VOL. XLVII, NO. 5 ARDMORE and BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1950 Her. Trib. Forum Brings Speakers, Topical Subjects Specially contributed by Ronnie Gottlieb, °53 Last Tuesday at 1:30 p.m., I walked into the Waldorf Astoria in New York, with a ticket to the Herald Tribune Forum’s second session in my hand, anda do-or-die “IT am an alert college student’’| & look all over my face. The floor of the hotel ballroom had been set up with row upon row of chairs, but they were almost all filled by the time I arrived. So, with regrets| ™ that I could not find a seat in the college section, I slipped into one (towards the rear of the room) between two very typical-looking club women. As I glanced around me, at the women in the two rows of balcony seats, and at the stage, set against the figure of a round world with two lifted, idealistic young faces supelimposed upon it, I had the feeling that the Junior League, the D.A.R. and the Garden. Clubs of American were holding a grand convention. ; The impression was heightened when the first speaker was intro- duced as “Mrs. Hiram Cole Hough- ton, President of the General Fed- eration of Women’s Clubs” who was to speak on her group’s tour to ten European countries. But as the session went on, my slightly superior smile resolved into a deep- ly intent expression. I grew proud of the Herald Tribune for bring- ing these excellent speakers to- gether, and of the women’s clubs for being civic-minded enough to eome. The overall theme of the Forum was “Mobilizing America’s Strength for World Security,” and Tuesday afternoon’s session was to take up Mrs. Houghton’s “Report from Europe,” and “The Untapped Po- tential in Labor-Management Re- lations.” The latter subject was to be handled by a Harvard professor on “The Evolution of Collective Bargaining” and by panels of busi- nessmen, educators, labor leaders and plain citizens on “How Can We Go Forward?” and “What Is Holding Us Back?” Blanche The- bom was to sing for us between speeches and relax our thinking minds. The speakers were men and women who spoke from experience, among them, Douglas McGregor, President of Antioch College; John W. Haynes, an ex-Secretary of the Treasury, membér of the S.E.C., and President of the Tax Founda- tion; and Stanley Marcus, Execu- tive Vice President of the Neiman- Marcus Company, one of Ameri- ca’s foremost department stores. Before the afternoon was over, we had heard profit-sharing, The Toledo Plan, The Scanlon Plan, high taxes, socialistic government, false economic motives, responsi- bilities versus rights, dishonest political leadership, free enterprise, and internationalism all presented on an everyday plane, roughly and provocatively thrashed out. The audience was mentally frustrated, exhausted, and (if I am indication) delighted.

As the wife of a trustee of Bryn Mawr College, I feel that it is my duty to report to Kathar- ine these blatant indecencies which seem to me to indicate an upheav- al of latent demoralization which I had not previously noticed. I must insist that you disclose to me, at your earliest possible convenience, the identities of the other two young ladies who participated with you in this shameful display of cynical immorality. I expect to hear from you directly and I trust that you will be suitably chastised. Yours truly, Mrs. J.C.S...

Club Intends Tour of Hospital The Science Club announces that there will be a tour, symposium, and dinner in Philadelphia spon- sored by a Pre-Medical Society on Saturday, November 4th. The tour will be conducted by officials of the Jefiferson Medical School and Hospital, and visitors will tbe shown both the Medical School and the Hospital, from nine to aleven in the morning. Starting at two o’clock in the afternoon, there will be an informal sympos- ium held by representatives of Jefferson, the University of Penn- sylvania, Hanmeman, and the Women’s Medical College of Penn- sylvania, to discuss the problems of premedical education today. After the symiposium, an outstand- ing medical educator from Jeffer- son will speak at dimner, which will be held at LaSalle College. If any additional information is desired concerning the tour, sym- posium, and dinner, Jane Walker of Radnor, president of the Science Club, will be glad to supply it. Witness Demands Cynics’ Identities: Humble Inmate Replies to Charges address, I thelieve. I am_ over- whelmed by the enormity of my mis- demeanors. Indeed, and I had no susipizion that there was a witness to these, my misdoings. The mem- ory of them is most grevious to me; and the burden of them is well-nigh unbearable. The terrible fact that it was a Thursday escaped me. And had I, known, I surely would not have been ‘so overt in my deed; and my two fellow-transgressors share in my humility and desire for atone- ment. ld In view of my desire to repent and the fact that my scurrilous ac- tion merits further chastisement, it. is my earnest wish that you oblige me by prompt communica- tion through the same-medium.

