Pope Discusses Music In Times Of Renaissance A Musical Renaissance ~~ * Rises At Court In Spain Miss Isabel Pope delivered the Class of 1902 lecture on Tuesday, May 4 in the Music Room. In her talk on the Music at the Court of Charles V, Miss Pope spoke of the flowering of music in Spain of the ‘Renaissance. With recordings, the double oc- tet and Mr. Goodale presenting ex- amples of the music of the period, Miss Pope told of the new impulse given to this art under Charles and] P) Isabel, a There were two disparate ampetta .| system to go into effect, however, of this music, for Charles lived in| ‘Seniors Burgundy until his accession to the’ throne of Spain-in 1516. He. brought with him at this time his Flemish Chapel which from then on provided the official music of, the. court and enjoyed the result- ing patronage of which Spanish music was then deprived, As Spanish music did not re- ceive the intelligent support it re- quired, its composers were forced to publish abroad. Secular Span- ish music, however, was enthusias- tieally cultivated and increased the importance of instrumental accom- paniment. The favorite instrument for this purpose was the vihuela, which ,resembled a lute. The vi- huela was used for recreating classical traditions and was con- sidered the succesosr of Orpheus lute. ‘ Ghaamiiocistie of the Spanish Renaissance music was a sudden appreciation of the vitality and un- preméditated beauty of folk forms and a turning for new inspiration to the “people’s” songs. Spanish composers had assimilated the con- trapuntal traditions of the Flem- ish school but achieved their best and most unusual results when dealing with their own traditional songs.

Chapel Committee By Lograsso On Dante’s Devotion Common Room, May 11, 5 P.M.— “Evidence of Dante’s Devotion to Our Lady” was the subject of a talk given by Miss Lograsso before Chapel Committee. The lecture was centered on the “Purgatorio” and “Paradiso” of La divina commedia but ._Miss. Lograsso began with Dante’s references to the Virgin Mary in his youthful work, La vita « nuova. ‘The Virgin is the one ies sets the whole Divine Comedy in action, for it is she who appeals, indirect- ly, to Beatrice, to descend from heaven and rescue the poet from the wood of sin, Dante also in- cluded all the prayers to Mary that are in the Litany in his poem. He ~~ always places them in the lovliest} of atmospheric settings, and as an example of this Miss Lograsso cit- - ed the instance in the beautiful As Hears Lecture Aeschylus. Currently Dr. Latti more is working on a translation of Rhesus of Euripedes. The Grant will probably be used by him for traveling expenses next summer. Friday, May 14 12:00 p. m.

