Three of the dances were solos by. Miss Graham. The fourth was the elabor- ate American Document, a dance se- quence performed by the entire group. Miss Graham opened with Sara- bande, a delicate satire on court danc- ing by Lehman Engel. It was based. on the selection of certain typical actions or gestures: the lifted arm, the slow bows and the stately pacing movements These. were then exag- gerated by Miss Graham to the point of burlesque and absurdity. She held her lifted arm straight and stiff in the air with her relaxed hand dan- gling from it foolishly. When she bowed, she got down with calm, .de- liberate elegance and fairly wallowed on the floor. Her sarcasm was ob- vious and a little superficial, but it provided the good-humored and eas- ily intelligible opening that was needed. The dance’s_ heartlessness and artificiality, too, was probably in- tended to contrast with the intensity and passion of the second number, Deep Song, by Henry Cowell. Deep Song, according to the pro- gram_—note, “was not -meant-to~be an exact picture of a Spanish woman but presents the torture of mind and . body experienced in common by all people who react to such suffering as the Spanish people have faced.” Miss Graham’s own. personal reaction to her theme was so ‘apparent tbat it seems brutal to criticise such sincerity and feeling. Also, any attempt to res- cue the dance from the archaic and the trivial, and make it again the in- strument of truly popular feeling, is a praiseworthy effort, whether it suc- ceeds or fails. Nevertheless, we our- selves feel that in this case it has failed. The failure was not caused by any lack of intensity or skill; it re- of the subject to the style of inter- pretation. Martha Graham’s dancing is primarily intellectual and subtle. The suffering of the Spanish people Continued on Page Three K. Hepburn Appears In New Barry Play Theatre Guild Comedy Offers Playwright and Actress in Engaging Mood The Theatre Guild has produced in Philip Barry’s The Philadelphia Story a play that should be. successful on Broadway, Although it is rough in | spots this does not mar the excellent {performance of Katharine Hepburn or the good impression the play makes as a whole. Reminiscent of Mr. Barry’s Hattios which starred Miss Hepburn in the movie version, ‘The Philadelphia Story: deals with one of those fabu- lous heiresses who prefers money and the spirit of fun to money and snob- bery. Two hard-working reporters represent the base class which lives for the finer things in life and-has no family tree to speak of. Naturally they succumb .to Miss Hepburn’s charm and vigorous personality in the course of the play. As Tracy Lord, the unpredictable divorcée, who remarries her former husband in preference to a more stable suitor, Miss Hepburn proves again that her strong point ‘is comedy, in which field she can take on all comers. One of her best scenes is in the first act wherein she turns the tables on the press and beats them at their own game, “two to one in favor of the home team.” She get the maxi- mum humor out of her lines without losing any of her grace and poise. Her drunk scene is a masterpiece, al- Continued on Page Two U. S. Policy Toward Loyalists Discussed Peace Council Votes to Press Repeal of Spanish Embargo By Congress Denbigh Showcase, February 27.— A meeting of the Peace Council was called to discuss and vote-on the sug- gestion of the A. S, U. that the Coun- cil take appropriate steps to inform Congress that it is in favor of lifting the United States embargo on Spain. This ‘embargo is the result of spe- cial neutrality legislation. The Span- ish Crisis was not covered by the original neutrality legislation, only applicable where war has been offi- cially declared. The lifting of the embargo would enable the Loyalist side to obtain munitions from the United States in either Loyalist or chartered foreign‘ships as the United States would not be empowered to ex- port munitions in American bottoms.