Phipps Act Outstandingly In Moliere by Jane Augustine, ’52 Last Friday night the first four of the annual Freshman Hall Plays were presented to a large audience which overran’ Bryn Mawvr’s half of the Skinner Work- shop. Sue Kramer, president of the Bryn Mawr College Theatre, spoke to the audience before the curtains opened, and explained the punpose of the plays: to unite each hall through working together, and to let new dramatic talent find ex- pression. Each year a plaque is awarded to that hall whose play shows the best acting and the greatest spirit of cooperation. Pembroke East’s A Matter of Principle by Martin Flavin was the first production, directed by Edie Woodruff, ’54 and Katusha Chere- meteff, 52.

On Mon- day, November sixth, at 12:30 p.m., Mr. Lattimore will speak on “America and Asia,” a subject of great interest to everyone at the present time. The outbreak of hos- tilities in Korea has made it ap- parent that the threat of a third world war is continually growing, and the “cradle of conflict” of this war could very easily be the Far East. It is now essential to under- stand the background and prob- lems of Asia, and Owen Lattimore is considered ‘one of the best in- formed experts on the Far East in America today. Mr. Lattimore grew up with Asia and knows its development from first-hand observations. He spent his early childhood in China, and returned to this country as a young man in 1919. From that time until 1928, he was affiliated with various newspapers and companies _ in Tientsen, Shanghai and Peking, and made several trips into Mon- golia, Turkestan and other rarely travelled parts of China. Since 1929 he had worked with such organiza- tion as the Social Science Research Council, the Harvard-Yenching In- stitute and the Guggenheim Foun- dation, doing research on Man- churia, Mongolia and China proper. During the war, Mr. Lattimore was influential in shaping our Far Eastern foreign policy. In 1941 he was Political Adviser to Chiang Kai-Shek and thereby made a link between our State Department and the Chinese Government. He was the Director of Pacific Operations in the Office of War Information Continued on Page 6 Col. 2 C. Robinson’s Portrayal Gives Rock Play Vitality by Joan McBride, '52 The second group of Freshman Hall Plays was presented on Sat- urday, October 28, at 8:15 p.m. in the Skinne:: Workshop. The plays in order of presentation were as follows: Denbigh’s The Rehearsal by Baring; Rockefeller’s The Most Foolish Virgin by Helen Gaskell; Rhoad’s first act of The Skin of Our Teeth by Thornton Wilder, which was awarded the plaque; and The Still Alarm by George S. Kauf- man, presented by the Non-Resi- dents. In choosing The Rehearsal, which depicted the rehearsal of a Shake- spearean play during Elizabethan times, Denbigh showed excellent judgment. It started the evening with the proper frivolous ‘atmos- phere and maintained its gay spirit of satire throughout the whole performance. N. Hayward delight- fully interpreted the part of «an irate actor, unbearably conceited and continually abused; and_ his leading lady/man, Lady Macbeth, was portrayed by Georgette Davis, who combined hauteur and bum- bling in a very amusing manne: indeed. J. Grimminger, the fresh- man director, and Isabel..Frey, ’53, the upperclassman adviser, are to be commended for their effective staging, as is the stage manager, G. Gustavson, for her clever cos- tumes and props. The Most Foolish Virgin, Rocke- feller’s offering, although intended as a serious allegory, contained lines which may be described only as “hammy,” and therefore pro- voked laughter from the audience at inopportune times. The unfor- tunate selection of the play, how- ever, failed to detract from the gen- eral good quality of the Rock freshmen’s acting. Claire Robinson, as Zonula, gave one of the best performances of the evening. By her sweetness, skill, and refreshing “light touch,” she conveyed con- vincingly the unselfish nature of Continued on Page 2 Col. 4 iixpert to Speak On Play Lighting In the Common room at 8:30 on Monday, November 6, Richard Bernstein as the first guest speak- er of Actresses Anonymous will lecture on “Stage Design and Lighting.” The problems which he has encountered in his work, especially in summer stock, are similar to the ones which Brym Mawr and Haverford students have to overcome in Goodhart and Roberts Hall, so his remarks wil? be particularly pertinent. Being young in the field of stage design, Mr. Bernstein will also be well equipped to advise any students who are interested in going into this field and will answer ques- tions after the lecture. A graduate of Yale Drama School, Mr. Bernstein was scenfe designer for the Theatre Intime, the Princeton sum™mer-gtock the- atre in 1949 and for the 1948 and 1950 seasons cf the Westches- Continued on Page 5 Col.4 Page Two THE COLLEGE NEWS Wednesday, November 1, 1950 THE COLLEGE NEWS FOUNDED IN 1914 Published weekly during the College Year (except during Thanks- giving, Christmas and Easter holidays, and during examination weeks) | in the interest of Bryn Mawr College at the Ardmore Printing Company, Ardmore, Pa., and Bryn Mawr College.

