A thorough examination of this question, and possibly some answers to it, will be presented in am all-day major on Saturday, ‘April 8. ‘Conference, tobe held by Alliance, Ants Council; Interfaith and League, Speakers for the Conference, representing three genres of “the intellectual,” aré-Russel Lynes, Elmer-Hutchinsson, and Germaine Breé. Mr. Lynes, the “generalist” of the group, is an editor of Harpers and a well-known expositor of the high-brow, low4brow schism in con- temporary America. Elmer Hut- chinsson, a scientist, is Director of the American Institute of Physics, and Germaine Breé, the final speaker, is a poet and critic. The (Conference, entitled The Role of the Intellectual in Amer- ican Society, will consist of three major addresses, a luncheon for speakers and students, and an afternoon panel discussion, Prep- aration for it will begin early next semester, and committees to han- dle publicity, hostessing, and pro- gram editing will be organized at that time.

Starting with the compound Cs6H4N20, benzofurazan a combina- tion of two six— and five—mem- bered rings, he first explained the structure of the next in series, CeH4N202, benzofurazan oxide. Then he asked whether the series may be extended to CeH+N203, benzofurazan dioxide. The prob- lem is not one of synthesis, but analysis, sincd such a compound exists, but had been given another structure called orthonitrosoben- zene, composed of one benzene ring with a nitro and nitroso group at- tached. Granted that the aromatic nit- roso compound exists in a solution, the next step concerns the ‘struc- ture of the molecule in solid form. Mr. Mallory then rephrased the question and asked whether the chlorine-substituted ‘benzofurazan dioxide eristed. To answer this he again attempt- ed to synthesize it, starting with the nitro group-chlorine substitut- ed amine and its isomer, These he oxidized to produce the correspond- ing nitroso compounds. If the chloro-substituted dioxide existed, either isomet ‘in solid form should produce it in an equilibrium reac- tion. If not, each isomer will pro- duce its own dimer. For this reac- tiom two different compounds were _produced, proving the structure of the chloro-substituted compound M. Maurin Reads Significant Works Of Modern Poets Among the events in 1960 in the field of French literature were the deaths of two poets. In tribute to these writers, Supervielle and Re- verdy, M. Mario Maurin, Chairman of the Bryn Mawr French Depart- ment, gave a reading and a dis- cussion of their poetry Monday evening in the Ely Room. ‘Supervielle enjoyed both liter- ary and personal success during his lifetime, but Reverdy was al- most unknown. He lived more in silence and in secret. The later part of his life was spent in par- tial seclusion near a monastery. Although the move was not a total acceptance of the religious life, it was inspired by a great longing for faith. His poetry is marked by an ab- sence. There is nothing distinct in it, One can imagine people but not faces, sounds but not voices. One feels as if something has hap- pened and yet cannot say precise- ly what it is. It is in total nega- tion, in a grey world that Reverdy expresses himself, Although a member of the same generation, Supervielle had a dif- ferent ‘childhood from Reverdy’s.

The presentation, spon- sored by the French Department through the auspices of Miss Car- oline Newton, was in memory of the former head of the Bryn Mawr French Department, a close friend of Mr. Dieckman, Diderot Interpreter Mr. Dieckman, the foremost in- tenpreter of Diderot, discussed “Re- ligious Thought of Enlightenment.” He introduced his topic by stating that “the antithesis between re- ligion and thought in the Enlight- enment is a very simple concept.” One must realize, however, how important is the. tradition from whch a new period seeks to disen- gage itself. Behind the scientism and ration- alism of the 18th Century writers, were the metaphysical and relig- ious interpretations of their pre- cursors. The discussions of free- dom versus determinism, nature, and the immortality of the soul, etc., were fundamentally based on the religious thought which these writers inherited. Nor were these topics discussed for the previously decided purpose of rejecting them. Revision Needed “The American scholarly view of the Enlightenment is in need of revision.” Mr. Dieckman believes that we should consider three class- es of precursors: those now in our geneology; those the writers them- selves considered important; and those with whose ideas they were Continued on Page 6, Col. 5 bers of the student body. Student Criticizes HUAC Procedure The Civil Rights Committee and Undergrad last Wednesday eve- ning presented Bob ‘Walters, a spokesman of the National Stu- dent Association, who discussed the House Un-American Activities Committee and presented the case for its abolition. The Committee, he explained, is in a unique position; it has all the powers of a Grand Jury with none of its restrictions. It differs from a conventional court, in that the accused cannot call witnessse in his own defense, face his accusers, or even. see the accusations made against him, Moreover, in contrast to the secrecy maintained in Grand Jury Proceedings, public exposure is a. prime tool of the Committee, and public scorn its most effective sanction. In examining witnesses the Com- mittee uses tactics which are to- tallyunfair, says Mr. Walters. By browbeating and repeating ques- tions they trick the defendant into unintended revelations.

