XLIX—NO. 2 ARDMORE and BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1952 Copyright, Trustees of Bryn Mawr College, 1952 PRICE 20 CENTS Miss McBride Stresses Need For Principles | Freedom of Thought Trains Students For Society “To use a phrase we have heard quite often this summer, I would like to take a little time to dis- cuss a few things with you,” said Miss Katherine McBride on Sep- tember 30 in Goodhart Hall at the first assembly of the sixty-eighth academic year. After giving her audience some facts pertinent to the opening of the college, Miss McBride proceed- ed to point out how many people spend much time considering how to vote, but never go back to the fundamentai issues behind why they vote as they do. You need experience to understand why, she] ' said, to be of service in the direc- tion of peace and freedom—-a di- rection which we all would surely choose. No ivory tower, whether in the form of the granite of Taylor or a pattern of thought can give any security or ease from conflict; you are a part of the times. Of what manner of times are we a part? As the elder Mr. Cadbury of Eng- land prayed in one meeting in the midst of heated argument, “O Lord, we’re in a fix.’’ Only experi- ence will teach you what function is yours in this world which to- day is in such a fix. Necessary Quality The tendency of the American educational system to supply a course for every need can be a misleading fallacy when you come to the problems of how to live in dangerous times. Here not knowl- " edge alone but maturity of experi- ence is necessary. There are two priorities we can set high above us. First is the experience of independence which is a basic principle of our college. No one knows as well as the stu- dent the extent of independence |} she can be allowed. independence in work and thought is basic for your contribution to Continued on Page 4, Col. 3 ‘| ren, Miss .McBride emphasized that] | Hebel.

Song Mistress: Gloria von Pictura Illustrates and Connects Tales of Artists’ Work and Lives by Ellen Bell, ’53 The movie Pictura, successfully combines the arts of film making and of painting. Its subject mat- ter is some of the paintings or parts of paintings of certain art- ists of the last five centuries whose work lends itself to this sort of treatment. The artists’ names are Bosch, Carpaccio, Goya, Toulouse-Lautrec, Gauguin, Grant Wood. Their paintings have been animated, activated, and connected by use of the camera to form a sequence of events; either a story depicted in one painting such as Carpaccio’s fairy tale painting >f Ursula, or a glance at the coun-|° tries and lives of-the artists. In any attempt to combine orig- ‘inally unconnected incidents to ‘form a coherent sequence of ‘events, there are bound to be cer- tain incomprehensible leaps, cer- tain vague passages; but to coun- 'terbalance this there may be at- tained a new understanding of the ‘subject matter, and perhaps some- thing is added to it. So it is with this film, which is a conglomeration of paintings, sorted into dramatic sequences. For one who does not know the periods of Goya, for ex- ample, it might be hard to under- stand the leap from Spanish coun- tryside to the very animated Continued on Page 4, Gol. 1 Come On and Join;.

This exhibit will be discussed on Saturday. The idea of a Pakistan weekend was conceived last spring, when several groups in the school con- tributed a total of $1500 to Pak- istan, and more specifically, to the University of Dacca. There was also a book collection for the Uni- versity. To make the contribu- tions seem less remote, to make the purposes and policies of Pak- istan clearer, the Alliance planned this weekend. Dr. Norman Brown, an author- ity on the Near East, now at the University of Pennsylvania, will be here, as will many other schol- ars and specialists.

Goodhart Hall. : Ranging in accent from a Broad- way apron opener to a strictly tropical number (which some heard previewed at the Freshman Dance) Wambi the Jungle Boy, the show promises much entertain- ment, as well as much new music. Never lacking in variety, Opening Soon manages to look into the antics of the Foreign Legion and to cavort with Shakespeare and his wierd sisters; it even allows the audience a side-stage glimpse of an extravaganza par excellence. Included within the cast are such interesting theatrical landmarks as a burley-queen, a serious class- ical drama student, a singer left over from Gay Nineties fame, an ingenue, and a playwright, to say nothing of a recurring scenery man with a potted palm. The plot centers around the somewhat haphazard production of a musical revue and, if we can find that final element of theatre, a producer, we'll be OPENING SOON.

