LI, NO. 15 ARDMORE and BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1955 Copyright, Trustees. of Bryn Mawr College, 1954 PRICE 20 CENTS Mayor Joseph Clark To Speak On City’s Welfare Problem Joseph S. Clark, mayor of the city of Philadelphia, will address the College Wednesday, March 2, at 8:15 in Goodhart auditorium. Sponsored by the League, Mayor Clark will speak on “Welfare Problems in the City of Philadel- phia.” His talk is part of a series given by the League to illustrate various social and welfare prob- lems. Described by U.S. News as a “vigorous young reformer,” Mayor Clark, a Democrat, went into office in 1951, breaking the 67-year-old Republican rule of Philadelphia. In 1952, his. coalition, composed of Democrats, liberals and independ- ents, helped Adlai Stevenson carry Philadelphia by more than 161,000 votes. However, the 1953 elections, in which the Republicans were vic- torious in Philadelphia, clearly pointed up Clark’s lack of a polit- ical machine. — Business Week has called his ad- ministration a “businessman’s ad- ministration,” and this is true in-a variety of ways. Scandals uncov- ered by a commission composed largely of businessmen in 1948 was Of Philadelphia which carried Clark into office. One of the most obvious results of Clark’s co-operation with busi- ness is the Penn Center project, which rebuilt city streets and utilities. With the exception of his clearly liberal political affiliations (he has supported the Americans for Dem- ocratic Action), Clark’s back- ground appéals to many population groups. Born into an old Philadel- phia family, he attended Harvard and the University. of Pennsyl- vania law school; during the Sec- ond World War he served as a col- onel. He had run for public~Office but once, in 1936, and then unsuc- cessfully. Clark’s other accomplishments as mayor have included a revamp- ing of Philadelphia’s budget and municipal service systems. Accord- ing to Business Week, his political future will not cease with the may- oralty of Philadelphia, and it has been said that Clark is a likely candidate for a national office, in- cluding a Senate seat. especially contributed by Nancy Houghton, Chairman, Student Curriculum. Committee The Faculty and Student Curric- ulum Committees met jointly to consider the whole question of class discussion, its place in teach- ing, its value to students, and its adaptability to different kinds and sizes of courses. The Student Com- mittee felt that it was an impor- tant part. of teaching, giving the individual student a chance to for- mulate and express her thoughts verbally and stimulating: individual evaluation of the material pre- sented. The members of the Faculty Committee raised the following questions around which the discus- sion centered. In response to the question of what was actually meant by “class discussion,” stu- dents defined the ideal discussion as a spontaneous exchange of opin- ions and ideas revolving around specific material considered in class which allowed for a differ- ence of interpretation. Is the problem of. class discus- sion more acute in elementary classes or in the advanced? — Stu- dents agreed that it was, and there was a suggestion that greater em- phasis and encouragement of dis- cussion could be made in the Freshman Comp courses., . This would perhaps offset the fact that the first two years of lecture courses “tend to “make “a student reticent about sarthetbating in dis- cussions when she reaches the ad- vanced level, a fact which the stu- dents confirmed. The Faculty and Student Com- mittees realized that a successful discussion is both the responsibil- ity of the professor in preparing | stimulating and interesting ques- tions and of the student in having thoughtfully completed the mater-} ial assigned. Various suggestions were made for the improvement-of discussions, It was mentioned that ____the_circular_arrangement-of-desks as does a small class which this presupposes. The system of class- es might be changed to include two lectures and one discussion group a week, a system which has work- ed effectively at Princeton. Anoth- er possibility was that of extend- ing ‘the list of courses which would fill the lit. requirement, permitting smaller sections where discussion would be possilbe. President McBride asked the Student Committee to make a study of general student opinion and in- terest in furthering class discus- sion to be presented through the Faculty Committee to the faculty, as a whole. In order for our re- port to be accurate, we need as many ideas and opinions as you have, so pro and con, please men- tion them to any member of the Committee or send me a note, and by all means DISCUSS them with anyone and everyone!