The first news re-. view $f the college, founded in 1894, the Philistine included an editorial, book and play reviews, and contribu- tions from students. Typical is a fictionalized account of. Bryn Mawrters’ reactions to a hockey game in which they had just been beaten. Editorials are filled ‘with sage ad- "vice: to the” freshmen,. not. to_begin. bluffing until they are juniors; to all, to get up early rather than stay. up after midnight, and to study for ex- aminations in small groups because it is well known that memorizing is best done by repeating aloud. The Philistine also urges consideration of ‘the difficult prohlem, “when may a freshman ‘call. an upperclassman, by her last name.” It ‘concludes, some- what ambiguously, with the encour-| agement, {fight on, little sisters.” “ We were tar ee drawn to the “frankness of one.essay on “the Debat- ing Club.” It began, “In the philoso- ‘phy class last year there were five students who wanted to understand their work”—and they formed a de- bating club. \ The Freshman Play of 1897 gives evidence of seriéus intentions, though veneered in the pastoral form: “We find our flocks insipid and our shepherd songs a bore, This educated chorus, We’ve a great career before us, And nothing shall santone us-- To our. simple way.” Stapleton, Herben, Veltman—H.

Mr. Weiss ‘oie the following an- nouncement to his classes: ‘Should there be any who is a-citizen- of or is sympathetic with totalitarian states, I vouch that I shall do all in my power to teach them to the best of my ability in the fields in which I am competent.” sl Mr. Anderson devoted an entire lec- ture hour to a discussion of the im- plications of Professor Bridgman’s statement. He considers it extremely dangerous, especially since it comes from one of the most eminent scien- tists in America. If Professor Bridg- man’s example is followed, the prin- ciple of denying knowledge to citizens of totalitarian states may be extended infinitely to other realms of knowl- edge.

With the aid of the powers of heaven, hell and the Western Union they kept their audience delighted for the évening with a light-headed. review of campus characters in parody. Everybody had a good time. The audience was maintained at a pitch of raucous hilarity, star talent was brought to light, the animal song was safely preserved from the sopho- mores and the animal was without doubt the most climactic on record. A young fortune was realized by the posters, and several songs were in- troduced that may anticipate years | of service about the college dining halls.

Mr. Arnold point- ed out that the number of women employed in each of these fields in- creases yearly and specified as to what chances particular departments within each field offered, how much they paid and how to get in them. For entrance into any of these pro- fessions, Mr. Arnold emphasized the necessity of typing ability, the need, almost as requisite, for a »rudimen- tary knowledge of shorthand and the- willingness to start anywhere within an organization without hopes of a high paid job. Nowadays, since there is an increasing tendency to advance people from one department to another rather than resorting to outside - sources, Mr.- Arnold feels that. the © importance. of being sure “to get on the payroll,” despite the acceptability of the first _job, cannot be ove: empha- sized. ‘ -In the publishing: field ‘the most - numerays opportunities for women are offered in magazine departments; in the advertising business the posi- tion of copy writer has become in- creasingly important since more and more advertising is done by women with a view to women buyers; while in the radio broadcasting field rela- tively few wonien have as yet: obtained the more important executive posi- Coerennes on Page Two. — Two mee be THE COLLEGE NEWS (rence. — “THE COLLEGE NEWS (Pounded in> 1914) ? 2 WIT?S END Thanksgiving, Published weekly sant the College Year (excepting durin, Christmas and Easter Holidays, and during examination weeks ks) of Bryn Mawr College at the Maguire Building, Wayne, Pa., and Mawr Coll 5 . © * b Ree site pe $ THE COLLEGE NEWS Page Three Martha Graham -Evokes History in New Dance Continued from Page One as a whole is a fine intellectual con- cept. A dance based-on that concept, however, must necessarily express singly elements of emotion which are actually felt together. Therefore an intellectual dance lacks the directness of human experience. A dance that really depicted the suffering of the Spanish people would have to be much more spontaneous, much more emo- tional, much more savage, even, than Miss Graham’s calculated and elabor- ate Deep Song. It had occasional touching moments when some poignant gesture or simple movement showed what it should have been throughout; but as a whole it was not convincing. Martha Graham’s last solo dance, Frontier, was much less deliberate than either Deep Song or Sarabande. Intended to convey no particular the- sis or message, but merely @& sense of the. pioneer’s exultation, it was spontaneous and joyful, more like a traditional dance than the others. It also succeeded, unlike the others, in creating an atmosphere. With a single eager look or wide gesture of her arm, Miss. Graham surrounded. herself with vast plains. and. distant -mountains. When she settled back on her fence rail with arms about her knees and gazed fixedly into the wings, she actually appeared to be welcoming a new and real country. Frontier may not be the most impressive of her dances, but it is certainly the most charming, and judging from its re- ception, the most popular. The great “documentary dance” that closed the program was the most ambitious and elaborate of all the group’s efforts. As such, it showed their special virtues’ and defects much Patterned after an iacalaa saline’ show, it was based on five great Amer- ican documents, with a spoken and danced interpretation for each, inter- N.Y Bryn Mawr Club Miss Louise Holabird Wood, of Chicago, Illinois and Flor- ence, Italy, will give an illus- trated lecture, Italy—Yester- day and Today, at the New York Bryn Mawr Club on Mon- day evening, March 6. Buffet supper, preceding the lecture, - will be at 6.30 p. m. spersed with choruses, The strength of the idea lay chiefly in its reaffirmation of the dance as an interpreter of historical and con- temporary events. The _ individual dances, particularly the subtle and ex- quisitely woven Puritan Episode, all confirmed and exactly translated the words of the documents as they were recited by the Interlocutor. Even the Declaration, avoiding the usual senti-| ° mentality of such a celebration, was triumphantly beautiful as its chorus gradually rose and circled about a single static figure with her right hand clasped over the wrist of her out- stretched ‘left arm. The ideas of the dances, too, were immensely clarified and strengthened by the splendid costumes, excellently chosen color and strong sense of de- sign in all the choreography. This design was almost primitive in its hard brightness and clean directness, like a painting from Crete. It gave the pauses of the dances the brilliancy of a mural. It united the ragged and jerky ~ movements that. characterize too many of Martha Graham’s in- dividual gestures. The weakness of American Docu- ment lay primarily in the spoken ac- companiment.

