The extent of the program provided many opportuni- ties for this talented artist. Miss Maynor’s technical ability was demonstrated at the beginning in! the songs by Handel where she showed remarkable control. Her full, strong voice was _ perfectly tuned to the soft notes of ‘‘O Sleep, Dost Thou Leave Me.” But the expressive quality of her voice was not really brought out until she sang Franck’s ‘Oh Lord Most Holy.” ‘Here the violin and the voice do not blend but the high violin part and the low voice part complimented each other in an; | 3 Calendar Thursday, February 19 College Council, 6.30. ‘Philosophy Club Lecture.

Mrs.Cameron Outlines 4 Factors Affecting Peace of Versailles Common Room, February 17.— Four important factors were in- strumental in determining the ¢char- acter of the Versailles Treaty, Mrs. Cameron said in the second lecture of the course in Post-War Recon- struction. Two of these principles —Wilson’s 14 Points and the Pre- Armistice Contract, were sabotaged by the other two factors—the secret treaties and the House Gloss of the 14 Points. The famous 14 Points were an- nounced eleven months before the Armistice and were accepted by Germany in the Pre-Armistice Con- tract as a basis for peace. The Pre-Armistice Contract reached twith the Reichstag government of Prince Max of Baden assumed a peace of justice along the lines of the 14 Points, Mrs. Cameron said. The Allies, however, agreed to Wil- son’s program only reluctantly and with reservations.

The “Ave Maria,” though perhaps a little less inspiring, again gave evidence of excellent control. “Widmung” by Schumann pleas- ed the audience more by its own melodic beauty than by the expres- sion of the singer, but Miss May- nor’s voice showed dramatic quality in the German lieder as well as in the French songs. The program fol- |. lowed the course of the develop- ment of the song in the history of music with a few exceptions. In general, the singer showed more talent in the- romantic and dramatic types of songs. The French songs “Adieu de lVhostesse arabe,” by ‘ Bizet, and “Depuis le jour” from the opera “Louise,” were done in good taste and with more ease than were the more serious parts of the program. Miss Maynor seemed to interpret the mood of the French sentiment more easily than that of the lieder. The modern songs were the least striking of the program although the ‘two Rachmaninoff pieces gave Continued on Page Four Modernistic Art Treasures of Argyrol King By Barbara Cooley, ’42 “The Barnes Foundation is not a public gallery. It is an edu- cational institution with a_ pro- gram for systematic work, organ- ized into classes which are™~ held every day, and conducted by a staff of experienced teachers. “Admission to the gallery is re- stricted to students enrolled in the classes.” In Philadelphia and in art cir- cles all over the country the Barnes collection is notoriously the most inaccessible gallery in the world. Large iron gates bar this Merion estate from all intruders. To get accepted as a member of one of the courses you must submit to an investigation of FBI thor- oughness climaxed by a probing in- terview.

Yet we got through the gates, up Three-College Professors Have Established __ New Retail Co-Operative on Lancaster Pike By Barbara Huit eX The co-operative fs the Main Line in Bryn Mawr has Mr. Helson, of the college Psychology department, as its president. He succeeded Mr. Michels, of the Physics department. A group of professors at Haverford, Swarth- more, and Bryn Mawr, under the leadership of Mr..and Mrs. Stiers, of the Haverford faculty, were in- terested mainly in the philosophy and economics of the co-operative movement, and finally established a working example. The first co-op was started in Swarthmore. It proved a success. Thus encour- aged, the founder launched another in Bryn Mawr in March, 1939, with goods stored in a garage and de- livery service only. Membership grew by leaps and bounds, and last December headquarters were moved to 778 Lancaster Avenue, just across from the railroad station. It now has a membership of 364, with an average of one new mem- ber each day. There is delivery service to customers from Wayne to Overbrook and even into Phila- delphia. The Bryn Mawr Co-op | specializes in groceries and ‘meats, although there are some toiletries and cosmetics. Many co-ops include garage service, auto supplies, and the like. This co-op will grow, said Mr. Helson, only as it is financially able to expand. Prospects are good and more than $150,000 worth of business is carried on each year. Five per cent interest is paid on money invested. This is a high rate, since co-ops often pay as low as 2 per cent. Receipts of pur- chases are kept and a “patronage refund” is returned in proportion to each one’s purchases over a given period. The important thing about a co- operative is that the customers themselves*own it. Each buys one or more. shares at $5 apiece, and each shareholder, no matter’ how much he has invested, has only one vote. Customers may criticize the service, prices, or policy, and can be sure that something will be done about it. One of the big advantages of a co-op is that the grade of every product is clearly designated, and there is no doubt. as to dependable quality. the drive, in the doors.