However, these two purposes have of- _ten come into conflict.’ Is the first responsibility of the col- lege to see that the students who have the greatest need are given preference i in jobs? If this is so, on what basis can this need be determined? Or should the jobs be open to everyone, and decided on a competitive or merely a first-come first- served basis? The College seems to have no clear-cut policy on this question. In many cases, scholarship students are given pref- erence. In other instances, such as baby-sitting, the need of those wanting to work has not been considered. Certain hall jobs that do not require particular ability or talent are often decided on the basis of seniority or on the basis of the first who was to sign up. While it is easy to say that those who have the greatest need should have priority, we feel that it is difficult for the college always to determine and decide on such a basis. ° If scholarship students are automatically given preference in all jobs, they may be depriving students who may -have as great a need as they. And it would seem highly impracticable. to look into the individual circumstance before deciding every. campus job and every Friday night baby-sit. In addition, if all jobs were decided completely on the basis of need, those who would like the experience of working but who do not happen to have a need at the present may never get a chance to work at all. We feel that the answer to this dilemma is to sik more campus jobs open to the students. Student waitresses i in the pins the grounds could be ‘done by the ‘Auten In short, we feel that as long as the demand for jobs is greater than the supply, more opportunities for work should he. mace ayalignte to the students. $s only discordant note was the inci- “ |dental music which was repetiti- Jarrell Satirizes Writes ‘Picture by Evelyn DeB 4 e 5G -The Alfred ‘Knopf Publishing}: Company recently sent us a paper- bound copy of a new book, Pictures From An Institution in the hope that we would want to review it. It is free, (to us) 277 pages long, and is written by a Mr. Randall Jarrell, a teacher at Bard College. With the book, they supplied its jacket, complete with favorable comments by Louis Untermeyer, Marianne Moore and Richard Bis- sell.. We take them up on it here. Pictures From an Institution, A Comedy, is a set of portraits of a group of men and women connect- ed with a progressive college for women. We have it on good auth- ority that the college is Bard, about which Mary McCarthy has written The Groves of Academe. | There is no plot, and only the ten- uous thread of the theme of social satire. to connect the sketches; all the seven or eight persons dealt with are allied in circumstance ‘by residing at Benton College in the capacity of teachers,’administrators or visiting artists. Nothing hap- pens in this book. We must suppose that he is aiming at the simple sa- tire of the group who inhabit the campuses of most eastern colleges. He is amazingly successful, and his book is as funny as Mr. Unter- meyer guaranteed it would be. Description of Gertrude The most huneitant hive in the collection, is the character of Ger- trude Johnson, a novelist, tempor- arily teaching, around whom the book can be said to revolve, if it moves at. all. “She,” says Mr. Jarrell would have “come from Paradise and complained to God that the apple wasn’t a Winesap at all, but a great big pulpy Wash- ington Delicious. “Age could not wither nor custom stale her infinite monotony; in fact, neither Age nor. Custom could do anything (as ‘they said, their voices rising) with the Amer- ican novelist Gertrude Johnson.” Gertrude has come to Benton Col- lege because she is between nov- els. With her is her husband Sid- ney. The description of their re- lationship needs only her thought: “I wish I made enough from my writing so Sidney wouldn’t have to work.” She soon finds in Benton, and its President, Dwight Robbins, her new novel.. In order to gather material, she gives a dinner party, to which most of the characters of the comedy are invited: The Rob- bins; the author who tells the story in the first person, (to give the book some shade of continu- ity); his wife; a young girl who is the friend of himself and his wife, and Professor and Mrs. 'Whit- taker. The only persons not _in- cluded are the Rosenbaums, and. Miss Batterson. Mr. Rosenbaum is the musician in residence, Miss Batterson an English teacher. This is the only event of any consequence that occurs in the book.

The major’ portion of the com- edy is given over to Mr. Jarrell’s dissection of the people with whom he deals. Mr. Robbins, the president who sees in himself am analogy to Jay Gatsby and tries hard to be a boy wonder, is very comprehensive- ly drawn, and with the wit that is essential to this book. It is a very good, superficial portrait of a man. It is not lacking in sympathy but it does lack dignity, and any tinge of respect for the man as a human being. ¥ Unsatisfying The Rosenbaums are the: only people whom Mr. Jarrell has im- bued with cémmon sense and. an understanding \of life, for it is the lack of such an understanding for which he takes the rest of the cast to task. They are German-Jewish refugees, in a world which they’ must take without much sympathy, but with an amused understanding. Gottfried Rosenbaum “is the only point of sanity, beyond Jarrell him- self, in the whole of Benton. The book is consistently amus- ing, and at times even brilliant in its characterization.