These meetings have been open to any interested-mem- The committee’s proposals will constitute the agenda of a Legis- lature meeting on Thursday, February 9. There will be a required session for Legislature-members on the previous Monday, February 6, at 7:15 in the Common Room, to acquaint them with the agenda and with basic parliamentary procedure. The agenda will concern the election procedure for the all-college elected offices of Self-Gov and Undergrad, the two organizations of which everyone is an ipso facto member. Election systems of 34 other colleges and information provided by the National Student Association were considered in .ithe develop- ment of the committee’s report. An effort was made to find in these materials ideas pertinent to Bryn Mawr’s special situation, with par- ticular reference to the dual na- ture of. our governmental struc- ture. The major change suggested by the committee’s report concerns nominations for the two ipso facto Presidencies. In the proposed system straw-balloting is replaced by a procedure under which any student may submit suggestions to a committee consisting of the Vice-President of Undergrad, the First Senior to Self-Gov, and the four Class Presidents. After check- ing with the candidates to ascer- tain their willingness to run, this committee draws up a list of all the suggested names. At this point candidates suggested for more than one office make a choice in order to avoid overlapping of slates. The next step is a college-wide primary, the results.of which com- prise. the final slates. The election of the officers from—these slates remains similar in procedure to the present preferential system, which, the committee feels, is fair- est to the individual voter since, if her first choice is eliminated, she has a continuing voice in the elec- tion.

For the next two weeks blue-books full of them will be turned out-at-an.alarming rate and with them the solid satis- faction which comes only~of-tieing.up a course in asterick- studded, and Occasionally incoherent, but at least temporar- ily definitive “answers,” For the exiting News Board, how- ever, semester’s end promises no such solid satisfaction—at least not where News queries are concerned. The end of a full-seméster of campus scanning has left us with basic cam- pus questions whose solutions even now elude ‘the finality of -blue-book_summation._ How, for example, we wondered and are wondering still, does the library-type study necessary for attaining the skill and understanding that make an active adult citizen valuable. to hi8 community compare as a social virtue with the kind of political activity (picketing, petitioning, etc.) which makes a) ‘gtudent feel himself a valuable citizen?—-Which should get the priority, preparing for greater social responsibilities or accepting immediate ones? How should a campus of individuals be expected to re- act to a project or program which depends on group backing, or, on a broader scale, how should an independent campus, which is proud of its uniqueness and independence, react to a sweeping inter-campus movement? How, if independence is retained, can the indifference and ineffectiveness it seems to imply be justified in face of inequalities to be righted and problems to be solved? Or, if it can’t, how can the group or movement to be support- ed in the fight against these injustices be intelligently and independently selected? How can decisions about the integrity of a movement’s | leadership and value of its cause-be made on the basis of lit- erature and evidence supplied by that movement? How, in short, can we be effective and useful citizens outside of organ- ized student groups, and, if we can’t, how can we continue to make decisions independently, and act creatively and indi- vidually, while cooperating with others for effective action. These are not easy questions, but they are basic. They must, of course, be answered by individuais rather than for the campus as_a whole, and in respect to degree rather than affirmation or negation of principles. They are questions which rightly should be tied up blue-book ‘style as political activity becomes increasingly important on campus, but, knowing this, we are, nonetheless, delighted that we won’t be handed any such cerulean tomes as we leave office. Some Heartening Statistics Some interesting and rather heartening statistics have been unearthed by the Bureau of Recommendations about the now historical Class of 1960. Today, six months after graduation, 46% of the.class is engaged in graduate study, and of the 47% who are already working, 16 are in the teach- ing profession. Compared with similar figures for the Class of 1951, 23% of whom were in graduate study and 5 work- ing as teachers, 60’s percentage of the academically-immers- ed is doubly encouraging. The trend toward more graduate. study which it indicates may be the result of more available financial aid, the increasing demand for students with ad- vanced degrees, or simply a rising level of interest; at any rate, it says something significant about intellectual excite- ment at the undergraduate level in Bryn Mawr and some- thing hopeful for society as a whole. The increase in the number of teachers is also worth noting. The shortage of |: qualified students entering the field of education has been long and loudly bemoaned; it is delightful to see, even in a spot tally such as:this, a definite trend among Bryn Mawr stu- dents toward setting right this too-long decried deficiency.