Because Taylor is not fire-proofed, a non-extinguished cigarette, or the slightest ‘flick of an ash against someone’s hair or clothing could start a blaze that would engulf the whole building al-. most imthediately. A fire i in Taylor would be disastrous. ings, the building is always filled to capacity. There are only “On Se a “Soviet agriculture is in an ex- tremely precarious position. The dust bowl situation is chronic with them, and it is getting worse.” The soil is good, but there is not enough rain. It is extremely hard to see how they are going to feed all the extra mouths of the satei- lite countries and still improve the standard of living. Collectivization redistributed the farm hands, tak- ing the extra ones for industry, but it did not increase the yield per acre. By the year 2000 the USSR will have “a shaky food base and a by no means non-ex- haustible supply of natural re- sources.” By that time they will not be able to show such increases in production as they now show. After World War I there was a very forced drive to industrialize the USSR. It was questionable whether the drive was to improve the standard of living or to pre- pare for war. In February, 1931, in answer to the complaints that the rate of production was rising too rapidly, Stalin announced: “To slacken the tempo means to fall behind. We have a fatherland; and we will preserve its independence.” Production increased steadily, This year the fourth Five Year Plan will be completed, and “the high goals will be more than met.” ‘|Even if we take into account the tapering - off of production, the USSR wiil still more than make these goals on time. “Look,” “Quick” and “Flair.” We listened to them and others on the U.N. Police Force, on a home program for furthering world security, on the necessity for “Truth Bombing,” on international investment to ease the dollar gap, on “Understanding Each Other” and we heard front line reports from Korea by a wounded Ameri- ean Pfe. and by a South Korean Colonel. They were good speeches, authoritative, moving, well-direct- ed, and yet I felt that the evening’s contribution to the audience was very different from the afternoon’s, It was not what was said that counted; it was who said it, and wasn’t it interesting that these people, who started off “just like us,” were in touch with such Big Things. Yet, this was a significant contribution in its own way. I left the session feeling that the audi- ence had been inspired to be in touch with Big Things, too. That was all of the Forum I had. An early morning train and classes awaited me the next day. The ex- perience had been well worth the time, and I was only sorry that Bryn Mawrtyrs probably would skip over the Forum reports in the Tribune, and miss the great wealth of ideas to be found there: The Class of 1953 is pleased to announce the election of Oninion Self-Gov Board Writes; Liquor Rules . Clarified To the Editor of the NEWS: The Executive Board of the Self - Government Association has discussed your editorial of October 25. We are grateful to the NEWS for bringing up the question of unescorted “Bar Hopping’; how- ever, we feel that the situation is not as confusing, serious, or wide- spread as the editorial suggests. Our policy is stated in the Con- stitution: “Cases of intoxication will be severely dealt with.” “Any case which the Execu- tive Board considers to have brought discredit on the college shall be severely dealt with.” It is imypossible and unnecessary to list every situation which might bring discredit on the college; it is equally impossible and unneces- sary to list rules to cover each situation. Every fall when freshmen ask if girls who are under age may sign cut to bars, Self-Government re- plies: (a) the State Law says that no minor may enter or be served in a bar; (b) however, if a minor breaks the law on her own respon- sibility, she must sign out correct- ly; (c) the discretionary function of the student enters the picture here. After all, the Self-Government Association is based on the as- sumption that people of college age are mature enough to make their own decisions. We agree with the NHWS that the question of “Bar Hopping” cannot be settled by a definite rule. It can be answered only by the in- dividual’s discretion. Exertion of social pressure in cases of intoxi- eation, as in everything else, is up to the individual student. Accord-_ ing to the recent revisions, the use ofthis social pressure cannot be judged by anyone.

