The main subjects under discussion were the Record Library, Freshman. Week, a new schedule of meetings for the A. S. U., the International Relations Club and the Industrial Group, plans for the Glee Club, and a movie of the college to be directed by Miss Barbara Cary. Rules’for the Record Library have been drawn up by an Undergraduate Committee. The collection is to be set up in Rhoads in two rooms, one for the victrola and the other for: records. A membership fee of one dollar a During dinner. members rental fee of five cents for two records and ten cents for an album for three days. Fines will be five cents a day for overdue records*and two dollars for breakage. Students must use non- metallic needles, and jazz will not be The record room will be open Mon- day and Friday and the victrola room every day “except Sunday when the library will be closed. It was sug- gested that it be closed on Saturday instead of Sunday because students usually work all Satyrday and: have leisure time on Sunday. Eleanor Taft replied that records can be ta out for three days and played any time over the week- oun including Sunday. A larger committee of upperclass- men and prearranged appointments for freshmen coming with their par- ents made Freshman Week run much more smoothly this year. The fresh- man chairman said that she would have liked to see even more upper- classmen because it was easier to get to know them before the rést of the undergraduates returned. Martha Van Hoesen, '39, thought that Stu- dent Advisors should be more aware of their responsibilities. She sug- gested that they sign up earlier and have a meeting before the end of the year to explain what they must do.

The speakers at the meeting included Elizabeth Di- mock, ’41, of the Bryn Mawr Chapter of the American Students’ - Union, Laura Estabrook, ’89, of the Inter- national Relations Club, Helen Cobb, ’40, of the Peace Council, and Lucille Sauder, 739, of the Industrial. Group. Each organization explained its function and platform. Laura Esta- brook introduced the speakers and conducted the first half of the meet- ing. She stressed the point that none of the groups ‘represented conflicted in any way, and that it is possible to work for all four of them. Later Elizabeth Dimock presided in a i eral A. S. U. discussion. Miss Dimock was the first speaker of the evening. She emphasized -the fact that the A. S.

However, like Na- polegn’s empire, he feels the Nazi rule will fall rapidly because. of Hitler’s inability to integrate the lands and the peoples. once he possesses them. The chief outstanding result of the Munich agreement is that Germany has actually become the victor ofAthe Great War and will Shell die less conditions today as if she had won it in 1918. Almost overnight the importance of England and France in the balance of power has been re- duced to a minimum and Germany will) probably have her way with both eountries. Germany has further increased her strength and conversely weakened that of France by moving thirty divisions of troops from the Czechoslovak up to the French border. From Hitler’s speeches it is. obvi ‘!that he is under the illusion that th Germans are a race of supermen who ought to rule the world. His present goal, Mr. Miller believes, is Rumania; it was a desire for a path to this country: and for the resources of Czechoslovakia. rather. than any moral struggle for the rights of Germans that led him into the Sudeton.