Bryn Mawr has revealed itself an institution. stormed by the frenzy of return. Out of this panorama which may have dazzled your first impression, you must wonder how the serenity of normality can again emerge. Amidst all these preliminaries, one unchanging fact remains. Bryn Mawr is a place to which all of us have come in order to benefit by all associations and acquaintances. From you who can not only instruct us as students but also guide us as individuals, we look forward to new and stimu- lating friendship. You will add to our numerous avenues of thought; we believe that within this broad scope of learning we are finding a key to clear thinking. - Who are we? We are the six hundred students respons- ible for the chaos that arose during your introduction to Bryn Mawr. We are the screams of reunited roommates and the shy inquiries of the newcomers. We are your problem children of the coming year. Who are you toward whom we look with such expect- ancy? You are Faculty newly come to Bryn Mawr. To those who administer you are a chosen addition to an outstanding group of instructors. To those who instruct, you are re- spected and welcome colleagues. To us who learn, you are not just new faces in a department, but are an additional source of information and understanding. -. Why’s The Fire? “In Case of Fire .. .” most of us take such notices for granted, assuming that adequate care will be taken of. us, should emergencies arise. It’s a big assumption. And it means no responsibility on our part. Each year the college makes expensive changes for our benefit: erecting smoke barriers, new fire escapes, special exit doors. At the same time it is our responsibility to take our own preventative measures. Tossing a glowing cigarette into a waste paper basket is not only careless, but also dangerous. A building could go up in flames, the result of a cigarette not complete- ly, extinguished. To create an awareness of the potential dangers that exist through our negligence, and to offer best measures for eradicating these dangers, this'is National Fire Prevention * ‘The college goes to great seins to protect us.

Despite any. indica- tion from polls, there is still a large independent vote which has not yet taken a stand for either party. Although both candidates started their campaigns on a high moral plane in August, neither has been able to retain it in the in- creasing tension due to lack of confidence on both sides. Eisenhower’s assets in the cam- paign, according to Mr. Dudden, are his great reputation as a mil- itary hero and the intangible de- sire among many people for a change the administration. Stevenson has to his advantage twenty years of Democratic suc- cess, the prosperity enjoyed by many people during that period, and the habit of voting democratic, which many have now formed. He has the drawback, however, of be- ing comparatively unknown and tending to speak above the heads of his audience, although he re- ceives an appreciative response from college professors. in Corruption ' Corruption is one of the main issues the Democrats must over- tome. Recently it was overcloud- ed by the Nixon case, but that seems to be well cleared. The problem of balancing the budget reduces to the question of which party would be willing to spend ee money on rearmament, since hat is the government’s greatest expenditure. Concerning Commun- ism, Opinions conflict between a fear of McCarthyism and a_sus- bicion of government lenience to- ward Communism. ‘The Korean war and the entire problem of Asiatic revolution will need great attention. Although the United Nations has provided formal support, the war is basi- cally an American undertaking, with the United States opposing Korean and Chinese Communists supported by Soviet Russia. ' Taxes and inflation have received much attention, but Mr. Dudden passed quickly over civil rights, tidelands oil, Nixon’s difficulty, and states’ rights as issues that have proven relatively unimport- ant. Students for Stevenson began their campaign with a prelim- inary discussion and_ election Monday night. Marcia Storch was elected chairman of this group, which will work on campus and assist neighboring Volunteers for Stevenson com- mittees to influence the local vote. The co-chairmen of the Philadelphia Students for Ste- venson and local representa- tives of Stevenson organizations addressed the group, explaining ‘the type of work they can do both locally and in Philadelphia. After discussing campagn ac- tivities on campus, the meeting elected national economy as the topic they would like to debate with the Eisenhower group in one of the two scheduled de- bates. sponsible for taking a date due slip and returning books on time. 5.

