reer VOL. XLVIII, NO. 9 ARDMORE and BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1951 Copyright, Trustees of Bryn Mawr College, 1951 PRICE 20 CENTS Whipple States Present Tasks Of ‘Point Four’ Technical Assistance Helps Devastated Countries “Where Point Four Is Going Today” was the subject about which Clayton E. Whipple, Chief of the Food and Natural Resources Projects Staff, spoke at the second Alliance Assembly on November 19, in Goodhart Auditorium. To clarify to everyone where Point Four came from and is now. before discussing where it is go- .ng, Mr. [Whipple explained that it originally was the fourth point expounded by President Trumar. when he began his second term. Point Four is the sharing of tech- nical competence by the peoples of the world. Mr. Whipple pointed out that such co-operation among people should be obvious to us around Philadelphia, where help to others was the foundation of the city. The program at present is be- coming more active every day. Ap- ‘propriations and committees were late in being completed and yet by September of this year forty- three countries had filed requests for assistance; work has been ac- tually begun in thirty-six of them. There have been requests for 690 projects in technical assistance of which 178 are started in fields ranging from forestry to govern- ment service. In the carrying out of these requests, Mr. Whipple stressed that this is more a pro- gram of co-operation than assist- ance; and if it is assistance, it is mutual. There are cases, Mr. Whivple explained, in which the countries with whom we are work- ing are spending more than we are. A most important step in inter- national. understanding is the “training grant” to foreigners, gradaate students, teachers, and leaders seeking to clarify their ideas. Eight hundred and sixty- two grants have been issued. Mr. [Whipple stated that two- thirds of the world is in dire need of the assistance of the Point Four plan because hunger, disease, and poverty reign. While these people are rebelling against their life, they must be shown that there are other roads besides those leading to communism; aid to them in ed- ucation, health, production, cr clothing can point the way to the free nations. That this is not a give-away plan, Mr. Whipple made clear, but it is a plan of assisting nations to reach their goal. It is even true that too much money could lead to a deviation from that plan and would then defeat the purpose. Mr. Whipple stressed more train- ing of people here in the United States because technical assistance plus practical experience will aid in the better development of the world. © eae, ot He alsé cited as an example tre Continued on Page 5, Col. 2 A conceited The Moor ¢ with great M.

On November 27, 28, and 29, canvassers will ask each undergrad student to -contribute $7.50 toward a $3600 goal. The an- swer to- the prevalent question ‘where does. the money go’ is that it is divided among: Blind School Reading, ‘Weekend Work Groups, ‘Norristown Hospital, Coatesville Veterans Hospital, Dance and Show for Maids and Porters, Bryn Mawr Summer Camp, Summer Workshop in Workers’ Education at Rutgers (formerly the Hudson Shore Labor School), and the Soda Fountain. Because the purpose of the League is to help other people, it hopes everyone will be aware of the need present in every branch of its work and give! The amount asked for looks ominous but when spread over paydays throughout the year the individual sums seem less foreboding. You can pay by cash or check as well, and after you have given your share, watch the chart in Taylor Hall for the progress made, because you have helped the League drive toward its goal.

The rule means that students who drive cars while in residence must do so when a parent, guard- ian, or close relative who assumes family responsibility is in the car. It is not expected that students will sign out for an afternoon or an evening to the nearby address of a friend in order to drive. No student should plan to return to college after an absence in a car to be driven by herself and left at a nearby residence or garage. In case of emergency, any stu- dent may consult the Dean about exception to the rule. Green To Discuss Essential Problems Is America going Communist or Christian? Can we God? Is there any relation be- tweer religion and politics? Why be good? Who is responsible for this world’s difficulties? The Reverend Canon Bryan Green, rector of St. Martin’s Church, Birmingham, England, will speak in Goodhart auditorium at 3:30 on Sunday afternoon, De- cember 2, on these questions. Bryan Green, who has a series of missions. his visit to Bryn Mawr, he will hold a ten-day mission in Conven- tion Hall in Philadelphia, sponsor- ed by the Philadelphia Council of Churches and the Protestant Epis- copal Church of the Diocese of Pennsylvania. He preached last year in Boston, and the year be- fore, delivered a series of eight sermons in Washington, D.

