Throughout the _ performance, ene could not help but marvel at both the genius of Thornton Wild- er-and of the actors_and actresses for expertly combining the fantas- tie and the fatuous. A number of times, it was shocking to find one’s self laughing unconventionally in the midst of an emotional crisis, and then again in the process of a laugh sobered by a new thought. The sets were colorful. The lights and sound effects were pro- fessional. The technical elements of the production were so superior that the audience was conscious of them all, without its attention be- ing detracted from the integrated whole, A, real attempt was made by the actors also to achieve this Ellen Harriman identified _her- self completely with the role of Mrs. Antrobus, whose sole interest was the protection of her family, Continued on Page 5 ¥ Delegate Chosen For Student Conf.

Brit- ain’s contribution to the future will come through her develop- ment of a compromise between the extremes of capitalism and com- munism in a “soeial service state,” explained Mr. Ernest L. Woodward in a discussion of “The Future of the British Empire.” Mr. Woodward stressed two pre- conditions to a constructive future for the English, the creation of fairly permanent peace through defensive armameni and effective machinery for collection. security, and the establishment of a solvent economic position, depending chief- ly on economic stability in the United: States and greater inter- of goods, particularly through lower U.S. tariffs. In. the future of Europe Britain can play a constructive role as a leader by example for the western European democracies. Whether Russian policy is based on cynical aggression or on fear of capital- istic attack Britain will lead either as the one European nation that Russia now fears or as the creator of a semi-socialistic, semi-capital- istic state which Russian com- munism would accept as inherent- ly peaceful. Within Britain this new social system is being developed through the transfer of responsible political power from the middle classes to the workingmen. This shift is to be effected both through the prac- tical experiences in self-govern- ment which the trade unions offer and through the new educational developments in Britain. The British Empiré, Mr. Wood- ward pointed out, is definitely be- ing restricted, and in the future will exist largely in the African colonies. The British must with- draw from India now since they could only continue as a _ police state.

Instead, they are often ignored or frankly avoided. : Criticisms of the conduction of meetings, it seems, should be directed more at the students passively attending meet- ings than at those directing them; for the lack of interest in and attention to the issues brought up are the primary caus- es of “long dragged-out” meetings. Hall meetings are never called unless issues of importance to the student body are at stake. ; Criticism can well be extended to include the prevalent “bad voting habits. ”"The attitude expressed in irrelevant quibbling and in the remarks we all have heard such as “Let’s agree just to cut the meeting short,” and “I don’t know what we’re voting for, but I’m voting against it’ are not conducive to good government. They lead to government not by the students, but by the path of least sciaionraad, without thought or purpose behind it. We should like to see fewer bridge games and more at- tentive thought whenever voting is going on. Let’s make the hall meeting the effective organ it was designed to be and is capable of being.

There is a look of ice in professor- ial eyes, a certain coldness of un- dergraduate feet. The library door squeals more often and we nightly lay down our heads upon our pil- low more gingerly, as one might deposit upon a hot stove a balloon rather too full of air.

But unfortunately, too many other- wise intelligent people are neglect- ing their obligations to be con- scious of the gravity of the prob- lem of atomic’ energy. World- consciousness, political, economic and social-awareness today, de- mands awareness of the implica- tions of atomic energy. It is a factor vital to each of our lives and we owe it to ourselves and to the future to be thinking about it now. * For these reasons, therefore, we want to organize an intercollegi- ate committee to formulate and carry through educational pro- grams. in every field touched by atomic energy. On Saturday, No- vember 9, a meeting was held at the University of Pennsylvania, under the auspices of the Associa- tion of Philadelphia Scientists, the ‘|purpose of which was to organize the huge student population in the Philadelphia area and to discuss plans as mentioned above. These programs will include forums, de- bates, films and discussions led by outstanding authorities in the fields of economics, politics, soci- ology and science. But we cannot get anywhere with our plans un- less we have the full support of our student body. What does Bryn Mawr promise us? Rosemary Gilmartin, ’47. Limit of Two Tickets For Commencement Deplored To the Editor: While we realize that this may not be considered the most appro- priate time at which to criticize a college policy toward the alumnae, it is our opinion that the Com- mencement problem deserves prompt attention. It is not fair to restrict the Seniors to two tick- ets each. If there is one day in the four years that we attend Bryn Mawr that belongs to the Senior Class and the graduate students receiving degrees, it is Commence- ment. For us, our family and friends, it represents one on the bigger milestones that we pass; it is the end, for the majority, of formal schooling and the passing, to use a cliche, “over the Alps into Italy.” By limiting us to two seats apiece, the College is, in effect, prohibiting the presence of any members of our family other than our parents. To take from us the seats that might go to our broth- ers, sisters, or other relations, in ‘order to give them to the alumnae who are “reuning” is not only un- ‘just but is poor policy.

