Russia Has Overcome
‘Mental Indifference
pel Ignorance, Blunders,
and Frustration
TOURISTS ENCOURAGED
(Specially Contributed By Edward
Warburg)
A boundary line between two coun-
tries is an extraordinary thing. ‘The
vague differentiations between nation-
al types are here brought face to face
in sharp contrast. This is especially
true on the Russian-Polish border,
which not only separates two nations,
but also two opposing economic sys-
tems. The armed sentries on both sides
and the barbed-wire blockade on the
Polish-side,-stand--as-silent-testimony-
to the mutual mistrust involved. Po-
land, backed by France, represents the
attitude of the many nervous capital-
ists who view the possible success of
the Soviet experiment as a catastro-
phe to the whole Western World. They
feel it their not too secret duty to
impede this experiment in every pos-
sible way,—partly by frontier skir-
mishes, but much more, by derisive
propoganda, by. complete misrepre-
sentation, and, above all, by political
intrigue in the border States. Russia
faces the Western World with no such
belligerent attitude. Her sentries at
this border represent the protective
shell necessary to the maturing of the
enclosed embryo. All attention must
now be centered on the growth of this
embryo and, while outside assistance
is invited and hoped for, the Russian
has, for the present, but little inter-
est in advocating their methods
abroad except in those cases where it
would lead to co-operation. Russians
are, of course, not without hope that,
should their methods prove success-
ful, others might follow, butthat they
know is at present a case of counting
the eggs before they are hatched.
The tourist is recognized in Russia
as one of the-sources for financial
and spiritual support. He not only
brings with’ him his money, but by
coming and seeing for himself, he has
the possibility of returning home
with a saner outlook on the whole sit-
uation, which he may use to help fight
the misrepresentations of the anti-
Soviet press. Therefore everything is
done to make his visit as easy and
enlightening as possible. Against
this the tourist must guard lest he
accept all statements too readily; the
full truth is not always on the sur-
face. “Intourist” is a government or-
ganization formed to promote and aid

Bryn Mawr Varsity
Ties With Swarthmore
Opponents’ Undefeated Team
Again Fails to Overcome
Bryn Mawr Players
RALLY IN SECOND HALF
On Saturday morning, Bryn Mawr
and Swarthmore finished their tenth
annual game in a 2-all tie. Although
Swarthmore came as an_ undefeated
team, the “jinx” which has followed
them in so many of the Bryn Mawr
games was still there. The Varsity,
with a record of total defeat behind
them, rallied in the second half to tie
the score.
During the first half, the players
felt the effects of the frigid weather,
and as a result the play of both
teams was slow and ragged. Stubbs,
Swarthmore right inner; Opened the
scoring by* tallying from a rush on
the circle, and soon scored again
after the forwards had carried the
ball the length of the field. Bryn
Mawr’s—_passwork—-was--uncertain
throughout the half and, although
often within scoring distance, the
offensive was too weak to push the
ball.
In the second half, Varsity .came
to life. The passing of the forwards
was. strong and accurate while the
backs and goal offered the best de-
fense of the season. In spite of the
fact that two of its regulars were
missing, Varsity had the ball in scor-
ing position most of the time. Rem-
ington tallied a clean shot in the
first ten minutes of scrimmage and
five mintites. before the whistle blew,
Taggart at right wing tied the scores
at 2-all.
Although Kent is a regular in the
back field, she adequately filled
Longacre’s- position at inner and her
defense tactics were an advantage in
keeping the ball near the Swarthmore
cage. Although Taggart is not as
fast as Stevenson, she played a
steady and effective game. She
did not carry the ball so far down
‘field and as a result her passes were
quicker and more accurate. Daniel’s
playing has been steadily improving
all season and she played an excel-
lent game at Kent’s regular position
at half.
Collier, Rothermel and Bishop were
an impenetrable barrier and rarely
allowed the Swarthmore forwards to
pass the fifty yard line. Gill proved
to be an able substitute for Jack-
son. The final outcome of the game
was due, to a great extent, to her co-
‘ous lines from the. speech of a White-
Folk Songs Are True
Base of Musical Art
National Music Can Only
sult From Knowledge of
) Country’s Tradition
NO PERFECT ORIGINALITY
Re-
‘Beginning the fourth lecture of his
series last Wednesday, Dr. Vaughan
Williams announced that, from a con-
sideration of folk-song itself, he
would now turn his a
its influence on us—on the ordinary
musical people of today. 4
Folk song, said Dr. William
ing spontaneous and unpre
is of necessity sincere, and so:
own emotions supplies a much-needed
test; “artistic deception is eae of the
subtlest of vices.” Moreove
song has withstood the scrutiny of
time,-and is worthy; surely, to be the
foundation of our musical art, Again,
an artist cannot always give immedi-
ate form to his creative thoughts; his
mind must unconsciously @est on
something familiar to his nature. And
what more suitable than the music
natural to his race? Sir Hubert Par-
ry says that all things which mark
the folk-song of the race also betoken
its other qualities.
