Fisting thing with curls” and sat for a
number of ‘portraits in Paris. She tells
an amusing anecdote about a man who
approached her at the Ballet Russe
last fall and asked to be allowed to
take motion pictures of her. Mistak-
ing him for a professional photograph-
er and hesitating to involve the nanie
“Bryn Mawr” in any publicity ,en-
terprise, she declined, only to find that
he helped select models for Wana-
maker’s; he promised to call her up
about it—“but he never called.”

Miss Lewis has pale blonde hair
reaching far’ below her waist and
usually wears it in a coronet. She
employs no special rinses, not even
lemon juice, to emphasize its natural
color; and for a shampoo she uses her
favorite complexion soap. She never
wears heavy make-up, and uses no
facial creams or eye cosmetics; as
for nail polish, “Coral is my limit.”
Five feet five and one-half inches tall
and weighing 127 pounds, she is ex-
cellently. proportioned.

A member of the sophomore class,
Miss Lewis held an Alumnae Regional
Scholarship last year. She hadal-

ways planned to come to Bryn Mawr,}

and with the exception of a year spent
at Mlle. Fontaine’s School in Cannes,
she studied at Miss Fine’s School in
Princeton, where she lives, in prepara-
tion for entrance. She expects to ma-
jor in archaeology.

Miss Lewis’ favorite sport is swim-
ming; she was.on che Varsity.Swim-
ming Team last year “because I swam
breaststroke.” She was also a member
of her class hockey team.

She is now a resident of Merion
Hall. During her freshman year she
lived in Wyndhan, where she held the
position of fire chief.



Archaeology Students
Offered Scholarships

The Department of Classical
Archaeology will have in its award for
the year 1936-37 the Mary Paul Col-
lins Scholarship for Foreign Women
of the value of $1000 and will, in ad-
dition, offer three special resident
scholarships to promising candidates
in the field. These, together with the
regular. departmental fellowship and
scholarships, would furnish to the de-
partment a specially picked group of
students for a project which is an-
nounced as follows on the posters sent
to colleves and universities:

“In the hope of evoking from a more
intimate collaboration of teachers and
students new and publishable material
in an important and fruitful field of
research, the department during 1936-
37 will converge its seminaries and
graduate courses upon the single topic
of Early Greek Civilization. Dr. Car-
penter will deal with the tribal mi-
grations and epichoric alphabets; Dz.
Swindler will study the vases of the
geometric and early orientalizing
periods; Dr. Miiller will trace the in-
fluence of the adjacent oriental civi-
lizations upon Greek architecture and

ferences. will focus. upon. specifie op-
portunities for research in the’ proto-
archaic period.”

In reference to the foreign scholar,
the announcement states that she “will
be encouraged to pursue research. in
any field of Mediterranean ‘archac-
ology of the pre-Christian period, in
which’ she may be espetially equipped
or qualif-4..-™ g/pitior, she may par-
ticipate ‘“xr-une or more of the Re-
search Seminaries. . . . Within the
option of the department, the success-
ful candidate may be required to as-
sist other graduate students in re-
search in fields in which she is ex-
ceptionally qualified.” .

This scholarship, named again this
year in memory of Mrs. Henry Hill
Collins, and awarded again in a spe-
cific field, is the only one that has sur-
vived of the five $1000 scholarships
for foreign women which the Bryn
Mawr Graduate School awarded for so
many years and valued so highly. The
award for the cufrent year was made
in the Department of Biology, the
holder being’ Miss Hedda Norden-
skiéld.



Theorems Are Sought
For Modes of Meaning

poaching of other ends on the function
of exposition. The second kind of
problem is more difficult and funda-
mental. It can be formulated in
various ways: What is the connec-
tion between “events” in the mind and
the other events which they are of?
How. are. these .events. thought of?
What is the relation between a name
and what it names? _In the search for
a theorem by means of which to ap-
proach these problems, one begins by
a consideration of the so-called simple
responses, :

Man is a thing responsive to other
things in a particularly complex way.
This is illustrated by a comparison of
man’s simple response to’ changes in
temperature with those of a mechan-
ical device such as a thermometer.
The response of a thermometer to a
change in temperature is not in-
fluenced by its previous experience of
other changes, while in man such a
response is inevitably influenced by
other conditions present simultane-
ously with the stimulus in the past.
Thus one could never have a perfectly
simple response by a man. The near-
est approach, a response to a perfectly
new stimulus, would be recognized or
classified by man in the light of his
experience of earlier stimuli, as a
“new kind of pain” for example. The
basis of its meaning for him would lie
in the past.

Psychologists recognize sensations,
defined as perfectly simple things, or
data, as non-existent. In their place
one finds perceptions which take what
one experiences through the senses
as “a thing of a sort.” In perception

man has also the process, which is

present in all thinking, of sorting.
This Removes Difficulties

This conception of thinking is an
important part of the theorem which
wishes to explain meaning. It re-
moves the difficulties raised in the

troversies of the eighteenth century
which sought to solve the question of
whether we have, how we come by,
and how we may conceive of abstract
ideas. These problems may be avoided
by the theory which alleges the pri-







nominalist - realist - conceptualist con-



° : : i » : '
| mordial existence and abstractness of |

ideas. The theory follows William
James in saying that an amoeba, if: it
recognizes its food before ingesting it,
would be thinking insofar as“t was
defining a generality, or taking some-
thing of a sort.

This theory then solves the eight-
eenth century ' question by “standing
it on its head.” As the, problem was
formulated then it ran: given this
and that specific thing, how can we
arrive at a conception of an abstract
anything? The theory recommends
starting at anything and deriving
things by sorting, or defining them as
of a sort. Meaning, therefore, is a
delegated efficacy.

Applied to words, the theory must
presuppose an understanding, or at
least a technical definition of context.



For twenty-five years the research staff of
TheAmerican Tobacco Company has worked
steadily to produce a measurably finer
cigarette — namely, a cigarette having a mini-
mum of volatile components, with an improved

richness of taste—‘“‘A LIGHT SMOKE.”’

A LIGHT SMOKE

OF RICH, RIPE-BODIED TOBACCO

We believe that Lucky Strike Cigarettes em-
body a number of genuinely basic improve-
ments, and that all these improvements
combine to produce a superior cigarette
—a modern cigarette, a cigarette made of
rich, ripe-bodied tobaccos—A Light Smoke.