I realize that this is sud- den news for you, but the depart- ment is entrancingly whimsical. Mr. Sloane, for instance,,has the dearest little ‘box- with a peephole in one end of it. He copied this machine from one made by a man calle@ Alberti, a Renaissance ar- chitect. ' ‘ine purpose of this box is the demonstration of perspective, not mathematically, but: practically.

The hole is on the end, the object, (in this case a checkerboard) is laid on the floor of the box. There are slides which are removable, and are placed between the peephole and the checkerboard. They have holes cut in them of varying sizes rep- resenting different ‘vanishing points”. To make it simpler, Mr. Sloane has stretched black sewing thread from the. peephole to the corners of the checkerboard, which Current Events Common__Room, November _18. Stressing the importance of. find- ing a common basis of understand- ing with Russia, Mrs. Manning spoke on the tofic, “Russia and the United Nations”, at Qurrent Events. Although there is no immediate threat of armed combat, Mrs. Man- ning stated that it is very difficult to find a meeting-ground with Rus- sia. However, she feels that the situation today is not at all com- parable to the situation which ex- isted in Nazi Germany. It is chief- ly Russia’s tactics and not her ul- timate aims that are-—making agreement so difficult. Mrs. Manning feels that a firm stand on the part of the United States can break down Slavic re- sistance in some cases, but that such a policy may be carried too far, She also stated that the import- ance of the veto power has been greatly exaggerated. Since the only hope for permanent and sat- isfactory settlement of interna- tional problems is . unanimous agreement, and since no solution could be otherwise efficiently and peacefully maintained, the veto power is actually only a technical- ity. However, Mrs. Manning crit- icized Russia’s use of it as a threat to stop discussion. She emphasized that a patient attempt to find a basis of under- standing with Russia is essential to permanent world peace.

Haverford has a four piece dance orchestra, who call themselves “The Four Salt Peanuts.” They played for the dance held after the Saturday night performance of “The Skin of Our Teeth,” and sponsored by the Undergraduate Association and the Haverford Vie Committee. The gym was decorated in a blue and white motif, blue and white around the running-track. The lanterns went romantically out ; toe se end of the evening, dripping wax on the floor, and pro- viding a comfortable dimness for the Bryn Mawr girls and _ their dates. The proverbial punch of ginger ale, grape juice and orange juice Nas served by two mysterious white-coated—waiters. However, the newly-formed ov- chestra was the focal point of the evening. John Hauser played the piano, Stan Thawley the trumpet, Ted Hardy the drums, and Jack Galey the tenor and alto saxa- phones (alternately)! They were strictly “vout” in dark glasses, and played the newest songs with gusto. Over Emphasis On “Half Truths” We are surrounded by “all the alternatives, all the jittle gods, which people are setting up _ in- stead of the true God,” declared Mrs. Edward Huss Jones (Louisa E. Russell, B. M. ’38), Director of Christian Education at Church, Washington, Chapel on November 17. Because to which he gives his allegiance, various half-truths are commonly exalted to the position of gods. Two “blind spots” arise from faith in a natural progress inde- pendent of God. Not only does evil progress as rapidly as good, but also evil does. not “grow into good” by itself. : Knowledge, especially science, constitutes another much used al-! ternative to God. Knowledge in itself cannot be the answer to man’s needs; yet, if “it goes deep enough, it can lead us to God.” The false worship of success is an example of the idolatry which occurs when a partial truth is set up as the whole God. Similarly, women may try to make love and marriage their God, but “one can achieve maturity in marriage only against the background of the real and living God.” Nor can self- realization, often termed “human- itarianism,” replace God, for the brotherhood of man has no mean- ing without the fatherhood of God. No one of these alternatives to God is really apart from Him. All belong to Christianity, yet in or: der to set themselves up as gods, Bees deny God. Devotion to these ideals must be a part of devotion God, but no ones... em r perp Him; “only by loving God ean your heart, soul’ mind, and strength find its outlet and satis- faction,” . New Plans Made By Drama Group Students interested in drama will be given an opportunity -tv try their hands at all phases of the art under the auspices of the Independent Drama Group. This organization is an outgrowth of the Experimental Theater which was begun last year but because of lack of time was unable to un- Chrigt | Ds .0.n Ndertake any major project. The object of the Independent Drama Group is to give everyone with an interest in the theater a chance to read and direct plays, act the parts that have always ap- pealed to them, and increase their knowledge of theatrical work as a whole. The members of the group plan to act out scenes from vari- ous plays, and sometimes a group of scenes all centering about a sin- jgle theme, and then discuss and criticize them. They are also hop- ing to be able to put: on some sort of dramatic presentation at Arts Night. B. M. Beats Drexel: Teamwork Weak “The Fv Mawy first hockey team registered another victory on Thursday by defeating the team from Drexel 4-1. Three goals were scored in the first half—one by Drexel, the other two for Bryn Mawr, by Ellen Ca- rey and Sheila Eaton. Sheila Ea- ton made two more well played goals, with the help of Marjory Shaw, right wing, in the second half. Both teams--showed a marked lack of teamwork, but it 279s de it “that.

