ANGNA ENTERS COMING
On Tuesday, April 7, Maurice Hin-
dus, the brilliant young Russian and
author —of——‘‘Humanity-.; Uprooted,”
“Earth” and “Red Bread,” will lecture
on Russia and the World. Mr. Hin-
dus was born in a Russian village and
came to America at the age of fourteen.
He has visited Russia annually since
1923, wandering about the cities and
villages of Siberia and the Caucasus,
the Volga region, the Ukraine, the
Crimea and the Far North. Of Rus-
sia Mr. Hindus says: “For good or for
evil; Russia—has—plucked up *the old
world by its very roots and the party:
in power is glad to-see those roots wilt
and turn into.dust. Hardly an institu-
tion—property, religion, morality, fam-

Une sorte de piété se méle au souvenir
des années que les étudiantes ont~ ici

qu’elle a regu en bonheur.
Des différences psychologiques qui nous

qu’est-ce que sa vie .d’écoliére, sinon la
fatigante succession des heures de cours?
Comment, lorsqu’elle aura fini ses études,
emporterait-elle un souvenir heureux?
La-bas, on écoute mieux cet appel au

Libres,-installés dans leur république, que
les ainés ont le devoir d’entretenir, mais
qu’ils n’ont pas le droit d’opprimer, les
adolescents vivent par eux-mémes et pour

At a recent. of the College
Council Miss Park“thd Mrs.

mittee be revised. As it now stands,
it is inadequate insmany respects. Be-
cause of its large size it is impossible
to get unity-of-epinion—and-action,.and.
it is-too.unwieldy to make discussions
with the Faculty Curriculum Commit-
tee easy or useful. . Besides, as Miss
Park pointed out, it would be very
helpful if there were a small commit-
tee to which she could turn for actual
information on student opinion. From
the point of view of the sttidents, it is
weak in that it-does-not actually _rep-
resent the widest cross section of un-
dergraduate opinion. This is because
when the committee was first formed
it was suggested that the members. be
chosen for “the value of their opinions
upon academic matters.rather than as
a.representative group.” It has become
generally recognized throughout the

ATMOSPHERE INFORMAL
The annual recital« of the Dance
Club- and the #Dancing Classes was
held, in the gymnasium on March 17.
Although it would seem that natural
dancing exists primarily for the per-
former himself, it also appears that it
may give pleasure in an entirely objec-
tive fashion, as the large audience of
Tuesday evening may. testify. The in-
formality of the atmosphere was well
in accordance with.the= natureoof the
recital, and the simple though effective
lighting and the background of grey
for the kaleidoscopic dancers was espe-
cially appropriate to. their technique, if
one may ‘speak paradoxically, fof*'this
technique seems to consist in the very
lack of it as it is commonly understood
in dancing. There was no pointing of
toes, or drooping of hands-or other
grace-imparting formulae; these belong
to a later atid more artificial stage in
the evolution of the dance. Hence the

Graduate European Fellowships and
Faculty changes for next year.
Fo-this-end-many- of its faculty have
either been Europeans themselves or
have completed their training abroad.
Again, since 1892, there have always,
been European scholars studying at
Bryn Mawr on fellowships. provided
But
the most definite step the college has
taken toward its objective is the official
sending of its own students abroad for
study. Four graduate students and
onessenior are chosen each March by
the faculty to live outside America, to
work in Europe’s libraries and mu-
seums_ and to become acquainted with
modern civilization other than our own.
From. now. on, the Senior European
Fellow will not be announced until
commencement in order to give the
faculty more time to form an estimate
of the student’s ability. This change
brings with it the abolition of two age-
old undergraduate traditions, that of
attempting to intercept the _faculty
mail, and that, of the President's at-
tempting to prolong her announcement
to the length of a Senatorial filibuster.

