is particularly representative. It is the child of the general movement, and of strong. in- tellectual progressivism. As an or- ganization it gives a meeting ground for groups united by opinions, differ- ing in this from American. groups which cooperate imperfectly. Most important is the constituency Labor party in practically every parlia- mentary division in the country. The intellectual progressivists can eat buns and coffee together, lick stamps, ment can thrash problems out as members of a giant enterprise. Voting figures do not reflect political convictions; ‘but they are the best guide we have. The 1935 election showed considerable strength in the Labor and left-wing parties, and Eng- land found herself with a Conservative government in Whitehall and a So- cialist administration in the London County Council Hall across the river. The pendulum usually swings back ———————————— F. W. CROOK Rooms 9-10, Seville Theatre Bldg.

All the political groups now are voting for Socialism and more. (The American labor move- ment is far from ocialistic; audiences cannot yet bé atgressed | as “com- rades.”’) ahs Socialism does not mean Marxism; the English are not linguists and they find the Marxist phlosophy diffi- cult to assimilate. In any case their class structure does not fit the pic- ture portrayed by Marx. There are two extremes, but those who look straight ahead can see a solid English middle class, which. blurs Marx’s two- class soclety The intelligensia, on the other-and, assimilate Marxism with gusto since they have liberated themselves from dogmatic religion. Marxian doctrines are also widely read in the mining districts, where society consists of the proletariat on the one hand and a bourgeoisie on the other. For ordinary people socialism means trying to introduce into economic and social spheres the kind of equality that exists in the political sphere. Once every five years at election time, the worker tastes the position which is always his by rights. In general he believes that the humiliations of the present social structure must be modified, and that he must not be sub- self-respect. demands, he thinks, is not compatible with a system based on the profit mo- tive. The conduct of industry should be a public function; the present sys- tem is economically wasteful, and its social merit is dubious. As reform measures, workers_ be- lieve in parliamentary democracy; hot many expect to die as agressors in a socialist revolution. Unfortunately an emotional tone- of pessimism has grown.in the last five years as a re- sult of the economic situation and of international events. This mood is widely. felt among working class peo- ple, who have observed the drift of events on the European continent, The left-wing intellectuals can be blamed for the morbid satisfaction they take in what they foresee as the decline of civiliZation. The result has been a paralysis of activity and a failure to believe in ourselves. Although move- ments in favor of unionization of the JEANNETTE’S ._ ° Bryn Mawr Flower Shop, Inc.

The socialist movement is Marxian in one way; it is strongly economic. War is seen as a result of profit-seek- ing and as the child of capitalism, the phenomenam of Fascism is conceived in economic terms, and minor and major tyrannies are interpreted in terms of a profit-making economic system..