Speakers at this meeting will discuss the possibility of giving Big May Day again. Mrs. Man- ning and Miss Oppenheimer, as members of the faculty and as alumnae, will present both sides of the question. Louise Ervin, *A9, will give the pros and Nancy Mar- tin, *49, will give the cons from the student point of view. Mem- bers of this class were chosen to speak, because the Junior Class will bear the major student re- sponsibility if there is a Big May Day in 1948. Movies of past May days will be shown at the meeting, and there will be an opportunity for questions and discussion. The stu- dent poll will decide whether or not there will be Big. May Day next year. Its results do not, how- ever, affect the possibilities of Big May Days further in the future. The May Day question must be decided this fall. If it is passed by the students, it must be brought up for discussion before the Fac- ulty and the Board of Dirctors, and plans must be started.

They belong to Ellen Mary Jones, ex-SPAR, and Kath- erine Rourke, ex-WAVE, both now Bryn Mawr freshmen. Ellen, delighted with Bryn Mawr College, its students, its courses, and its friendly atmosphere, is studying Biology, Spanish, Eng- lish Composition, and History of Art this year. She hasn’t yet de- cided on what her major is going to be, but she “kind of thinks” she’d “sort of like” to work in a museum after graduation. She is enjoying all of her courses, and, although She finds Biology very difticult, she feels that it is neces- sary to a rounded education, and is glad to have the opportunity to fearn about it. Enlisted in the SPARS in April of 1948, she served until January of,1946, and was commissioned in Ex-SPAR, Ex-WAVE Enthuse Over First Year at Bryn Mawr 1944. It was her job to investigate cases of misconduct among merch- ant seamen. Ellen wanted to con- gratulate the Bryn Mawr under- graduates on their maturity. “Ev- eryone seems so aware of what is going on in the world,” she de- clared. Katherine Rourke’ enjoyed her thirteen months in the service very much. Before that, she was a re- porter for the Philadelphia In- quirer, and she hopes to return to the same kind of work after graduation. Katherine finds Bryn Mawr her first choice, living up to her expectations. She thinks all of. her courses (American Govern- ment, Biology, English -Composi- tion and Intermédiate French) are extremely interesting, but she ad- mitted that she is “not very good in science.” Katherine bemoaned the loss of her faculty to memor- ize. Aside from that, however, she is not having too much difficulty in getting back to studying.

L. Gray _Thé twenty-fourth Rare Book Room éxhibit, currently on dis- play in the Library, is featuring several specimens chosen from the collections left to the College last fall by Howard Levi Gray, former head of the History department. Dr. Gray, who died on Septem- ber 16, 1945 bequeathed his entire library of approximately 650 rare books on history, literature, and art to the Bryn Mawr College Li- brary. In addition, he left his collections of prints and valuable pieces of Chinese art to the Art department. Prominently displayed are the five Incunabula, books printed: in the year 1500 or before. Probably the oldest object on exhibition, however, is a Chinese vessel which dates back to approximately 2000 B. C. Other very old pieces being ' displayed are the Chinese tomb figures from the Han To T’ang dy- nasties. Their date has been set at approximately 200 B. C. to 800 A. D. A painting on silk from the Ming dynasty, which is dated at about 1400. to 1600 A. D., is also on display in the Rare Book Room. Other objects on exhjabie-. ->>sen. from Dr. Gray’s Chinese art col- lection, includé*.,. 2 tly Chinese jades for ritual use, Chin- ese porcelain vases, and Korean celadon bowls.