Shelly Outlines History, Values (f Corps Women Corrects Wrong View About Feminine Services ‘Coionel Mary Jo Shelly, head of the Women’s Air Force, spoke Monday night in Goodhart Hall on the subject “Women in the Armed Services: Passing Fancy or Per- manent Fact”. Miss McBride, in introducing Colonel Shelly, recalled her own speech at assembly last year con- cerning the efforts of the Armed Forces toward having women work more effectively. She informed the audience that Colonel Shelly was a commanding lieutenant in the WAVES in 1942. During the war she was an assistant in the women’s naval reserve training program. For these services and. her work in directing the demobil- ization of the women’s forces af- ter the war, she received a secre-~ tarial citation from Secretary Fore restal. Colonel Shelly said that she chose this title because it suggest- ed se well the questions in the minds of all college women today. “Though I have no desire to re- cruif you in person, I do wish to reeriut your understanding”, she stated. There are too many mis- conceptions about the service ex~ isting today. “There has beer difficulty in finding the line that exists between the civilian and the military ever since the Irst atom exploded in New Mexico”, said Colonel Shelly. There is now a great concentrated effort throughout the American ranks to work for peace. All ac- tion in the military is based upon hope for peace and preparation for war. Colonel Shelly gave a brief his- tory of women in the armed sery- ices.

Dr. Wright first came to Bryn Mawr in 1892 after being graduated from Girton College at Cambridge University, England, to study under the late Pro- fessor Paul Shorey, a Greek authority. Professor Shorey went to the University of Chicago, and it was there that Dr. Wright received her doctor of philosophy degree in 1895. Dr. Wright taught at Bryn Mawr from 1897 to 1933 and was made a full professor in 1921. During this period, she published a textbook, “A Short History of Greek Literature from Homer to Julian” which is stiil a standard text. Ever since her retirement from teaching in 19338, she worked in cooperation with the New York Academy of Medi- cine. She translated from Latin medical treatises for the medical profession, the most recent being a sixteenth cen- tury work. : Dr. Wright was the widow of Dr. J. Edmund Wright, professor of mathematics at Bryn Mawr, who died in 1910. We record with sorrow the passing of Dr. Wright, one of Bryn Mawr’s most outstanding teachers and scholars. Two’s Allowed Rules which concern walking at night, either on campus, to and from the station, or in directions away from the vil- lage and those which deal with visiting in other halls, have been posted in every hall. The Self-Gov rules have always stated that students ‘should walk in groups after dark; this statement is reiterat- ed, adding a new suggestion that students who walk on cam. pus and particularly down to the Skinner Workshop also geo in pairs. This rule, like all Self-Gov rules, is one that makes sense. It is not merely arbitrarily imposed at college—it is just as sound wherever one lives in any kind of environment. It should not be necessary to state these precautions as law, each student should always voluntarily out of her own good sense observe them. The student is under a strong obligation to know and obey these rules. She must realize that-her safety is a mat- - ter.of concern not only to herself and to her parents by the college, to which responsibility for her well being is tempor- arily transferred. In these circumstances personal caution becomes at the same time consideration for others. Letters fo the Editor Librarian Praises Reserve Room Cooperation; Lists Specific Regulations For Most Efficiency To the editor of the Bryn Mawr College News The Library Council question- naire, the recent editorial in the News, and the suggestions placed in the box in the Reserve Room have raised again the question of an Open versus a Closed Reserve Room. The success of our present system depends entirely upon the complete cooperation of those who use the Reserve Room. I am con- vinced that all of the trouble aris- es from the actions of a very few who selfishly put their own needs above any curtailing rules. The majority of the students are hon- orable and careful to observe Lib- rary regulations. However, there are a number of small ways in which many stud- ents are thoughtless in their use of the Library. It might be well at this time to consider ways in which we may all need to reform. In sending these suggestions to the News I should like to point out that I am not bypassing the ex- cellent Library Council but am doing so with its complete ap- proval. 1. The Reserve Rooms and the steps leading to the Reading Room are not places for gossip. 2. Library assistants working in the Reserve Room do not know as- signments in various courses, In order to locate books on reserve, they must know author and title. Students are urged to pay careful attention when the assignment is given. 3. The Reserve Room is not a source of supply for pencils. As many as six have disappeared in one week. This may be listed un- der the title of petty annoyances! 