Jambor Ends Lectures About Bach at The week of February 14 to 18 was the occasion of a Bach Sym- posium, celebrating the “expansion of Bryn Mawr’s music department. The series of lectures, given by |Mme. Agi Jambor, was open to ‘students of the music department 'and to the faculty. Lambs”; Al Mackey, also a lead in’ last year’s maids and porters show, will sing “He’s Got the Whole’ World in His Hands”; Louis White,’ Her opening lecture on Monday, Feb 14, was a general introduction to Bach. Mme. Jambor feels that the best way to understand the composer is to play his music. Although Bach did not indicate the phrasing and tempo of his com- ‘positions, the performer can usu- aily infer this from the words, the title, or the instrument for which the work was written. She has no objection, as do many performers, to playing transcriptions, if they add to the beauty of the composi- tion, Jambor discussed phrasing, tempo, dynamics and the different ‘edi- tions. Bach is dreaded by young performers because he gives no phrasing or dynamic signs. Al- though this creates difficulties, it enables the performer to play a greater part in the “creation” of the music. According to Mme. Jambor, the Kalmus Edition of..Bach’s. works is the best available. Many of the other editions, notably the Czerny, contain additions to the original music, which hot only are falsifica- tions, but usually do not increase the beauty of the original. In discussing the Bach Poly- phony on Wednesday, Mme. Jam- bor suggested several psycholog- ical reasons for the appeal of the fugue. Its similarity to a conversation In her lecture on Tuesday, Mme. | Friday Concert between two people, the distortion of original happenings, as in a dream, or the appearance and re- appearance of something beautiful or ‘beloved, as in the childhood game of peek-a-boo, are possible explanations. sation helps most in interpreta- tion. ‘Mme. Jambor illustrated on the piano her ideas on interpretation of fugues and inventions. She em- phasized the necessity of indepen- dence and coordination of the dif- ferent voices in playing composi- tions of this sort. Keyboard music was the subject of her final lecture, Thursday, Feb- ruary 17, when she spoke about the technical problems of ornamenta- tions, trills and pedalling, She closed by saying that the purpose of music was to make communica- tion between men easier and deep- er. We must follow music with the heart as well as with the in- tellect. At the concert Friday evening in Goodhart, Mme. sented the following program: Italian Concerto. Continued on Page 5, Col. 1 The Alliance letter concern- ing government restriction of West Point and Annapolis de- bate will not be sent. Although the college favored sending the letter by a vote of 318-194, the majority of the Alliance board felt that a 62% proportion of the voters was not a great enough number ‘to permit sign- ing the College’s name, even if the. vote were recorded in the mening. The college Legislature has vot- ed to change seven previously col- lege-elected offices to class-elected. The changes. entailed amending the constitutions “of Undergrad, Alli- ance, and League. The basic reason for the changes is to make the election system less complicated and elaborate. There are, however, three general reasons for the change: 1) to shorten the election period, 2) to cut down the work of the nominating committee and, 3) to enable students: to be better informed on the candidates for the lesser offices. The new election procedures for the following offices, all of which were previously elected by the en- tire college, are as follows: Undergrad _ Common Treasurer—Candidates nominated and elected by the soph- omore class. This procedure was changed because the position of Common Treasurer is being alter- ed to include only Self-Gov. and Undergrad. The treasurers of Al- liance, League, and A.A. will han- dle the finances for their organiza- tions. .

We'd like to cut the work of the nomin- ating committee down to nothing. In short, we’d like to eliminate it altogether, as the primary offender in Bryn Mawr’s elaborately organized election system. The nominating committee seems to us undemocratic, inefficient, and unnecessary. It goes through a complicated process of selecting, checking and eliminating, without any assurance that it will come up with the best qualified candi- dates. Because it deals with the candidates through second and third hand sources, it must often rely on the reputation and personality rather than the ability of those who are run- ning. The fact that the same names appear over and over for the different campus offices would seem to verify this— that the committee, when confronted with the choice beween a lesser and better known name, will play it safe and pick the latter. The people who are interested in an office have no way of making this known to the committees. They can only hope that their name, when read out of the finding list, may be selected. Then the committee begins the job of collecting, sifting and sorting write-ups of the opinions of the friends of the candidates, thereby, dws say, assuring that only the finest survive. But when eight names are finally submitted to the class, the rule is that names can be added to the list from the floor. How risky! These names have been approved by no : hierarchy, and are probably only those of the few people who are terribly interested but somehow got left out in the scram- ble. Why not eliminate all the amount of work and bother connected with the nominating committee, and let those peo- ple who are interested nominate themselves for the various offices? If there were a limit set on the number of offices for which a person could run, for instance two, the candidates for each office would be the ones most interested ont most. able in the school. In order to make the students better acquainted with the candidates, we advocate eliminating the tradition that the candidates are never allowed to speak in their own behalf. To those who maintain that this present system assures an election that is based on thought and reason, rather than on campaign hurly-burly, or the personal appeal of the candi- date, we answer that no system could encourage less thought, for the simple reason that no. system gives you less to think about. ~""Also;candidates. now. are judged much more on person- ality and appearance than they would be if they could also}. be judged on their opinions and ideas. Why not let the indi- vidual candidates for offices hold meetings in the various halls, there discussing with reasonably small groups their “program” for the coming year, their plans for the office they -are seeking. Students could have a chance to question the dates, the candidates a chance to show their ability to 2 a scuss and handle problems such as would doubtless: arise "esi he whole lesion period old be et down tow w’ Wednesday, February 23, 1955 Letters to the Editor February 20, 1955. ‘he Editors of ‘ihe College News, woodhart Hall, Bryn Mawr College.

