A. MacLeish Reads
Selections Chosen
From Own Poetry



Sheble Lecturer - Emphasizes
Need of New Verse Form
For Theatre



HISTORY, ART, SATIRE,
APPEAR IN HIS WORK

Goodhart, May 1.—Mr. Archibald
MacLeish, in giving the annual Sheble
Memorial Lecture, formulated — this
maxim: ‘When a man who writes
verse is asked to speak in public, the
only honest thing he can do is to read
his poetry.’”’ .Mr. MacLeish proceed-
ed, therefore, to read his own poetry.
Since he felt that such a plan of ac-
tion might be construed as self-indul-
gence or as too great self-apprecia-
tion, he offered the apology that a
criticism of his contemporaries, which
was the only alternative procedure,



would actually amount ,to no more’

than talking of himself at second
hand. But by talking of himself and
his writings at: first hand, he could
give authoritative information; he
could explain the relation of his mate-
rial’ to his verse and describe the
structure and purpose of the poems
he read. :

First he spoke of the preface to
Conquistador, This is the story of
the Conquest of Mexico told through
the mouth of a humble fighting soldier,
Bernal Diaz. Just as he relates them,
these deeds were really done, for Diaz
was an actual historical figure. Al-
though he marched in all the early ex-
peditions into Mexico, and was one of
the troop who occupied the chief city,
Colua, he received no recognition for
his services. After petitioning the
Spanish government for years, he was
at last granted a barren little farm
in Guatemala. There he returned in
despair; he married a native woman
“But a
musty student called} Gomara, who
knew nothing of the old campaigns,
undertook to write their history in
such a way that all glory went to Cor-
tez, and none to the soldiers who had
fought and endured. Indignantly,
Diaz, half blind, ancient, and feeble

LECTURE ON MAYA

The Philadelphia Committee of the
Fiftieth Anniversary of the Founding
of Bryn Mawr College annotinces a
lecture by Mr. Sylvanus Morley on
The Maya, The Most Brilliant Civili-
zation of Ancient America, on Mon-
day, May 13, in-Goodhart at 8.20. The
lecture will be illustrated by colored
lantern slides. ’

Mr. Morley has been director of the
project of the Carnegie Institute of
Washington at Chichen Itza in Yuca-
tan since 1924.. He is one of the lead-
ing archaeologists in the middle Amer-
ican field. He took his A.B. degree at
Pennsylvania Military College in 1904
and received his Ph.D. there in 1921.
He ‘also holds an M.A. degree from
Harvard. He has had long experience
in the practical-side of archaeology
and among other things he worked
from 1909-1914 in Central America
and Mexico for the School of American
Archaeology. He has been an associ-
ate in the Carnegie Institute since
1915 and is\in charge of. the expedi-
tions to Central America, -

Mr. Morley is particularly interest-
ed in Maya hieroglyphic writing and
in general problems in middle Ameri-
can archaeology. He has been trying
to determine the Maya manner of
speaking, a subject which is not yet
very well developed. Some of his
most exciting archaeological finds in-
clude some beautiful turquoise mo-
saics. ‘He has written several authori-

‘tative books on his subject — among

them An. Introduction to, the Study
of Maya Hieroglyphs, gn ZRF; iqand
Inscriptions at Copan, in 20.

This lecture promises to be inter-

esting not only to all those working in
archaeology, but also to the layman;
Mr. Morley is a brilliant and lucid lec-
turer, and has done some significant

-work which he will demonstrate with
his slides and lecture.

Germany had ungratefully dismissed
her because of her Jewish parentage,
she spent two happy and fruitful
years in America.

There were several further ee
ship announcements made. Vung-
Yuin Ting, of the Class of 1935, has
been awarded a: four-year. scholar-
ship at the Medical School of the
University of Michigan. Five stu-
dents. are to study at various univer-
sities in Germany this summer, They
include Adelaide Mary Davidson,
Graduate Student; Sarah Helen Todd,
’36; Catherine Adams Bill, ’35; Louise
Atherton Dickey, ’87, and Jeannette
Morrison, ’35. These scholarships are
given by the Institute for Interna-
tional Education:

The general theme of Miss Park’s
address on “Self-Government” was:
“In time of peace, prepare for war.”
At this moment when there is no spe-
cial case of infringement of the Self-
Government regulations, it is wise to
discuss the importance of these regu-
lations. For 44 years Bryn Mawr
students have been governed by them-
selves. The immediate problems of
life in a community such as this are
embodied in the words of a set of
rules, which are important as means

to the end of controlled college exist-|

ence planned to give maximum liberty
to the individual and minimum fric-
tion to the community.

Curriculum schedules are planned
and adhered to in order to assure that
each student will receive that for
which she comes here. Rules are
made and followed for the care and
feeding of babies and children in order
that they may receive the attention

necessary and proper for their best |

development. * Self-Government regu-
lations have always been, from their
beginning under President Thomas,
for that purpose. The achievement of
this purpose depends on an intelligent
public and a few careful officers. The
responsibility which must fall on each
student cannot be set down in. the
rules themselves, but is self-evident in
the whole governing’ body.



SUTER TO RETURN

In a year when the Alumnae As-
sociation is contributing so much to
the college, it seems suitable to an-
nounce now one more addition to the
steadily increasing number of gifts,
Donations from individual members
of the Association have made it pos-
sible for the Sunday Service Commit-
tee to invite Dr. John W. Suter, Jr.,
rector of the Church of the Epiphany,
New York City, to hold seven serv-
ices during the coming winter. Dr.
Suter has chosen to come for four
Sundays in October: and three more
in the spring. The Committee wishes
$e thank the Alumnae Association
for making this possible.

Because the Committee feels that a
greater interest and-enthusiasm for
Chapel develops when a aninister is
on the campus for more than one
Sunday, it has been able to arrange
to have Dr. Alexander C. Zabriskie
of the Theological Seminary, Alex-
andria, Virginia, and Dr. William
Pierson Merrill, rector of the Brick
Presbyterian Church of New York
City, come to the campus for three
Sundays each. This means that the
main interest in Chapel will eenter
around these three ministers, but a
few outstanding speakers of other
denominations will be invited to fill
qut the quota of services.