The humdrum of routine tends to obscure much that is significant
in daily work and attitudes.
We are fully cofscious of the burden of
quizzes and reports, while we preceive only infrequently the ideals of
scholarship embedded in our College organization.
It is of great im-
portance that these ideals, which are the most fundamental elements of
our academic life, should ‘find clear formulation and impressive recogni-
tion at some time during the year.
The Fellowship Chapel on_ Friday
was such an occasion. The broader implications of the college regime
were laid bare, and we saw more fully the relation of undergraduate and
graduate work to the total scheme of education.

Win Fellowship in Rome
A Fellowship in Classical Studies at
the American Academy in Rome has
been awarded to Agnes Kirsopp Lake,
1930. The Fellowship provides for
study and residence at the Academy in
Rome and for travel in classical coun-
tries over a period of two years. It
carries with it a stipend of $1750 a
year. The competitors, who come
from the graduate schools of various
American universities, are required to
submit credentials and original papers
to a jury of nine classical scholars.
The other two successful competitors
this year are Frank E. Brown, of Yale,
and Alfred Geltharp, Jr., of Princeton.
Bryn Mawr can look with some
pride on the recent success of its stu-
dents in the competition for the fellow-
ships in the classical schools of Rome
and Athens. The Roman fellowship
was held by Lillian Starr in 1926-27
and by Irene Rosenzweig in 1928-30,
both of them holders of the M. A.
degree from Bryn Mawr.
in Athens were held by Dorothy Burr
(1923), in 1924-25, by Agnes Newhall
and Mary Zelia Pease (both 1927), in
1928-29, and by Lucy Shoe (1927) in
1929-30.
Miss Lake capsived her A.B. degree
magna cum laude with honors in Latin
in 1930: During her senior year she
held the Hinchman scholarship. She
is at present graduate scholar in Bib-
lical Literature, and is a candidate for
the M. A. degree.
Choir and Organ Show
, Dignity in Bach Program
The music of Bach is peculiarly fitted
for interpretation by organ and choir,
and the program of the ynusical service
on Sunday, March~22, ranging as it did
from the sonorous organ arrangement
from the St. Matthew Passion to the
lyrical chorale, Now All the Woods Are
Sleeping, gave a most satisfying glimpse
of the simpler beauties of this composer’s
art.
The singing was careful but unaffected
—a trifle colorless in the chorales, but
having a charming buoyancy in the uni-
son chorises. THe tonal variations of
the organ found full play in the chorale.
prelude, Wachet Auf, Ruft Uns Die
Stimme, and the Toccata was a magnifi-
cent example of, the emotional in Bach’s
music.
The service preserved throughout a
spirit and a dignity in execution that was
a tribute to the composer.

that the American public has seen in

sharp distinction between these repre-
sentations, justly called by Miss En-
ters “compositions,” andthe so-called
“interpretation” of musical works by
other dancers. Miss Enters does not
attempt in any lavish or literal way to

bodily action. Her choreographic con-

illustration. They grasp a certain mo-

is to be thanked for new ideas and
inspiration provided a jaded public.”

ott les étudiantes aiment se promener, un

par uhe des deux portes latérales, se re-
joignant au milieti de la pelouse, et se
groupand enfin devant le mur du fond,
les étudiantes, de la promotion ‘nouvelle
venue, les Freshmen, occupent le cloitre,
sans un mot, sans un cri.
Un chant s’éléve, doucement rythmé;
les . étudiantes de seconde année, les
Sophomores, font maintenant leur entrée.
Chacune d’elles porte 4 la main une lan-
terne au feu violet? et l’on dirait, dans
cette ombre, une procession de _lucioles,
qui se forme, évolue, et s’aligne enfin
devant la masse obscure que nous deyin-
ons sans la voir.
Alors chacune des anciennes remet a
la nouvelle qui lui fait face la lanterne
wmenue qui scintille et palpite.. Don
d’'amitié, choisi et dessiné chaque année
feu qu'une génération passe a la gén-
ération qui la suit; flamme du savoir

Ces évolutions, ces demi-choeurs, .ce

du chant ~ lentement -rythmé,.-rappellent
les cérémonies paiennes. La Gréce revit,
et transmet a la plus neuve des civilisa-

Les .deux’ traditions se fondent ici. dans

sion finie, les Sophomores disparaissent.

