A Midsummer Night's Dream
The Future is a wonderful force, and one of universal interest. [| never used to
have such good thoughts in my Youth! Waiting to get into Bryn Mawr has definitely
changed my personality. Even so, | wouldn't dare say such a thing to anyone but
you, Diary. People would make fun of me for being philosophical. Just wait! At
Bryn Mawr a girl can be herself and talk about really important things. They re
supposed to be deep there. It’s strange, because when I was a sub-freshman and
saw the girls at May Day they didn’t look deep. 1 guess you can’t, though, dancing
in circles. Anyway, I’m sure I’d see it now, my observation has been sharpened so
by all my experience with college boards. You'd certainly think they wouldn't ruin
your whole summetr’s tour by keeping the results from you. How can I be broadened
by the two hours we have in the Louvre when the only thing I want to know about
is the next four years? Oh Diary, they all said I had a good mind! If I don't get
into Bryn Mawr, Ul die, I know I will! Ull just see Naples and die!
Oh Diary, at last I got a letter from Miss Ward! She said she was glad to tell
me Pd been admitted to Bryn Mawr. and then she said to cable and say if I wanted
to come! As if, after all that waiting I had any other intention! It is wonderful
to be sure of one’s life again! I shall major either in psychology or English o
philosophy.
I shall not be the kind of Bryn Mawr girl that people at dances are sarcastic
about. I don’t see how a college girl could possibly want to be sloppy—supposing
some Haverford boys were to see you! And Bonwits and Bests have your clothes
problems all worked out for you.—intriguing date dresses and contrasting tweeds. |
wont have my room all full of trite chintz, either. Mother and [ have picked out
some maple furniture which will look very distinctive. and I have some big liquor
bottles for my mantle; they ll be unusual and give it a worldly kind of air. I don't
know yet which is to be my hall. Merion is supposed to have more esprit de corps.
but Rock has running water in the rooms.
Bryn Mawr seems to give the individual so much chance for self-expression.
There’s the Parade Night song, for example. I’m going to try to write one. And
if they let me write the Freshman Show, I think V’ll have a Parrot for the Animal.
They could teach it the Greek cheer.
I had my college uniforms sent home, instead of waiting till I got there to see
them. They're dreadful! I suppose it’s nice to have a class blazer, but I must say
mine hasn’t much shape, and my swimming suit looks just like a dead mouse—I
know I couldn't float five minutes in it. But the gym suits look really very English,
and if I don’t make any teams—(I’m going to try out for all of them)—at least it
will be thrilling watching the games. They probably sing all those wonderful songs
that are in the little hand book. I’ve learned them already, so that they won’t
interfere with any of my homework. Imagine being part of the college you're cheer-
ing for! And imagine cheering for a goal in Latin!
Dear Diary, I'm here and I’m lost! None of my lovely things have come, and
my room is a big bare echoing place, and everyone else’s room is just as bad, and
oh, it’s dismal! We sat at a great long table at lunch, and no one had anything to
say. Why when there’s a nice comfortable word like housemother do they have to say
warden? Ive never felt like such a nonentity in my life—when I think of how
everyone used to look up to me in high school, I could just cry. You can’t tell what
courses you want to take because you don’t know, really: and you never heard of
any of the people the other girls ask you if you know: and just in case you have
any self-esteem left, they make you undress. and put you in a strip of white flannel
which is worse than being naked, and ask if youre coming out and how much
you smoke.
Everything is so enormous and confusing. Of course the reception committee
is there to help, but what can they do for your soul? The upper classmen have
come back and they're running around the hall screaming hello to each other—it
isn't fair! B. and I sat in my room and tried to forget them by talking about the
boys we know at home. B. is a sweet freshman who lives next door and doesn't
have an accent that makes me feel ignorant.
Miss Park said, “With the first classes at nine o'clock. the year of Bryn Mawr
will begin. Bonum Annum.” It was thrilling, like an oracle. or a good omen.
College is going to be wonderful!