Dennis Dance Group

Gives Varied Recital



Selection, Use of Music Superb
In Faithful Interpretation
Of Mood, Rhythm



MANY INFLUENCES FUSED



(Especially Contributed-by Marna
V. Brady)

Variety characterized the program
of dances presented by Estelle Dennis
and her Concert Group in Goodhart
Hall, on April 18. Miss Dennis be-
lieves that there is a place for lyric
as well as angular and_ distorted
movement in the dance today, and
demonstrated that her group can. do
both exceedingly well.

Impromptu danced by Dorothea
Brinkmann and the Concert Group,
was a study in movement and group-
ing to music by Reger.

Love For. Three Oranges, one of
the’ high spots of the evening, was
danced by Estelle Dennis, assisted
by Tom Mele—and~ Dorothea Brink-
mann. Miss Dennis has a definite
feeling for the mood of Prokofieff’s
music and her choreography was
well-adapted to it. As a dancer she
is gifted in: expressing the mock un-
couthness and the humorous quality
of this composer’s work. The unique
costumes of greenish tights and yel-
low cellophane’ were designed by
Miss Dennis herself.

Gymnopedie, a line study by Char-
lotte Boekel and Dorothea Brinkmann,
was a series of statuesque poses con-
nected by a sustained movement. The
dance took place on a small platform
against a back drop of black, and
was illuminated by a _ bluish light
which gave the dancers’ bodies the
appearance of marble.

In the Seriabin Prelude Opus 11—

Etude opus 8, interpreted as ‘doom-
ed” and. “rebellion,” Miss Dennis

showed she had a controlled body at
her command. Her movements were
not ultra-modern, and she used her
hands well. The dance itself was
less subtle in interpretation and ex-
pression than some of her others.
The Chopin Waltz, a purely lyrical
garland dance done by the Concert
Group, was welcomed by the audi-
ence for its feeling of joy in move-

Plays Modern Composers



Mr. Guy Marriner, in the first of a
series of lecture-recitals on’ Modern
Composers, discussed the revolution-
ary work: of Debussy in the develop-
ment of Impressionism and the penta-

sidered briefly the work of. Ravel, es-
pecially in its use of the major sev-
enth. Phese two composers, in at-
fempting to express their own artistic
ideals as completely as possible, con-

tradicted all conventional rules of
rhythm and harmony.
Debussy was born near Paris in

1862 and after studying privately he
entered the Paris Conservatory, wheré
he ‘shocked his masters and fellow-
pupils by writing strange harmonies
in utter defiance of all the traditional
rules which were taught there. When,
like Beethoven, he was advised to curb
his experiments. and relinquish his
wild ideas, he insisted that so long as
the sound was not unpleasant there
was no reason to abide by harmonic
rules. When he was awarded the
Prix de Rome he used this opportun-
ity in the Italian city to work out his
novel ideas. Shortly after his return
he visited Bayreuth, where he was
impressed by Wagner’s work, but was
unable to give it his unqualified ad-
miration. Boris Godounov had a more
profound effect upon:him.. By this
time Debussy was completely cut off
from all his musical colleagues be-
cause of his new theories of harmony.
His sympathies drew him to the poets
and .painters whose conceptions were
similar to his own, Many of these art-
ists were attempting to separate the
reactions of sense and reason, and to’
give pure. artistic impréssion - by
avoiding direct representation. | This
was the beginning of Impressionism
into which Debussy entered with all
his soul and energy. Henceforth he
attempted to create the emotions re-
sulting from thought, ‘sound, color,
scent, and similar sensations as dis-
tinct from the direct representation
of these experiences. He developed
his idiom from chords of the seventh,

Seniors Scramble For Hoops In Goodhart |
As Rainy Dawn Fails To Damp May Spirit



At precisely 5.30 A. M. on the morn-
ing of May 2, the campus rang with
the raucous ery of alarm-clocks, and
the class of 1937 rose to greet a gray
and dismal morning. Donning any-
thing white that happened to be hang-
ing out of a bureau drawer or lying on
the closet floor, they jammed a few
wilted apple blossoms into their lit-
tle yellow May-baskets, plastered gen-
ial smiles upon their wan_ coun-
tenances, and- made off in the direc-
tion of the fearful -din that they ree-
ognized as the rest of their class and
the waking-song. ‘In a few minutes,
every undergraduate, freshman as
well as senior, was sighing: blissfully
as the pleasant tune -gently called her
from an unregretted slumber. Almost
an hour must have passed before a
slight agitation became noticeable in
the smoking rooms, and the gracious
seniors descended to their coffee and
rolls. After a leisurely repast, they
garbed themselves in caps and gowns,
and set off to wake the President with
The Hunt Is Up. We must congratu-
late Miss Park on being a most rapid
dresser; in no time at all, she was
being conducted by the hungry hordes
on the way to Rockefeller.

Here, the seniors scrambled up the
tower stairs, and assembled on _ the
arch roof. They shuffled their fect,
cleared their throats, and stared at
their song-books; in vain they tried
to spot the sun to whom the song was
dedicated. They were very much mis-
tresses of the moment, however; al-
though realizing that there was no
sun, with all the savoir faire in the
world, they burst forth with their
mabiin..SOng—----«,

When they wére finished, they trip-
ped down once more from their lofty
situation. Joining the undergraduate:
jumble in Rockefeller, they watched
with interest, as Miss Edith Rose, of
Mexico City, crowned Miss _ Betty
Lord, of Peoria, queen of the May.

Close on the heels of this ceremony
followed a stampede for breakfast in
the various halls, and thr a moment
the campus was_comparatively silent.

At eight, the college was out again,
milling about Taylor in noisy antici-
pation of our seniors’ antics. Profes-
sional photographers were draped over
Taylor steps, while the amateurs eag-
erly occupied themselves .with . poses
of the Misses Gardiner.’ Suddenly, we
were aware of a strange thumping in
the distance. “A Communist Pa-
rade!” a freshman shrieked, but a
motherly sophomore quieted her, and
explained that it was just the band
that had played for her on Parade
Night. Then, with a giant blare, the
band itself appeared, playing the fa
miliar strains of the Morris On, —

In front of the band, Peggy Little
was executing her one-two-three hop
to perfection. Behind it, we were
conscious of somewhat similar leaps
and bounds on the part of her class-
mates, who were very cleverly swing-
ing their May-baskets in time to the
music. They rounded Taylor corner
accurately, and then made for the low-
er campus, carefully avoiding Senior
Row and the grass-seed as they did
so.