The staging of Naomi Ellenbogen, supervised by Maggie Glenn, ’53, bordered on the professional: for example, the illusion of the fireplace downstage, the view of the “garden,” and other such devices. Barbara Floyd was engaging as the restless actress— Sabina, and B. Merrick gave a con- vincing portrayal of Mr. Antrobus, a burdened and unhappy Adam. A. Gardner and M. Winsor were very attractive children, and the mam- moth and dinosaur were made fetchingly prehistoric by Denise Bystryn and Kathy Blodgett, re- spectively.

Cooper Foundation and_ the Women’s Athletic Association of Swarthmore College. The program included four dances—two of pro- grammatic nature and two on ab- stract themes. First on the program was an interpretation of fugues and pre- ludes of J. S. Bach. The dancers used counterpoint in movement as Bach used counterpoint in harmony. Fugal entry and movement in the music was emphasized by the choreography of Mr, Limon. Hav- ing the piano on the stage and the dancers clad in black and white lent a dancing school aura to the performance. Although the feeling was one of classical ballet rather than modern dance, tle dancers were never hampered by it in their interpretation. By liquid move- ments they seemed to convey the spirit in which the several fugues were written: now playful, now searching, now whimsical. Here, too, was veiled satire on some of. the classical forms, which gave a humorous undercurrent to the whole performance. The attention of the dancers focussed on the piano at the end was a delightful finishing touch. Though this num- ber was more intellectual than emotional in appeal, it was indeed rewarding to find an interpreta- tion of Bach’s fugues that was not altogether reminiscent of chipping ice. The second number, “La Malin- che,” told the story of Malintzin, an Indian Princess, who imple- mented the betrayal of her people through her work for Cortez. Pop- ular legend has it that she return- ed as the wild Malinche during their later struggles for liberation. The music itself was made fuller by the use of voices, though they could hardly be said to have the effect of the mighty chorale in Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. Here, once more, the dancers were in tune with the spirit of the music. The dance was in epic style. El Conquistador entered carrying the sword uplifted in the sign of the cross, followed by El Indio (Mr. Limon) and La Malinche, bear- ing the pagan flower. Mr. Limon Observer It had been one of those mellow days of Indian Summer . . . the sun had felt warm on our backs . . we had not needed coats. Now, in the twilight, the wide marble steps. were creamy white, the grass terraces rolled down beside them like a velvet canpet. It wa; seven, and we should have gone home to dinner. But the air was soft and still, the top step was warm with September sun. There were occasional footsteps on the cobbled street that passed in front of the basilica and went on up the hill. Occasional voices cut softly through the exquisite after- sunset tranquillity. The huge silent presence of Sacre Coeur stood be- hind us; in front, dusk was set- tling over Paris. The city was there in front of us, and behind us. But we heard no honk of horns, clip clop of horses’ hoofs, jangling traffic or shuffling pedestrians. There was only its unseen and unheard pres- ence which we sensed, far away. Nearby was evening peace... And then we heard the pure, sweet music of a violin. It was coming from the foot of the ba- silica steps. Passing footsteps Continued on Page 4 Col. 3 was effective, if rather convulsive, in his representation of a van- quished people struggling for freedom. Pauline Koner was out- standing as La Malinche. Her transitions from Indian princess to great lady to wild spirit were ex- ceptionally well executed. Yet, in spite of the emotional quality of the performance, this dance had little to recommend it as a drama. It was a pageant from the pages of history, leaving one neither up- lifted nor depressed, but fascinated by the episode. “Invention” was a_ series of dances, each in a different mood, “indicating the statement and de- velopment of non-programmatic themes in movement terms.” This was the only number on the pro- gram for which Mr. Limon him- self did not do the choreography, and the vagud discrepancy between the steps which he used and those which Doris Humphrey used was interesting to note. The‘ relation between classical ballet and mod- ern dance was subtly brought to the fore. ‘Poetry in motion’ would be an apt description of some of the figures, the flowing movements standing in sharp contrast to those stark, convulsive gestures associ- ated with the modern dance in the mind of the casual observer. ” “The Moor’s Pavane,” variations on the theme of Othello, was prob- ably the best number on the pro- gram in most respects. Certainly this was not because of the effect- ive set, misty behind a gauze scrim, nor because of Pauline Law- rence’s beautiful costumes, but be- Continued on Page 4 Col. 5 SPORTS In a hard-fought, vigorous game, the varsity hockey team defeated Ursinus last Wednesday by a score of 2 to 1. Only after 14 minutes of play was the first goal made, by._Nancy Blackwood, for Bryn Mawr. In this first half, both teams were passing well, follow- ing up hits, and the members of each team co-operated with one an- other for fine teamwork. At the close of the half, the score stood at 1 to 0 in Bryn Mawr’s favor. At the opening of the second half, Ursinus, with few setbacks, Yan the ball down the field and past Trish Muiligan for a goal, evening the score. Amother goal for Ur- sinus seemed inevitable a little later in the second half, but Trish, with two quick and _ effective blocks with her foot, saved the day. Both teams were now send- ing long passes down the field, exerting tremendous effort, and on the offensive. After a long strug- gle near the Ursinus goal and with ten minutes left in the game, Judy Thompson scored the second B.M.C. point with a hard shot into the corner of the goal. This was the last point of the game; .the rest of the action was mainly de- fensive, with only an occasional in- effectual dash toward goal. At the half of the second team game, Ursinus led by 2 to 0, but two goals by Betsy Parker in the second half put Bryn Mawr back into the running. This game, too, was a struggle. Although there was a great deal of action, no more points were scored. The final score: Bryn Mawr 2, Ursinus 2. Lineups: Varsity teams Bryn Mawr Ursinus Stone (Capt.)....L.W. ..

