VOL. Lil, NO. 5 ARDMORE and BRYN MAWR, PA., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1955 Bryn Mawr College, Copyright, Trustees of 1955 PRICE 20 CENTS J. R. Oppenheimer Talks On Influences Of Science On Three Phases Of Life J. Robert Oppenheimer, -world- renowned physicist and Director of the Institute for Advanced Studies at Princeton, was the speaker at Haverford Collection on Tuesday. He addressed not only Haverford students but a capacity crowd of outsiders, including many from Bryn Mawr. Beauty in science is the “discov- ery of order and simplicity and union and harmony,” said Dr. Op- penheimer. Yet we shall not have anything like total knowledge. In fact, at present, science is pro- gressing at such an incredible rate that it is impossible even to learn and know what is really impor- tant. ‘Dr. Oppenheimer discussed the influence -of science on the mater- ial, the political and the intellec- tual or cultural side of individuals. “Science, as properly conceived, is a humanity” and should be treated as such, he said. ‘In a material Sense, science has given man ‘power, although man will always be limited in his power and freedom. “A little power, a little knowledge, a little freedom we’ve always had—there are lim- its, but they have been sharpened”, These limits have been sharpen- ed a great deal since the days when Franklin in Philadelphia gave an impetus _to.the formal study of seience in the United States. The existence of new weapons, said Dr. Oppenheimer, who him- self was instrumental in the de- velopment of the atomic bomb, is inevitable. They are not bad and science is not bad. Yet no one knows if there would be life after a total war utilizing these new weapons. This technological power is giv- B. M. C. Selects Trustee, Director *., John §. Price III, of 824 Buck Lane, Haverford, has been elected a Trustee and Diregtor of Bryn Mawr College, it has been an- noymced by Charles J. Rhoads, President of theTrustees. The terms of the will of the founder of the College provide that a Trustee must be a member of the Society of Friends. Mr. Price is a member of the Haverford Meeting. An alumnus of Princeton Uni- versity, Class of 1944, Mr. Price, 82, is now the youngest member on the Bryn Mawr Board. Formerly with the Oxford Press in New York and later with the Heintz Manufacturing Company of ~Philadelphia,..Mr...Price is now a manufacturers’ representative with offices at 1414 South Penn Square. He is married to the former Martha Stokes, who is now enroll- ed at Bryn Mawr-as a member of the Class of 1958. Mrs. Price’s father, the late Mr. J. Stogdell Stokes, was a Trustee of the Col- lege until his death. The Prices have four children, three sons and a daughter. Mr. Price is on the Haverford Friends School Committee, a mem- ber of the Philadelphia Advisory Committee for the Metropolitan Opera, and the Princeton Club of Philadelphia. | en-to no one in particular—no_ one of us has to determine the course of human disaster; not even the president of the United States can ‘control the power of science. Even if the whole world were modelled after the United States it is not certain that disastrous deci- sions would not be made. “It is not an easy time, and in this time it is a help that we can be friends and brothers.” Dr. Oppenheimer spoke on Tues- day and Wednesday afternoons to smaller groups composed of phys- ics and politics majors. Editors Announce Merger Of Revues Counterpoint and the Haverford Revue will definitely merge, at least on a temporary basis, editors of the two literary magazines have announced, The fall issue of the magazine, which will be printed, not mimeographed, will appear around Thanksgiving. No definite name for the maga- zine has ibeen decided on, but Bryn Mawr-Haverford Revue is being considered as a title. The issue will contain about 128 pages and will cost 50 cents. Haverford will furnish $280 for the issue, ‘the amount allotted for each issue of the Haverford Revue. Bryn Mawr will furefish the bal- ance, which is expected to be about the same amount. The two separate editorial boards will select stories and poems to be printed, as in the past. The four editors, Donnie Brown, Connie Hor- ton, Steve Sieverts and Stefan Cho- dorov, will then read all accepted material and give the final word of approval. Counterpoint’s ‘last issue sold 400: copies, and 150 copies of ‘the last issue of the Revue were sold. The editors hope to raise their combined circulation to about 800 by merging and presenting a larg- er and more interesting magazine.