The Taming of the Shrew
Oh Journal, it is such a feeling of power to come back to college and not be
a Freshman! To be able to tell people where to go, and who at least half of the
faculty are! Not to be memorizing the distinction between walking around the
streets of Bryn Mawr and eating in the village! ‘To come back, with a new dierndl]
and monk’s sandals, to your own room, your friends, and your Dean’s Slip hidden
in your own Complete Shakespeare! Now that | am a Sophomore, with no taint
of Snuflling Nasality, and have an S. A. girl to take to tea, college is definitely good.
They have measured my T. B. reaction with a centimetre stick and put me in a
box to be X-rayed, like an amoeba under a microscope. I have no more privacy
than the Hygiene Venus—but I hope they find me prettier!
I am sick of piles of litthe cards that have to be turned over to get the answer
to ubertreffen, “traf, “trossen. I especially hate them at the breakfast table. 1 have
no sympathy for Emil’s mother who washes hair. And [ must admit that “Where
will the seniors be a hundred years from now,” the night before, always makes me
feel a little worse about the morning after.
B. says that the campus tendency seems to be to take everything with even more
wn
grains of salt than leaves of tea. I don’t see why it’s cleverer to make fun of
things than to like them, or what pleasure you can get out of having ev erything torn
apart. Sometimes nothing seems safe any more except T. S. Eliot. And Lantern
Night. . . . Cold silence and clear song. rhythmic light in cloistered dark, set them-
selves apart from scofling. Even the way the sophomores sang could not be called
funny, but I couldn't help laughing at the amount of wax spilled on purpose.
My paper is handed in: I don’t know what [ could have done without that
extension! Journal, you are an oasis in my restricted college life. No margins. no
footnotes, and I can plagiarize without admitting it, and be as incoherent as I please!
After all, a stream of consciousness is the only true expression. and [ can’t help the
way my mind works. My thoughts come over me like the waves... .
It is absolutely incredible that Zeno cannot catch up with the tortoise. The
solution might be “because I do not hope to turn again.” Tam not sure. Knowledge
is power.
To desire the yellow flag by Merion is to lack the red thread of courage.
Mrs. G.’s intuitive vocational understanding is uncanny. She told me never
to give up my art, and that’s certainly what I’d never, never do! She must be
remarkable: she has marriage and a career in a round hole.
I always wonder what will happen if I take a quiz in a place not prepared for
me by a blue book. Senate and Self Gov. seem to work like a kind of underground
railway; the mystery of the thing makes me go to chapel when they read rules.
I think the Ludovisi throne is simply baffling. No one will say exactly what
it means, but the archaeology department all acts as if we knew. It’s almost as
puzzling as the Villa of Mysteries in Pompeii. I could grasp archaeology so much
better if I were sure what the mystery was. B. is confused in one of her courses
too: the art professor (he is a German) keeps talking about the “bear,” and all she
can see in the pictures are nude figures.
1 thought Vd staved off all evils until February Pay Day, but the Bryn Mawr
League of Bryn Mawr College has put pledge cards on all the doors, and the
Mail Table is full of pencils announcing a Saks sale at the Inn. In essence,
I am on the two horns of a dilemma, without substance. And the Greeks have a
word for my coffee and coke bill. The problem is definitely between idealism and
materialism in the United States.
With seven dinners, one Current Events, the Philharmonic on Sunday, and the
Flexner Lecture, I should be able to finish Mother’s mittens before Christmas
vacation, if I don’t confuse the directions with my physics notes. I shall definitely
not major in science, though I told Miss W. I would. She said I would not.
B. prefers fines for non-attendance to the apathy of class meeting where you
17)
elect people to offices no one hears of again. She says you get over class spirit
when you stop wanting to be a girl cheerleader, but I disagree! I think all this
Sophomore spying and Senior steps fighting is lots of fun. I guess I’m just an
extrovert. I tried to work out exactly what I was in the bath tub tonight, but the
ad for stockings kept distracting me.
B. is perfectly wonderful. She can talk in the same cutting, curt way that the
News editorials do. She said the arrival of the News is to Wednesday night what
the 1:39 is to Friday, and both are vehicles of the voice of Bryn Mawr. [I think
college is very daring to begin vacation on a concert day, Stokowski is no one to
be coughed at. He is so expressive. So is Victor Hugo. But it is good to see
new waves and high heels everywhere on campus, and I am glad Christmas has come.
Why, I don’t know. My time will be all taken up with that paper on the Whetherness
of Platonic Love in Venus and Adonis. 1 don’t know yet if Vl hand it in for
philosophy or English Lit.; the papers are due in the same week anyway. I have
most of the Lib. in my suitcase. Not as many books, however. as Freshman Year.