As we skipped around the dancers

“winding the May-poles, we had a mo-

ment to think. We realized that the
lower campus is just made for Little
May-Day; at the same time, we could
not help formulating an axiom to our-
selves, namely, that ability in May-
pole winding varies inversely with
learning, and with experience, for

,number of scheduled quizzes.

Bachelor of Arts

‘The recent article about campus life which appeared in Vogue | con-
tained a number of comments which. were rather novel to many. Among
the most interesting of these was the remark-that “Bryn Mawr is very
much of a singing college.” To be sure, we have always been justly proud
of the musical education which can be obtained here, but nevertheless, we
have frequently felt that our singing has become almost an incidental*and
perhaps an outworn tradition. We would like to see not only the continu-
ance of our interest in group singing, but also the development of a greater
number of group activities of all sorts. The ability to entertain and amuse
oneself and one’s friends is a valuable and important one, and it is often
neglected to such an extent that: we become dependent on outside sources
ofa more formal and more expensive’ nature.

It has long been our belief that there are far too many people whose
real talents go undiscovered and unappreciated in the general course of
college life. Not only is the musical interest and ability of many students
not uncovered for the benefit of their fellows, but many other qualities and
interests, such as the reading and writing of poetry and the pursuit of
various hobbies, are not; revealed. Some energy is, nevertheless, being
expended along this line in several fields. For example, the course in Play
Writing affords the ambitious would-be dramatist the Opportunity to see
her play staged, and thus she may gain some idea of its qualities, its pro-
portions and its facility for production.
poets who occasionally meet to listen to one another’s poetry and to help
each_ other with difhcult—problems.—_Still_another—activity—is_the—-weekly
meeting of the artistically minded who gather together to model and to do
charcoal drawings in the secrecy of the Gymnasium basement.

There is room for a great deal more of this type of interest, however.
One of the least developed spheres of activity is music, in which there are
already the regular and formal organizations like Glee Club and Choir.
These, however, require special abilities which not everyone is so fortunate
as ‘to possess. Next Sunday’s entertainment at the Deanery should give
us an inspiration for the possibilities of music for ordinary mortals. The
idea behind the program is that almost everybody can be musical or have
musical interests if he only puts the time and the interest into it. If, per-
haps, a group of students could organize themselves along somewhat the
same lines as the amateur group which is to play here next Sunday, we
feel sure that not only would they themselves profit immensely thereby, but
that, in addition, their fellows of lesser ability would gain both enjoyment
and satisfaction. Once such a development as this were instituted, and
interest aroused, it would be a comparatively simple matter to carry this
kind of activity into other fields as well.



Oyez! Oyez!

We have been informed that the faculty are soon going to consider
and vote on the question of reducing the number of scheduled quizzes. We
feel, therefore, that we must once more take up the gauntlet and reiterate
our desire for fewer mid-semester examinations. -

We are wholeheartedly in favor of a considerable reduction in the
The report of the Curriculum Committee in
February suggested that such quizzes be omitted in Freshman English,
French and German literature, half-unit and one-hour courses, and advanced
courses. In several other unit courses there should be quizzes in the first
semester only, chiefly to acclimate the Freshmen to our college ways. Most
important of all, with this reduction it would be possible to decrease the
quiz period from four weeks to eight college days. Reading quizzes could
and should still be given, but these would not come at a time when we were
already busy with other similar tests.

There are many convincing reasons that we, at least, can find to sup-
port these suggestions. We admit that the purpose of quizzes,—to coérdi-
nate lecture’ and reading material, to show the student where she stands,
and to make her catch up on’ her work,—is an admirable one. In practice?
however, it is a different matter. Quizzes seem to interrupt rather than
to promote the reorganization of work. They are particularly~upsetting to
advanced-and honor students, who must stop their regular work te concen-
trate on some other subject in which they are not so primarily interested.

- The standard of work goes down considerably during the quiz period, and

the number of cuts greatly increases. .This does not always mean that we

‘are dilatory and do nothing until the night before the quiz, but, age it |.

GUESS WHO?

A young lady from Bryn Mawr
College,;who was writing a thesis on
labor problems for a-course in eco-
nomics, picked the Autocar Company
as the most likely subject. She inter-
viewed one of the officials of the
Company and impressed him by the
pertinent questions she asked. “That
young lady knows what she wants,”
he thought. She expressed a desire
to go through the factory and. the
official suggested that she come
around in a couple of: days. When
she returned it-happened that he
was tied up with conferences and
could not see her. So she explained
the situation to the doorman. He
told her that it would not be possi-
ble for her to go through the fac-
tory at that time. His unstated rea-
son: the young lady was, as he put
it, “all dolled up” and had bare legs.
The sight of so much epidermis and
pulchritude, he was . afraid, would
have an unfavorable effect on the
efficiency of the workers in the plant.
Perhaps if she were to put on dark
glasses, cotton stockings and a
shapeless dress the doorkeeper might
be more lenient.

THE SCHIST OF THE PLAY |

Coral, a simple Devonian maid, is
just back from Schooley and lives with
her uncle, Gastropod.. Gastropod is
very hard when he isn’t in his cups,
but then he’s biotite. He is trying
to teach Coral to shale her own boat.

Trilobite has loved Coral since she
was a little dike. Coral is timiskam-
ing of love, but Slickensides is Boul-
der. Slickensides has just flowed into
town, and is trying to make a con-
tact with Trilobite. Her cleavage is
good, but Trilobite just says, “Let’s
put on the radiolarian.”

Coral knows it isn’t her fault that
she is too slate to get Trilobite. Coral
is so dippy from grief that she wants
to strike out on her own. Syncline
plunges into town to stay with his
mother’s sister, Anticline. Syncline

squeeze Coral, but she is resistant.

He threatens Syncline.

diorite,” he says.

Syneline tightens his tropical belt
and gives him a glacial stare.

“Striations!” he cries.

Blastoid does not hesitate. He
shoots Syncline. He turns to Coral.

