Perhaps it was her assurance and poise that conveyed this impres- -sion, or perhaps it was the quiet dignity with which she stood by the piano ‘waiting for the accom- paniment to begin. Even before she had sung a note her contact with the audience was established; at first a feeling of suspense be- fore she began, and then a settling back, with the realization that the artist had you in the palm of her hand, The listener. found himself not only looking forward to each new group of songs, but to each song within the groups as well. This came as a result, not only of Miss Brice’s interpretation, but also be- cause she built her program witb great.subtlety, playing up contrast as the dominant factor. A singer must devote much time in learn- ing to build a program. It is a very difficult task, since it involves not only personal reaction but au- » dience reaction as well. The first group of selections consisted of two songs, the Can- tata Schlage doch, gewunschte ’ Stunde by Bach, and Handel’s Fur- ibondo Spiro il Vento. Here was the decorated. music of the Ba- roque period, contrapuntally com+ plicated and difficult to deliver. Yet Miss Brice made them appear deceptively simple. Perhaps this was because she seemed to sing them so effortlessly. The dynam- ics and florid quality of the Han- del song must have been difficult to master, and presented a fitting contrast to the more pensive Bach selection. revealed a rich tone, and the na- ture of the piece was such that it enabled her to get her voice for- ward in preparation for the diffi- cult Handel song which followed. In contrast to the complex and contrapuntal music of Bach and Handel, Miss Brice presented nex! four songs by Schubert. Here was an abrupt change. This was ro- mantic music filled with melody, naive though it may pe. She adopted the mood of each song, and in so doing transported the audience with her. At the same time she completely captured the simplicity which is so intrinsic a part of this composer’s music. There were times, however, not only in this group, but in the oth- ers, when Miss Brice reached the .

It is just a fragment of the usual table discussion at Radnor Hall, whose cosmopolitan atmosphere made one of its poor native inhabitants wonder the oth- er day whether she is studying at an American College or just sit- ting at an ence. Yes, as to nationalities we are 15 and though we do not claim to be excessively modest it may be that our voices have not yet been heard in every corner of the cam- pus, for which reason we hasten to introduce ourselves. Some of us seem to have already adapted ourselves to the new sur- roundings so well that it may be difficult for you to tell whether we are foreigners or Americans, but that is not the case with all of us and definitely not with the girl whom I happened to meet first de- scending the stairs in Radnor. With her suave manners and her nice peculiar dress she is a typi- cal representative of her people. Let’s hear what she has to say: “My name is Sonja Chih and I come from Kunming, China. You may have seen me walking around the campus and if you have asked me something you may have no- ticed that I don’t speak too much. I'll tell you why.

Cutler, “is that. we-. have not found the great affirma- tions of religion valid in our own axperience.” Since the beginning yf recorded history men have sung of hope and of a significance to life, and such beliefs were crystal- lized in the Judao-Christian doc- trine of the kingdom of God, Rev. Cutler explained. He emphasized the fact that only by accepting this doctrine as a reality and re- lating it. to our own experience can we find the necessary urge to grapple with the problems of re- ligion, race, and nationality, fac- ing us today.

M. Connes, a close friend of Mlle. Parde, saw her for the last time upon his release from a Ger- man prison camp. Praising her charm, courage, and natural teach- ing ability, he described her career as a professor at Bryn Mawr Col- lege, as director of the Lycee at Dijon, as professor at the Univer- sity of Chaumont, and in the Near East, where she observed the French school facilities. Deeply affected by the war, Mlle. Parde joined the espionage organ- ization Reseau Brutus after the death of her parents, and worked with it to obtain and transmit facts about German troop’ movements. -|In August of 1944, however, she }and her secretary, Simone Blessi, were imprisoned by the Nazis, and, in January of 1945, Marcelle Parde was killed in the camp. of Ravens- -| bruck. This year, a memorial service was conducted in Dijon in memory of Mile. Parde, and a plaque, bear- ing a fragment of her own com- position, was dedicated to her memory:..““A country cannot die-as long as its youth are ready to die for it,”’ Dijon during October of 1944; wit- nessed the arrival of the American troops, and was responsible for solving the many problems which arose between the military forces and. the civilian population. “He emphasized that such clashes were inevitable in a town as overpopu- lated as Dijon, and under the ab- normal conditions which prevailed after the war. However, mutual gonfidence and respect were soon established between the American officers and M. Connes, who speaks English fluently, and was even called “Dijon’s American Mayor” by the soldiers stationed there.