There has been considerable oppo-
sition to the “folk-song theory for
composers,” but Dr. Williams believes
that the critics are fighting wind-mills. !
Building up a national style on the|
basis of folk-song involves far more
than the introduction of a few folk-
tunes, or a touch of loca] color, as
the failure of many composers has
proved. Moreover, Beethoven does not
become a Russian on the strength of
the Rasoumowsky quartets. A nation-
al schwol must. be built. upon_raw ma-
terial, and nfust know its own tra-
ditional music. Nor are Tschaikow-
ski- and Smetana exceptions. Al-
though they may not have studied
them expressly, the national tunes of |
Russia were “in the air.” Even Elgar,
who admittedly knows and cares lit-
tle about English folk-song, shows
clearly in the Enigma Variations and
in parts of Gerontius the influence of
that direction pointed out by Cecil!
Sharpe’s revival of folk-music in Eng-|
land, through which a musical idiom |
was found in its simplest form. |
“That,” said Dr. Williams, “was what
we were waiting for;’ stores of Eng-
lish melody were opened, which gave
one /the same sense of familiarity
that a masterpiece does. In those
works which lack this quality of fa-
miliarity, Elgar seems to elong less
to the English.
The next. question that confronts;
us is that of a nationalistic com-
poser’s originality. How, in The
Dark Lady of the Sonnets, does Shaw
impune the originality of Shakes-
peare by showing him, note-book in
hand, culling some of his most fam-
hall sentry? Again, does the fact
that his poetry is founded on the pop-
ular ballads read him by his wife cast
a shadow on the genius.of Burns? |
If, as Emefson s#ys, “the most orig-
inal genius is the most indebted man,”
there is ho reason why we should not
be indebted to the fountain-head from
which all our art. originally sprang.
This indebtedness is well recogniz-

sians—by all but the English, who

Varsity Players’ Club
Presents Saint’s Day
Original Play by Tom Prideaux
Has Satire as -
Theme
S.-_JONES——-PLAYS~-LEAD
The performance én November 17
of Saint’s Day, the Varsity Players’
new one-act play, will be practically
a first-night. This expose of a pecu-
liarly medieval racket ‘done in good
Chicago style was written and first
produced at the Baker Workshop in
New Haven by Tom Prideaux, a
young dramatist of considerable, prom-
ise. Since the original presentation,
he has partially rewritten it for per-
formance at Bryn Mawr.
Although the scene is laid in the
Dark Ages when: saints were accept-
ed as saints,-the dialogue and spirit
of the play are incongrously modern.
The saint-hero, Sallie Jones, is a pl-
ous but engaging fraud;-whose bones,
coveted as relics, serve as the crux
of the plot. His mistress is Carrie
Schwab, who, during the saint’s per-
formances serves as the poor woman
brought in from the streets and mi-
raculously “cured.” - The villains of
ihe piece are Saint Carlo’s business
manager, Haviland Nelson, and his
press agent, J. E. Hannan, who is a
very bad man. Maria Coxe and O.
Jarrett furnish local color as a ped-
dler and servant, respectively.
Leta Clews is directing the pro-
duction; Maria Coxe will serve as
stage manager, and Diana Tate-
Smith will be in charge of lighting.
The Varsity Players are delighted
to have secured an unpublished play
for production. The clever dialogue
und original plot of Saint’s Day
should make it a great success.
Harpsichord is Exhibited
at Informal Song Meeting
Three years ago, and for no ade-
quate reason as far as the music-
lovers were concerned, the evenings of
informal singing and piano at Wynd-
ham were given up. But last Mon-
day night not only saw the proverb-
ial pillows scattered on the floor in
the music room at Goodhart, but also
an “old-new” instrument in a very
handsome walhut case. First, how-
ever, we had to get into the swing
of the old evenings, so with Mr.
Alwyne at the piano 4nd Mr.
Willoughby at the organ, not only
to safe-guard but inspire“our keep-
ing on the tune, we started with a
Bach chorale, “Wake, Awake, for
Night Is Flying.” The start was
rather feeble and Dr. Williants would
have none of it. By the time we had
finished the second chorale, “Lord
Christ, Reveal Thy Holy Face,” he
had made sing in groups, first those
who knew it and then those who had
never heard it. By dint of begging
us not to “Hurry our quavers” he
drew from us a rather dignified ‘ren-
dition of this beautiful music. The
fun ended on a jolly note, the fa-
mous “Twankydillo” — Dr. Williams.