Row after row, per- fectly hung, perfectly lighted. The most magnificent paintings, the most comprehensive collection of modern French art in the world. Dr. Albert Coombs Barnes work- ed his way through school and col- lege here and abroad studying chemistry. —While—workingas~a chemist he discovered the formula for argyrol and proceeded to make millions. In 1917 at the age of 30 he began to collect paintings. In 1923 he returned to the United . States with his 3,000,000 dollars, but still embryonic, collec- tion and announced that he was going to build a 500,000 dollar mu- seum to house the paintings in Merion, Pennsylvania, which would become public property. When the public was finally admitted, the furor of criticism began. Art critics all over the country jubi- lantly informed Dr. Barnes that he had been duped into buying the worst conceivable collection of trash. Among the loudest voices seems to have been the misguided Bryn Mawr art department. Cha- grined the Argy1§l King folded his tents and locked the massive iron gates.

The damages were mostly due to the water, and the cost, somewhat under ten thousand dollars, was fully covered by the insurance. As a part of the process of re- conditioning the kitchen, the roof has been insulated both for protec- tion and coolness. A partition with many windows has been introduced into the kitchen itself, forming an extra room which will be used as a dining room for the maids. Minor improvements in light fix- tures and locations are also being made, . Price Control Vital As Inflation Check Says Dr. Clair Wilcox Advocates Selective System, Taxing to Absorb Surplus Buying Power Roberts Hall, February 11.— Price control is the only measure to restrain rising prices in this time of war, said Clair Wilcox, in his lecture, Can We Check Inflation by Controlling Prices? But price control mechanisms should not be used as a method of achieving other economic or social reform. If prices were left to take their natural course, rising prices would not apportion goods fairly among all income groups. As for the theory that production would be stimulated should prices be un- controlled, Dr. Wilcox said that rising prices would not increase production in proportion to the price increase. Mr. Baruch advocates an overall ceiling on prices, freezing all prices, rents, and wages on a given date. He argues that since prices are interrelated, it would be unjust to control the finished product with- ‘out controlling costs.

Mawr Juniors to Make Nominations for Campus Positions Voting by Ballot to Follow Description of Offices ~ In News ~ The election of officers for the chief ie recluse onto for the year, 1942-43, will start next week, to continue until spring va- cation. The following procedure for the voting has been planned: After nominations a description of the duties of the offices will ap- pear in the News, along with pic- tures and brief write-ups of the college activities of the candidates. The following week elections will take place in all the halls directly after lunch. Voting will be by ballot, and all undergraduates will be required to sign their names as they cast their votes. Non-Resi- dents are urged to be at college for lunch on days in which elections occur. If any candidate receives 15 +more votes than the sum of all the other votes cast, she is elected. If no candidate gets this plurality, a second poll will be held the next day between the two or three high- est candidates. Here the winner must have 20 more votes than the runner-up.

This Evolution of Freshman Show Animals Beats Darwin; From Griffin to Amoeba By Anne Denny, 43 Freshmen go through amazing hazards to keep their animals a secret—but “did, you hear, about the amoeba that got drunk?’’—not that it indulges in stimulating bev- erages, but it was on the stage—in a glass of water and somebody was awfully thirsty . . .. Thus, the mi- croscopic tendency of freshman an- imals was nipped in the bud. In the old days extinct species, prod- ucts of the imagination, appeared in a slightly over-stuffed.form, but now we have real animals, like Western. Union boys. Long ago, Freshman shows were far from our present idea of glam- our. Broadway influences were somewhat curbed by the fashion- able hips of those days. After a few Ziegfeldian attempts the trend shifted toward a rather naive fan- tasy type. The class of ’nineteen was frowned upon for its jazzy show with the song, “I didn’t raise my girl to be a chicken.” The re- action to. this. show forced: the next few classes into allegorical refer- ences to the campus, appearing in’ the middle of the Egyptian deser' or Alice’s Wonderland. Fashion in fantasy has changed from ’23’s greet griffin to last year’s mixture of Walt Disney and the lobster. Biology is an in- evitable source of material, and constantly reappears in various finiteiy —— - forms. The biological tendency reached its climax when ’29 gave The Dog-fish Receives, but the drunken ,amoeba ought. to discour- age the” idea in the freshmen’s choice of animal for the future. The—“changing” legs” of Bryn Mawr are a most interesting phe- nomena. In the early days, when the Freshman Show was still a short skit presented in return to the sophomore play, the legs were pretty well covered. As skirts be- came shorter, leg action played a larger part in the Shows until in ’28’s show, the big hit was a dance involving “a kind of circular col- lapse of the knees.” In the beginning, the freshman Show was held in the Bym. Added attractions were student and pro- | fessional orchestras and food serv- ed between the acts. When Good- hart was first used by the class of ’32, these tricks were replaced by more elaborate: staging. Coinci- dently, 1932’s show was the first to be thoroughly’ “panned” ‘by the } News for having a little too much Villanova, and not aa coher- ence. Nowadays, the shows rely on bi- ology, personalities, and Haver- ford. The departure from this for- mula in the direction of The Land of Oz or crusading knights have only resulted in an audience “as- leep and better to be that way.” THE COLLEGE NEWS considered decision as to where the money can do the most good. \ thought that this year was one in which to turn from the monoto- “ers, singérs, lighters, and writers’ to work out something new. ° It __presents-an-occasion-for the-cooperation of faculty and’ students. research and imagination.