The college has given extrg~aid, in the form of grants and special scholarships, towards a vigorous and systematic study of this controversial ~quéstion. Nr Miss Wyckoff and Mr. Watson, of the geology department, are directing a symposigm of graduates “in_this field. Miss Bascom, professor emeri- tus of geology, and Miss~ Hietanen, from Helsinki, Finland, will join in the work. The “Piedmont: province” extends along the Atlantic seaboard east of the Appalachians, from New England to Georgia. The rock in this region ls gone through tremendous altera- tions, having been, buried, compressed, remelted and recrystallized in differ- ent eras. The well-kept lawns of local residential sections, and .the humid- -|climate impede the study of processes which must be observed at consider- able depths and over a large area. The technique of Petrofabrics, de- vised by Bruno Sanders in_ Inns- bruck, will be used by Miss Hietanen to study the rocks. This method de- termines the direction of the axes of the individual crystals in a_ rock sample. From this polarization is theoretically deduced the history of the erystal, the crushing, folding and shearing to which the region — has Continued on Page Two Florence Allen to Give The Anna Shaw Series Rise of Constitutional Powers Topic Of Six Lectures Judge Florence Ellenwood Allen of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals will be the speaker for the Anna Shaw series of lectures entitled the Historical Development of the Constitutional Powers. Although this is her first appearance as a speaker, she will have a far larger audience than the college alone. Students are coming from the University of Penn- sylvania and from the Temple Uni- versity Law School, while many “out- siders have already asked for the dates of her talks... Judge Allen seemed eager to ac- cept Bryn Mawr’s invitation, although her court routine will ‘prevent her from giving her six lectures in con- secutive weeks. She will, however, live on campus for a two week period sometime during the winter and thus have-a-good opportunity to discuss ‘her particular field with the students. The Anna Howard Shaw. fund was established» in memory of Dr. Shaw of Bryn Mawr (1928). It provides for a series of six lectures to be given every three years, the speaker to be, preferably a woman eminent in poli- tics, social science or any other field of scholarship. The individual titles for this year ’s series-are as follows: The Constitution, an Instrument for Freedom (October 24). Separation of the Governmental Powers (November 21). The Bill of Rights (February date to be determined later). Constitution and Labor (March date to be determined latcr).. _ ‘Democracy and the Constitution (March date, to be determined later). “Judge Alle’ did not begin her “law practice until 1914. Before this time she had been. correspondent to the New York Musical Courier, 1904-’06, and Musical Editor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, 1906-08. From 1910 to 1913 she served as a lecturer on music on the New York Board_of*Education. - Judge Allen served five. years “(1921-'26) as judge to the Court of Common Pleas in Cuyahoga County and two terms, 1922-’34, as judge to the Supreme Court of Ohio. termite what news shall be given out the Numerous New . Poems Are Read By Miss Millay Archaic Sonnet Requested by: Enthusiastic Audience - _As Encore DRAMATIC PROGRAM DISPLAYS VARIETY Gevdhart, October 17.—A little over a- third of the poems which Edna Saint Vincent Millay read Monday night were new; some had never been published before, some had been pub- lished only in magazines such as Harper’s. Miss Millay, apolpgizing for the number of unknown poems on her ~~ said: “I hope you don’t mind. ’m so much more interested in the new ones myself.” The best’ poem she read, the Archaic Sonnet, was one of these. It begins:- “Dark famished grave I will not fill thee yet,” and in it she says that she will die in her own time, only after having lived so full a life that there will be little of her left to give the grave. Miss Millay has a rich rather poig- nant voice, and she read with rhyth- mical and emotional emphasis. Un-. fortunately most people in the second section of seats could hear little more than the kind of song her voice mad of the poems. She enunciated clearly —her diction is beautiful—but there. lurks in Goodhart a. faintly slurring echo whfch makes speech intelligible to the back row well nigh impossible. , Whether people like Miss Millay’s delivery of her own poetry or not, they must unanimously agree that she is a good actress, and that as an ac- tress she reads her poems. She uses gestures, wery restrainedly, and can make her voice do anything she pleases. It would be impossible to evaluate a poem one has merely heard her: read, for she-can give-depth and poetry to verse that has little of either. I think she did essentially that once or twice last night. “Now that the West is washed of clouds and clear,” is the poem I have in mind. Her reading is undeniably creative— as she read-In a Fine Country and similar delicate little poems, she man- aged to show the significance of slight poems; that is, she showed them as real things in their own right.” A great many of the poems Miss \ Millay read—she read 27 in. ald were poems that dealt in some way with childhood. Childhood is_ the Kingdom Where Nobody Dies, from Wine From These Grapes, was the first of these; there followed the * Ballad of .

She then went on to describe the four” official sources of information. First. and most important are the hall wardens. As a group, they are cheese fitted to give. advice or to" refer the, student to the right person. Secondly, the College News is the | general source of all college informa- tion. It is inclusive, carefully checked, and regulated by a committee which meets every Monday morning to de- \ that week. This committee includes the Editor of the News, the Editor of Alumnae Bulletin, Miss Park, Mrs. Chadwick-Collins, Miss Hows and Miss Barbara Cary. 1 Continued on Page ‘Three - @ (Founded in 1914) Mawr College.

Because time has unfairly prevented you from graduatifig later than 1938, you _ have missed what we have barely time to know: how it feels to work in the Science Building, to climb’ up three flights to a class in new Dal- ton, and to live in Rhoads. Some of us have not done any of these, but we have grown up with the Science Building and Rhoads, we have echoed through their empty corridors, and we are proud to be a part of the enlarged pattern they make of academic life. As alumnae you are part of a greater Bryn Mawr pattern. You have more right than we to Bryn Mawr’s new possessions because they are your creation and your heritage. We saw their birth and develop- ment, but we did not plan them and work for them as you did.

Miss Bascom, who founded the de- partment at Bryn Mawr, was the first woman geologist in the world. Hers| « was the preliminary work in the study of local crystalline rocks. Two of Miss Bascom’s pupils, Miss Anna Jonas and Mrs. Eleanor Knopf, were responsible for some of the con- troversial opinions that have ap- peared: in the last forty years. The widening general interest has brought many new interpretations based on increased evidence. In the light of this controversy this year of directed intensive study is ~very_apt. ~~ Mr. Watson has long been inter- ested in the same problem.