4. The Library assistant will be glad to locate long cards which are filed and does not enjoy having others . shuffle through them or grab out a while batch of 800s for example. ‘Nor does she want cards refiled by others than herself since they are often or even regularly misfiled. Cards which have been rem«-ved for resigning or reserva- tions should be placed in the square brown box. 5. Since the rules for the use of the Reserve Room may change from year to year or may become more specific, it is highly recom- mended that even the most ex- perienced users of the Reserve Room read each year the current rules which are always on the bulletin board. It is disconcert- ing to be met with blank looks when reminding students. that only one book may be used at a time in the Reading Room and that overnight books may not go out until 9:30. Incidentally books reserved for the night may not go out until 9:50 if in use at 9:30. Students should also be sure to consult the Reserve sheet before going off blithely with books for the night. 6. In the Reading Room Re- serve Desks are available for Seniors. Official Reserve Desk signs may be obtained at the Main Circulation desk. Students are urged to keep their desks tidy and undecorated. 7. I should like to enter a strong plea that students show consideration for the needs of their fellow students in reserving books. The week-end before a quiz is no time to take a book out for the week-end. Nor is it neces- sary to reserve several copies of the same book at different hours during the day thus insuring a steady use of the book at a time when the book is at a premium. Some students forget that only one book per course may be re- served for the night though sev- eral books may be taken if not previously reserved. In regard to week-end reservations it would be considerate to reserve the boox for Saturday night only and only sign it out for the week-end if on Saturday night it has not been reserved for the Sunday hours. In closing I should like to point out that the so-called disagreeable Library rules are made to insure a fair use of the books. They only seem confining when they in- terfere with individual whims. It is unfortunate that there is not more general rejoicing when the book is there when it is wanted. This I am glad to say is the rule rather than the exception. Sincerely yours, Doris H.

Shelly’s Career Combines Educational and M ilitary Occupations Colonel Mary Jo Shelly was sworn in as second Director of the Women in the Air Force June 12, 1951. She was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, February 17, 1902, was graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Oregon in 1926, and received a Master’s degree from Columbia University in 1929. From 1930 to 1932, Colonel Shelly served as graduate assist- ant in education at Teachers Col- lege of Columbia University while doing preliminary work for a Ph.D. degree. From 19382 to 1935, she supervised the teacher training unit at New College, a part of Columbia University. She became assistant to the Dean of Students at the University of Chicago in 1935, and in 1988, went to Bennington College as educa- tional assistant to the president. In September, 1942, she was commissioned a lieutenant in the WAVES, as one of the first 12. WAVE lieutenants, and was pro- moted to lieutenant commander and commander. As Assistant for the Women’s Reserve to the Di- rector of Training of the Navy, she directed the expansion of WAVE schools from one officer and three enlisted schools to 82 different training schools located throughout the United States. She helped to organize and set up programs for the schools, In March, 1945, Colonel Shelly was appointed Assistant for the Women’s Reserve to the Director of the Planning Division, Demobil- Continued on Page 6, Col. 5 Sutton Evaluates Five ‘Imperatives’ “The most subtle thing a teach- er can give his pupil is ‘a genuine reverence for life’,’ stated Dr. Willis A. Sutton, addressing the private school teachers of Mont- gomery County, Wednesday, No- vember 14, at their evening meet- ing in Goodhart Auditorium. Superintendent of schools in At- lanta, Georgia and onetime preach- er, Lir. Sutton asserted that the movement of the world’s history is forward. He attributed this to the salutary -effects of education, and enumerated the “Great Amer- ican Imperatives” which he stated must be taught to prevent the dy- ing out of the human race. These imperatives are: a regard for human life, love for the soil, an appreciation of a good home life, a realization of the moral backing of the universe, and finally, the obligation of the teacher to instill wonder into the minds of his pu- pils. Of the first American impera- tive, applying to all of mankind as well as Americans, Dr. Sutton said, “A love of peace must be inculcat- ed in our children or we will be destroyed”. ‘We are hardened to war; murders have become com- mon and atrocities and accidents are accepted without much dismay. Amevicans have applied inventions to means of death, and we do not regard life or teach this to the child. ‘The most valuable lesson’, he concluded, “is the one, ‘Thou shalt not kill’.” Leve for the soil was the second imperative stated by Dr. Sutton. “The wealth of this country de- pends on the earth”, he continued, “and we must teach this to little children who love the earth”. Dr. Suttcn considered it more import- ant to the wealth and character of the country to love the soil than to ba able to read. “No one who really loves the soil is bad”, he stated. He called the farmers the “makers and builders of the world” and pointed out that we only ma- nipulate what they produce. “Land is basic in life”, he said, “and we must not neglect it”.