The program included a business met- ing, short lectures, and displays-in ihe various laboratories. First on the agenda was the ini- tiation of the newly-elected mem- bers to Sigma Xi, an honorary sci- entists’ society. ‘hose admitted as full members were Robert 1S. Da- vidon and George Vaux; promoted to full membership—Georgiana W. Seovil and Frederick C: Strong; chosen associate members—Mabel M. Chen, Louise F. Hutchinson, Marilyn R. Loeb,: and Dorothy C. Selby. A slate of ‘candidates was sub- mitted and: voted upon. Mary S. Gardiner was elected president; John C. Oxtoby — vice-president; and Edith H. Lanman—member at large, for the next two years. Members of the chemistry staff gave short talks. Dr. Frances Berliner spoke about her work in organic chemistry per- taining to the electron release of the alkyl groups. These groups have more~electron—releasing~ en- ergy than the hydrogen ion, how- ever within the groups there are various inconsistencies with re- spect to the electron releasing pow- er. By observing aromatic com- pounds substituted with ' alkyl gioups, Mrs. Berliner hopes to find an ‘explanation for this behavior. ‘|Miss Lanman is studying the oxi- dation potential of Rhodium. She has noticed many unusual proper- ties of this element which is found in the second triad of the periodic table. Dr. Zimmerman, with the heip of graduate students, is doing photochemical work with the com- pound, azobenzene, which has two isomers. By. subjecting it to rays he can transform the structure ayd thereby study the mechanism by which it changes. Until a few years ago shiinltete were puzzled as to how the elec- trons were arranged in the benzene ring. The modern theory is that | these electrons form a cloud ‘over , molecule. Dr; Current Events Mr. Bachrach Says U.S. Suffers From Obsession ’ The’ McCarthy-Army hearings American political life, for here the right wing of the Republican The implications of this situation, and what it means in terms of the power of McCarthy in the future, and of the reign of McCarthyism was discussed at, Current Events on Monday, ‘be 3, by Mr. Bach- rach, Battle Between Friends McCarthy, two months ago, was important to the Republican party, and was needed to sustain the only issue they had, that being the issue of communists in government. He was condemned only when he be- gan to attack Republicans instead of Democrats. The battle today is not really determining anything as it is between the’ giant communist hunters themselves, Mundt and Dirksen versus their former ally. These persons agree on the one fundamental, that the most import- ant job is to hunt subversives. This hearing has brought out quite a lot of dirty business, wire tapping be- ing used freely, and the fact that McCarthy is very likely ,in cahoots with the _F.B.1, something that Hoover has not dented. No one wanted_this h al- ly, and the end result is not like to be decisive because of the con tions of the hearing. Though Mc- Carthy may lose his power, unless he comes up with a big communist fish in the next few months, ‘the tenor of fééling im the United States - which he groused will not decrease. The fundamental fact is that the United States suffers from an ob- session of fear, to which even the President himself’ has succumbed in his firing of Dr. Oppenheimer. ‘would be the top defendant. Up to a certain point ‘it seemed as though Cohn and not McCarthy But then when the television cameras came into play McCarthy could not resist. He made it his fight. These hearings have led to a shift’ of -public opinion. Three months ago only one senator voted against McCarthy in a showdown in the senate but now senators are losing their fear, beginning to turn their back on this communist hunter, Shift of Public Opinion “* These hearings reflect the poli- tical vacuum that exists today. Liberals in America should adopt a positive rather than the present anemic, fear-ridden policy they have been following, especially in foreign affairs. In reality there is really no opposition policy in for- eign affairs. We do not know what to do with ourselves. Any sugges- iton of support of Red China or- partition of Indo-China means po- litical suicide. It is not only the parties that must do this changing, the change must come from the basis of dem-- ocracy, the people. Library Ope Open Late On Two Sat.