The non- Serbian Croatians. and Slovinians are also threatening civil war in Yugo- slavia. The ultimate obit of Hitler is un- doubtedly the disintegration of the British empire. He has already sug- gested indirectly that’ since the Ger- avy is limited by treaty to 35% ritish navy, the British air- ld be correspondingly limited to 35%" of the German. At Saar- briicken, he intimated further that he would regard the election of a hostile prime minister as throwing doubt upon the validity of the agreements made with Chamberlain. Chamberlain’s surrender at Sunich has also immediately resulted in new Japanese “aggression in Southern China and_ renewed Arab rioting in Palestine. In America, President Roosevelt, realizing that hencefofth the United States may have to defend it alone, has~ already introduced a bill aSking increased appropriations for the army and the air force. College Coxlnci Holds First Meeting of Year ‘Continued from Pabé One Last year, meetings of the A. S. U., the International -Relations Club, and the Industrial Group were all sched- uled for nights in the middle of the week. The heads of these organiza- tions and Eleanor. Taft, ’39, decided that this made the week too congested and thought it ~vould be ‘better if the meetings were changed to” Friday night. Miss Park said that the ma- jority of students spend their week- ends at Bryn Mawr and would be in- terested in having something to do. Plans for the Glee Club are still unformulated. The Princeton Glee Club has changed its program for one which Mr. Alwyne. and Misg ’\Park consider unacceptable. If Bryn Mawr decides to give a concert, the big spring week-end could be taken over ee Players’ Club. Mrs. Manning thinks that this gives the Players’ Club a good opportunity for giving a really interesting play. A. J. Clark, 739, said that members of the Glee Club prefer to work exclusively on singing rather than mix singing with acting. Mrs. Chadwick-Collins sug- \ gested giving a Mozart operetta like Figaro or The Magic Flute. _Mr. Wil- ”.Joughby; “however; says that it=would A: > Bryn Mayr eg es have to be done with men and that rehearsal difficulties would make it impossible to co-operate with Prince- ton.

Mrs. Chadwick- Collins thought that people like to see the campus even more than interiors, and. suggested that it be arranged according to seasons. The general opinion was that colored films are more effective even though they are expensive. What is needed for the production of such a film, said Miss Cary, is. the co-operation of indi- viduals.

Agnes Spencer, ’89, enumerated the activities of the labor committee, and then Helen Cobb reported on the World Youth Congress which was held at Vassar College this summer. De- spite the opposition of American dele- gates, the Congress took a stand for dgllective security. It favored anti- Fascism and wider education. The Vassar Peace Pact, drawn up at the convention, favored unity between the youth of all nations, and opposed ra- Ncial discrimination. Wars of aggres- sion were denounced and it was pro- posed that in the future effective as- air be given to victims of all such aggression. The last A. S. U. business of the meeting was to elect a permanent rep- resentative to the district council, and a new chairfnan of the Publicity Com- mittee to take the place of Jane Har- per, ’41, who resigned the post. Mar- garet Squibb, ’41, was chosen for the former position; Olivia Kahn, ’41, for the latter.

The second is, as it promises, a ballad, and the last three are little child-views, very clever, of the world. Among the familiar poetry, was an extract from Conversation at Mid- night. Miss Millay chose the discus- «sion between the capitalist and the communist, with interjeetions by the liberal, ending with the liberal’s ad- monishing “Gentlemen,. gentlemen.” She read also three sonnets from Fatal Interview: the third— “No lack of counsel from the shrewd and wise,” the seventeenth— “Sweet , love, sweet thorn, when lightly to my heart,” :and the thirty- eighth— “You say ‘Since life’is cruel enough at best.’”’ Several of the poems were ‘humorous, such as Portrait by a Neighbor, from. A Few Figs From T histles. Miss Millay was applauded so : loudly at the end of her program that she gave a kind of encore, reading first a sonnet to Elinor Wylie called Answer Question, which she had never read aloud before. It began, “Oh; she was beautiful in every part.” A second reading of the Archaic Son- net followed, and when the audience refused to 5 Miss Millay ex- plained that she had to catch a train and quickly recited Travel.

Already there has been indication of a breakdown in democratic ideals among. the. Czechoslovaks. The be- trayal by ,France and England’ has made them cynical, but the friends of Czechoslovakia have not given up hope.

However, the Czechs came back with no change in democratic love of free- dom and next time the interlude of oppression will not be, so long. .

Campus opinion, and as much of the audience opinion as I could garner from bits of conversation was, and is, widely divided between acute dislike of her poetry and its rendition, and rapture over both. It is something that her contribution was positive enough to allow for no fence-sitters. : D. H.C.

Moreover, they ‘could not take this territory by foree without Hitler’s help and at present Der Fuhrer seems to prefer that Czecho- slovakia be left between Hungary and Poland. Both, though undemocratic states, are likely to be. troublesome to him in the future. In conclusion, Mr. Miller said that the Czechoslovakia : people have. not lost faith, but that patience is essen- tial. Both realism and idealism are needed at the same time. . Those who have “worked to establish and main- tain Czechoslovakia, do not feel that their efforts have been wasted, for an example of efficient democracy has been given to the world.