Saren Merritt A.A. Repres. ........ Wendy Ewer The next American imperative is to teach the child that there is no substitute for a good home life. The modern trend is the disinte- gration of families and this ten- dency must be reversed or we per- ish. The elementary teacher must use his great power to teach child- ren to build homes and family life, and to live a straight clean life within the group that is the center of all society. Continuing his list of impera- tives, Dr. Sutton said we should teach religion in its broadest ex- panse and values in the schools. Children should be shown that the principles of democracy do not stem solely from political theory, but are based largely on the He- brew-Christian ethics, The knowl- edge of the direct connection of democracy with religion should be imparted to school children.

This problem is an extension of a deeper and more distressing misunderstanding: the antagonism between the artist and the. critic. This‘ opposition is artificial and unnecessary since to exclude either aspect from one’s education would be a great mistake. The fact that there is only a limited amount of time is the cause of the problem, for to be an artist or to be an art historian. takes more time than the average student has. Some educators think, there- fore, that the student’s time should be spent exclusively learn- ing to be either an historian or an artist. Dr. Sloane disagrees with this view and believes that both his- tory and. ¢reativity are valuable ina fully rounded art education, as none of the reasons for which art is taught in a general educa- tion should: be disregarded* com- pletely. Excluding the provision of a background for a professional art career, these reasons are: 1) to facilitate the discovery of the “very large and important” values that are inherent in per- sonal creativity, Even if the cre- ated object is not of great ex- cellence it produces the “peculiar and vivid pleasures” of creation which enrich life. 2) To develop appreciation of art. Just what appreciation is is unclear, but Dr. Sloane would like to think of it as “a by-product of either creative activity or histor- ical activity or a mixture of the two.” 8) As an historical discipline in the humanities, for it is in art that men have put their best foot forward through the ages. The above usually results in develop- ing a reasonably good critical sense and a desire to try creating, which brings the process around to a full circle. Although school children should be made continuously aware of the arts and encouraged to de- velop a natural taste for the fine arts by a process of osmosis, a Yale Grads State Religious Question On Thursday evening, November 15, in the Common Room, Bob Mc- -Lean and Kelly Clark (Yale ’51) gave an informal talk on religion Both boys are at present prepar- ing for the ministry at the Vir- ginia Theological school. In order to face the ultimate questions of life, Kelly Clark said that we must first answer the question—“What think ye of the Christ”? He suggested that, after examining the claims Christ made, we are faced with the choice of thinking him a madman—or the Son of God, as he claimed he was. He stressed the need to work out our answer to this question now, in order that we might be able to meet our personal problems and an insecure world with the. neces- sary faith and courage. | Beb McLean followed with the story of a group of the forty or fifty boys at Yale who became very interested in religion while at col- “lege, Both .he and Kelly, were . 5 >Continued.on Pagé 4, Cel. 5 serious study of the history of art should be zeserved for the college level. In the pre-college years, then, emphasis should be on the creative side. This train- ing is invaluable, for it may pro- vide an interest and avocation which the students will maintain throughout life. Creative instruction should be begun in the primary grades, and not allowed to lapse in the second- ary schools because this often allows self-consciousness and a cramped style to enter, which is an obstacle to later creat've ef- forts. In the last years of second- ary schools it would be desirable if, without the sacrifice of creative expression, some formal training in the elements of design, color, etc., could be introduced. Rauchenbush Sees Book Gap Bridged On Wednesday, November 15, Miss Esther Rauchenbush, Dean of Sarah Lawrence College, spoke in Taylor before group six of the fall meeting of the Private School Teachers Association of Philadel- phia and vicinity. Miss Rauch- enbush chose the subject, “Litera- ture for Individual Education.” Miss Rauchenbush emphasized that individual education, a direct student-teacher relationship, is the ideal type of education in any field, including the field of litera- ture. Many schools have been un- able to do this because of