He was the first of three pacifists, all college students, who were guest panelists at this discussion, and ‘represented the non-registered pacifist position. This is the pacifist who refuses to register for the draft. The other two, guests were Pauly Lacey, of University of Pennsy]l- vania, who represented the 1-0 po- sition, or that of the pacifist who registers for Army service, and ian job in order to free someone to fight, and Dave Potter, of Haver- ford, who defended the 1-A-0 posi- tion (one who registers, and when draited, works alongside those who are fighting, but does not carry a gun oneself). From the short talks that the three gave, it was evident that pac- ifists are rugged individualists, for while all three agreed that pacifi- cism is necessary, since war is not. basically inherent in human soe1- ety, they differed very radically on the methods by which one cafi at- tain a pacifistic society. Paul Seaver advocated the non- registrant position, for in this man- Progressive College Satirized By Jarrell Continued from Page 2 It has however a serious fault, which does not lie in its departure from the traditional forms of novel-length imaginative work. The product of Mr. Jarrell’s work hangs together remarkably _ well, considering its form, and makes intensely amusing reading. It is, sentially unsatisfying. It tells us just too much about its characters for them to remain the sitting ducks of satire, and too little for . them~to assume the qualities of humanity. The portrait of Gertrude “John- son is a case in point. We meet repulsive woman whose comic val- ue lies in the words Mr. Jarrell puts into her mouth. jWhen she leaves the book she falls just short of having become a deeply moving, truly painful and impressive fig- ure, at war with the world for not liking her enough, at war with herself for the same reason. Her relationship with her husband and with society has been too fully de- veloped for her to‘remain a figure in a comedy, and she is a eee shadow. Clever Satire Had Mr. Jarrell dared, he might have written a book that had a consistent-depth, glimpses of which he sometimes gives us. But he did not.. He seems to perceive the in- ner personality with too clear a vision to be able to watch for very long, and hurries on to someone else, only to find himself at the same impasse. Nevertheless, it is possible to read Pictures From An Institution with relish. Its satire on the life of a certain type of college is sane- ly pointed, and never misses its mark. He has ‘a well-developed sense of the ridiculous, a refresh- ing, easy, prose style, and an ex- cellent ear for characteristic speech. His descriptive passages, in oA deals with personal/ appearance,\are inspired by wicked an ingratiating habit of making side comments on life, culture, and the progressive ideal. If it is a disappointing- work of creative | im-| _ Saeastion, it is still a fine co —and- it_is this, after * that Mr. Students Defend in World Today ner, he believes, we have the one veal opportunity to avoid compro- mise, with war and what it stands for. Paul Lacey, who aaecasad the “middle ground” of _ pacificism chose the 1-A position because it allows one to remove the causes for war while protesting against it. By saying “yes” to the country once (in registering for the draft) one can say “ng” to fighting, and, retaining his fréedom, can work to erase the poverty, prejudice, etc., which, he believes, are the cause of war. Speaking last on the pli, Dave Potter raised-the-question of how far is one to draw the line in reg- ‘stering a protest against the pre- vailing society. The pacifist, he said, can begin his protest with being a 1-A-0, then 1-0, nonregis- trant, then cease to pay his taxes, since they go for war, and finally withdraw from the universe. Becaues he believes that the paci- fist who is more “withdrawn” than the 1-A-0 tends to shirk responsi- bility when the country is in dan- ger, he .advocated obedience to one’s conscience first, by becoming a pacifist, and then. obedience to the country; as far as your con- science will permit. After the panelists spoke, there was a discussion period, at which arguments pro and con th | pacifist positions were raised. It was almost universally agreed that war was’ not the answer to all problems, and perhaps pacificism deserves a try—or at least a hear- ing, with sympathy. Health in College Discussed In N.Y. A panel of six chief executives of American colleges keynoted the Fourth National-_Conference —on Health in Colleges held May 5-8, in New York. Galled to consider the ways of improving the health of college students, the conference was sponsored by 46 national health and educational organiza- tions. ‘Of special interest to Bryn Maw: is, that after having an all-physi cian Council for 383 years, the American College Health Associa- tion elected Muriel Farr to the of- fice of Vice-President. “The President.

Blood-KoolingPills Kill Campus Panic . by Sally Moore ’56 Here I sit, surrounded by Byron, Shelley, Locke, the plays of Noel Coward, and Boswell’s Life of, Sam- uel: Johnson, just a few of the books I have yet to read, and some- body just told me that we only have one week of classes left be- tween us and exams. And I thought of going away for the weekend! Spring finals are especially tense because of Comprehensives, and a general air of hysteria spreads like the Bubonic Plague. Best friends snap at each other, and friendships are permanently broken off until next year. There must be somewhere on this earth, where so, many Utopias have been created, a place where students either have no exams or else take them calmly. I should like to see the day. when I do not enter the fateful room “clutching my pinafore,” and struggling to breathe. It is a known fact (I forgot the statistics) that Hysteria Hurts Grades. The more tense you are, the worse you will do (are you calmer now?). To Ensure Longer Life and Better Grades, take -one Karters Blood-Kooling pill before each exam. Meanwhile, we: will have to combat hysteria by our selves, or go clutching through an- other: two weeks. Keep cool, keep calm, keep Cum Laude?