Page 4 Burch Discusses Universal Theory At Philos Lecture In the third of the lectures on philosophy in honor of Theodore and Grace De Laguna, Dr. George B. Burch delivered a paper on “The Problem of Universals.” Accord- ing to Dr. Burch the real problem lies not in finding the true theory of universals but in discovering to what sort of universals each of. the theories applies. Dr. Burch first explained the classic formulation of the problem as stated by the third century neo- platonist, Porphry. “The possible solutions of the problem,” Dr, Burch continued, “that this formu- lation suggests are: (1) that spe- cies..are.immaterial..things~ outside the individual; (2) that they are immaterial things within the in- dividual; (3) that they are mater- ial things, and (4) that they are mere concepts.’”’ Dr. Burch show- ed the relationship “between these possibilities and the four ancient schools of philosophy; the Platonic, the Aristotelian, the Stoic, and the Epicurean.

Goodhart, Tuesday, November 5: “The problem facing the stud- ents in Europe is not just a lack of hostels, dormitories, or complete medical attention but greatly a problem of moral regeneration,” stated Dean Hottel, the Dean of the University of Pennsylvania. Dean Hottel, speak- ing at a mass meeting for the pur- Women = at program of the United Student Service Fund, has recently return- ed from a tour of Europe and spoke of her experiences there, pointing out the tremendous lack of medical supplies for tubercular students, and the lack of educa- tional sources in general for the mass of University age people. Dean Hottel pointed out the im- portant work that chalets for re- cuperation and education have been able to do, and stressed-the fact that the WSSF is supported by all religious factions as well as inde- pendent Student Organizations. The universality of the need, cou- pled with its ultimate importance, should make. every person feel obliged to do his part said Dean Hottel in pointing out that) ‘“‘We are trying to be world minded, and here is a chance for individuals to help.” Nancy Morehouse, ’47, who spent the summer in Europe with the ISS, explained more $Specifically the importance of the Bryn Mawr program of supporting the Chalet des Etudiants at Combleux. ‘‘The two pressing demands among European’ students,’ said’ Miss Morehouse, “are: First, the need for readjustment from the nega- tive character of resistance work struction; the other is the almost pathetic desire--of~ these” students to reestablish contact with stud- ents of other countries.” Pointing out that Combleux can answer both these needs, she urged the stud- ents at Bryn Mawr to aid in this project. Miss Morehouse stressed * also the feeling of personal friend- ship present at Combleux © which becomes “The feeling of a meeting of different backgrounds on an equal basis.” News Quartet Blossoms Forth In Unique Modern Disharmony By Betty-Bright Page, ’49 The News Quartet, as it was originally called, is a campus mu- sical group which cannot be ig- nored. Indeed, the fam@ of these revolutionary “singers” is rapidly spreading. Representing the more exclusive unharmonious element oi Bryn Mawr College, the organiza- tion »has already auditioned for Mrs. De Varon, and other music | lovers in the vicinity.

The tonal qualities and the style of the Quartet are as unique as their repertoire. Showing com- plete versatility all the while, they aim for “anything but harmony, except when it’s accidental.’”? And they achieve this goal in every sense of the word. A sense of hu- mor and immunity to any unity of ‘tant prerequisites for ‘membership.

Bryn Mawr offers special advantages to faculty such as teaching in the graduate school and opportunities for indi- vidual research, to which we'are indebted for the high stan- dards of our professors. This in turn reflects upon the stand- ing of the college so that it is essential that their work be continued and expanded both from the point of the kind of education and faculty we wish to have. The faculty salaries established tin 1920 are obviously in- sufficient today, so that many capable people are prevented There are two alternatives open to a private institution: either to lower the standards of teaching, or to receive State aid, a dim prospect from teaching under the present conditions. > pe Sy Grad’s Letter Suggests More Originality In\Year Book To the Editor: N#>: The belated appearance of 1945’s Year Book at a time when the class of 1947 ‘is presumably mak- ing plans for the publication of its owh book next. spring prompts a public expression .of a long ac- cumulating feeling of ennui pro- duced by these records of previous college generations.