the strangle-hold which college board examinations have held on them. This subordination to a stand- ard college entrance tion has forced teachers to hand out long lists of what are consid- ered “good books” to the student. It has also led to stereotyped “survey” courses, which rush the student through a large mass of literature of the ages, with an emphasis on the chronology of the books rather than on _ the books themselves. What Books? The question that an English teacher should ask, continued Miss Rauchenbush, is “what do we want a study of Eng- lish literature to do for the student?” rather than the normal question of “what books oug these children to read”. “There (is not any one measurable, describ- able body of material that one person should know,” she _ as- serted. Books should not be forced on the young student, since knowl- edge “comes when it comes” and cannot be _ forced. Literature should be studied as an art to give the students a chance to feel and respond to it. Young stu- dents must know that what they read is important to them. There is often a great difference in what students read for “fun”, and in what they read for “literature”. Children in their middle and later adolescence are very inter- ested in themselves and in what is happening to themselves. There- fore the chief concern of a teach- er in planning her course, is to be interested in the individual stu- dent and to be willing to begin with him at his level, no matter how inferior. Before these stu- dents are faced with really diffi- cult books, Miss Rauchenbush stressed, they must be given proper introductory works. A very inferior book, with a theme which interests the student, examina- may excite him.enough to make) =.” Continued on Page 4, Col. 3 PSTA Group Two Claims Pechan Bill Threat to Liberty Group Two of the Private Schoo] Teachers Association considered “The Pechan Bill, a threat to the liberties of all of us.” Miss Dor- othy Dandois introduced Mr. Eric Johnson, headmaster of Friends’ Central School, who in turn pre- sented William Rahill, the vice- president of the American Civil Liberties Union in the Philadel- phia area. Mr. Rahill traced the history of the bill, Senate Bill No. 27, from its inception by dentist Pechan, at the behest of the American Le- gion, through its present state, as it awaits a House vote on Decem- ber 10. At first, the bill, officially the Pennsylvania Loyalty Bill, provided for an oath that one did not belong to any of a list of sub- versive organizations which the State Attorney General later re- fused to compile. Lacking the teeth that would have been provided by the list, the bill was amended after it was passed through the State Senate, with little publicity, and into the House committee on State Gov- ernment. The heart of the bill was in the reversal of American tradition: a person is considered disloyal until he is proven other- wise beyond a reasonable doubt. An investigation can be made with or without a complaint, and, in the latest form of the bill, a secret report given to the State Attorney General, and the person then discharged. After the dis- charge, a review is held, and the discharged tries to prove that there was no room for doubt, The bill gained new impetus after a speech by Governor Fine before a group of veterans on July twelfth, and when an open hearing finally took place, only about a fourth of the opponents were heard. The bill was voted out of committee secretly in Sep- tember, and unless there is a great change in opinion, will pass both House and Senate in Decem- ber. Mr. Johnson then spoke of the effects that the Pechan Bill, if made a law, would have on the school system. Private schools would not be affected, but the sub- jection of public school teachers to the principal’s investigation would stifle even the freedom to criticize foreign policy or discuss controversial issues. Teachers in states with loyalty acts have even been reprimanded for advocating inter-cultural education with Latin America! Confidence in teachers will be lessened, and the profession will lose its appeal for good young people. The honest and freedom- loving will‘ suffer, Mr. Johnson stated, for communists like spy Gold have been instructed not to associate with any questionable or liberal organization. All opposition to the bill has been labelled “pink” by the: sup- porting veterans’ organizations, and, paradoxically, it is almost impossible to oppose the bill with- out seeming unloyal. For this reason, and for political ambi- tions, the legislators support the bill, and are afraid to show any opposition. Communists would caught, and it would be impossible to fight subversive groups from within or to oppose government policy because of the growing em- phasis~on:guilt by verbal associa- tion, punishable as an indication of