A word about defense dinners—we like them; we think they are a good thing; we contributed to the unanimous vote that initi- ated them. But what-ho, where does all the money go? How to allot the money saved ought to be a campus problem. Before the next defense dinner is announced, the destiny of its proceeds should be designated so that all those who abstain from Inn ice cream cones can bear in mind the purpose of their sacrifice. Investigation and group discussion should lead up to some What’s in a Name? There has been much antagonism and rumor occasioned by the “Thing.” The word “Thing” has certainly had much to do with the mystery and wonder which has surrounded it. The Glee Club calls it the “Idea” and with justification asks, “What’s the idea behind the ‘Idea?’” To the Players’ Club it is the “Project.” All of which is confusing. But it must be called something, and what’s in a name? The Thing was originally conceived as a dramatic project which would mark the last year of Miss Park’s administration. a was conceived, not as a substitute for May Day, but rather as something which would coordinate the heavy schedule of scattered and overlapping productions which last spring crushed beneath it the exhausted dancers who danced through two productions of tremendous proportions, the.stage crew which wearily washed houses into castles into walls, actors, and sated audiences. It was| nous reworking of old ideas; that it was a year in which to cater to the increased need for creative relaxing work which would offset the discipline of academic and defense courses. The most appropriate subject for these purposes seemed to be a history of the college. In it would be opportunity for danc- It is a challenge, but not an insurmountable one. It calls for THE BUDGET SET-UP The problems presented by the college budget for the coming said Miss Park when interviewed concerning possible reductions in undergraduate expenditures to compensate for a contemplated rise They are’ found in con- sideration of any community budget. While they are more strikingly presented today, they are present whenever community expenses are budgeted and divided among taxpayers; they are present when a family budget is made. The technique involved is one which every student, who will even- tually have to plan budgets of this variety, should learn by ob- servation. co The college income has. two sources, the payments made by is comparatively full and the first item is correspondingly . fairly high. There is, however, according to Mr. Hurst, a contemplated loss. in endowment income of .07 per cent, which means approxi- mately $5,000. It is feared that the interest on endowment: will fall below four per cent, which will mean serious loss to the col- $1,000,000. Of this, $3,000 to $8,000 is budgeted as ‘surplus, a French Art Glimpsed By Barnes Stormers Continued fronf Page One clusive school into a cultural insti- tution for negroes. This brought forth a storm of rage from conservative Merion but the building permits’ were not re-| voked. Dr. Barnes then announced his devision to give the collection to the Metropolitan and move to New York. “I shall be a humble and unworthy follower of great people like Stokowski, Mary Cas- satt, Abbey, Sloan, Glackens and many others who. leave’ Philadel- phia to get a breath of fresh air and never come back.” The small houses were built; Barnes remain- ed. The affair of the ‘‘Ballyhoo at the Philadelphia Museum” did not help to soften hard feelings on both sides. In November, 1936 the Museum bought Cezanne’s Bathers for 100,000 dollars claiming in the papers that the Bathers owned by Mr. Barnes was a copy of theirs. Barnes retaliated by pointing out that any textbook could tell them theirs was painted eight years af- ter his, was unfinished and was only a fifth rate copy, besides he added that it had been offered to him at 50,000 dollars. Headlines dwelt on Mr. Barnes once more last year when he hired ! Bertram Russell, in the height of the NYC controversy as a member of the faculty of the Foundation.