Library To the Editor: I should like to support the plea in last week’s College News, sign- ed by nearly fifty students, for bet- ter ventilation in the Library. My experience has been in the West Wing, where Faculty members without Library Offices can occupy carrels, The carrels have radiators in them, registers opposite them, and the full benefit of the afternoon sunlight. You can turn off the radiator, but not the sun or the general heat supply. Opening the window blows the papers off the desk, or in quiet weather hardly relieves the prevailing stuffiness. The carrels seem to have been, des- ignated for the very aged who need unusually warm temperatures and have retired from active mental work, ; The Indian summer of recent weeks may make the trouble seem merely temporary. It is not. Try a carrel in winter with the full steam on in the Library; try the sunny spring afternoons. The mis- takes of architects in the past can- not be wiped out now. But any- thing that can be done to lighten the effects will be very mueh ap- preciated. Keeping Grandmother Cosy and Drowsy is nice in some places, But we do not go to carrels to knit and nod. Sincerely yours, Nov. 4 ,1946 Bettina Linn Current Events Predicting the development of, a liberal third’ party and the dis- solution of the present Democratic party, Mr. Richard Bachrach spoke off. November 4. He feels that, since the conservative elements have captured the Democratic Par- ty, there is really no clearly-de- fined issue in the present election. Important issues, such as the poll tax, inflation, and the housing sit- uation have been avoided, and at- tention has been focused upon the relatively minor meat crisis. The two parties are also agreed about international affairs, and this un- fortunately prevents the voter from directly influencing foreign policy. Mr. Bachrach feels that the only outlet for liberal opinion would be a third party built around the or- ganizational base of the National Citizens’ Political Actions Commit- tee, whose large membership would facilitate the development of such a party. Liberals, stated Mr. Bachrach, have been put at a disadvantage by the attacks. of Communism which have been lev- eled against them. He _ recom- mended that they ignore such at- tacks and concentrate on becoming strong in their own right. Among those present were Miss Laurence Stapleton, who objected to the opinions expressed by Mr. Bachrach. She feels that a third party would take too long to be- come firmly established, that it would be weakened by the CIO- AF of L conflict.

In answer to these problems, there was the general recognition by scientists that “we*must take some responsibiity for the way in which scientific discoveries are used, that we could see no effect- ive sdefense against the atomic bofnb and that an atomic warfare would decimate civilization as we know it.”’ Finally, that “if scien- tific research were to come under military control and be subject to security, our scientific progress would be slowed tremendously, if not stopped.” Accordingly, scientists started engaging in nationwide education- al and political effort. grammes said that, in the question of atom- ic energy control, “we are dealing with a’ problem in ethics . rather than in physics”. interests fhe sentient ‘on one hand and the - religious leader on the other.

The first team won, 1-0, over Swarthmore’s varsity in a hard, fast game, exhibiting excellent co- ordination and drive. There was no score in the first half; Bryn Mawr forwards had the ball in Swarthmore’s striking circle most of the period, but were unable to get it past the goalie. The ball was played quickly and_ played high, with considerable scooping and stopping of shots in mid-air. The Bryn Mawr goal was made in the second, more closely fought, half by Sheila Eaton, center for- ward, but there was further fight- ing in Bryn Mawr’s striking circle, and several well-directed shots for goal were turned back by Darst Hyatt, goalie, to preserve the | Owls’ lead. The-Bryn Mawr de- fense played a particularly fine game. Marjorie Shaw’s swift play at right wing made her alley a spot of great interest; the game was ultimately a victory of team- work, however, and showed im- provement in co-ordinated, as well ws* individual, playing. The second team game was won by a larger margin, 4-0. The, team showed a powerful attack and did not lose the _ offensive throughout the game. Are you an S.A.

Senator Fulbright emphasized the need for continuing liberal education in American colleges to develop great- er breadth of viewpoint in Amer- ican citizens. The present need, Senator Ful- bright feels, is for better eduéa- tion in the primary and secondary schools. To encourage this to its fullest extent he is strongly in fa- vor of federal aid to education. If the colleges are to prosper, he de- clared, a universally higher stan- dard of preparation in the second- i; ably. the|° y ary schools must be developed.