: HERNANI
Le .25 février 1930, le Club francais de
Bryn Mawr a monte et joué Hernani; les
décors ont été brossés par les artistes du
Collége. Mais le spectacle n’était pas
seulement sur la scéne; on voyait aux
prises, dans lacs salle, classiques et.roman-
tiques; on se ‘montrait du doigt le gilet
. s 4 .
suivant un modéle nouveau; symbole dt.
rouge de Théophile Gautier. Les’ bour-
geois sifflaient, les rapins applaudissaient.
Ce fut une soirée mémorable.
—Que n’étais-je 1a! f
—Qu’a cela ne tienne! On ne saurait
reprendre toute la piéce; mais on peut
répéter le premier acte, les actrices sont
encore parmi nous. ‘
Et donc, dans le grand salon ou le
Club francais tient ses ‘séances, on im-
provise des coulisses,"avec des paravents.
Voici la duégne, et Don (Carlos qui sort
de son armoire; Hernani, quelle } pres-
tance! et Dofia Sol, tendre et fragile.
Les vers sont intrépidement lancés, et
sans accent, car les grarids premiers roles
ont passé leur jeunesse en France, ‘par
une habile précaution. Hernani a Bryn

décor d’automne une vive flamme, in-’

Octobre-novembre. 1930.—Au com-
mencement, je suis embarrassé, comme
Sylvestre Bonnard. Je pense, pour m’en-
courager, qué j’ai ici méme plusiers col-
légues nase il.y en a un qui porte
des favoris, et lautre qui porte toute sa
barbe, puissant renfort—Et quel em-
barras résisterait a l’amiable accueil qui
me fait voir, tout de suite, que ce n’est
pas en étranger qu’on veut me traiter, a
Bryn Mawr?
Mes lecgons sont de deux espaces: Les
unes: ressemblent a nos.cours publics; je
parle de la poésie francaise, au dix-neu-
viéme et au vingtiéme siécle. L’audi-
toire semble, ma foi, s’intéresser vivement
a elle, méme et surtout sous ses formes
les plus avancées. Comme partout au
monde, ce qui occupe les jeunes esprits,
cest le nouveau, c’est le contemporain. —

O nos bons maitres d’autrefois, quigfte
sortiez jamais de vos chaires, que pensez-
vous de tous nos voyages? .Ils sont dans
lesprit. des temps-nouveaux. Sans parler
de nos jeunes agrégés, de nos _profes-
seurs qui séjournent en permanence dans
les Universités et dans les Colléges des
Etats-Unis, une dizaine, une vingtaine de
missionnaires franchissent chaque année
VOcéan, aussi facilement qu'on fran-
chissait jadis la Seine pour se rendre de
la rive droite au Quartier Latin. L’un
deux me disait récemment, au retour,
son regret de quitter un auditoire tel que
moi-méme je l’ai trouvé ici: non seule-
ment intelligent et sensible, mais amical.
DIMANCHE
Tout est désert, aujourd’hui. Les dili-
gentes que le week-end n’a pas dispersées
restent gnfermées dans la bibliothéque. A
peine une bicyclette, qui a l’air d’attendre.
devant une porte, suppose une présence; a
peine une chanson discréte sort d’une
fenétre, la-haut. Il n’y a personne sous
les arbres de la grande allée; point de
silhouette blanche qui se hate vers les
tennis; point de tache, bleue ou rose, qui
se meuve sur les gazons. A mesure que
j’avance a travers le parc, je me sens
le maitre d’un domaine dont je suis le
seul roi. Le coq qui chante au lointain
_ est de ma basse-cour; cet écureuil. familier
les fruits que j’entends
tomber de l’arbre sont ma récolte, qui
se fait d’elle-méme,. doucement.