Yours truly, * Toni Chapel’s Efforts Achieve ‘Cloakroom Conversion’ i'o the Editor: The Chapel Committee is very pleased to announce that its read- ing room is now ready for use. The room, located next to the Common Room in Goodhart, at one time was shared by -the Chapel Committee and “Non-Resident. students. The former used it for its weekly Tues- day meetings, while it was open to the latter as a cloak room. How-: ever, whether or not history pro- gresses, the Chapel Committee has seemed to, and its expanding at- tendance necessitated a move to larger quarters for meetings, viz. the Rumpus Room. The College has since given this ex-cloak room to the Committee to be’ used as a place for quiet, thought, and reading. It has been supplied with appropriate furnish- ings and a table upon which may be found religious books (which may be signed out) and other lit- erature of interest, such as the friends’ Intelligencer and Com- monweal. From time to time books are to be added, as when Rabbi Agus gave a copy of his newest book on Judaism this fall; and whenever possible, books written by those who speak in Chapel will be placed in the room a week or two. before the service. The roo s thus far remained untitled, alth Asuggestions have ranged from “Chapel Committee Meditation Room” to “Room for Thought!” We hope that evéryone will feel welcome to make use of this room, no longer as a cloak room, but as a place to spend some quiet moments in a busy day. Phyllis Hall, ’56 ¢ week or ten days. Students would put themselves up for Current Events Hunter Reviews Russia In Period After Malenkov On February 21, Mr. Hunter, of Bryn Mawr and Haverford, gave a Current Events talk.on “Russia After Malenkov.” Mr. Hunter “set the stage” for his discussion by listing first the men most important in the crucial period between Stalin’s death on March 5, 19538, and February 10, 1955. Within this period he took up three important questions his audi- ence would presumably want an- pate taking into consideration current political speculation. Fi- nally, Mr. Hunter came to what. he called some “unwarranted conclu- sions.” The six most important men were Molotov, important in foreign affairs; Beria, Minister of. Interior until his recent and controversial death; Malenkov, recently demot- ed; Krushchev, the party man who is said to pull the strings; Bulgan- in, the new premier, who«may’ prove to be merely a figurehead; and Zhukov, popular representa- tive of the army, whose importance is purely military. Beria’s Death During the two-year “testing process,” Mr. Hunter outlined some important events. After Stalin’s death, Malenkov moved into the two top party posts, but resigned the key post to Khrushchev after a week. The next event was Beria’s death on- June 26. I 53 there were two outstand- ing’ speeches, the first by Malen- kov, outlining the general policy of the U.S.S.R., the second by office, there would follow a week of conversing and discuss- ing in the halls. At the end of the week one whole day could be set aside for the elections. Instead of the extremely slow procedure of voting for one or two candidates at a time, which dampens any enthusiasm that one might possibly have once had, printed ballots, listing the candidates for all offices, could be circulated. At a given period at a polling place, students would mark their ballots. Besides shortening the election period, it would arouse interest in the election, and make for a more thoughtful one. oe We realize that it is easy to offer an entire new system, claiming that it will solve all the existing evils. This one ob- viously has its faults. But it does solve the problem of get- ting first-rate candidates, and of making the election period '}at Bryn Mawr a pleasure, instead of a pain.