Leslie said that the committee is trying to cut down on the number of required events, and will let the Freshmen choose what they wish .o attend. There will be a few changes in the new program in an attempt to ereate -more fun and chances to meet more people.

Rupen Reveals Pedagogic Status What was the cause of student ecstasy in the ten o’clock class of comparative government on Mon- day?. Mr. Robert Rupen’s reaction to his newly acquired degree, of course. When class convened, students who were interested in the fate of his hurried trip to the University of Washington last week, timidly asked him if his exams were tough and when he would know the out- come. Their queries brought forth a dramatic response, for he march- ed to the blackboard and treated the class to the first public show- ing of his name and letters. After filling one blackboard with R.

Also, on the first Thursday the Freshmen and their parents will be guided around the campus. The French orals just for incoming Freshmen will be repeat- ed, due to their great success. The Dance on Saturday night will be a regular one with some changing partners dances, instead of the square dance that was tried this year. Leslie emphasized the point that only Haverford students and guests of the Freshmen will be invited. Meetings. of the present Fresh- men-have.resulted in new plans for next year. All the Hall Presidents will write to the Freshmen in their halls in addition to the usual letter received over the summer. . The S.A. op will be given more stress, @lso as the outcome of these meetings. Freshman Week will be from September 23 to.27.

Benfy Common Room, May 4—The “‘in- ner light,” the most hotly disputed term of Quakerism, was the sub- ject of an address by Dr. Theodore Benfy. Dr. Benfy, Professor of Chemistry at Haverford, spoke at a Chapel Committee meeting. ‘The term “inner light” began with the spiritual conversion of George Fox, an Englishman who, in the period -around 1650, was searching for a convincing religious faith and was unable to find one, even with the counsel of Oxford and Cam- bridge theologians. As Fox gave up this search in despair, one day an inner voice said to him, “There was one, even Christ Jesus, who can speak to thy condition.” From this experience grew the belief in inner guidance which is the basis of Quakerism. In England today the term “in- ward light”, is used to signify that the guidance comes from within. This is the same light which Jesus had when he was alive, and which His disciples realized was still present within them after His death. Jesus is God fully revealed Z| for the first time, and the only one Discusses “Inner Light” Ih Meeting of the Chapel Committee through whom the light has ever shone completely. During the life of Christ, said Professor Benfy, the Pharisees spent all their time trying to obey the highest ethical standards pos- sible. Many people still do that to- day. Man is always worried about his soul, but in a completely self- centered way. Jesus felt that man could not live on this high ethical plane through his own efforts alone. Only with God’s aid could the heights be reached. When Peter told Christ that he would follow Him to His cruci- fixion, Christ said that instead Pet- er would deny Him. In this way Jesus destroyed Peter’s self-confi- dence, as He did not want Peter to die in self-glory. Instead Peter was to live humbly and discover the true meaning of Christ. A person who feels himself en- gulfed by an evil world and who struggles against it accomplishes nothing, said Mr. Benfy. When he realizes that the world is suffused with love and works through the world, then he will receive a rev- elation, or inner light. 4 Page Four © ge THE COLLEGE NEWS. ~ Wednesday, May 12, 1954 Colleges To Offer Summer.

By the next day, however, the Bryn Mawrtyrs had. apparently learned their Swarthmore lesson,.... as beautiful team play marked the Bryn Mawr-Beaver game through- out both halves. Coach Yeager commented upon the excellent of- fensive action of our defense—ac- tion that enabled our attack to vary its game. The wings and center functioned well as effective links between at- tack and defense, while goalie Rob- bie Borneman’s inspired play was little short of brilliant.