The American Friends Service “Man seeks with talons Of the mind Future Hope and Terror : The children, Gladys and Henry, representing the hope and terror | for the future, were played by Sheila Tatnall and Ned Coale. Un- fortunately, Wilder, engrossed with the end of the war in the last act, seems to forget the character of Gladys, so that Sheila, a little wary in this portion of the play, did not play the part with the same real understanding or bound- less enthusiasm with which she played the little girl so success- fully in the preceding acts. Ned Coale injected the boyish aspect into the part of Henry, and yet was at-the same time especially convincing as the self-tormented ‘Cain, the murderous unresolved element of mankind. Geraldine Warburg spoke her lines with a voice of doom that did not lack perfect diction. Although her use of gesture was not always natural;" she was sinister and threatening as the fortune-teller. The effect of the silver and green make-up of her sharp features was just another detail of excellent technique. Varied Response in Audience The principal. actors and ac- tresses_and the subordinating cast seemed to make a real and pro- fessional effort to put over the mood of the play to their audience, which seemed to ‘respond to dif- ferent elements Saturday night than in the first performance. It was unfortunate that since so many people had had an essential part in producing and acting in the play, that at least the last few of the seven curtain calls did not include the whole cast, in spite of the professional effect of the “fam- ily portrait.” It was the one time that formality could have been sacrificed. Skilled, Directing by Thon More than to anyone credit is due Mr. Thon, whose casting, and expert directing with particular attention to such details as ges- ture and split-second timing, made the performance a success. With- out him the admirable cast, work- ing with a particularly suitable play such as this, could never have done: so well. i Committee sponsored a Conference for College Age Youth at Swarth- more last week-end, which was at- tended by Ellen Cary ’47. This was one of the A.F.S.C. projects sponsored on campus by the Bryn Mawr League. Ellen reported that there were several interesting speakers among whom were Wil- liam Hubben, editor of the Friends Intelligencer, who asked for a re- vival of active liberalism rather than —merely~-passive-—theorising with so much sentimentality as was’ evident between the wars. Ellen felt that his main theme was that everyone must work for free- dom with social action on a large scale. A second speaker, Wilfred Wel- lock, British journalist and Labor M. P. spoke on economic systems, Saying that the Industrial Revo- lution led to struggles for. markets which in turn led to war. He add- ed that unemployment was impos- sible in Russia if the original plan were carried out. However, since 1930 incentive wages have been paid with discrepancies growing between wages as in the capitalist systems. Another speaker, Bayard Rus- tin, a young man outstanding in peace and intercultural organiza- tions spoke on the Future of In- ternational Cooperation. He be- lieves that government comes as & by-product of peace which is brought about by unity. He pro- posed four elements to offset the pessimistic view that America should either conquer the world or be destroyed by the atomic bomb. There were (1) Disarmament; (2) Economic freedom; (3) Limitation of sovereignty by delegation to a central authority; (4) Spiritual unity around a common ideal. Just Flown From Mexico!

Dean Taft toured the West in the in- terest of the drive and spoke in cities there, St. Louis, Kansas City, Chicago and Cincinnati. There was a concert with violin playing, sing- ing, and eurhythmic dancing all performed by the faculty. Big May Day netted $5,000. There were en- dowment dinners, and luncheons such as one addressed by experts in_ Applied Psychology, and~ visits from such notables as Mrs. Her- campaign for the presidency.

By May the million mark was passed, and the complete totals ’ added up the following September were $2,191,346.56. The goal had been reached, and an exhausted Déan Taft was married in July and recuperated on a honeymoon in a bungalow in the White Moun- tains, before joining President Thomas in London.

Every member of the Paganini quartet is in complete sympathy with every other member, without which sympathy the perfect timing and rhythm. necessary in a good quartet is lost.

The adagio. movement was lovely, opening with a duet he- tween yiolin and viola and broad- ening into a trio with the second violin, until the deep bass notes of the cello joined to form a remin- iscent, drifting Song. The rest of the quartet was less classically melodic, employing much of Bar- tok’s characteristic dissonance and studied counter-rhythms, particu- larly ‘similar to those in his Mik- rokosmos: for the piano.