Be- cause of thns the,film becomes a real and wonderful adventure, Various Levels supernatural. The Magician, now playing at the Wayne Avenue Playhouse in Germantown, may be viewed on various levels. Essentially it is the story of a troupe of so-called magicians, who must perform their tricks before a skeptical chief of police, docto rand official in a city in Sweden. The central figure of the group is “Dr.”. Vogler, who, after having been ridiculed by his viewers, gets. even with them by making the doctor think that he, the magician, is dead and then by coming back to life after the post- mortem, The story ends happily when the magician, about to leave the city as a disgraced pauper, is ordered to the royal court in Stock- holm to perform for the king. Mood Created The film is as powerful in creat- ing a mood as it is in presenting a plot. It begins in a lonely wood where the magician and his com- panions have paused to rest.

According to Mrs. Martha M. Diez, Adviser to Foreign Students, the unusual- ly great proportion of foreign stu- now ratio in the Graduate 5 os about 6% %, with the great- ent political emphasis on such ac- ber of scholarships, including one complete scholarship offered by the student body. Foreign Reputation The Graduate School, the pos- session of which makes Bryn Mawr unique among women’s colleges, has also contributed greatly to our international reputation, It makes possible a high-caliber faculty whose members do research of world-wide interest, and it produc- es _PhJD.-holders.. who teach...in many nations. As a result, Bryn Mawr is better known abroad than in the United States. : Problem Solver The.fascinatingly varied tasks which Mrs. Diez performs each day are evidence of the special problems which arise when a stu- dent takes up life in a strange en- vironment. Bryn Mawr is fortun- ate, however, in having had a great deal of. experience with such Magician Exploresthe Supernatural: Bergman's Movie ing, the emphasis upon the mys- terious quiet of the woods and the striking of slow, individual notes on a guitar. Thereafter the preservation of the mood rests with Dr. Vogler. When he wears his false beard and make-up and is the mute, tortured magician, the film is full of the puzzling conflict inside him. When ne acts as nimself the tone of the movie is much more real. Tne contrast between the two moods is clearly seen at the end. Dr. Vogler, as tne magician, comes back to life atter “dying” ‘ind, in a harrowing scene, haunts the doc- tor, who is trapped’ in the attic. A moment later Vogler appears witnout nis magician’s guise and begs the doctor and his friends for money for tne performance. Query Into Supernatural The Magicjan, however, is neith- er a mood nor a story; it is an in- vestigation of' man’s ibelief in the supernatural. When Dr, Vogler acts his role of magician, all those around thim, especially he himself, beiieve in nis power and feel the presence of mysterious forces. The film seems to suggest that man readily credits powers beyond his control because he wants to. He enjoys the fear of the supernat- ural and the sense of security which proceeds from a belief in the existence of forces greater than himself. The servants and the hostess in the house where the magicians perform are all eager to believe that Dr. Vogler can pro- vide them with love potions or, in the case of the hostess, explain the divine meaning behind a child’s death, Laughing at Mankind Perhaps, having discovered how susceptible man is to superstition, Bergman is laughing at mankind in his film, for his changes from the mysterious to the everyday are so abrupt that the audience almost feels ashamed for the ‘horror they experieced a few moments ago. However, Bergman is certainly concerned with supernatural him- self as is suggested by his show- ing the death of a drunken actor whom the magicians have taken in. As he dies, the actor suddenly starts in terror, presumably of what he sees ahead. He says; “We move deeper and deeper into the darkness, The movement is the only truth,” and this suggests what Sérgman seems to consider a more realistic view of life; nran may, he says, complicate his life with ideas Continued on Page 5, Col. 4 B.