A rise in prices is another cause for the elimination of part or all of the surplus. : Prices, according to Miss Howe, have not yet risen high enough to be a serious,danger. It is, of course, harder going at present to provide food, particularly, at the higher price. Sugar, even the percentage of last year’s supply allotted to the college, is sometimes impossible to get. In consideration of these factors, said Miss Park, it is pos- sible that the college will end the year with a deficit, probably a small one. It is, of course, impossible to make any accurate esti- mate this early. In the meantime, the budget for the coming year must be made. Based on the budgets of the preceding five years with estimates of contemplated changes in income and expenditure, | it is provisionally presented to the board of directors in March. The various items are gone over by specific committees of the board, and the final budget is passed in May. Of course, said Miss Howe, we never have enough books, we never have enough slides, we never have enough professors. Economy in living expenditure should always be practiced in order to increase the amounts devoted to these items. today, however, is a peculiar one. It is generally conceded that education shall not be cut down, although in specific instances, such, as those of blue books, blotters, and lab supplies, it has become The situation | 'when this aid must be given. While the author’s analysis of European aspects of the war is both shrewd .and brilliant, M. Chéradame’s outline of German am- bitions in the Americas, how close they are to being realized, is more particularly interesting to us. The chapters devoted to German pene- tration give an amazing picture of Nazi efficiency which is, to say the least, ominous. Chéradame’s charts show the alarming proportions of German influence in South Amer- ica, and, in the United States, the great danger from saboteurs and propagandists, both seeking to further the “invisible war.” M. Chéradame looks to America alone for the eventual defeat of the Pan-German plan. The latter third of his book offers his ideas as to the quickest and least costly means for insuring the permanent safety of the New World. Even though | some of these suggestions may be ;open to dispute, they are certainly ‘thought-compelling.

The most obvious cuts in these expenditures would be those in coal for grates, wood for the library, paper cups and towels. These might be eliminated without serious hardship to students. There is bound to be inconvenience in any case. “Why, you'll be incon- venienced everywhere anyway,” said Mr. Hurst. “You'll go down., tothe station to get a train and it won’t-be there.” “But whether the inconveniences of a cut in college living expenses would still be palatable by February, he added, is a question. Other cuts such as that in sheets and pillow cases could be eliminated, but would, only involve a transfer of expense from college to student.

THE COLLEGE NEWS Hudson Reports on Pacific Settlement Of World Disputes Although the goal of Pacific Set- tlement of International Disputes is to safeguard world peace, it is a paradox that world war broke out, just when methods and organiza- tion of settlements had reached a point in their development un- dreamed of fifty years ago, de- clared Manley O. Hudson in the second Shaw lecture, Discussing the historical growth of the methods of pacific settlement of international conflicts, Mr. Hud- son noted six types of agencies. These are, good offices and media- tion by a third state, which must always be asked for and must never be construed as an unfriendly act, Commissions of Inquiry for the elucidation of facts, which were first instituted at the first Hague Conference, conciliation by one or more states, and compulsory arbi- tration or adjudication, which gen- erally is agreed to before the con- flict arises. The Hague Conference of 1909 established the Permanent Court of Arbitration which, Mr. Hudson declared, was a dead letter from its inception.

Owls Conquer Drexel Varsity With 13 Baskets to Spare Gymnasium, February 12.—Bryn Mawr’s spirited Varsity overcame the Drexel first team in a fast-mov- ing basketball game, the second of | the season. The bulk of Bryn Mawr’s scoring was executed in the first half, when the team scored thirty-two points to Drexel’s six. The Drexel team offered inter- esting competition; its passing was daring, and quite frequently in- tercepted. At times their players showed skill in executing formation plays. Miss Castleman was nota- ble for her intrepid offense, and the whole team was quick to make the most of scoring opportunities. Bryn Mawr’s play was more careful than last week’s and more even throughout the game. The Owls. were coordinated and showed better timing. With a good. de- fense and intelligent passing they | showed their true ability in this game. Chris Waples was outstanding for her two baskets made from almost center court, and Janet Meyer’s always capable shooting was another factor contributing to the Owls’ success. The two second teams engaged each other in another exciting game, which Bryn Mawr won 54- 21.