The Library Council Wednesday, October 8, 1952 THE COLLEGE.NEWS Page Three New Experiences In Administration, Teaching, Research Await Miss Bliss by Joyce Annan, °53 “This will be a year of new ex- periences”, commented Miss Elea- nor Bliss; new Dean of the Grad- uate School. Administration, teach- ing, and housekeeping, she added with an engaging smile, would all be comparatively new fields for} her. her, the new Dean has been busy getting settled in her home at 310 Middlebank Road and in her office in the Library. She plans to give a seminar in biology on “The Modes of Action of Anti-bacterial Agents”. Does Bryn Mawr Breed Spinsters? by Mary Alice Drinkle, °53 “Do Women’s Colleges Turn Out Spinsters?” asks Lynn White Jr., president of Mills College, in an article in the October issue of Harper’s Magazine. With a defin- ite “no” for his answer, Mr. White gives very encouraging statistics and reasons. “Spinster”, he says, is a word of unpleasant conno- tations anywhere, including women’s colleges. (This _ state- ment, incidentally, is proved to be true in the present. Bryn-Mawr undergraduate body by a move- ment in some parts to change the nasty word to “delayed bride”.) Because of this statement, Mr. White continues, many people — especially west of the Hudson River—are convinced that coedu- cation is the only answer. They consider women’s colleges as clois- tered places which reduce the chance of marriage for their stu- dents considerably. This, however, is not the case, Mr. White affirms. He shows that a survey conducted by the Popu- lation Reference Bureau among 60,000 women proved that 76 per- cent of the graduates, of non- Catholic women’s colleges mar- ried, against 73 percent of the co- eds. This 3 percent difference is more significant than it appears to be because of the natural dis- advantage in meeting men every day which women’s colleges have. Explanation Mr. White gives two explana- tions for this higher matrimonial rate. The first, he affirms, is of less import than the second. In co-educational schools, a minority of sorority girls have a much gay- er social life than the vast ma- jority of non-sorority girls. Since most women’s colleges do not have these exclusive organizations which put so much emphasis on social life, a larger majority do have dates. The chief reason, however, is “the difference in atmosphere be- tween such colleges (women’s) and coeducation institutions, and in what this difference does to a girl’s thinking about herself and her potentialities.” In coeducation men are usually in command in Continued on Page 6, Col. 5 ‘capacity, While at Johns Hopkins Miss Bliss was Assistant Professor of Preventive Medicine; her work, however, primarily has been re- search in the field of bacteria. chemotherapy. Here at Bryn Mawr, besides her work as Dean of the Graduate School and as pro- sessor, she hopes. to devote her afternoons to continued research in the field of antibiotics in her new lab in Dalton. Enthusiastic and friendly, the Dean answered all questions gra- ciously—even explaining the na- cure of antibiotics to. the News’ most unscientific reporter. With reference to the Graduate School, she reported that “as of Friday. } October 3, there are 137 students enrolled, including many instruc- tors, lab assistants, and wardens.” Miss Bliss, though here in a new is not new to Bryn Mawr. She was an undergraduate, class of 1921, and majored (na- ‘turally) in biology and chemistry. She also was a member of the Board of Directors for eight years. “And has Bryn Mawr changed Undaunted by the job ahead of | ™uch since you were an _under- graduate?” In answer to the in- evitable question, the Dean replied cryptically, “It has changed and gone back.” Then she explained that she referred to her old hall— Radnor—which changed its status after she left and housed the Graduate School for a number of years. Now, of course, the under graduates have taken possession again. Students Welcome Ministers at Teas “Get acquainted with our local ministers” was the purpose of the teas which were held in six of the residence halls at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday, October 1. Ministers from six local churches were in- vited to tea to meet students who are interested in their churches. In Pembroke East, the Reverend Mr. Johnson and the Reverend Mr. Aycock of the Episcopalian Church met students of that faith. Rabbi Berkowitz of the Jewish Syna- gogue was in Radnor; the Rever- end Mr. Smith of the Methodist Church was in Denbigh; the Rev- erend Dr. Mutch of the Presby- terian Church was in Rhodes; the Reverend Dr. Scott of the Bap- ‘tist Church was in Rockefeller; and Father Rowan of the Roman Catholic Church was in Merion. Starr Oliver, head of The Chapel Committee, said that she was very pleased at the interest shown by the number of girls who attended the teds. They were a new idea this year and the members of the Chapel Committee feel that the purpose was fulfilled. ENGAGEMENTS - Diana Gammie ’53 to Nathaniel Sulivan Wilson, III.