que les bruits du monde moderne s’arré-
tent encore devant ses murs religieux.

besoin. Mais que se passe-t-il? Les

de distinguer encore Frére Jacques, a

combien cette chanson est. douce, si vous
ne l’entendez un jour comme je viens
de l’entendre, si loin de mon enfance et
si loin de mon clocher. :
QUESTIONS
—Je suppose que toutes ces jeunes filles
sont riches?
—Non pas nécessairement. D’abord il
y a des colléges beaucoup -plus chers:
deux mille, trois mille dollars par an; ici,
les parents s’en tirent a moins. de mille
dollars. Les - étudiantes qui — feraient
parade de leur richesse seraient vite im-
populaires: parmi leurs compagnes,
n’auraient pas la vie agr€able. En sec- |
ond lieu, nous accueillons beaucoup de
~boursiéres; si nous tenons compte des
graduates, la proportion va jusqu’a trente
pour cent.
—Certaines personnes ne pensent- -elles
pas (du moins on me l’a dit) qu’il y a de
Pexcés dans ce confort, dans ce luxe; et
que des jeunes filles, sorties du collége et
se heurtant aux difficultés de la vie, en
souffrent plus durement?
—Ce n’est pas notre avis. Les années
de collége une fois terminées, beaucoup
de nos éléves se marient, et n'ont pas a
gagner leur pain. Celles qui doivent
lutter pour l’existence le font. vaillam-
ment. Elles savent qu’elles n’arriveront
pas sans peine a retrouver un milieu
comme celui-ci, ,et travaillent en consé-
quence. Sit méme nous voyons une différ-
ence entre les générations nouvelles et les
autres, c’est au profit de la volonté¢ et du
courage. Des jeunes files qui pourraient

COMMENT PERSHING. A CHOISI
DE VIEILLIR
Gilbert Chinard m’écrit: “Puisque vous
étes notre voisin, venez. . Nous allons
tenir l’assembfée>annuelle de 1’Institut
frangais..de Washington; -vous -assisterez
a notre réunion.” L’Institute francais
de: Washington étudie les rapports his-
toriques qui unissent l’Amérique et la
France. .Avec joie, répondons a _ son
appel.
La réunion est de choix. Laissons aux
Américains le soin de parler des Fran-
Gais qui s’y trouvaient, M.M. André
Chevrillon, Paul Claudel; pour mon
fcompté je prends le général Pershing.
Car il y était; Pershing &t toujours
présent, quand il s’agit d’affrmer une
sympathie francaise.
Droit, élancé, un air de simplicité et
de noblesse émanant de toute sa personne,
ce qui frappe dans Pershing, c’est moins
encore. son: autorité que -son caractére
humain. . Sa figure est popularisée par
l'image, mais l’image ne rend ni la finesse
des traits, ni la fraicheur du teint, ni la
pénétration du regard. Ses mouvements
sont ceux de l’officier qui, tous les jours,
monte a cheval, pour garder sa-souplesse
et défendre-a son corps de. s’ankyloser.
Je’dis “a M. Paul Claudel combien cette
physionomie me parait belle. I} me ré-
pond: “Il y a deux facong de vieillir. Ou
bien on s’amincit, on se .spiritualise, -on
va vers l‘ame. Ou bien on tombe dang
la chair,.on grossit, on s’empate. _Persh-
ing a choisi la premiére.”

cains qui passérent quelque temps dans
nos Universités 4 la fin de la guerre,
Raymond W. Kirkbride, fut frappé par
les qualités” “Somplanentarer” que notre’
enseignement pouvait offrir aux étudiants
de son pays: pourquoi ceux-ci ne vien-
draient-ils pas en France pour y passer
une de leurs quatre années de scolarité?
La troisiéme, par exemple, le Junior
year: c’est son nom. Et pourquoi cette
année ne leur compterait-elle pas au
méme titre qu'une année de cours en
Amérique? C’était un apétre: il fit si
bien, qu’en 1922 il fut chargé par 1’Uni-
versité de Delaware de se rendre a Paris
pour préciser et murir son projet. En
1923, il amena huit pélerins; et cing, en
1924. Mais peu a peu le nombre aug-
menta; l'Université de Delaware offrit
de prendre en tutelle étudiants et étudi-