“T did it for the best,” he says. “He
was just a serpentine at heart. May
you and Trilobite be conformable.”
Coral folds up.

Blastoid realizes he is a murderer.
He blows out his brains and is buried
in his five-fold symmetry.

Slickensides has decided that Trilo-
bite is nothing but’a moraine. She
has found that in spite of his dapper
pygidium he is really impecunious.
She is pursuing the more opulent, but
crusty colonel, Gastropod. Trilobite
still loves Coral.

Coral’s secret ambition is to have a
little colonial home in the south with
a crinoid garden. So she is only too
pleased when Trilobite come up and
says, “Let’s play the radiolarian.”

She shows him the spirifer of the
little chert on the hill and they ooze
out together.

Oh micaceous!

News of the New York Theatres
Despite the usual spring lethargy
that prevails on Broadway, theatrical
activities have not been- completely
suspended. There are still several
tried-and-true productions (and some
tried-and-not-so-true), on the boards,
and several openings have _ been
scheduled for the near future. Any-
thing Goes is to run for eight weeks
more, while Petrified Forest, Tobacco
Road, and Personal Appearance con-
tinue to attract the Great American
Audience. And;-we urge, still, again,
and just as strongly as ever, that
you see The Children’s Hour.
-Two rumors, both of. them very
interesting, have been ~-whispered
about lately. Katherine Cornell is
reputed to be planning a revival of
her most outstanding success, Can-
dida, upon the demise of her current
vehicle, Flowers of the Forest. Miss
Cornell has been quite faithful to her
plan, new this year, of'presenting a
number of plays rather than one, in
a season. Candida, if produced,
should crown her efforts of the year.
The Lunts, now loitering in Genesee
Depot, Wisconsin,. are said to have
Anthony and Cleopatra up their
sleeves. If they return, and return
in such glory, as this, from their
ignominious retirement after Point
Valaine, the result should be a high
point of the year.

4 IN PHILADELPHIA

Theatres

Broad: The Bishop Behaves is a
decidedly mediocre drama. about a
bishop who turns detective. Cecil
Lean and Cleo Mayfield take the lead-
ing roles in the production.

Chestnut: ‘In First Legion there
are a few memorable moments. It is
a moving picturization of faith lost
and regained, laid among a group of
Jesuit priests. Bert Lytell plays the
lead.

Academy of Music: The Savoy
Opera Company will present Gilbert
and Sullivan’s Ruddigore on Friday
and Saturday. The cast of this. op-
eretta, sub-titled The Witch’s Curse,
will include Frank Moulan, William
Swayze, Marjorie Snowden and Junia
Culbertson.

Movies °

Aldine: George Arliss in Cardinal
Richelieu will be replaced on Satur-
day by Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables,
with Fredric March, Charles Laugh-
ton, Florence Eldridge, Rochelle Hud-
son and many others. The screen ver-
sion of the classic falls short of the
standard set by Hugo, but it is inter-
esting to see just how Hollywood pro-
duces,. in about three minutes, the
period spent in the sewers. If you
don’t want to see a fairly chopped
production, avoid this.

Arcadia: On Friday Naughty
Marietta, with Jeanette MacDonald
and Nelson Eddy, will supplant Miss-
issippi. A spectacle, full of good sing-
ing, it is one of the better movies now
running.

Boyd: G-Men is, a dashing melo-
drama, which, though not top-notch,
is the best of entertainment. It is a
story of the struggles of the organized
Government men against the better
organized gangsters and racketeers of
the underworld. James Cagney, Mar-
garet Lindsey, Ann Dvorak and Rob-
ert Armstrong head the cast.

Earle: Friday brings Party Wive,
with Jean Arthur and Victor Jory.

A poor excuse for any kind of enter- ©

tainment and not. worth considering.

Fox: That star of stars, Miss Shir-
ley Temple, arrives this Friday as
Our Little Girl.
obviously for its leading lady, but she
turns in another of her natural per-
formances, which makes it all right.
Joel McCrea and Rosemary Ames help
Shirley smile. Z

Karlton: Baby Face Harrington,
with Una Merkel and Charles Butter-
worth. Those two riotous fun-makers
make ‘it an hilarious show.

Keith’s: Black Fury, featuring
Paul Muni and Karen Morley, begins
Friday. A picture of the existence in
the coal-mining districts, which is dra-
matic and sincere. Worth seeing, if
only for its timeliness: ~

Stanley: The Bride of von, Git
stein, with Boris Karloff, Elsa Lan-
chester and Colin Clive, will open on
Saturday. The long-awaited sequel to
the horror film, Frankenstein, is a
gruesome picture, which will make
you either squirm or turn up your
nose and walk out.

tion. :

On Wednesday the Bryn Mawr
Tennis team had another successful
Varsity
won all of the four matches ed—
three singles matches and one dou-
bles, In spite of the cold weather,
the’ Bryn Mawr team warmed up
easily and kept up their usual fast
and steady pace against a flashy but
quickly tiring team.

The first match between Faeth, of

Bryn Mawr, and Marsh, of Beaver,# a

went to Miss Faeth with the decisive
scores of 6-1 and 6-2. . Miss Faeth’s
long drives and good placing gave
her the advantage over her opponent
who was rather ‘weak and slew on

The next match was won by Betty
Perry against Staples, of Beaver.
The first two sets were evenly
matched with scores of 7-5 and 5-7,
but Miss Perry won the third 6-0.
Her opponent’s main point was her
placing; she consistently drew Miss

good example of a steady player
wearing down a flashy one.*

The match between Little and Orr
was again won by Bryn Mawr when
the Beaver player dropped the first
two sets 4-6 and 2-6. “Miss Little
played unusually. well, and although
she missed some of her opponents’

it by steady pounding drives and ace
services.

Because of lack of time, only one
doubles match was played and this one
was- between Jackson and Little, of
Bryn Mawr, and Marsh and Orr, of
Beaver. Jackson and Little repeated
the succfBses of the early afternoon
by taking the first two sets 6-0 and
6-3. The Beaver team seemed a lit-
tle tired after their earlier matches
whereas Jackson was perfectly fresh
and Little seemed unaffected by the
strain of her earlier match.