Besides Freshmen, a good number of upper classmen have come down to the practices. Miss Ennis, the hockey coach, chose the squads last weekend and has been preparing them for a game today with Beaver College. Many of the varsity of last year are back, and the new material looks good. This coming weekend of the tenth, sixteen hockey players from Bryn Mawr will go up to Mt. Holyoke for a hockey weekend. It is hoped that Miss Applebee will attend the weekend to coach the teams which will be there from various colleges. Plans are shaping up for the redecoration of what will be call- ed the Applebee Barn. Mrs. Paul, chairman, and her committee will meet soon to discuss uses for the building which is on the Scull property. It may be used for en- tertaining visiting teams or dates. Another idea would be a place for the Athletic Association Square Dances. Which brings us to the coming Square Dances to be held Friday evenings in the gymna- sium.

Jones and Mitchell Get Special Grants Two Bryn Mawr students have received scholarships from the Na- tional Scholarship Service and Fund for Negro Students. Evelyn Jones, a member of the class of 1954, and Joyce Mitchell, of the class of 1955, were among the eleven girls at eight eastern colleges to whom the scholarships were awarded. Ranging from $250 to $400 each, the grants enable gifted negro students to supple- ment aid already received from their colleges, but insufficient to meet their total needs. This plan directs the Agency’s funds to a greater number of students who need them. The National Scholarship Serv- ice, founded in 1947 by a group of college presidents, guides Negro students from all over the coun- try to admissions and scholarship opportunities in the non-segregat- ed colleges of the nation. This year, almost 800 students were counseled and referred to over 160 interracial colleges. MARRIAGES Ilga Brauere ’52 to James Fleser. Carey Dunning ex-’54 to Du- shane Patterson.