des Etats-Unis. I] sont venus soixante-
sept l'an-dernier. *
A leur arrivée, ils se rendent d’abord
en province; et quand vient la rentrée des
cours, ils gagnent Paris. Sorbonne, Ecole
libre des sciences politiques, coopérent
pour leur offrir un ensemble d'études qui,
chaque-année, se rapproche de la perfec-'
tion. Ils sont logés dans les familles;
ils dépendat d’un directeur, d’une direc-
trice, qui les aident plutdt qu’ils ne les
surveillent; ils ont leur liberté de mouve-
ments, sans se sentir isolés. Ils publient
un bulletin, plein de saveur et de vie.
A vingt ans, se dépayser; changer
dhabitudes, et méme de langage; vivre
dans le neuf, dans l’inoui: quel bienfait
pour |’intelligence, pour la_sensibilité!
L’Université de Delaware n’est pas la
seule a se comporter de(la sorte; Smith
College forme un autre groupe, non moins
distingué, non moins nombreux. © Le
mouvement prend une telle ampleur, qu’on
en a confié la direction 4 un organ cen-
tral, a un comité qui dépend désormais de
U'Institute of international education. Si,
dans l'avenir, les écoliers de chaque pays,
tant qu’ils sont, arrivent a passer a’
Pétranger une année de leurs études, un
grand pas sera fait vers la paix du monde.
TEMOIGNAGES
Que pensent de la France ceux qui
viennent se méler ainsi a sa vie ‘intellec-
tuelle? Ou, pour mieux dire, que pen-
sent-ils d’eux-mémes? Lorsqu’ils regag-
nent les Etats-Unis, ont-ils gagné, ont-
ils perdu? :
Ici pe leur céde la parole, J’ai de-
mandé leurs impressions aux éléves de
Bryn Mawr, qui, l’an dernier, ont passé
chez nous leur “Junior year.” Ellis ont
réfléchi; elles ont écrit; chacune d’elles
m’a donné quelques pages. Et ces pages
simples et sincéres serviront peut-étre de
document, quelque jour, quand on voudra
mesurer les effets de notre civilization
sur de jeunes ames de. bonne. volonté.

leur retour, il n’y a qu'une chose qui

Collier and Baer Star
in Swarthmore Defeat
In the last game of the year Varsity
defeated Swarthmore, 49-29, The first
half was close and rather exciting, but
| the
seemed to leave their opponents stand-
- in second the yellow players
ing still.
Collier and Baer were the. stars for
Bryn Mawr. Collier, with 31 points
to her credit, was consistently good,
especially at foul shots. Receiving
beautiful passes ‘from the centers she
, would quickly bounce in and shoot be-
-fore her guard could get to her. But
‘she did equally well with her opponent
” sitting on top of her taking sure aim
and then*looping it in. Baer, in her
last college game, played far better
than she has all year. Except for a
‘slight lapse in the third quarter she
was able to outplay Sterling, the op-
posing jump. Her deep passes under
the basket were very accurate and were
frequently followed. by scores. Her
team work with her side centre was
good. Remington, at last master of
‘her passes, was opposed by. first one
big side center and then another.
However her speed more than made up
for her size for she was able to get
away quickly from her opponent to
receive’ passes. Totten, scoring 18
points, though not quite as accurate
.as Collier, was. very good, until the
last quarter when she seemed to let up.
The‘ guards started out slowly, gradu-
ally speeded up and were extremely
effective in the second half when only
‘10 points were scored against them. At
the end. Moore was getting her fingers
9n—any_pass—that—came~at—all-near—to}
her, thus completely breaking up the
Swarthmore attack.
Seamen, of the red team, was far the
. best in the Swarthmore line-up. Shoot-
‘ing from any distance she put in sev-
‘eral beautiful long shots to pile up a
score of 20 points.