Leighton Recalls Undergrad Life Of Mayday, Cornerstone and Chorus by Julie Ann Johnson, 52 Miss Gertrude C. K. Leighton, A.B., Bryn Mawr, 1938, LL.B. Yale, ’45, came to Bryn Mawr as Assistant Professor in the department of Political Science from a_ position as Visiting Lecturer at Yale Law School. Miss Leighton, who is teaching one section of Politics 101a, as well as the course in Inter- national Law and Organizations, says that she always intended to specialize in international law, and did undergraduate work in this field while she was working for her LL.B. After receiving her degree, Miss Leighton practiced law in New York for two years, and in 1947 she returned to Yale as a gradu- ate law student and research as- sistant; holding the rank of In- structor in her position as Visiting Lecturer, she was also assistant to the Director of International Ad- missions. There were many foreign students in the graduate law school, who were not really study- ing law per se, but America and American legal institutions. These students had very interest- ing views on this subject, and their reaction to American customs was varied. Many had criticisms to offer; the Chinese students were at least open and conciliatory in their opinions, but Miss Leighton re- members the baffling contrast be- tween two Hindu students who were doing graduate work at the same time. One of them was the very personification of enthusiasm, delighted with America and every- thing American. The other young Hindu was extremely pathetic: he once said, “There is a great tradi- tion about the friendliness of Americans, but Americans aren’t nearly so friendly as they think they are.” Although her recent specializa- tion has been in the field of law, Miss Leighton’s main academic in- terest while she was at Bryn Mawr was archaeology. As Rhoads was being built while she was an under- graduate, Miss Leighton found herself quite “involved” in the lay- ing of the Rhoads cornerstone, and the contents of same. When finally assembled, the collection which was to represent our civilization to future archaeologists was a varied one. It included: a bottle of “Coke;” an edition of. the College News; can openers and “other interesting implements of the times;” a copy of the New York Times (“rather dull”); the first issue of Life, which due to its article, “Birth cf a Baby,” was included “over slight objections;” and a letter. When she recently came across a copy of the letter which was enclosed with this memorable collection, Miss Leighton was amazed at the “bold way in which we addressed posterity.” Big May Day was an accepted and produced a spirit of “commun- ity bravado;” this spirit seemed to be inescapable, and one of the most outstanding spectacles of the early spring was that of “grinds making paper flowers.” Although she was President of the Dramatic Club, forerunner of the Bryn Mawr Col- lege Theatre, and on first team hockey varsity, Miss Leighton re- members that the “high spot” of her Senior year came as a member of Chorus, which that year joined with Princeton in a presentation of the “Messiah.” It might seem difficult at first glance to identify Miss Leighton, at present a candidate for her J.S.D. (which, for the benefit of the uninitiated, means Doctor of the Science of Jurisprudence) at Yale, and ‘possessing an intense interest in political affairs, with the “archaeologist” who engaged in so varied a number of extra- curricular activities while she was an undergraduate at Bryn Mawr.