A Winter's Tale
[ have not within the best of my knowledge been exposed to any communicable
diseases during the winter vacation. Neither have [| been exposed to any serious
studying. [ don’t think it’s liberal to have the first paper in my major subject due
at six the Friday after we come back, even if it’s to be a scant forty pages, with
no padding.
I quite frankly don’t see how [ can finish it, anyway, for my heart’s not in that
field any more. Its awfully hard to write on Forests in the Reign of Henry II as
Evidenced in French Tapestries Dyed in Flanders, when you've been awakened to the
deeper needs of society. Diary, there was the most fundamentally stirring speech in
the Common Room—even the display of water colors of women’s souls couldn't
distract me. The man wasn’t appealing to our emotions, you see, he was just telling
us, straight from the shoulder, of existing conditions. It’s marvelous what a liberal
minority can do if it’s autonomous enough. Tm going to join the Union at once—
I may even move to Denbigh after midyears. They have wonderful ideas, they re
definitely against all sorts of prejudice, and they strike and boycott, and it’s really
not fair to say they’re Communists, for they're in touch with all the acts in
Washington, and they convene at Vassar. Oh, to think how long Vve been the
daughter of malefactors of great wealth, and never even observed industry in
Campbell’s soup plant! VIL burn my books and devote my life to service. if I ever
come through my skiing lessons with my neck unbroken!
The history of art lecture about the lyric Sienese line was so absolutely flutelike
and inspiring that I went tearing down to the Gym as soon as it was over, and danced
the rhythm of the Sant’ Ansano Altarpiece. I could feel the music in the flowing
earments, and under my arms, pushing up, up—it was transcending! I wrote a story
about how I’d felt, as soon as I got back, but I'm afraid it’s too happy and simple
to be Lantern material.
I don’t understand why we gain so much weight during midyears. Surely tea.
and two milk lunches don’t make up for all the intellectual effort. and all the sleep
we lose. I hate exhibitionists who come down to breakfast and tell you how late
they've been up. I hate people who drink coffee with an English opium eater
expression, and who list how many weeks’ notes they have to cover before nine. I
hate exams. B. says the spirit of Verdun hangs over us—“They shall not pass.”
B. wrote six books for her philos. exam and left out God, at that. Such is the
way of a sceptic. As for me, I’d rather say anything was constitutional, at this
point, than read a Supreme Court case about it.
“When I consider the case of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey
I wonder about the Quality of Mercy.”
It’s perfectly criminal the way we treat the Freshmen. Why, tonight when they
dedicated their show to us, I was practically the only Junior who knew the words
to our reply. It made Goodhart sound even more full of dead spots. It was such a
clever play, too—a parody on college life. And their animal was one of the embryo
dog fish from Dalton. They say one sophomore saw the jar under a freshman’s
bed, but she thought it was just another amateur incubator.
Just because you show enough intellectual versatility to want to change your
major, they ve no right to penalize you five dollars for it! It’s pedantic and academic
that’s what makes
to limit originality that way—that’s what produces mediocrity
the college type! If I find Latin dead and restrictive, why can’t I change to social
economy without their attaching a financial stigma to it? I can’t see that changing
from a philosophy major first semester has anything to do with the present case;
after all, Cogito ergo sum. and one can outgrow the Absolutes! If they were only
progressive here, they d stop the system of majors! Id like to have three minors
instead, it’s much more comprehensive, and I know I could do it—my Brearly back-
ground is a perfect preparation for such a challenge.
We had the most violent discussion about what caused modern trends. Ann
had all sorts of wild theories—I had no idea she thought about anything but geology.
I don’t think she’s ever stayed in the smoking room to talk before. There are such
fascinating people here that you just come across by chance—it makes me sad to
think how many we miss. B. says it’s Dale Carnegie to be interested in so many
that aren’t even in your crowd, but I think personalities are marvelous! Why, it’s
amazing just to see what unexpected people turn up with figure skates on a Monday
afternoon!