A FREQUENT Anderson and Weiss Hit Bridgman Stand Continued from Page One visitors from totalitarian state would use scientific knowledge for destruc- tive purposes, ana has justified Pro- fessor Bridgman’s embargo on these grounds. “We might as well give machine guns*to outlaws,” he says, “as turn over further d@structive se- crets to nations on the rampage.’” In point of.fact, Professor Bridgman’s work does not involve “destructive secrets”; and his fear, of the misuse of scientific information is secondary to his desire to express abhorrence of totalitarian practices. Professor Bridgman, even while in- sisting on freedom for the individual, has stigmatized individuals who may have a sincere desire for knowledge. primitive, but this time with almost ludicrous results. As long as the In- terlocutor stuck to the actual wording of the documents, all was well, but hi§ original additions and emenda- tions were absurd. They were in- tended to be simple; the, trouble was that they were so simple that they were pretentious. There was no real need to say something like “This is a theatre. You are the audience. The time is the present.’? The result is not the strong and poetic speech of the primitive, but the artificial baby talk of the affected. In the larger sense, this is the chief criticism that can be brought against Martha Graham herself. * Als though primarily complicated, intellec- tual and subtle, she occasionally re- fuses to admit it, and tries to pre- tend that her dancing is a strong and simple art. As her particular style develops and matures still further, it}. is to be hoped that she will shed this childishness and use her rare and ex- quisite gifts fully and entirely for the perfecting of the greatest advances in her art since the days of Isadora ‘Dun- can. -E. M. P. WHATS YOUR WAY OF AVOIDING NERVE STRAIN ? PAUSE TO Pacifists! A:small informal group called the Pacifist Cell has been formed on campuseunder the auspices of Professor Sears Hof Haverford. As a group it has no outside -work as yet, but adheres to a strictly pacifist platform. ‘At present at its weekly meetings - the group is reading and discuss- ing Richard Greg’s Power of Non-Violence. He has so generalized his notion ‘of totalitarianism that he has extended it to every citizen of Germany, disre- garding the fact that even as German citizens they may be opposed to the totalitarian regime. .At the same time, he implies a dangerous distinc- tion between Aryan and non-Aryan Germans which may lead to the mak- ing of similar distinctions in the United States. By taking such, action, he. has batred the way to liberal-minded Ger- man scientists, taking away all hope Germany by access to the truth, In attempting to punish totalitarianism by denying it this access, he is de- feating one of the erids of science and of, learning, its universality of intercourse. Germany’s intellectual contacts are being gradually reduced, and Professor Bridgman, in making this step, has reduced them still farther. Of the few citizens who are permitted to leave, the majority are scholars, the very men who might be influenced by democratic and scientific ideals, and who could bring them back to Germany. Dr. H.