disloyalty. | settee ssa NEWS PARTY! not ibe! Especially Contributed by Rhys Carpenter, Professor of Classical Archaeology It may seem a bold venture to add. one more translation of the Iliad to the great array; but even the most cursory comparison of Richmond Lattimore’s new version with any of its predecessors will make one aware that it belongs to the world of 1950. If it dates itself (just as Pope’s and Bryant’s and Butcher-&-Lang’s are dated to their respective literary gen- erations), the date here is our own. “I must render Homer into the best English verse I can write; and this will be in my own ‘poetical language’, which is most- ly the plain English of today,’ says the translator; but he agrees with Matthew Arnold that Homer Northrop Probes Inflation Problem ‘Dr. Mildred B. Northrop ad- dressed a section of the. privatc school teachers’ convention on the subject “Interpreting the Current Economic Picture,” Wednesday, November 14, at 4:30 p.m. Miss Northrop pointed out the enormous government expenditure in defense measures as the major underlying reason for our present state of inflation. About 85% of the federal budget for the 1950- 51 season was spent for past wars and current defense purposes. As long as defense efforts continue at the same or an even greater rate, they will require large amounts of money. “Inflation will continue as long as there is no way of reducing the total spending by civilians, in- dustry, and government,” Miss Northrop. With the shift to war goods, fewer goods are avail- able to civilians; this is the heart of the inflation problem. One way to-prevent consumers from spend- ing as much as they have spent in the past is higher taxation. Government control on credit, wages, profits, and. direct price control could check inflation. But these measures are difficult to en- force unless the public accepts the necessity for them. Uncontrolled inflation in the United States has _ international repercussions. Because this coun- try is the largest single producer in the world, it has an economic responsibility to fulfill. Inflation in the United States means that other countries must spend more money for our products, a dis- turbing factor in balancing their national budgets. The whole world is dependent upon _ this country for certain imports, and foreign countries are getting less and less for their money. If our economic status reaches a state of hyper-inflation, our interna- tional relations will be seriously impaired, because it will be im- possible for other nations to buy from us. Miss Northrop pointed out a grad- ual break-down of the concepts of economic nationalism and show- ed that United States policy has become more closely integrated with the economics of western Europe. She mentioned the call for help and support to increase the standards of living in under- developed areas as a part of the total strategy of defense. We have taken preliminary steps to answer this call. Miss Northrop concluded her lecture by saying that the people must decide how willing they are to bear the burdens of taxation and other controls, because other- wise we can expect even greater inflationary . pressures, than. we have had in the last eighteen months. said, Rhys Carpenter Praises Lattimore’s Up-to-date Translation of the “Iliad” is not merely “plain”, but rapid and direct as well, and for that reason is vivid and not turgid, lithe and not clumsy. (Above all, —and this is the translator’s greatest pitfall—he is very sel- dom monotonous). Poetry cannot be ‘properly reconstructed as prose and therefore Mr. Latti- more uses verse; but he employs “a free six-beat line” that is as pliant as prose, unencumbered by rhyme, uncomplicated by tradi- tional poetic phraseology” Whether the result is any closer to the feeling of Homeric Greek (which was intensely artificial for all its limpidity, and sonorously deliber- ate for all its speed of movement) would be difficult to say; for in the last analysis there is no mod- ern equivalent for the epic hexa- meter, no English that has the quality of Homeric Greek, and hence no possible literal recreation of Homer. But this is no argu- ment for not presenting him afresh, since one may well ask what percentage of the American population now reads ancient Greek, and add that it is quite conceivable that a very sizeable public will read Mr. Lattimore. If we take some famous pas- sage, familiar to all classicists for its marvelous cadences and haunt- ing bleak emotion, pitched to the high heroic vein, such as Achilles’ pitiless reply to the wretched suppliant in the riverbed, whom he refuses to ransom, we may see how much that is great poetry Mr. Lattimore’s “plain English of today” has to jettison, but also how he avoids all turgid rhetoric, mannered phrases, and specious coloring :— “Poor fool, no longer speak to