° oS ee THE COLLEGE NEWS Page Three 4 Princeton Showers B. M. Chorus With Vocal and Social Weekend by Barbara Bettman ’49 Singing with Princeton was an interesting experience. It was def- initely a vocal weekend, though for many of the girls it was quite social also, and for almost every- one it was very wet most of the time. The travel situation was most unusual and extremely involved. Two buses left Bryn Mawr (half an hour late) Saturday morning, followed by “the oral people” an hour later. After a “delicious” lunch of so- called chicken a la king (the king is dead, long live the king), the chorus rehearsed for four hours, spending most of the time making wrong entrances. Mr. Weinrich, di- rector of the Princeton chorus, does not believe in directing his choruses during a performance. At this point the chorus had supper with Princeton, though af- ter lunch many of the members chose to seek another—any other— place in which to dine. Some of the girls stayed at Princeton, hav- ing optimistically reserved. rooms in advance. Their optimism proved to be well-founded, as almost ev- eryone who stayed saw Princeton night life in some form. “Will too much beer hurt my voice?” seemed to be the universal question, though lack of sleep was a close second. It rained slightly (a euphemism) hampering activities, especially those of a couple who had gone canoeing. High spot of the concert Sun- day afternoon was Mr. Weinrich’s donning of his shoes, coyly hidden behind the organ. The mass was followed by what will probably be henceforth referred to as the Great Princeton Downpour—one way, at least, to get one’s money’s worth out of the academic gown. Two bus- es left at five-thirty, leaving be- Drexel Smears B.M. in Baseball Bryn Mawr, May 9th. “Pleasant- ly smeared” goes down as the of- ficial comment on Thursday’s var- sity baseball game. Drexel 15, Bryn Mawr 7 is recorded in the score- book. Hardball, Bryn Mawr’s usual forte and the alleged despair of Drexel, was played during the first half of the game in which Drexel lead by seven runs; during the next half, playing softball, Bryn Mawr managed to catch up as the team scored four runs to their op- ponent’s five. Joanne Mott ’47, Captain and Shortstop caught several difficult fly balls, while Carolyn Seamans 47 pitched very well. , The Drexel team showed great accuracy in fielding and excellent catching. hind not over twelve people, while the third bus, scheduled to depart at 9:30, simply never arrived, and the trip ended by train for those individuals who had wished to pro- long their stay at Princeton. The general expression of opin- ion was that “everytime we got inside it stopped raining”, but Girl- ish ‘Ardor Will Not be Dampened, and the proverbial good time was had by all.

Bryn Mawrtyrs can observe the operation of a basic unit of con- sumer cooperation in the Main Line Cooperative in Bryn Mawr village. In a growing’ number of American colleges and universi- ties’ students are gaining knowl- edge of the movement on the one hand through the operation of co- operatives supplying their own consumption needs — books, sup- plies, dry-cleaning and other serv- ices, housing, réecreation—and on the other hand through the inclu- sion of the study of cooperative principles in the economics courses of the institution. In _the Philadelphia area co- operators are running a growing number of food stores, a funeral “co-op”, an optical “co-op” (1218 Chestnut Street) and a play “co- op”. At nearby Moorestown a housing cooperative is organized and ready to build as soon as ma- terials become available. Official spokesman for the Amer- ican Cooperative movement is the Cooperative League, U. S. A. with offices ,in Chicago, New York and Washington. The constituent re- gional office for this area is the Eastern ‘Cooperative League at—44 West 148rd Street, New York City. 30.