All's Well That Ends Well
Oh to be a Senior now that April’s here! Where? B. says that’s not the point.
The trouble is that Life is getting incredibly nearer and nearer and so few of us are
sure what we’re going to do about it. [must make some definite connections. [1 can’t
be left banking on the Prix de Paris—too many people have a unit's worth of time to
spend on it. Alice wanted to know in the middle of a bridge game what “shocking
pink” was, and she was annoyed when B. said Spender and | said Gaugin. What Id
really like to do is get on Broadway, though they say you cant get on Broadway
unless you've been on Broadway. That must be exaggerated, because there are people
there, and someone had to start. I’m going to keep trying. | am the spectacle of a
will striving toward a goal. Miss Latham said that if I brought her a play written
in my best manner, about a sea captain who in one word betrays his country with the
consent of his murdered parents, she'd sell it. But all my cerebration will not bring
my curtain up or my audience swarming over the footlights. 1 can’t hold encounters.
I can’t put myself in Banquo’s place. I’m too well bred, that’s what’s wrong! What
can a nice refined college girl know about murder or religion? What do I know of
Love? Really Love? I nail my line, and I kill my scenes! Oh honest Torvald. I
did not foresee it!
B. says the Venetian school of painting reminds her of the “skin you love to
touch.” She's developed a poetic point of view, and she says,
Benozzo
Was not so.
Titian’s torso
Was more so.
I thought dancing around the May Pole would be so glorious, but it’s funny
what a lack of enthusiasm you feel when people tell you to be spontaneous. B. and
I felt right in the English spirit all winter, but now when we ought to. we don't any
more. B. says it’s schizophrenia, but I'm just wondering when Vll get my work
done. It seems to me we gambol away a lot of good time. I can’t feel vernal anyway.
when it’s so cold we have to wear winter coats for concentric circles on the lower
hockey field.
I hope it doesn’t rain on May Day.
The Publications Office just sent over for a sample of my hair: they want to get
me a wig. If they'd kept me in my old part, they'd have saved themselves all this
trouble. Of course. having tried out for everything from the Dragon to Titania. I
wasn't very thrilled about being a strolling singer. Moreover. it was sort of crushing
to have Mrs. Collins look at me in my tights and say, “My dear, it’s good technique
to be discreet; I think we’d better change you to the Face in the Well or the Dancing
Bear!” B. is the Dragon. She and I sew scales on her costume every day, and she’s
eoing to write a dirge called, “She didn’t know what a tail entailed.”
Jupiter—Minerva—Maia—don’t let it rain on May Day!
The May Pole is down in the Gym! I felt so proud when I saw that great mass
of paper flowers that we made, in the smoking rooms all winter! Even the dissenters
whom you can depend on to oppose anything a lot of people like, and who are going
to influence next year’s Freshmen against Big May Day ought to be thrilled—how can