me of ransom, nor argue it. In the time before Patroklos came to the day of his destiny then it was. the way of my heart’s choice to be sparing of the Tro- jans, and many I took alive and disposed of them. Now there is not one who can escape death, if the gods send him against my hands in front of Ilion, not one of all the Trojans and be- yond others the children of Priam. So, friend, you die also. (Why all the clamour about it? Patroklos also is dead, who was better by far than you are. Do you not see what a man I am, how huge, how splendid, and born of a great father, and the mother who bore me immortal? Yet even I have also my death and my strong destiny, and there shall be a dawn or an afternoon or a noontime when some man in the fighting will Continued on Page 4, Col. 1 SPORTS by Emmy Cadwalader °53 Te hockey season at Bryn Mawr ended the week before Thanksgiving with the third team game against Drexel. Bryn Mawr played exceedingly well, and was victorious with the score of 5-0. The Hall hockey matches were also concluded this week, and after a great deal of excitement Pem-~ broke East was proclaimed the winner. The hockey tea was held on the evening of Nov. 14 to give the team letters, and to elect next year’s officers. That night a sad farewell was said to Mrs. Coul- ton, who was to leave the follow- ing weekend for England. In looking back over the season ‘¢ may be seen, that ‘is’ yc2r's teams did quite well for them- selves. The first and second var- sities won two games, tied two, and lost one, and: the third team won two and lost two.

He let go of the spear and sat back, spreading wide both hands; but Achilleus drawing his sharp sword struck him beside the neck at the col- lar-bone, and the double-edged sword plunged full length in- side.

The: confidence of the people must be ours as we step in to offer our ideas. In a brief question period fol- lowing his address, Mr. Whipple said that requests for technical as- sistance have come from all Latin American countries except Argen- tina, and from all Arab countries, —most countries except European ones, who are worked with by the E.C.A. Many countries would rather work in co-operation with the U.N. committees. Mr Whipple made clear that progress was being made in coun- tries co-operating under Point Four and it is only a matter of time until those seeking help will find it. many Americans are not being people of their times.

IRC To Sponsor Husain Pakistan Education Talk Continued from Page 1 ticular. For, with the 25% of the United Service Fund which the Legisla- ture voted to give to the World Student Service Fund, Bryn Mawr is going to set up an alliance with the Dacca Univ. in East Pakistan. The United Service Fund com- mittee, which draws up the slate of amounts to be given to various charities, felt that the $1000 which will go to WSSF would best serve if it were all sent to one univer- sity, and were followed up with an exchange of letters and pack- ages, in the hope of establishing a friendship. Tie Alliance Board and the IRC have taken over this project. Con- sulting with officials of the WSSF. they found that the need for aid was greatest in Asia, and espec- ially urgent in India and ‘Pakistan. Of the universities in these two countries, ‘Dacca seemed most in need of help. There only 25% of 7000 students have housing, and the other 75% are forced to live like nomads, un- rolling a straw mat wherever they are at the end of the day. Health conditions there are extremely serious. Bryn Mawr’s money will be used either to set up a student hostel or a clinic for tubercular students. Dacca University greatly needs this material aid; but more impor- tant from the point of view of Bryn Mawr, there is, in Pakistan, a genuine interest in America: what we think, why we act the way we do. Bryn Mawr therefore has the opportunity of explaining itself to Pakistan students and, in turn, coming to know their atti- tude owards world events. The purpose of Dr. Husain’s lec- ture will be to help familiarize Bryr. Mawr with the political and social conditions of Pakistan, and to snow their bearing on the edu- cational problems of Dacca Uni- versity.

These stores of energy are being used at a rate far in advance of their for- mation and eventually will disap- pear if they are not placed under a type of conservation. Of all coal mined, three-quarters of the amount has been mined since 1900, and half since 1920. This means that there has been an increase of four percent per year in the amount of coal mined. One-half of all the oil removed from the earth has been removed since 1937, a yearly increase of eight percent. Iron figures are almost“parallel to coal figures except that they show an increase of seven percent per year. It is estimated that there wera six million tons of coal in the or- iginal deposits.