beat the Swarthmore seconds, 43-22.

part of Swarthmore.

most accurate. With her little bounce.

shake her guard for a second and
shoot. Although, Harriman’s playing
‘ was a bit ragged, she made some very
pretty baskets from a distance. Hard-
enbergh, tallying nine points, was not
as accurate as usual.
Longacre, at jump, got her hands on
the ball very often, but her passes went
astray now and then. Despite her
tendency toward roughness she was
very effective. Engle, after she warmed
up, was very good, often catching the
ball on her finger tips and pulling it in.
The guards were only fairly good at
the start but improved greatly” in the
second half.
In.the first half the Swarthmore for-
wards got the ball frequently but could
not put it in. During the second half
as the guards improved so did the for-
wards so that towards the end most of
their shots counted. .

Curriculum Committee
Revision Announced
Continued from Page One
cable to formulate its-own—opinions—
must represent the halls, the classes,
and the principal departments of study.
As was pointed out in a letter to the
CotteceE News, neither Denbigh nor
Rockefeller are represented on the
present committee, and none of its
members are majoring in either science
or mathematics.
For these reasons, the Curriculum
Committee has drawn up a plan for a
new committee -to consist of both
elected and appointed members. It is
not in the classrooms nor in the sepa-
cate classes (Senior, Junior, etc.) that
the most representative student opinion
is to be found, but in the smoking
rooms and at the dining room -tables,
where the work is discussed and where
subjects like numerical vs. literal marks
are thrashed out. Therefore, each hall
at its spring elections is; according to
this plan, to elect as one member to
the committee a person who will have
a good general idea. of how her hall
feels on academic matters.
elected members are to appoint other
people—the number is to be left elastic
—so that the committee as a whole will
represent not only the points of view
of the classes (as it now does) but of
the departments and of the students in
each hall as well.
The Curriculum Committee, as it is
composed under this plan, will act to-
gether to discuss and to make reports
and so forth, but for the purposé of
consulting with the Faculty or with
Miss Park it would still be too large.
The. proposed, plan provides. for an
Executive Committee (consisting of
the chairman of the Curriculum Com-
mittee and two others elected from its
members) to fill this function. It
should act as a sort of middleman be-
tween the students and the faculty,
and since it is smaller and far more
representative than the present com-
mittee it should be correspondingly
made all but one goal for the dark|
rafter
These five}.
mittee shall be to keep in touch with
student opinion regarding the curricu-
lum, and to make suggestions and draw
up reports expressing student opinion
if requested to do so by the Puy
Curriculum Committee.
3. Executive Committee. The Cur-
riculum Committee shall elect two of
its members who, with the chairman of
the committee, shall form an Executive
Committee. This shall represent the
Curriculum Committee and contribute
information on student opinion to Miss
Park, Mrs. Manning or the Faculty
Curriculum Committee. This Execu-
tive Committee shall also act as a com-
plaint bureau for both the office and
the students.
4. Duties of the chairman.
duties of the chairman shall be:
(a) To keep a'record of the reports’ |
and activities of the committee.
(b) To .see that all important re-
ports are printed in the Cott#ce News
before they are presented to the Fac-
ulty, in order that they may be open
to criticism by the student. body, and
that the student body. may be kept in-
formed as to the activities ‘of the com-
mittee.
(c) If these reports, upon publica-
tion, do not meet with student ap-
proval, the chairman shall, at her dis-
cretion, call meetings of the college to
discuss and revise them.
5. Election of members. Each hall
shall elect one representative to the
committee at its spring elections.
6. Appointment of members. The
appointed members shall be selected
with regard to their ability to keep in
touch with undergraduate opinion and
shall be chosen from those departments
or classes which are not otherwise rep-
resented in the committee.
There will be a meeting of the Un-
dergraduate Assocjation immediately
Eastér vacation to discuss this
plan.