LAST NIGHTERS Maugham’s ‘Trio’ Offers Divers Moods, Relaxation specially contributed by Jacqueline Esmerian, ’51 You are back on the New York pavement after seeing! Somerset Maugham’s Trio, and it has made you relaxed and pensive. On the billboard behind, the light bulbs glitteringly proclaim that this is the American Premiere of, that production. Trio takes up the film form of Maugham’s earlier Quar- tet (which was such a success here last year), in that it consists of independent short stories, each of which is a typical Maugham prod- uct. » The first story, The Verger, is is told, after spending seventeen years as as- sistant to the vicar of a fashion- able church, that he can no longer remain in that office unless he learns to read and write. He proudly refuses to do that, judg- ing that it would be a _ hopeless venture at his age, and is left with- out a job. But his situation turns out to be not so desperate after all: he marries his middle-aged landlady and, also on a sudden im- pulse, opens a tobacco shop. En- couraged by the success of this new, unexpected career, he even- tually launches a dozen tobacco shops in his London neighborhood. As the movie proceeds to a schem- atization of events, we see cash boxes in the various tobacco shops taking in money at an incredible speed, a symbol of the ex-verger’s present prosperity. At the end of the story comes a true Maugham touch of irony—the revenge of the ex-venger, who is most engaging- ly played by James Hayter, upon literate society. (When he goes back to the vicar and casually pre- sents him with a handful of money for his church; or again, when a bank director, gasping at the idea that this prosperous tobacconist cannot read or write, points out how much better off even he would be, if possessed of those precious refinements, upon which he answers, with a twinkle in his eyes, that he would still be verger in a church. The next story, Mr. Knowall, is quite different in mood, and the tone is more cynical in its amuse- The setting is an English ship on a voyage to some distant ocean. “Mr. Knowall,” a role as- sumed by Max Kelada, one of the Continued on Page 4 Col. 1 part of college life at the time, Lexicographer Coerces Thesaurus: Avoids Giving Tangible Definitions by Helen Katz, ’53 hearse — what Richard would have given his kingdom for. svelte — happens to the heads of conceited people. punctual — disease of tires. ironic — column, opposite to Do- ric. sleuth — what David did to Go- liath.

There is little that he has not done during his chirpy lifetime, little that he has not seen on his globe-trottings, and, it seems, nothing that he does not know at least a little about; and he is in general the nuisance of the ‘ship. However, ‘his true * character and gallantry are reveal- ed at the captain’s party, to which he has characteristically invited himself, when he willingly stakes his reputation as a connoisseur of ] pearls to save a woman’s reputa- tion. There is a little more so- phistication and “film flavor” in the presentation of this central story of Trio than in that of the other two. The last story, The Sanatorium, has a haunting tenderness about it that lingers on afiter it is ended. One of Maugham’s_ favorites among his short stories, as the au- thor tells the audience in his brief introduction, it is more in the na- ture of.a many-threaded sketch than of a single incident. The set- ting is a tuberculosis sanatorium in the Scottish Highlands, and the characters are the patients, whose lives are all invisibly ruled by the disease. Through the years, the sanatorium has become their en- tire world for the older inmates, and they have each developed their little habits and mania, with no|‘*’ thoughts or desire of leaving. Two of the younger patients, though (Jean Simmons and Michael Ren- nie), have fallen in love and decide to leave the sanatorium and get married, even at the cost of their slim chance of ever recovering. Thus there is a gentle pathos in this story which sets it apart from the other two and gives it a more lasting appeal. Each story of Trio is a unit com- plete in itself, of which the con- tent, form and dramatic element ee perfectly coordinated and bal- anced. But in the end, because they are so essentially different in mood that they enhance each oth- er, they blend to form an enter- taining, and charming film.

Chris On Friday, October 27, the Bryn Mawr third hockey team played Pennsylvania here. The final score was 4-1 in favor of Bryn Mawr. Mary Warren made the first goal, followed by Liz Simpson’s goal, scored on a _ well-executed pass from wing Phylis Tilson. The Bryn Mawr team, however, seem- ed to be a little slow in following the ball and occasionally missed a good opportunity. During the second half, though, they perked up, but unfortunately so did Pennsylvania. Liz Simpson again scored, but this goal was followed by Penn’s.