Since this year’s presidential election is such a controversial and important one, it is exceptionally urgent for all who are eligible to vote, including Bryn Mawr stu- dents, to take advantage of this opportunity. In most _ states, registration dates are now long past, but it is still important for no one to neglect to vote who is registered. Except in such states as Penn- sylvania where they do not exist, most of us can obtain absentee ballots in order to vote. You can get these by writing to the Regis- tration Commission in care of the city hall in the town from which you come. This election is history in the making. If you are eligible, vote! Tea Under Big Top Fetes Class of 1956 by Barbara Drysdale, ’55 A band? Playing at a tea? Don’t be absurd! But, delight- fully enough, there was indeed a band—a three-piece ensemble from Haverford — at the Freshman- Sophomore Tea with Haverford last Sunday at four. A clown, seals balancing balls, a carousel complete with horses and streamers, and many painted bal- loons were the decorations, aii done in bright yellow and red. «a circus was the theme—Step righ. up, ladies and gents, to see this year’s attraction, the Freshman Class. Crowds of happy people filled the gym, mixing, chatting, and cancing, to say nothing of their cnjoying the quantities of cookies and punch p.iovided for the affair. \fter the dancing, the band play- d college favorites for singing, vith the strumming assistance of vackie Lindau. As the-sign above the gym en- trance read,..Welcome, Class of 56!” \ Children Lovers, Come One & All! Especially Contributed by Emmy Taylor, ’54 This year’s super-colossal effort is being made to enlarge and quicken Bryn Mawr’s contribution to the Haverford Community Cen- ter’s afternoon program. Things have come to pass where even a little enthusiasm would be im- mediately noticeable, which would be fine, but insufficient. If our share in this work cannot amount to more than it has in the past, our fictitious participation might better stop altogether. This would be a pity for us as well as the Center. For here is an accessible and rewarding chance for anyone interested in group work with children; those consid- ering summer camp jobs, teach- ing, or further work with the Friends, would be foolish to miss it. The children range from about four to sixteen, the facilities are adequate, but leave room, not to say need, for plenty of ingenuity. The plan is to subdue the former riot and set up ah orderly after- noon program, with students lead- ing the activity of their choice or invention—provided enough people from Bryn Mawr aand Haverford come this year. Undoubtedly it will still be quite mad, and certainly great fun. It is hoped that anyone inter- ested who missed the meeting Tuesday, October 7th, will take advantage of the cards delivered in all the halls, and see Emily Taylor or Mary Jane Chubbuck for further information. ai / Page Four THE COLLEGE NEWS Wednesday, October 8, 1952 Pictura Overcomes Difficulties and Provides Enjoyable Approach to Continued from Page 1 sketches of bulls ani torendors, Or certain of Bosch’s figures, included in the story of the creation of the world, might prove only to blur the understanding of the art, even though the story is an old and well known one. But these faults are small com- pared with the clearness of the mood, portrayed by the camera which can animate and accentuate. For example, the quiet Iowa farm of Grant Wood, the flashing legs of Toulouse-Lautrec’s dancers, or the religious feeling captured in the in- terpretation’ of the Creation, have gained intensity through . being filmed in this unusual manner. Bosch’s large and detailed paint- ing of The Creation, shows in a simple archaic-like form the strong religious beliefs of an in- tense artist. The prehistoric emp- tiness, the gradual filling in of the living beings, and the chaos which followed are shown in the film in the way the occurences must have represented themselves in the mind of Bosch. In somewhat the same simple way, Carpaccio’s painting of the story of Ursula has been filmed. Spanish Life The periods on Goya’s life are portrayed by showing certain events which he knew of life in Spain. First we see the country- side, made even more rural and Spanish by the excellent back- ground music of the guitar, which is played and drawn almost sym- bolically throughout the story. In the country are the people who celebrate such events as the Car- nival of the Sardine, a reaction against the restrictions of that time. At one of these mass gath- erings. the camera very cleverly moves up and down from the tree tops to the ground and when the observer is thoroughly impregnat- ed with a vertical movement, we are shown a large cloth, held by women who have just thrown a man from it up in the air. Goya’s animated style of drawing is even more accentuated in his later sketches of the bull fights, show- ing both the bulls and the men in many positions, which when con- nected by the camera, practically make a movie. The story results in an ugly climax with the arrival of Napoleon. The atrocities of war are shown in many gruesome scenes, and Goya concludes his portrayal of the social history of Spain of his time with tense por- traits of the ruler, and finally by certain symbolic paintings explain- ing his summary of the situftion. Loneliness The lonely Toulouse-Lautrec’s day in Paris is also much enlivened by the camera. He starts out into the busy morning streets to see his favorites; horses and women. The narrator explains his envy of those who ‘have healthy strong bodies. He goes to the park, the theatre, the circus, and finally to the night club. Here the camera catches the Welcome To Our Newest Fall and Winter Fashions Appreciation of Art kicking movement of the dancers’ legs, the expressions in the dis- tracted faces, and as morning comes, the loneliness again, as cer- tain pale faces wait under street lamps before going finally to bed. The life of Gauguin is perhaps portrayed with the least inspira- tion. We see vaguely his desire to escape Paris and the life he has led until he becomes a painter. We see his poverty and self-conscious struggle to paint something dif- ferent, something free. His final escape is to Tahiti where he lives among the natives, and portrays their serene life and beauty. But before he dies he still asks, “Where du we come from?, what are we?, where are we going?”, and he dreams of his home. Grant Wood The American painter, Grant Wood, shows great pride in the neatness, wholesomeness and sol- idarity of his Iowa homeland. His painting style is, for the most part, smooth and precise, with a flat posterlike quality. The producers of Pictura have worked with the camera in a way for which we hope more often, in this era of quantity rather than quality of films. Despite the dif- ficulties encountered in trying to change paintings into movies, the effect is, for the most part, suc- cessful and provides an enjoyable approach to an appreciation of art. Besides Pictura, a movie on life at Tanglewood was also shown. Most inspiring in this was the young conductor who was hearing his music played for the first time. Also shown were scenes of the people at work, and of Kousse- vitsky conducting a rehearsal of the Overture to the Egmont Con- certo by Beethoven.