they help feeling the spirit of Selinger’s Round?
The sophomores assembling to seranade us made the dawn come up like
thunder, but at least it woke me in time to get the curlers out of my hair before my
May basket and kiss arrived. B. says listening to a sequence of “Bachelor of Arts “34,
Exchange Fellow in Analytical Cytology, °35-36, and Demonstrator-elect in Physical
Chemistry “36-37” is only less dull than Freshman Statistics, but I think the Hinch-
man, and “The Hunt Is Up” and Spring are wonderful!
Dear God, let Miss Read demand overnight books back at seven-thirty—let one
white ox turn out to be the Dean’s wire haired terrier.—let them decide to post marks
again—only don’t let it rain on May Day!
The May Pole went up right, the milling looked natural, Noah found his beard
just in time—Oh, May Day was wonderful! B. is embittered about it because people
kept asking her if she wasn’t hot in her costume, but they only looked at me and
said, “How ghastly, all that paint!” I’m almost glad it goes on again tomorrow, it’s
such glorious fun once you're in it, and nothing like it will ever happen to us again.
—The time is swift and will be on!
Anyone who talks about love at first sight isn’t familiar with the German Oral.
I know Mrs. Spillain quite well now, but she doesn’t remember from year to year.
Yesterday she asked me if I were a senior, and when I said yes, she just sighed,
“That’s too bad—”
Studying for Comprehensives is very revealing. I find that I took beautiful
notes when I was a freshman, but the oddest things crop up in my senior ones. How
can I be serious about spot passages when I see, in Carter’s South Sea Blue, “Small
wonder that the dramatic unities were violated—huge purple pansy in Dr. C.’s
button-hole.” We are all up on the roof, studying in our halters; naked truth, B. said.
The sun gets hotter and hotter, and the time nearer and nearer; Zeno was a fool
about not catching up with that tortoise—you must, whether you want to or not!
[ cat imagine really taking those exams. How [ can account for the four best
years of my life in nine hours 1 just don’t see. ALL Pm sure of is that the Compre-
hensive fields ?m supposed to know are not Klysian!
And after Comprehensives—if there really is such a time—everything will
happen at once. Garden Party—( what will B. look like in one of those wide-brimmed
feminine hats? ). And packing up my room—TI don’t understand how I came to buy so
many books or collect so many papers in four years. Four years! It’s impossible
that they could have gone so quickly. It seems just a reading period ago that I was
wriling great pretentious wisdom about the future, and now that very future is almost
here. There will be Baccalaureate, and the surprise of seeing the faculty in academic
regalia; Commencement, with black caps and fur hoods and Latin dignity, and one
of us to “take her place on the platform with the rest of the Bryn Mawr Fellows.’
And then we will have our degrees and we must go.
“But we, thy daughters, will thy vestals be—
Thy torch to consecrate eternally.”