The first of the three questions was, “who has political power now?”, Mr.:Hunter does not see how we can possibly answer this definitely, for the party members themselves cannot. “What does this mean for Soviet Foreign Policy?” was the second topic. Under the new regime, in spite of the public emphasis on light industry, there has been a marked decrease in appropriations for this, as opposed to an increase in appropriations for heavy indus- try. This is obviously mot a reas- suring shift. Two Year Test As to the Soviet domestic policy, this emphasis on consumer goods has been part of a two-year exper- iment to increase labor produc- tion by improved morale and or- ganization. So far, this’has not been partic- ularly successful, and Mr. Hunter believes that the policy on this subject will probably continue to change every three years. In addi- tion to this problem, the basic food supply, while adequate, is not growing as the government thinks it should. Mr Hunter’s main “unwarrant- ed conclusions” are that, first, the U.S.S.R. is concentrating on heavy industry chiefly from fear, and -| that we should compete with them, not in that field, but in technolog- ical aid to underdeveloped coun- tries. Mr..Hunter believes that Khrushchev and the Soviet army will sustain a rapid growth; this is a real worry, and raises the se- rious question of what our rate of growth should be. In conclusion, Mr. Hunter feels that we should definitely be dissatisfied with . our present rate, and should concen- trate on increasing it, instead of | “bravely going sideways,” as we now are. f Page Two ~O —_> THE COLLEGE NEWS THE COLLEGE NEWS FOUNDED IN 1914 Published weekly during the College Year (except during Thanksgiving, Christmas and .Easter holidays, and during examination weeks) in the interest of Bryn Mawr Pt ne at the Ardmore Printing Company; Ardmore, Pa., and et fe Mawr Col fs: The College News is fu protected by ‘copyright.

He is the most revolting dog I have ever met, and I’ve met many. He is a traitor, leaving his owners and hanging around the men I hate. He is a coward. When we meet he doesn’t even dare to fight, we just walk around each other and leave. But he curses me most ungentle- manly when I am in a car and can’t get at him, Dogs that gre all black can’t be any good. Yours truly, * Toni Chapel’s Efforts Achieve ‘Cloakroom Conversion’ i'o the Editor: The Chapel Committee is very pleased to announce that its read- ing room is now ready for use. The room, located next to the Common Room in Goodhart, at one time was shared by -the Chapel Committee and “Non-Resident. students. The former used it for its weekly Tues- day meetings, while it was open to the latter as a cloak room. How-: ever, whether or not history pro- gresses, the Chapel Committee has seemed to, and its expanding at- tendance necessitated a move to larger quarters for meetings, viz. the Rumpus Room. The College has since given this ex-cloak room to the Committee to be’ used as a place for quiet, thought, and reading. It has been supplied with appropriate furnish- ings and a table upon which may be found religious books (which may be signed out) and other lit- erature of interest, such as the friends’ Intelligencer and Com- monweal. From time to time books are to be added, as when Rabbi Agus gave a copy of his newest book on Judaism this fall; and whenever possible, books written by those who speak in Chapel will be placed in the room a week or two. before the service. The roo s thus far remained untitled, alth Asuggestions have ranged from “Chapel Committee Meditation Room” to “Room for Thought!” We hope that evéryone will feel welcome to make use of this room, no longer as a cloak room, but as a place to spend some quiet moments in a busy day. Phyllis Hall, ’56 ¢ week or ten days. Students would put themselves up for Current Events Hunter Reviews Russia In Period After Malenkov On February 21, Mr. Hunter, of Bryn Mawr and Haverford, gave a Current Events talk.on “Russia After Malenkov.” Mr. Hunter “set the stage” for his discussion by listing first the men most important in the crucial period between Stalin’s death on March 5, 19538, and February 10, 1955. Within this period he took up three important questions his audi- ence would presumably want an- pate taking into consideration current political speculation. Fi- nally, Mr. Hunter came to what. he called some “unwarranted conclu- sions.” The six most important men were Molotov, important in foreign affairs; Beria, Minister of. Interior until his recent and controversial death; Malenkov, recently demot- ed; Krushchev, the party man who is said to pull the strings; Bulgan- in, the new premier, who«may’ prove to be merely a figurehead; and Zhukov, popular representa- tive of the army, whose importance is purely military. Beria’s Death During the two-year “testing process,” Mr. Hunter outlined some important events. After Stalin’s death, Malenkov moved into the two top party posts, but resigned the key post to Khrushchev after a week. The next event was Beria’s death on- June 26. I 53 there were two outstand- ing’ speeches, the first by Malen- kov, outlining the general policy of the U.S.S.R., the second by office, there would follow a week of conversing and discuss- ing in the halls. At the end of the week one whole day could be set aside for the elections. Instead of the extremely slow procedure of voting for one or two candidates at a time, which dampens any enthusiasm that one might possibly have once had, printed ballots, listing the candidates for all offices, could be circulated. At a given period at a polling place, students would mark their ballots. Besides shortening the election period, it would arouse interest in the election, and make for a more thoughtful one. oe We realize that it is easy to offer an entire new system, claiming that it will solve all the existing evils. This one ob- viously has its faults. But it does solve the problem of get- ting first-rate candidates, and of making the election period '}at Bryn Mawr a pleasure, instead of a pain.