Students Choose Co Most members of the student committee to study the size of the college have been appointed or elected by their classes. Jane Keator, Molly Epstein, Louise Todd and Virginia Arm- strong will speak for the curric- ulum committee. The freshman class has elected Chris Philpot and Nancy Lang to represent them. Sophomore mem- bers will be Betsy Nelson and Anne Wake. As we go to press, ~) the juntor~class—hasnot_héld an election. The student committee will meet soon with similar committees com- posed of members of the faculty, board of directors and alumnae as- sociation. _ The faculty committee, appoint- ed about a, year ago by President McBride, has already spent a great deal of time studying the question of Bryn Mawr’s size. Members of this committee, headed by Dean Marshall, are Mr. Joseph Sloane, Mr. Ernest Berliner, a talk on “The Emerging sda of West Africa.” ; ike Mr. Richmond Lattimore and Miss mmittee To Study Question Of Increasing Size Of B. M. C. Eleanor Bliss, dean of the graduate school. The faculty group began by con- sidering the national scene, and by finding out what comparable col- leges had done about the situation of an increasing number of appli- cants for admission. A~questionnaire was circulated among .the faculty, to get their opinions on the problem from the standpoint of actual teaching. They were asked how they felt their work would be affected by an in- crease of 15-20 per cent in the stu- -dent. body. Also, the faculty comrhittee-tried to determine the possible effect of such an increase on various facili- ties, such as the library, infirmary, laboratories, offices and residence halls. Although the committee has spent some time evaluating the answers received, it has not yet drawn up a formal: recommenda- tion. The group plans to offer its ideas and conclusions to the other committees as soon as a meeting can be arranged. i ee Page Two THE COLLEGE NEWS Wednesday, November 2, 1955 THE COLLEGE NEWS FOUNDED IN 1914 Published weekly durin hristmas the College Year (except during Thanksgiving, and Easter -holidays, and during examination weeks) in the “interest of Bryn Mawr College at the Ardmore Printing Company, Ardmore, Pa., and Bryn Mawr Coles The College News is fu eo. —:, ly protected by copyright.

Entered as second class matter at the Ardmore, Pa., Post Office, Role Of Criticism Perhaps one ‘of the difficulties of extra-curricular activi- ties at a small college is that personalities and organizations become so closely entwined that it is difficult to separate one from the other. The students are so well acquainted with each other and live so closely together that a would-be critic finds it difficult to be objective for fear of antagonizing or hurting those around her. At the same time, the group un- der criticism finds it difficult to believe that the criticism is directed not at them as people, but rather at their publica- tion, or conference or class show. But it seems to us that the spirit of inquiry and critical judgment should be as impor- tant a part of the extra-curricular life of a college as it is of the academic life of the individual student . We cannot prac- tice integrity and critical thinking in the classroom, and then put blinders over our eyes when we examine various student activities, although admittedly it is more difficult to exercise judgment and courage among our contemporaries than it is when examining the theories of Thomas Hobbes. The case in question is, of course, the News’ policy of re- viewing class shows. The News has three alternatives: to overlook the faults of a production as inevitable and unim- portant and to concentrate on its better points; to treat the whole production as amateurish and unworthy of honest crit- icism, a policy which the Haverford News seems to find en- joyable; or to take the middle road, to comment on both the good and the bad, with the desire to give praise where it is due and criticism where it is felt improvement might be made in the future. {We feel that this third alternative is infinite- ly preferable; where we fail to achieve this aim, we, too, are open to criticism. But the criticism should be of the review- er’s lack of fairness or lack of judgment, not of her decision to criticize per se. News reviews’ are of course the opinions of the review- ers themselves, and not of the whole News staff. Reviewers are picked not because their ideas are the same as those held by the rest of the News, but because it is felt that they have independence of judgment, fairness and a knowledge of the theatre. The mere tact that they may happen to disagree with the majority of the college should not in itself be open to criticism; if their judgment is felt to be unreasonable, then the News itself is at fault. . But if their judgments are reasonable and honest, then the News feels that the reviews are of value to the college community—not as the “tinal word” on the subject, but as the considered judgment of a qualified student.