Cyrano. de Bergerac
is Lecture Subject
Clayton Hamilton Considers
_ Cyrano Greatest Play
in Literature
CREATED FOR .COQUELIN
Clayton Hamilton, who was Walter
Hampden’s roommate at school, and
who persuaded him to revive Cyrano
de Bergerac, “chatted’’ about Ros-
tand’s masterpiece, which he’ describ-
ed--as: “the most enchanting, exhila-
rating, thrilling and enthralling play
in the world.” Although in his ca-
pacity of dramatic critic Mr. Hamil-
ton has seen thousands of plays, Cy-
rano is his favorite. He has, in fact,
been present, at three hundred: per-
formances of it in thirty years.
Shakespeare’s Hamlet _is_an_extreme-
ly popular classic, but people go to
see it over and over again in order
to compare the performances of dif-
ferent. actors. Walter Hampden
alone, however, has played Cyrano
five hundred and sixty-five times in
New York, and each time after the
second dct someone in. the audience
has come out and bought tickets for
a: future performance. This is be-
cause Cyrano de Bergerac is the only
play which is the “Quintessence of all
the plays of all the world, and is what
all plays have wanted to be and fail-
cd to be since the dawning of Greek
tragedy.”
Cyrano de Bergeruc” was first
launched on the stage in Paris by a
young poet of twenty-nine on the
28th-of December, 1897. It was im-
mediately acclaimed “the thrill of the
theatre,” and people rushed to Paris
from all over Europe to see it. The
generation which witnessed its open-
ing had éonsidered that the age of
miracles was past and-that no more
great works of art would be produc-
ed, but they united in proclaiming
Cyrano the greatest achievement of
their lifetime. Hamilton was just
seventeen at this time (which age,
incidently, he considers as the best
age for the first reading of Rostand’s
play), and!he had been asking him-
self why he happened to be living _in
the United States in the administra-
tion of McKinley, instead of in Ath-
ens during the Golden Age of Peri-
cles, when it was possible to hear Soc-
rates “ask embarrassing questions.”
He realized, however, in December of
1897, that he had waited for centuries
in a pre-natal form in order that he
might be alive when Cyrano was writ-
ten. Even now he goes so far as
to date certain events -in his youth
‘as B. C.—“Before Cyrano.” The play
was so great that differences in race,
nationality, age, religion, or sex had
no effect on the universal admiration
which it received. It can today be ¢er-:
tain for its immortality, for even mov-
ing pictures morons are overwhelm-
ing in their praise.

_Disorder in the Dress
The general appearance on campus of the Bryn. Mawr undergradu-
ate has never been a thing of beauty nor a joy forever.
One of the
few blots onan otherwise beautiful landscape has; from~time—im-
memorial, been the student body. It is a matter of common knowledge
that students are considered by the world at large to be slightly strange
and eccentric as to dress, and the college seems to have all bent its
efforts in the direction of strengthening this impression, feeling, we
suppose, that eccentricity suggests
genius. We feel that the lack of
general grooming on the campus of Bryn Mawr is neither ai expression
of genius nor an indication of type, but an exhibition of laziness and
carelessness.
We are not advocating that students deck themselves
out in gold braid and brocade, but we feel that hems might be sewn in
dresses, clothes might be sent to the cleaners, buttons might be sewn on
and hair might be brushed without any serious reflections being cast
on the Bryn Mawr intellect.
Visitors to the campus are confronted on
all sides by intellectuals with fingernails suffering from intimate con-
tact with the good earth, hair resembling that of an East Indian native
after a hard day in the rice fields, and clothes that would have brought
shame down upon a Belgian refugee.
Going around in shabby clothes
has become a fashion with some people, and a line of least. resistance
with a great many others, and in neither case is it justified. As a
whole the students are a walking disgra¢e to the ¢outurier and the hair-
‘dresser: We wish to advocate only a few policies; that students either
wear no stockings at all or wear stockings that are not in the process
of rapid disintegration ;
that they remember the prominent position
of fingernails and make some attempt to prepare them for the public
eye; that students realize that there comes a time in the life of every
dress when its place is at the cleaners;
eollege is not a shambles, but a dignified institution.
‘and that they remember that
We do not drop
all vestiges of civilization from us as we step on the campus, and we
do not change inwardly from civilized human, beings into raving bar-
barians, so why should: we struggle to perform such an outward change?