This zone was established by the the Korean War in 1953; it is 4000 meters wide and extends across the Korean peninsula The DMZ is divided by the Military Demar- cation Line, the dividing line be- tween North and South Korea. No military activity is permitted in the DMZ, except for military po- lice patrols and Joint Observer Team meetings. The Joint Secur- ity Area, commonly spoken of as Panmunjom, was created from both halves of the DMZ; the Military Armistice Commission meets here. This commission is composed of five senior officers, three of whom must be of the rank of general, from the United Nations Com- mand, and another corresponding five from the Korean People’s Army—the Communists. The UNC delegation is composed of a repre- sentative from each of the U.S. military services. plus a delegate from the Republic of Korea and England; each delegation is head- ed by a Senior Member who is its spokesman. The purpose of MAC meetings is ultimately to unify Korea, and more immediately to settle border disputes and infringe- ments of the Armistice; the meet- ings may be called by either side. The Commission has met at Pan- munjom for seven years; during that time not a single issue has been settled, Open Meetings We attended the 123rd MAC meeting, on July 27, the Seventh Anniversary of the Signing of the Armistice.

The set-up includes four sound-proofed booths where the listener can hear his own voice as well as the master tape, and twenty chairs, whose oc- cupants can tune in on any one of four channels being broadcast by master recorders: Reference Library Use of the lab is intended in no sense to duplicate class work.

Perhaps Pat is lucky, but then again, on reconsideration of the power of public opinion, mono-Syllabic Mrs. Nixon never would have done. Nor Emily, it sort of rolls under the tongue too much.

During our most recent stay in Brazil,--'my younger brother hunted with Fath- er. They killed three jaguars; my spear, helped father ‘pin them down at the end.” Sasha described a jaguar hunt. “The natives tell us “if jaguars are known to be tn tthe area.

They are relatively small, from about seven to nine inches long, and have sharp teeth which interlock, The water boils when they gather in a mob -| to destroy something. After com- pletely devouring their prey, they turn upon one another in their frenzy. When taking cattle across a. river, cowboys usually kill one ‘cow for the piranhas. to eat, so that the rest of the herd can cross in safety.” Sasha described Brazil’s climate briefly. “The rainy season is ter- rible. The whole area is flooded, except for little patches of dry ground where the ranchers have built their houses, We paddle in canoets over former foot trails. The mosquitoes are especially bad. Winter, the dry season, is much nicer.” Adoration “Summarizing her feelings about life in Brazil, Sasha exclaimed, “I adore it! It really isn’t as danger- |}ous as people think. The animals usualy won’t bother you if you ‘|don’t bother them.” Two biographies have been writ- ten of Sasha’s father: Tiger Man and Tigreio. Another book, Jungle Wife, concerns Mrs, Siemel’s life.

Glamour Begins Search at Bryn Mawr For Best-Dressed Collegian in ‘America Asa special tribute to the fashion consciousness of the Bryn Mawr student body, Glamour magazine has asked the college to participate in its fifth annual “Ten Best Dress- ed Girls in America Contest.” Bryn Mawrters, known for the sleekness of their gym tunics and sweat shirts as well as for the delight they take in dressing formally for all meals including breakfast, have merited the magazine’s attention despite the incomprehensible fact that none of the victors in the past five years has come from this school. Champagne & Recognition The incentives for students to enter the contest are numerous., Each winner will receive a two- week expense paid visit to New York, which will finish with “a gala Champagne Cotillion.” Gla- mour also promises the winners’ colleges national recognition in its August issue. The method by which the stu- dents are to select their best dress- ed colleague is not specified. To date, suggested methods have in- cluded drawing straws, playing a prolonged game of Russian rou- lette and choosing the most ele- gantly attired participant in a 2:00.a.m. fire drill.