In its analysis of charac- ter and its use of the English lan- guage, the novel is a gem, Henry Maartens, the demand- ing, infantile scientific genius, and his wife Kate, who is at once moth- er-secretary, --womb-mistress to him, are the center of the: story. They are described “through the wrong end of the opera glasses” by John Rivers, a scientist who has worked with Maartens and lived with his family 30 years before. Further, Complication | Besides Henry and Kate, Rivers encounters in the Maartens house- hold, Ruth, who is suffering the pangs of adolescence. She compli- cates Rivers’ life by falling pas- sionately, -painfully-in-love with him. The basis of the novel—around which Huxley winds his sparkling wit and serious ideas—is this: Kate, emotionally and physically exhausted from caring for her mother, is called upon to nurse her husband, who .has contracted a case of psychosomatic pneumonia. She is renewed by a brief affair with Rivers, and gets what Huxley calls “the virtue’—that surplus of strength which enables her to cure her husband. Rivers’ reaction to the affair is one of horror and remorse. Kate’s, which earns for her the epithet of goddess, is one of Olympian non- chalance. She is aware, without ‘actually formulating the thought, that the state of sexual fulfillment is right and necessary if she is to perform her strenuous duties in be- The Genius And The Goddess—By A.

Distracted by her daughter’s suspicions, Kate causes her own death, and Ruth’s, in an automobile accident. The Genius and the Goddess is worth reading for the story alone. And added to this are a deep in- sight into the make-up of three human beings. Henry, Kate, and Ruth are not extraordinary. person- alities as they appear at the open- ing of the book. But through mas- terly treatment, the characters which start out by being alfmost commonplace finish by being strik- ingly individual. And the fact that they are de- scribed by an author who is, for the moment, almost a member of their family, instead..of an all-see- ing, disinterested bystander, adds a great deal to their life-like qual- ity. Witty, Bitter Style Only a series of quotations could do justice to Huxleys’ style, which is witty and frequently bitter. His brief sketch of Kate, early in the book, where he draws the whole woman by describing her hands; his revelation of’ Ruth’s problems through snatches of her love- poems; his comments on-life in general through the mouth-piece of Rivers, and above all his expo- sition of Kate’s renewal through adultery, must, of course, be read in context. They give to the novel that high polish which, added to sound construction and an under- standing of character, is proof of the author’s genius. To the Editor: I note in the October 26 issue of The College News that. substantial space is devoted to discussions con- cerning the size of the college. Should it, in other words, be big- ger, littler or similar? May I add an Spinion? First of all, increasing the en- rollment increases the number of students. This means that there will be more people—all over the place. They will get in each oth- er’s way. Soon, many will be tram- pled. Eating in shifts won’t help. Hundreds won’t ever reach the mess hall. They will eat squirrels. A larger enrollment will also de- crease the student-teacher ratio. Instead of 12 teachers per student, the ratio might sink to an unthink- able 8:1. The same thing happened at Smith. Need I say more? One article points out that the large schools are’ already big. That’s-true:-But—do—the~larger schools have to get bigger or the bigger schools have to get larger? Not necessarily. They can get smaller and smaller and smaller until they finally fold and, by vir- tue of the fact that they no longer exist, they’re the most EXCLU- SIVE schools in the country!. But then everyone at Bryn Mawr hates to be exclusive. I note that optimum enrollment, as determined in studies at Hamil- Harriet, is a freshman here, lives in Haverford. She is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, where she is affiliated as a special- ist in internal medicine.