Every now and then the violinist’s friend got up and announced in a clear, gay voice what would be played next. No one gave him any money; we were sure he did not want money for his music. Most people did not speak to him. They just lis- tened and left without talking. His music was rich and clear, and ex- quisitely pure in the tepid evening air.

Jose Limon was perfectly cast as the Moor. He seemed to have a com- plete understanding of the part and his performance, rich in emo- tional overtones, was a moving one. Lucas Hoving and Pauline Koner were equally good in the demanding roles of His Friend and Friend’s Wife. Betty Jones was more than adequate as ‘The Moor’s Wife. The choreography was very fine. The dramatic effect was heightened considerably by the oc- casional return to the stately Pavane figure. The steps them- selves were more conservative than the popular conception of modern dance would normally allow. (I do not agree with members of the audience who accredited this to the fact that the dancers wore shoes in this number.) The effect was not one of pomp, but one of simple dignity, ultimately suited to the calibre of the theme. In all, it was an enjoyable pro- gram and one of varied appeal. The interpretations by the dancers were consistently good, true, and in good taste. Watching the supple, well controlled bodies, one senses the presence of great strength and beauty; and one must Say, in de- fense of the often ridiculed expo- nents of the modern dance, that this is truly a worthy medium for expression.

The Communist was delightfully handled with a touch of lighthearted gusto by Ma- zie Kermedy. The performance displayed the broadest possible ex- ploitation of a play with limited potentialities. The Affected Young Ladies, adapted from Moliere, was given next by Pembroke West. Some of the most skilled acting of all that seen during the hall plays came out in this thoroughly chanming comedy. Elsie Kemp as Mascarille was magnificent. She delivered amusing lines with a crook of the little finger or an exaggerated wreap of hat that made them screamingly funny. She had a very long pantomime sequence which would have tried the skills of far more experienced actresses, but the audience’s interest never fal- tered. Magdelon, played by Ann whipps, was an equally excellent performance. She knew how to use her fan as well as how to avoid the pitfall of slapstick. While her hardling of the part was always light, and in the best of ‘taste, she never failed to get in every possible laugh. The rest of the cast was very fine; the fact that it had enjoyed working to- gether was evident in that it never took itself too seriously and at all jtimes maintained impish grace through complete ease and natur- alness on stage. Each perform- ance showed individuality, yet no one encroached upon another. The actresses seemed to feel that they were half artist, half trouwper—a ‘good theatrical combination, this acting talent should go far. Directors Danielle Luzzatto, ’54 and Minnie Cassatt, '53 can take the credit due them for their im- portant contribution to The Affect- od Young Ladies. Third on the program was Mer- ion’s version of Lord Dunsany’s Journey of the Soul, directed by Gray Struthers, 54 and Sue Hal- perin, 53. It was gaudy and mod- ern as opposed to the period piece oreceding it. Outstanding per- formances were Mimi Sapir’s, as a fluttery little author whose flower- ing genius is woefully trodden upon; Suki Webb’s, as the stage manager with troubles, and Molly Clothes of Distinction! | DRESSES, GOWNS, SUITS MISS NOIROT Lancaster Avenue eases CELEBRATE YOUR CENTENNIAL OR BE A NIGHTLY PERENNIAL AT HAMBURG HEARTH BRYN MAWR owen somecandvoaccsmacnwaaeneae aes} Whitney’s Valet Service Shoe Repairing 24.

Cynthia Wyeth and R. Warn- er were superb as the two non- chalant businessmen; M. Liu made an adorable bellhop, and the fire- men, especially the frustrated vio- linist with the expressionless coun- tenance (N. Burpee and A. Bailey) were inimitable. The Non-Res freshmen romped through The Still Alarm with enjoyable ease and spontaneity. The judges for Saturday night were Mrs. Broughton, Mlle. Bree, Mr. Adams, Mr. Dudden, and Mr. Lattimore. The skill and enthus- iasm of the class of 1954 are aptly illustrated by these plays, which, with only one week’s rehearsal, evolved as competent, engrossing, and certainly worthwhile produc- tions.

Of the eight plays it had the largest number of charac- ters, ‘and its intenweaving of plot threads was complex enough for a much larger production.