The first of the three questions was, “who has political power now?”, Mr.:Hunter does not see how we can possibly answer this definitely, for the party members themselves cannot. “What does this mean for Soviet Foreign Policy?” was the second topic. Under the new regime, in spite of the public emphasis on light industry, there has been a marked decrease in appropriations for this, as opposed to an increase in appropriations for heavy indus- try. This is obviously mot a reas- suring shift. Two Year Test As to the Soviet domestic policy, this emphasis on consumer goods has been part of a two-year exper- iment to increase labor produc- tion by improved morale and or- ganization. So far, this’has not been partic- ularly successful, and Mr. Hunter believes that the policy on this subject will probably continue to change every three years. In addi- tion to this problem, the basic food supply, while adequate, is not growing as the government thinks it should. Mr Hunter’s main “unwarrant- ed conclusions” are that, first, the U.S.S.R. is concentrating on heavy industry chiefly from fear, and -| that we should compete with them, not in that field, but in technolog- ical aid to underdeveloped coun- tries. Mr..Hunter believes that Khrushchev and the Soviet army will sustain a rapid growth; this is a real worry, and raises the se- rious question of what our rate of growth should be. In conclusion, Mr. Hunter feels that we should definitely be dissatisfied with . our present rate, and should concen- trate on increasing it, instead of | “bravely going sideways,” as we now are. f Page Four 9 THE COLLEGE NEWS we - Wednesday, February 2 23, 1955 Stones From A Glass House By Harriette Solow, °56 The best reason for the control of marriage by law is to protect future generations. Marriage and having children are related partly because it is difficult to raise a child properly, although it is easy enough to con- ceive one. 10-15% of the popula- tion is sterile, however. With this in mind, the decision by Judge Gibson Gorman that arti- ficial insemination, in which a don- or other than the husband is in-| volved, is “contrary to good mor- als” and “adultery on the part of the wife,” conflicts with common sense, The Chicago judge’s verdict last December stigmatizes the le- gitimacy of between 10,000 to 50,- 000 children conceived by this method and possibly indirectly cur- tailed its use. Two Physical Factors The advantages behind our very practical social code answer his de- cision, .Marriage provides for two important physical factors, a good hereditary background and the ab- sence of venereal diseases. After birth it provides for a fairly se- cure economic environment and the company of two adults who, in ad- dition to affection, offer the child a variety of experiences as only two people can. Artificial insemination is con- ' sistent with the first two aims. The ddnor is checked for health and the absence of undesirable hereditary characteristics. This is as much as most people investigate a prospec- tive husband and probably more “since it is done without emotional involvement. In addition, donors ate matched to husbands with sim- - jlar characteristics so that the child looks like its parents. Ideal Situation Bringing up a child conceived by this method is identical to what it would have been under ordinary circumstances. If the husband gives his consent (as suggested by the Canadian court in 1921) and the wife is willing to do her share, it is obvious that the prospective parents want the child—the ideal situation. Actually living with the child is a vital part of parenthood and is certainly the more time consuming and difficult part of it. By deciding that in the eyes of society the relationship between). ‘George Doornbos and his son Da-.

Decision Explained The only other~possible regsons for his decision are_1) that/there are many orphghs born under ‘nor- mal’ circumstances whose need for tion should be filled before ebple who have to make a special leffdrt to have children of their own ‘do so; Or 2) that the present state of world conditions is so bad that it is unfair to bring children into the world if a special effort is nec- essary to do so. Either of these arguments could be applied to having children in general. In addition, a judge would jhave no grounds for using them, as conscience, this decision. As a precaution against this kind of decision (each state makes its-own laws on the subject), par- ents have officially adopted their children born by artificial insem- ination and doctors have mixed semen from the husband and the donor to insure the absence of proof of fatherhood. The only other decision on this subject was made in 1947 when the New York State Supreme Court ruled that a child conceived by ar- tificial insemination was not ille- gitimate.