Visits Campus on Tour



On. Saturday, May 4, a group of
English men and women visited the
college under the guidance of Miss
Anne Tynan, herself an English

woman, who is particularly interested

in Bryn Mawr. She “studied here
about fifteen years ago in the Carola
Woerischoffer Department of Social

.Economy, and considers the year she

spent at Bryn Mawr very impottant,
as it greatly influenced her career..
Since her return to England she has
been ®ssociated with the 2 League of
Nations Union and is particularly in-
terested in its political side. Her
duties include escorting groups of
the various local unions of the asso-
ciation- on observation trips in dif-
ferent -countries. They travel with
the purpose of investigating condi-
tions in these countries and of

‘esablishing friendly relations between

them and England. They are mem-
bers in some cases of the working
class, and all of them are interested
in labor conditions everywhere.

There -were twelve in the group
who ‘were shown the campus and en-
tertained in Goodhart.. One of them
is especially -interested in the prob-
lem of slum clearing and better hous-
ing conditions for the working
classes. He is a member of the Mu-
nicipal Council of the Labor. Party
in Leeds which is at present occupied
with remedying these unfortunate
conditions. The Council is trying to
do away with the very unsatisfactory

little “back-to-back”? houses’ in ‘which

many of the Leeds. workers are
obliged to live. He is also President
of the Central Labor Union of Leeds.

Miss Park, Dr. and Mts. Smith,
Miss Kingsbury, and Dr. Fenwick
were assisted by Miss Howe, Migs
ReQua and several of the undergrad-
uates in entertaining and _ talking
with the visitors at the reception
given them in the Common Room.
Miss Tynan described the visitors as
the “sturdy, hard-working people who
are the backbone of the League of
Nations Union in this country (Great
Britain). They are not rich or dis-
tinguished, except with the\ very real
distinction that comes from devotion
to an ideal.”



Rainy Morning Fails
To Damp May Spirit

exactly as friend Vogue relates,
It’s quite unique, and well apart
from stern Reason’s cold dic-

tates;
For e’er the dawn comes up like
thunder o’er doomed Dalton

’cross the way,
We’re roused, and not by Tenn’son’s
‘mother dears,’ to greet the

nor communists in Central |

We’re full of May Day spirit,. and |

of many thanks to you, Miss
Park

After much laughter and applause,
the crowd scattered, only to find them-
selves once more reunited, this time
in Goodhart. The undergraduates all
had a good time clapping for the sen-
iors’ skipping, and they behaved very

ve dae

and |

nicely during chapel. When it was
over, however, and someone announc-
ed that because of the rain, hoop-roll-
ing would take place indoors, -there
was some confusion. The aisle was a
bit narrow, and it is impossible to
state just who the lucky hoop-roller
was who won early matrimony as her
prize. Phe hoops and sticks were giv-
en away by their weary possessors,
who, were forced between nfany a row
of seats; and over many a chair-back
before they could reach. the fprtunate
heiresses.* .At one point, we thought
we heard a voice say, “Yes, sir! That’s
my Baby!” and, upgn looking up, we
were both prised and pleased to -
see a young dogfish with ‘a’ ribbon
around his neck, entering the hand-
me-down tradition.

At the knell of ten o’clock, the party
ended with a round of class songs, and
students and professors wended their
ways to work. The subsequent classes
seemed to be peculiarly marked by an
undertone of humming, as well as by
a lack of concentration. All in all, we
think it was a most successful May-
Day, in spite of the gtass-seed, and
the strange numeral on the calendar.



ROSEMONT SERVICE

At Miss Park’s suggestion, the Bryn
Mawr College Choir took part in a
Special Service of Musie with the
Good Shepherd Choir in the Church
of the Good Shepherd at Rosemont.
The service was held on Sunday, May
fifth, at four-thirty and Solemn Even-
song was sung by the combined
choirs,: including Psalms chanted to
special arrangements, The Magnificat,
the Nune Dimittis and the Te Dewm
of Stanford in B Flat. ° The Bryn
Mawr Choir appreciated very much
the opportunity of singing with the
choir of men’s and boys’ Voices.

In addition the following selections
were sung by the Bryn Mawr College
Choir:

“T waited for the Lord” (from
“Hym of Praise’) Mendelssohn
“Tenebrae factae sunt,”
“Crucifixus”
Palestrina
“The Lord is my Shepherd” Schubert
“O Jesu, so sweet,”
‘Now all the woods are sleeping,”
J.S. Bach
“Hallelujahs Amen” (from “Judas
Maccabaeus’’) Handel
The music of both choirs was under
the direction of Mr. Willoughby, who
is organist and choirmaster of the
Chuch of the Good Shepherd.



MUSIC FOR FUN

The eleventh of the series of Sun-
day afternoon entertainments in the
Deanery is a musical program given .
by Catherine Drinker Bowen, to be
held next Sunday at 5 P. M. The
title of the program, Music Without
a Ticket, does not, perhaps, reveal
the interesting nature of Mrs. Bow-
en’s entertainment. Shé is a great
believer in making music available to
a large group of people and is par-
ticularly interested in getting more
people to take an active part in mus-
ical, affairs. She organized a group
of amateur musicians from among
her family and friends who gather
together frequently for musical eve-
/nings. They had so much fun doing
| this that Mrs. Bowen thought that
/more people ought to have a chance
to see\how really easy it-is to or-
ganize such a group. Accordingly,
she and her friends are coming to
the Deanery not only to play ordin-
ary selections, but also to show how
to compose songs and group pieces,
All those who are musically minded
should make a point of attending
the program.

. Theater Review
Ernest Truex*and Company are
opening on Broadway in a new play
which is billed as a comedy. It was
written by Stephen Gross and Jack
Lait, and the cast includes Edith Tali-
ferro, Helen Lynd, Frederick Howard
and Mr. Truex’s’son, Philip. The plot,

.a satire on. radio (which, in itself, does

not seem particularly revolutionary),
nevertheless is based on an idea that
had possibilities of developing into
something as hilarious as Once In A
Lifetime; but the manner in-which it
is presented is anything but novel.

* Mr. Truex plays the part of Victor
Vance or “Uncle Abe,’ a homey phil-
osopher of the air-waves. He wanders
into a conference at which a search
is in progress for a program to adver-
tise the product of the wealthy, but
conservative manufacturer of Ponce

.de Leon pills.