This has resulted in a strange situation, for everywhere in-the world except in Korea the Czechs and Poles are our “friends.” The NNSC meets weekly in its own conference hut (at a round table, signifying equality and neu- trality) to review the reports sub- mitted by both sides on the in- crease or decrease of military strength, The NNSC is almost completely ineffective because the KPA refuses to cooperate—the meetings are a mere formality, and last ten to fifteen minutes each week. We were told of one occa- sion when the NNSC knew that the Communists had shipped in several hundred new jets to their air4base in North Korea; that week the Communist report consisted of a listing of several jeeps that had overturned. Courage, Spirit, Humor Perhaps the only encouraging jaspect of the trip to Panmunjon was a visit to the Swedish camp in the- DMZ. In spite of the frus- trating and farcical nature of their jobs, these men have managed to retain a kind of high courage and spirit and humor. They had dec- orated their mess hall with the col- | orful provincial shields of Sweden; the flowers at their camp were brighter and stronger than any I had seen in Seoul. They had built the traditional Swedish bell tower, simple and beautiful, where they Summer Programs Open To Americans - Classroom Abroad Several programs for European study are being offered to Amer- ican students this summer. One group, Classrooms Abroad, offers courses held in Germany, Austria, France and Spain, Also sponsor- ing summer study sessions are two Austrian and four British uni- vergities, Students enrolled in the Class- rooms Albroad program will. spend seven weeks in a European’ city to study the language, culture and civilization of the particular coun- try they are in. Small classes of 6 to 10 students will read’ classical and modern texts, the daily press and discuss contemporary - -prob- lems, and study conversation and composition, pronunciation and grammar. The classes will be un- der the supervision of American and native professors. Lectures on history and literature will also be given. with outstanding personalities and will participate in all academic and social activities with the stu- dents of the country, They will have full auditing privileges at the host universities. Living with host families, they will learn much about the customs of the country. A knowledge of the language of the country visited is not a pre- requisite. Dr. Hirschback, an assistant pro- fessor at the University of Minne- sota will lead one of the German- language groups. Other group di- rectors include professors from Yale, Denison University, Haver- ford College, Queens College and the University of Georgia, Cornell and the University of Massachu- setts. Full information on the program can be obtained by writing to Classrooms Abroad, 4171 Univer- sity Station, Minneapolis 14, Min- nesota. The courses sponsored by the British Universities are mainly for graduate students but some undergraduates will be accepted. At Stratford-upon-Avon the sub- ject will be Elizabethan drama; at the University of London the course will be the study of English Literature, Art, and music of the 17th and 18th Centuries, using materials preserved in London’s buildings, galleries, and records; at Oxford the subject will be Eng- lish history, literature and the arts from 1870 to the present. The course at Edinburgh School will feature political and economic his- tory, philosophy and literature of Britain from 1559 to 1789. . The British program will cost approximately $254 which includes board, residence and tuition for six weeks. The inclusive charge for the Austrian program is $225. A few full scholarships are avail- able for both programs.

The fact that it is individual mem- bers of the Committee who are evil, rather than the Committee itself, is, he says, no coincidence; the committee attracts a certain type of Congressman, and so even with new membership it could not change appreciably in nature. “A Bastion to Democracy” Although many Congressmen per- sonally oppose the Committee, its abolition is not immediately fore- seeable. Groups like the American Legion and Daughters of the American Revolution, who consid- er the Committee a bastion of Democrocy, hold too many votes for any Congressman to risk alien- ating them. Liberal organizations, like N. S. A. and the American Civil Liberties Union, are there- fore launching campaigns of “ed- ucation”, to encourage opponents of the HUA to write their con- gressmen letting them know of support for abolition of the com- mittee. Representative James Roosevelt is going to spearhead the attack on it by asking for a cut in its current appropriation. Such a cut would considerably cur- tail its power, and Walters strong- ly advises that Congressmen be made aware of public feeling against the HUAC, so that they fee] they can safely support this move to ‘weaken it.

Page-1,-Col.-5 molecule will absorb light which is vibrating at idential frequencies he determined the structure, first of the chloro-substituted dimers, then of the original dimer postu- lated previously. Plotting the fre- quency of light against the per- cent absorbed.by each dimer, he found that all had similar absorp- tion peaks; therefore, that the proper structure of the original was indeed the dimer. Then Mr. Mallory proved the ex- ustence of the. sturcture he had postulated. The chloro-substitut- ed dimers are dissolved in a high- boiling-point solvent, and ‘then heated until the equilibrium reac- tion produces the momomers, When the solvent has evaported and the residual solid is examined, t is found to contain one-half dim- er and one-half of the other. What the observed, Mr. Mallory decided, was that one monomer converted to the other by passing through an intermediate which had to have the double ring dioxide structure he postulated. Thus, he proved the existence of the diox- ide compound he had suggested. It’s Not Spring Yet!

He often treat- ed the subject of Europe and Am- erica. His happy childhood, however, hid an ill body. His concern with the physical body and heart is translated into his poetry by a fear that everything may break when touched. This feeling leads him to avoid any extremes. He is, for example, neither really a pes- simist.nor really an optimist, M. Maurin closed the reading with a few remarks about M. Char- pier who will be visiting lecturer in French next semester, M. Char- pier is a young French poet. His early work is clearly marked by the influence of St. John Perse who recently won the Nobel Prize for literature. M. Maurin also read. from some of M.