On the other hand, you ‘must take into account the opin- ions of others. The emphasis often found today on the need for conforming is an attack on reason as a method of understand- ing. Attacks like these will elim- inate the need for colleges and democratic institutions as we know them. “I think these attacks will not be successful because of our independent thought and action,” continued Miss McBride. Moral Vitality experiences in Isaiah Berlin defined the second quality as a “moral vitality” found in the American people. “Con- science could be cultivated,’ said Henry Cadbury; can too, added Miss McBride. It gives us fortitude to live through difficult times. In college we are called on to ‘become an active part of our so- ciety. We can tackle our assign- ments better if we look for the experiences of independence and moral concern in our lives. “The work of Bryn Mawr’s six- ty-eighth academic year now be- gins.” Faculty Join Forces, Spur Election Doings Continued from Page 1 tion.

Early in June all the preparations crystallized as twenty young Midsummer Players descended on the Grand- jouan household. Talents Lolah and Claireve had picked a group which combined talents ranging from master carpentry to ballet dancing, and ages from El- len’s ten-month-old baby to a sev- the ae enty-year-old (Glen Cove resident. Our days were spent in feverish | activity. Rehearsals ran from nine to twelve-thirty and from three to six, and, as soon as Pea- sie had risked life and limb to in- stall the lights, they started again after supper. Claireve designed all the costumes, which two young wives in the company worked over- time to execute. As time grew shorter, even the boys were hemming cloaks and dresses when not on stage. Peasie did a masterful job of lighting, es- pecially considering that she nev- er had the opportunity for a light rehearsal before the actual performance. Our audiences sat under the stars, facing a perfect Elizabeth- an stage composed of an apron that was the barn ramp painted in black and white perspective squares to set off the costumes and border- ed on one side by a rose trellis. 1 inner stage that was the area just inside the wide main door inclosed by an are of columns and a sky- blue backdrop, an upper stage that was a platform built behind the upstairs window, and side entranc- es from the connected garage and the gardens, The audiences heard Midsummer Playhouse Provides Poodles and Oul; Podner Tennessee Williams as a Western Actor the recordings of the original Glass Menagerie background mu- sic and wonderfully effective and haunting records of Elizabethan music for Women Beware Women. Parodies When we weren’t actually re- hearsing or having a banquet-size “tea break’, we sewed costumes, wrote publicity, made and posted signs, typed scripts, tried to learn lines, did K. P. duty, and changed the baby. Before the lights made evening rehearsal possible, we sang lovely old French ballads, watched our dancing talent per- form, and organized impromptu concerts with an orchestra com- posed of piano, guitar, tambourine, drumsticks beaten on the table, xylophone (Mme. Grandjouan), and “flute douce”’ (Monsieur). When performances had begun, Mme. Grandjouan would sometimes entertain the cast afterwards with side-splitting guignol shows par- odying us and our acting. And speaking of Monsieur and Madame Grandjouan—can you im- agine what an exceptional family it would be that would welcome twenty guests for a solid month— twenty guests who each required double doses of food, attention, and patience? Probably you can’t imagine the Grandjouans. And you won’t believe them until you know them. Baloo In the first place, they are not known as Monsieur and Madame, but as Baloo and Louva. Baloo rose at seven in order to walk to the bakery for our breakfast buns and bread, spent the morning working in his garden and sketch- ing the actors, and left at noon for the U. N.

Louva was usually to be found in the kitchen, where she cooked for her twenty players three times a-day (breakfast, lunch, and tea at first; breakfast, supper, and mid- night snack when performances began). She also fed a big floppy poodle named Carambole, an ex- pectant mother cat known as Mimi Moushti, a flock of doves, a bowl of snails, and a young screech owl who appeared in the kitchen during dress rehearsals for Glass Menagerie and who later made a practice of stalking along the) backs of the audiences’ chairs dur- ing intermission and hooting im- periously for food. In spite of the ‘fact that her living room, porch, and lawn were increasingly litter- ed with costumes, scripts, and props, Louva never lost the gay twinkle in her eyes and only now and then mentioned that none of Mme.