. Choir Appointment
Lois. Marean, ’37, has been
chosen. Choir ~Manager for
1935-386.







Since Uncle Abe is a
typical middle-aged character, atid
since Ponce de Leon pills have the ef-
fect of wappaeiet ~~ — users, it is
decided that“Victor Vance is the ideal
star to advertise them. He will dem-
onstrate to a vast radio audience, five
nights a week, that romance need not
be absent from the lives of old’ men
who are faithful in their use of Ponce

| de Leon pills. |

In order convince anyone who
might be skeptical about the remark-
able effect of his product, the manu-
facturer arranges to have Uncle Abe
marry his young ward, Orphan Nell,
in a great public ceremony broadcast
from coast to coast. Because- under
no other conditions will the manufac-
turer ‘sign the contract for the series
of programs, Victor Vance agrees to
go through with the bona-fide wed-
ding, although he is forced to sneak
off and divorce his devoted wife be-
fore he can marry his young co-star.
To make matters more complicated,
Orphan Nell (played by Helen Lynd)
is revealed as an ambitious, shrill, per-
oxided shrew, who becomes attached
to’ their sponsor in order to outwit
Uncle Abe and to achieve greater
prominence for herself. in radio. In
the end, Uncle Abe manages to in-
validate their wedding by a simple
feat of léger de main performed on
the officiating bishop, who is afflicted
with mike-fright. This accomplish-
ment forms the weakest dénoument
and.the most ineffective curtain that
have graced an Ernest Truex play for
many a year.

The management made its appear-
ance’ on the stage of the Broad The-
atre Thursday night, to explain that
a scene of the play had been cut out,
and that the number of acts had been
reduced from three to two. At least
two of the spectators felt that the
scene which immediately followed this
announcement could have been left
out also without doing any damage to
the production other than making the
play much too short. This scene takes
place in the penthouse, presumably, of
Orphan Nell the night before her wed-
ding. It gives Helen Lynd a chance
to wear some tight-fitting green satin
lounging pajamas, threaten | suicide;
and reduce her sponsor to a weakened
condition, during which she calls him
Daddy, and he merely looks pained.
Beyond this, it enables the audience
to become more familiar with Miss
Lynd’s high and raucous voice, which
is doubtless supposed to be an exam-
ple of the feminine voices on the av-
erage radio program.

The acting, for the most part, was
distinguished for great exaggeration,
amounting to hamishness in some of
the minor comic parts, All in all, how-
ever, Mr. Truex restrained himself

ninth, and eleventh applied to. the
whole-tone scale which was probably
derived from the Japanese music that
he heard in the Paris Exposition of
1889. Mr, Marriner illustrated these
theories by the Toccata and the Clair
de lune, in which the chords are
played in whole-tone succession with-
out any attempt at resolution, the har-
mony being produced by decoration
and technique. In the Gardens in the
Rain Debussy experimented with brok-
en chords based on the seventh and
thirteenth instead of the conventional
triad.

Debussy also employed the penta-
tonic scale which is to be found in
primitive music all over the world.
This scale.is formed by eliminating
the semitones between the third and
the fourth, and the seventh and the
eighth degrees of the scale. In the
Girl with the Flaxen Hair, Mr. Marri-
ner showed how Debussy had employ-
ed this scale effectively by using
rhythmic variety to relieve monotony
resulting from the use of only five
notes. Mr. Marriner played the Little
Litanies Of Jesus, by Gabriel Grovlez.
One of Debussy’s greatest concep-
tions, the Submerged Castle, is writ-
ten in organum, a very old form in-
volving the use of open chords of the
fifth and sixth which more modern
rules absolutely forbid.

MacLeish Reads Pret
' Taken From Own Work

«Continued from Page ‘One



as he was, wrote another history of
the conquest — the true history, as
those saw it who had bled in its bat-
tles. As an artistie performance the
book is a failure; as a living monu-
ment it is thrilling; and from. this
aspect of it came the material for
Conquistador. :

In the preface. to Conquistador Ber-
nal Diaz is remembering for the first
time in many' years all his dead com-
panions and their dead days; at pat-
memories are
crossed: by hiS “living indignation
against Gomara’s pedantic impudence.
The lines here are uneven with un-
even thought; they are full of shift-
ing ideas, and of vagueness clarified
now and again by strong recollection;
they are wandering and repetitious
like an old man’s talking. As Mr.
MacLeish read them, his voice as-
sumed somewhat the character and
emotion of Diaz, so that he made the
old man live as if in a play, yet at
the same time he maintained by an
unbroken, rhythmic flow of sound, the
impersonal form of the poem.

Contrasting with the dim confusion
of the preface, Mr. MacLeish’s verses
from a later part\of Conquistador,
where he described Colua, the Mexi-
can city, were clear and quiet. Then
Bernal Diaz was happy, and the city
was beautiful. The words which he
supposedly spoke tell of bright sun
and water, cool nights and_ sleepy
noons, and the smell of growing earth.
In Mr. MacLeish’s reading, the long
cadences made a strong simple music
like that of a Hebrew psalm.

The Hamlet of A. MacLeish is a
poem of which the author did not ap-
prove; nevertheless, he gave a selec-
tion from it because it is typical of a
whole’ generation who have experi-
enced the same problems and the same
reactions that Hamlet experienced.
The background for the poem is the
French Riviera, and its skeletal struc-
ture is that of the play, Hamlet. It

is simply clothed with personal psy-



chology gather than * Shakespeare’s
imaginings. Mr. MacLeish’s _ sélec-
tion was a scene parallel to the ghost
scene in the actual play. Instead of
an apparition of a king, the ghost is
some intangible horror, whose pres-
ence can be sensed waiting in the
night, hiding behind words, half re-
vealing itself inpmusic or in faces, yet
never quite .perceived’ and_ identified.
In conformity to the bewildered, er-
ratic thoughts df Mr. MacLeish as
Hamlet, the poem is written in be-
wildered, erratic phrases which con-
yey nothing definite, only the sense of |
some terror standing unseen, but very
near,

Lines.For A Prologue were in the
same subjective manner, and in the
same way expressed a sensation rath-
er than an idea. , Although Mr. Mac-
Leish spoke objectively again in Cine-
ma of A Man, he gave a picture seen
clearly but unthinkingly, rather than
an analytical ‘observation and conclu-
sion. In Corporate Entity, however,
his method changed entirely. He be-
came humorous and slyly satirical.
There is a strange legal fantasy, he
explained, which exists in this coun-
try, and is indeed one of the bases of
our civilization, to the effect that a
corporation possesses a soul capable
of separate existence. By means of
this convenient conception, a company
is enabled to perform business of
somewhat doubtful legality without
casting blame upon the “Secretary,
Treasurer, President, Directors or Ma-
jority stockholders.” Another Amer-
ican fantasy is the expectation of a
great national novel. To mock this
feeble hope, Mr. MacLeish read Criti-
cal Observations, ironically exhorting
his hearers:

“Let us await the great. American
novel!”