F orty “Va leitline Camp ; at ‘Dix fae Evening; Army Greets College Girls with Open Arms By Barbara Hull, ’44, and Jessie Stone, °44 The Navy, Marines, and Pallas Athténe got our cheers in a desper- ate effort to cultivate seductive tones in our voices for “our boys” at Fort Dix. This was all on the bus. We rolled into what we thought was the camp, but it went on—on through curtainless bar- racks, busy barber shops’ and noisy tap rooms, on until— “There are only four men!” *‘Let’s go back.” “The Drexel girls got here be- fore us.” Did you know that soldiers have a life history? Erratum. They were not all college men. Some of us didn’t find any. Furthermore, did you know that whether or not they liked army life, they “couldn’t do anything about it?” Morale in- dication number one. Skip it. Let’s dance. Regardless of~confused impres- sions, we forty were. morale- minded. To arrive at any well- founded conclusions as to our. suc- cess, it was essential that we know a.) What was the morale. before we got there? and b.) What was i when we left? Gallup wasn’t there to take a poll. We did find out that we’re nicer than the Tren- ton girls, even though four of us had to resort to bridge. We were also informed that B. M. is the “locale for spoiled brats.” One was impressed with “Alyce from Pahk Avenoo.” “Oh, Bryn Mawr is like Barnard, isn’t it? I’ve heard of it,” said another. Conclusive reversal of opinion: There isn’t “something about a soldier,” except if it be that he wears a perpetual smile. Also, what’s this we’ve been hearing about physical exams? There were plenty of excuse-me- pleases-I’ll-be-back-in-a-minutes on the part of the uniforms, but we worked it this way: Approaching the nearest Mawrtyr, we blurted, “T’d-like-you-to-meet - Miss - Blank- Blank-excuse-me-please.” The entertainment,. consisting of vocalizing by Jack Leonard; an ac- ademic dissertation on the science of laughs—with demonstrations— was amusing. The hostesses had a wonderful time. ; There were some promising re- percussions: three proposals, plenty of propositions, bulging mails, a *phone call or two, and even a few personal appearances. But we’re altruistic. Let forty different girls go next time.

Especially com- mendable was Miss Maynor’s dic-) aiocost to tion throughout the program, ( The spirituals, coming before the modern songs, broke the continuity of the program and provided an in- teresting interlude. The spirituals cannot be considered on the same artistic grounds as the rest of the program, but Miss Maynor held the audience silent after singing un-‘ accompanied, ‘‘Were you_ there ’ when you crucified my Lord.” The arrangements by Dett of the other four spirituals partly defeated the single purpose of the singer, but she more than fulfilled the tech- nical expectations of this special type of music. Price Control Vital As Inflation Check Continued from Page One supposedly would be easier to ad- minister than selective price con- trol. But actually, Dr. Wilcox pointed out, the administrative problem would be overwhelming since what “price’’involves is not really determinable. Also free price movements want to be re- tained where possible. A selective plan would control prices where they were rising rap- idly without performing the func- tion of increasing production, Con- , trol would be extended both ver- \ticalhy” and horizontally through the économic system. _ Wage-fixing does not come under prmmenne e m ~ |the price control scheme. must be allowed to change. They ‘are not easily subject to regulation. Price fixing would cover three areas; prices paid by the govern- ment, by businessmen, and by-con- sumers. The system of rationing; our own Hives, will have to be policed. The job of equating rations and supplies must be ef- fected, and individual problems are still to be solved. “Price control does not change the fundamental aspect of ex- panded income and less supply,” said Mr. Wilcox. “Voluntary and forced saving,..and taxation must absorb the surplus spending pow- er,” he said, in order that inflation may be mitigated. Azorin, Spanish Critic Discussed by Salinas Continued from Page One Spanish element only in small towns. Only here did changing ex- ternal customs mean nothing. Life did not change from epoch to epoch. Mr. Salinas emphasized another important element, the omnipres- ence of time in the lives of men. Wages 4 Factors A flecting “Peace of Versailles Continued from Page One Many of the secret commitments ‘made by the Allies during the war were directly at variance with the 14 Points, Mrs. Cameron pointed out. By 1918 treaties had been ar- iranged between the Allies, Ru- imania and Italy. The House Gloss, holding an im- portant place in the discussions, i\was simply a whittling down of Wilson’s principles to make some bitter pills acceptable to the Allies, |\Mrs. Cameron maintained. Clauses on secret diplomacy, free trade, and impartial adjustment of Col- ‘onial claims were all interpreted la as to be substantially changed in their essential meaning. The Versailles Treaty was a dic- tated peace, formulated in_ re- stricted sessions, Mrs. Cameron emphasized. Only six plenary ses- sions were held during the entire peace conference and these simply | Tegistered the decisions of the ‘closed meetings of the Council of "Ten and the Council of Four. When |the treaty was presented to Ger- many, the German delegates drew up a memorandum criticizing the peace as a violation of the Pre- Armistice “Contract and making specific: objections to reparations, disarmament and exclusion from the League. After her lecture, Mrs. Cameron led a general discussion on the|@ question of the advisability of for- mulating war aims and the possi-| ¢ bility of educating public opinion up to these aims. Questions were also raised as to the League’s fail- FOR YOUR FAMILY ~ FOR YOUR GUESTS THE DEANERY Entertain Your Friends at Lunch, Tea, or Dinner ure to provide an effective inter-|@ national police force, the essential practicality of the 14 Points, and the care with which they had or had not been considered before pub- lication.