P WAYS pie serving or disillusioned Bryn Mawrters have not realized before how blessed we are to be in close proximity to the Ivy League, the November issue of Holiday devotes many pages to the subject, rather than giving us the details of life in the Fiji Islands or some other exotic place. The general import of the three stories is that Ivy..League men and colleges are superior in every way to any. other men or colleges in the country. The articles; which deal. with Ivy intellect, sports and so- cial pastimes, are written by Ivy League men (naturally), and con- sequently must be taken cum grano salis. Superior Men? But before you accept that invi- tation to the Princeton-Yale game, you should find out what to expect from those Greek gods, those su- perior men. Apparently apathy, which “is as fundamental as his flannels,” is the prime asset of an Ivy Leaguer. It makes for spark- ling conversation and much consid- erate attention to one’s weekend date. Just think what a strain it must be to carry the girl’s suitcase from the train station. Apparently apathy even extends to the football games, where “Fight fiercely, Harvard!” is the most spirited cheer that is forth- coming. To show that Harvard is’ the epitome of a blase superiority over the “sweat, blood and tears” attitude found at college football games in other sections of the country, I shall quote from Holi- day: “. . »Harvard, as often happens, found itself with a fourth down and goal to go. The people around had bestirred themselves to yell, with some emotion,.‘We want a touchdown! We want a _ touch- down!’ when behind us a voice pip- ed up, ‘But I say, fellows, do.we really want a touchdown? I mean think it over’.” This is football? I mean think it over, isn’t it more like making the other team a pres- ent. of the game, which really isn’t at all sporting. Somehow, from the beginning football has apparently shocked the Harvard sense of propriety. After a knock-down-drag-out bat- tle with Yale in 1881, the Harvard newspaper said, “Yale did not try to maim our men as much as she usually does, and the second inning was to all appearances gentleman- ly throughout. It is felt by nearly all Harvard men that Yale plays more violently than is necessary or in good taste. ... There is no ex- cuse for the use of teeth in foot- ball.” Which pretty well covers that subject. Now, in ease you happen to go down to Princeton, you should know the origin of the clubs. Ac- tually the clubs are an excellent solution to a problem present at Bryn Mawr and many other worthy institutions today (food). “Tn 1879 some Princeton _men fought a duel in the dining hall— chicken croquettes at twenty paces —and, banished from there, set up the Ivy Club as a place to eat. Ivy was the first of seventeen eating clubs at Princeton.” But one last word of warning fabout Ivy League weekends. Ac- cording to Holiday, “The kind of fun an Ivy Leaguer likes is un- organized and downright anarchis- tic.” This leaves lots of room for all sorts of parties, so be prepared. The Ivy League even gives us the true answer as to what is wrong with Haverford men. In such a small college, Ivy Leaguers claim, he is “bored by the monot- ony and limitations of his environ- ment.” Actually that isn’t too complimentary to Bryn Mwar. But |of course, boredom works both “ PO age B Fie. are == tige-witpies = - Wednesday, November 2;'1955' ; THE COLLEGE NEWS Page Three .

C. “Bryn Mawr has been tied, how- ever tenuously, to the Ivy League,” declared John Franklin of Radio Station KYW. The occasion for this statement was the appearance of Betsy Dug- dale, President of the A.A., and George Munger, Athletic Director at the University of Pennsylvania, on “Monitor.” “Monitor” is'a na- tionwide NBC radio presentation which runs throughout Saturday and Sunday, specializing in brief reports on news and _ happenings throughout the world. Betsy and Mr. Munger will appear on the program this weekend as a result of Mr. Munger’s speech at Bryn Mawr explaining the principles of football. Mr. Munger is speaking here tonight at 8:30 in the gym. The radio appearance is the re- sult of a humorous editorial in the| Philadelphia Inquirer, praising Bryn Mawr’s decision to invite Mr. Munger. Betsy noted that when Mr. Franklin of KYW read the edi- torial he immediately called her and asked her to appear on the program. Betsy and‘Miss Carol Biba, Di- rector of Public Relations, went to Station KYW, and Betsy recorded a three-minute discussion. with Dems And Reps Help At Election A few members of Bryn Mawr’s newly organized Young Democrats and Republicans have been contrib- uting their time and efforts to the Philadelphia election campaign. The chief contest Tues., Noy. 8, will be between Democrat Richard- son Dilworth and Republican That- cher Longstreth. The Young Democrats, under Charlotte Graves, have spent sever- al evenings passing out literature in the Germantown residential dis- trict and in the center of Philadel- phia. A few members have work- ed on sound trucks in the city. With a similar organization from Hav- erford College, the Young Demo- crats are working directly under the “Independents for Dilworth and Blanc.” Following the election, when many of the Democrats will give more of their time, the party plans to organize a program for discus- sion of politics. by student Demo- crats. Anyone who is interested is asked to contact Charlotte. Graves in Rockefeller.