Verses For A Centennial put to
scorn one more idiosyncrasy of our
countrymen who delight in commem-
orating with foolish ceremonies ‘the
anniversaries of famous dead.

Returning to a serious mood, Mr.
MacLeish read Memory Green and its
sequels, Not Marble Nor the Gilded



‘Monuments and. Unfinished. History.

The first two poems are in praise of
love and the beauty of women, but the
last one inquires with dread what may
come after love. Only Not Marble

Nor the Gilded Monuments had any |.

rhyme scheme, and the pattern here
was slight and free; yet in all three
poems the meter was carefully adjust-
ed to the grave emotion, or in turn
to the light loveliness of a young girl.
For he ,
“Sprang the obstinate words to the
* .. bones of her breast,
| ‘And the stubborn line to her young
stride, and the breath to her
breathing,

And the beat t haste.”

Before Mr. acLeish. read the
chorus of his new play,Panie,-he~ad-
monished the audience that it was

the duty of all coming writers to find
a verse form fit for the stage, and an
action of sufficient dignity to sustain
verse successfully. Then he explained
that Panic was written about the
time two years ago when all the banks
of the country were closing, and
America’s financial pulse stood still in
impotence and dread. The story of
the poem arises from the conflict be-
tween the self-reliance habitual to a
great capitalist and the blind fear sud-
denly facing him. On the stage, both
the sumptuous office of the protag-
onist and the street where a crowd
have gathered to watch an. electric
news bulletin are shown at once. Mr.
MacLeish spoke the lines in which
the crowd begins to speak in dis-
jointed syllables—“Close—foreclosing
—the doors—closing, foreclosing,” un-
til separate voices are distinguished,
each telling in its own way of the
change and desolation in the land.
Here, as in-so many of his poems, Mr.
MacLeish has captured the feeling of
the irresistible growth of crops, the

long path of the wind, and the turn-
ing of earth, That vitality was
stronger in his chorus than was the
panic.

Many of his poems also have the
characteristic of protesting against
the smug satisfaction, the usurped
honor, tha undeserved well-being of
kings and conquerors and .statesmen,
while those humble men who really
accomplished the glory starve and are
forgotten. Frescoes for Mr. Rockefel-
ler’s City are drawn to express ,the
same. protest, but. mockingly rather
than angrily. Yet Mr. MacLeish does
not reject his love of country because
he thinks such capitalists and states-
men come into unjust possession of it.
He read Landscape As’A Nude, which



is his. picture of America in the West;
She is a lovely land; “She has- brown

Terror Against Students

In spite of repress! geggepsures tak-
en by school administrative authori-

ties, approximately 150,000. students
in the United States struck against
War and Fascism on April 12. From
California to New York attempts were

made to lessen the effectiveness of this :
protest by police brutality and other

tactics.

At Crane Junior College in Chicago
13 students were arre, for distrib-
uting leaflets. One st t was beaten
by two thugs. Two students at
Los Angeles ‘were clubbed into uncon-
sciousness and several suspended.

Dennis Dance Group

Gives Varied Recital :



Continued from Page One

ment. The dancers were graceful
and charming in their flowing cos-.
tumes and handled their garlands
with. skill. They moved from one
pattern to another with no break in
the continuity of the piece, and none
of the sentimentality which some-
times characterizes a dance of that
period.

In the first excerpt from the Clas-
sical Symphony, Miss Dennis danced
with an expert feeling for accent in
music. The next excerpt, however, was
inspired, because Miss Dennis again
caught the fantastic humor of the
composer Prokofieff, as she did in
Love For Three Oranges.

The second part of the program
contained two widely different dances,
En Saga by Sibelius, and On The
Green done to rhythms clapped by
the hands and feet of the chorus and
“‘dancers. En Saga “an abstract bal-
let,” sustained a feeling of religious
exaltation throughout the first and
second parts. Pattern, opposition of
movement, the beat of the dancers
' feet, and the accent of their heads
contributed to the kind of primitive
excitement felt in the chorus called
“Le Sacre Du Printemps.” The deep
purple of the costumes of the group
and the dead white of Miss Dennis’
face against the black curtain pre-
sented a striking picture. The golden
costume which Miss Dennis wore in
the third part was designed for her
and not by her as the others had
been, and lacked the sure touch of
her own creations.

On The Green was. a clever and
amusing character dance performed
by Estelle Dennis, Mary La Motte,
Dorothea Brinkmann, Ruth Pettit
and Charlétte Broekel. The dancers,
attired as- children, used claps and
stamps of the feet for rhythmic beat
in place of music. Miss Dennis, as a
flirtatious young maid, added a touch
of rustic comedy.

Devidassi and Sombar, one an im-
pression of oriental dancing by Char-
lotte Broekel and the Concert Group,
the other a Gypsy dance by Miss
Dennis, were least interesting of the
numbers presented, possibly because
they were impressions of a technique
not native to the group.

Miss Dennis’ costume for Impres-
sions of a Night Club was perfect.
It had the same effect as Agua En-
ters’ chartreuse gloves in Absinthe.
Her dance also had this quality, al-
though the chorus was rather too
literal to be satiric.

_ Rhapsody, to music by Dohnanyi,
was a fitting end to the program, and

the climax of the evening. The
chorus was- costumed in wine red,
Miss Dennis in white. The dance

really expressed the stated motif—
“the struggle of an ideal with con-
flicting emotions.” It was well plan-
ned, well lighted and costumed, and
concluded with a striking group pose.