Democracy Requires Freedom of Thought Continued from Page One rights, but as an ironclad safeguard of the right to criticize. According to Judge Allen, there can be no last- ing governmental progress without unrestricted criticism. The need of guarantees to personal freedom might - never have been realized if the press had not been able freely to discuss “that need before the Constitution or its amendments were drafted. “Group and race,“ said Judge Allen, “should ‘advance through the perception of error and the reyelation of truth.” When the Constitution was drafted, Hamilton and Madison considered that -a bill of rights was unnecessary. But four of the states which ratified the Constitution actually included pro- visions for freedom of speech and of the press in their bills of ratification, and accordingly the ten‘ amendments which constitute our Bill of Rights were added to the original draft. The realization of the necessity for religious freedom was a result of the long and bloody religious wars which had torn Europe | during the two pre- ceding centuries “and the intolerance and prejudice which had been. intro- duced by Calvinism. This intolerance was rigidly maintained in New Eng- —jand—during—the-seventeenth century,| when. membership in the Protestant Church was necessary for a place in the community. The famous Blue Laws held that all persons not of the established Church should be cast out from society. Massachusetts had a theology which made religious belief the test of citizenship. The first person to preach religious toleration—_was—Rog Williams, of Rhode Island,- who established liberty A ef conscience as a fundamental law. A’ subsequent Rhode Island act was the forerunner of the first amendment to the Constitution. It stated that “all men may walk as their con- sciences persuade them—all men in the name of their God.” This act was the first expression of the growing realiza- tion that religious freedom was of the utmost importance in a well-ordered and liberal nation. Freedom of speech had its inception in the English Revolutionary Settle- ment of 1689, which guaranteed Par- lidment’s right. of criticism of the monarch. In the new, free life of the colonies there was a corresponding freedom of expression. The power. of free speech as conceived by the colo- nists and enunciated in the Bill of “Rights was not seriously limited until the World War when the Espionage Act of 1917 protected the government E.

This act is still enforced to protect the government in time of war, when individual liberties are, of necessity, curtgiled. The only way to maintain those liberties unmolested, asserted Judge Allen, is to do away with war. As finally decided by- the Supreme Court in the Schenck case in 1937, free speech is unrestricted unless it to war. arising today are derived from the maintenance of the federal espionage acts. Freedom of the press found its first champion in Milton, who maintained that without it there can be no last- ing freedom in the state. In 1776, Virginia brought into its constitution the statement that freedom of the press was “a great bulwark” of Amer- ican. liberties. When the Constitution was. drafted, such state constitutions as this were drawn upon. The only drastic limitations ever laid upon this and Seditions Act of the Adams ad- ministration but these were later re- pealed by Jefferson. " Freedom of speeth and publieation, although not absolute, are carefully protected by the Constitution. “The deep-seated desire for completely un- abridged freedom of expression,” Judge Allen, “has not yet awakened in Americans.” FANSLOW “Tailored Clothes’ ———— Stetson Hats for Women | Braemar Sweaters Seville Theater Bldg.