Leaguers, played their parts with ease.
Commendable aplomb was displayed by
auburn-haired Ellen Newton, who sup-

Vivid impressions of infant class in-

Although after finals most of the fresh-
men sped homeward, several of the class
of °38 took parts in the Bacchae of
Kuripides, directed by Mime. Sikilianos,
who, it is to be remembered, in sandals
and flowing garb, was seen not only in
the ville, but actually leaning across the
counter at the chatting with
Mike. Among the freshmen names of
those in this entertainment for the benefit
of the Million Dollar Drive, were: M.

Among the confused memories of
Sophomore year are: The birth of Judith
Weiss, the return of the Bryn Mawr Sum-
mer School to the campus, the J/cssiah,
Little May Day with the award of the
English prize to Sylvia Wright, and then
May Day rehearsals. Folk dancing, the
band on Merion green, faculty members
in Elizabethan costumes, thick,

Lecture by Hans Schumann, at Rocke-
feller Centre, illustrated by Bonnie Allen
and Jane Ludwig of class of '38, both of
devotees of the Duncan
them ardent
school.
Reading period instead of mid year ex-
aminations served thoroughly to frighten
senior class. It is rumored that relaxa-
tion and refuge from this fear was sought
by some. Ensuing spring vacation, vaca-
tion in no sense of the word.
Produced in late April was Patience.
Senior talent only sparsely represented,
future talent apparent from lower classes.
Directors Alwyne and Willoughby re-
ceived deserved ovation.
Kissed were Seniors by Sophomores
little May Day morning, thereof many
declined this mark of affection. Class of
*38 drawing dreamily in the plush back of
good hard seats, wondered at Miss Park’s
vocal endurance.
Dragged out the rest of the final
spring. Weather tantalizing but seniors
insensible to all but Comprehensives.

grace of God and the faculty.
Passed on, June, 1938, at Bryn Mawr
College, the class of 1938.

Thanks are due particularly to Anne Reynolds, “38, and Fairchild
Bowler, “40, and to many others who have contributed, for their
assistance with the photography. Mr. Livingston, printer of the
book, aided the staff by taking the lantern photos for the end
sheets; the two pages of 1930 May Day pictures: “Clouds Over
Rock,” introducing the Winter section, and a number of snapshots.

“Dolly”
Poised on the shore, before setting sail on future’s unknown sea, we look back once more on
the enchanted fields that we are leaving now forever. A figure stands out, strikingly outlined in
the setting sun. Daring, dramatic Dolly strides dauntlessly across the digs of high endeavor. The
persuasive charm of the Old South clings about her, fraught with the faint perfume of magnolia
and flowering bushwah. For four years we have found her irresistible. Her untiring energy and
her inimitable service in countless walks of college life constantly inspire us. Stage, song,
script, snapshot and study vie merrily in her college repertoire. She audaciously divides her
long waking hours between Minerva and the Muses, yet so masterfully does she direct her quiet
efhiciency that, though she may find pediments in her college work (her major is archaeology),
she never finds impediments. We wish we knew the secret of her success, but we can find no
clue in the fascinating mystery of her melting manner. She is a winsome leader,—the guiding hand in
the pigskin glove. She has earned our sincere appreciation for our earnest cooperation which her effervescent
enthusiasm untailingly won to her. Knowing her has been a memorable experience in our Bryn Mawr
career, which we will always deeply cherish. We predict that she will cross all the Rubicons and
Hellesponts of life with the ease of a veritable mermaid, and that we will some day hear great things of
her. Thoughts of Dolly and her indomitable spirit will always bring to our minds the
challenging poetry :
eS © *D © 9 © fF © * © * © FD © XD © XS
“None but the brave,
None but the brave,
None but the brave deserve the fair.”
BEWILDA ENERGINE BRINGHAM
ootse
Four years have rolled into eternity—four years rendered brighter and richer by the presence
of our Bewilda Bringham, who follows her elder sister in taking up and consecrating eternally
the torch of Bryn Mawr learning. Bryn Mawr will miss her—her cheery smile, her Gibraltar
integrity, her quiet, inexhaustible efficiency. She possesses a fascination equally persuasive with
business men (and other men, no doubt!) and college mates. It is human to have faults, and we
are not rash enough to claim that Bewilda, like Parsifal, is unblemished. But Bewilda’s faults,
if they can be called such, add to her charm. We love to see her brilliant flashes of tempera-
ment, she is magnificent when she loses her temper, her lightning-like changes of mind are always
for the best. Walking into the smoking room at almost any time, one, if one looks hard, will
discover Bewilda actually encompassed by a host of friends and freshman devotees. In spite of
her triple honours work, ranging from economics to Spanish, Bewilda always has time for her friends.
Even to aspirants tor scholarships, and in those fields where she is not directly concerned, she is a ready
source of advice. Why not!—her wide experience gives an undeniable authority, which she dispenses with
obliging grace. There is an air of mystery about Bewilda. When we gaze into those lovely eyes, some-
times green, sometimes brown, we wonder... . and want to know her better.