Particularly worthy of comment
was Miss Dennis’ selection and use
of music in the whole program. The
symphonic numbers were made avail-
able by amplification of orchestral
records. Her interpretations were
not only faithful rhythmically and
melodically, but they caught the
mood of the composer unfailingly.

Of the individual dancers who de-
serve mention, perhaps the most out-
standing was Miss Brinkmann. The
group as a whole is made up of
young dancers. With youth, intelli-,
gence, a willingness to accept good
ideas and movements from all
schools of the Modern Dance, Estelle
Dennis and her Concert Group wilt
be worth watching.

College Agencies Offer
. Exciting Summer Tours

Undergraduates who plan to go
abroad during summer vacation can
‘make all arrangements for their trips
while they are on campus. Several
steamship lines and tourist companies
have representatives at the college,
who are prepared to engage passages,
plan itineraries, and solve many tech-
nical difficulties involved in traveling
to and in Europe. A number of spe-
cial cruises and tours are offered at
extremely reasonable prices.

Doreen Canaday, ’36, is the campus
representative for Europe on Wheels,
Incorporated, a4 company which. plans
almost any variety of:tour. Of espe-
cial interest is the tour to Mexico this
summer, conducted by Miss Louise
Adams Truslew. The trip is a leis-
urely one; the visitors stay in Mexican
homes and travel slowly in order .to
know the country intimately. Con-
trary to the usual belief, Mexico: is
not hot in summer, but possesses a
climate pleasant for travel.

Europe on Wheels, Incorporated,
also offers a number of tours abroad
‘devoted to the study of one or two
special fields of interest. Such.a trip
is the theatrical one through Russia,
England, and Scandinavia. The the-
atre in Moscow and Leningrad, the
German Music festival, and_ the

a’ European tour for economics” and
music students, through England, Hol-
land, and Germany. The students meet
leading European industrialists, spend
a week tn Geneva, some time’in Ger-
many, and will visit the stock ex-
changes in both countries. The nuin-
ber of students in a trip of this sort
is usually. about ten.

In addition to organizing tours of
study in foreign countries, Europe on
Wheels, Incorporated, arranges ‘any
sort of trip abroad for people who pre-
fer to plan their own itinerary. They
will plan trips fotssmall ‘groups or
for individuals.. Through them, also,
automobiles may be rented and deliv-
ered at the boat, to persons who wish
to drive through Europe. American
and foreign care are available.* Stu-
dent identification cards may also be
bought, so that a group of’ students
can get one visa for England instead
of procuring individual visas.

Marie-Louise Van Vechten is the
Bryn Mawr agent for the Holland-
American Line. A Mediterranean and
Norway Cruise of the S. S. Volendam
is being offered among others this
summer. Spain, Italy, Holland, Nor-
way, Denmark and Sweden are among
the places of interest visited during
the cruise. The Student Tourist Class





Schoo! HORTICULTURE .‘..

SUMMER SESSION

Association of the Holland-American
Line has made second-class cabins
available for students’ at unusually
reasonable rates. :

Miss Van Vechten is also the cam-
pus agent for the two Odyssey
Cruises. The cruises this year are
made on the. royal yacht Prince Olav.
The places visited, besides the great
ports, are usually those ignored on
larger tours of the Central Mediter-
ranean, Aegean. and Adriatic Seas.
During the cruise lectures on history,
art and archaeology are given daily.

The Bureau of University Travel,
represented on campus by Barbara
Cary, is a non-profit. making orgianiza-
tion which arranges many cruises. The
places visited are unusual, not those
included in all European itineraries.
Travelers may arrange for complete
cruises, following a planned route, or
may have individual itineraries sug-
gested by the Bureau. If they desire,
they may take separate tours while on
the cruise.

_ The mild cigarette the athletes smoke
as the mild cigarette for YOU! . —

A cigarette so mild you can smoke all you
want—that’s what athletes say about
Camels. And when a champion talks about
“condition” —“wind”—healthy nerves—real
tobacco mildness—he’s got to know.

Gene Sarazen says: “Playing as much as I
do—I have to keep in condition. I smoke
Camels steadily. They are so mild they never
get my ‘wind’— never upset my nerves.”

Other athletes back him, up....“I smoke
all the Camels I want, and keep in top con-
dition,” says Mel Ort, slugger of the New
York Giants. ... Georgia Coleman, Olym pic

diver, says: “Camels don’t cut down on my
‘wind.’”... Bill Miller, oarsman; Jim Lan-
caster, N. Y. U.’s 1934 basketball captain;
John Skillman, pro squash racquets cham-
pion—hundreds of sports stars smoke Camels
regularly and report that Camels never get/~
their “wind” or nerves.

What this mildness means to you! ... It’
means you can smoke Camels all you want!
Athletes have made this discovery: Camel’s
costlier tobaccos are so mild, they can
smoke all they please, without disturbing
their “wind” or nerves.

CONDITION IS IMPORTANT TO YOU TOO—on vacation, in college,
at home. You can keep “in condition,” yet smoke all you please. —

Athletes say: “Camels never gct your wind.”

THEATRE REVIEW

Accent On Youth is a very amus-
ing and highly improbable comedy
satirizing in one breath elderly play-
wrights and young college athletes.
The essential conflict on which the ac-
tion is based comes ftom the strug-
gles of a playwright and a Princeton
man for the affections of Constance
Cummings, who takes the part of
Linda Brown, a young secretary who
has become an actress.

Nicholas Hannen plays the role of
Stephen. Gaye, a successful writer of
comedies who turns out’ a drama
about old loves, in his fiftieth year,
which proves too cunvincing for the
author and the cast. Everyone be-
comes obsessed by the idea that a
young woman may prefer an old man
as a husband to one of her contem-
poraries; and turns to Linda Brown,
the star of the play, as the natural
victim of*their emotional quandry.

|The mix-up which results, prompts

Linda to run away with the juvenile
and then. turn from him to. her old,
hero, the playwright.

Irene Purcell, who has a small part
as a smart and attractive,actress, one
of Stephen Gaye’s former loves, acts
capably and.contributes much of the