If one makes a rapid survey
of the relative appearance of the
four classes one discovers that the freshmen are far more respectable
than their sister classes,
offenders.
while the seniors are by far the worst
This should serve to demonstrate the melancholy fact that
shabbiness and general lack of order in dress is an adopted pose.
Bryn Mawr students in their strange garb have brought forth a great
many astonished comments from outsiders, and have led .to the estab-
lishment of the idea that if one goes to Bryn Mawr one is a sartorial
atrocity.
as the inmates of an orphan asylum or a house of correction’.
At meals and classes the students look like nothing so much
The pres-
ent Bryn Mawr attitude toward dress reveals only an appalling ignor-
ance of the fitness of things, and a mistaken conception concerning the
qualities of genius. We can and must make an attempt-to improve the
general appearance of the student body.
Instead of dressing for effect
in rags, we should dress for lack of it in decent sackcloth if we have
nothing else.
At least. let us antedate the present tradition calling for
a total disregard “of all- amenities of dress and grooming.
1The comparison is not completely accurate, and inmates of the
institutions mentioned are scrubbed scrupulously several times a day. ,

Miss Park Asks for
Unemployment Relief
Students Must Recognize Criti-
cal Situation and Are
Able to Help
VOTES FOR SOCIALIST
The conditions of distress in Phil-
adelphia and its vicinity, and the
practical action which. the college
should take in contributing toward
relief, were discussed by President
Park in Chapel November 8.
This year, she asserted, students
are more aware of the economic situ-
ation than before; no student has
been unaffected. Many have had to
borrow to pay for the cost of their
education, but, even so, the very fact
that they are in college classes them
with those who must aid others.
In the Philadelphia district, relief
_is being administered in a different,
and probably better way than last
year; instead of the organizations in-
cluded in the United Campaign pro-
viding every form of relief, public
funds «will be available -These, how-
ever, are inelastic and can be used
only-for food; a-campaign_is now un-
der way to raise five million dollars for
other forms of assistance and an ad-
ditional million is sought to supple-
ment the public food funds, Although
some worthy organizations will not
profit by this campaign, there is not
a single organization included which
does not deserve support; the money
they receive will be spent with the
care of desperation.
Speaking on: the basis of persutial
knowledge as a member of the Mont-
gomery County Board of _Unemploy-
ment Relief, Miss Park was able to
state that the relief. agencies can
provide but a minimum of assist-
ance for the needy. Only eighteen
cents a day is allotted to each individ-
ual for food, and nothing is allowed
for fuel,’clothing, or rent. Sickness,
physical and mental handicaps, and
child welfare, now demanding even
more attention.than in, normal tinies,
are inadequately dealt with. More-
over, thé despair of mind and starva-
tion of body engendered by the pres-
ent crisis will leave an enduring prob-
lem which must be faced by the com-
ing generation.
Last year Bryn Mawr made a mag-
nificent contribution to the work .of
relief. The students contributed
through the Graduate Club and the
Undergraduate Association; the fac-
ulty through the community; the em-
ployees through the Director of Halls.
This year, everything will be contrib-
uted through. the college. The stu-
dents can, without any appeal but the
bare statement of facts, realize the
necessity for action and decide for
themselves how they will contribute.
At the conclusion of her talk, Miss
Park announced her decision to vote
for Norman Thomas. Neither the Re-
publican nor Democratic parties, she
said, seem to realize that the acute-
ness of the present situation demands
new economic ‘policies. It is possible
that a large vote for the party at-
tempting to provide these will compel
the older parties to modify their out-
worn ideas.
From the ALABAMIAN comes. the
report: “A Colgate professor of psy-
chology required his students to sleep
in class so that he could determine
the most effective pitch for an alarm
clock.” There’s nothing like a college
education.—(NSFA.)
Cyrano de Bergerac
is Lecture Subject
(Continued from Page One)
Cyrano de Bergerac was fashioned
to: fit certain stage conditions. Co-
quelin, who was in 1897 France’s Jeaa-
ing comedian, and an actor of extra-
ordinary range and tersatility, desir-
ed to carry French culture all over
world by means of a play which would
include all, plays and which would
enable him to display the very limits
of his talent. Coquelin sent for Ros-
tand, who had done some writing for
Sarah Bernhardt, and spoke to him
in the following manner: “I want
you to write a play for me which will
contain the entire. range of human
emotions, shall pass . from farce
through satirical comedy, romance,
and melodrama to tragedy, and shall
have self-sacrifice, the noblest of all
human actions, for its general theme.
As I am a famous comedian, it should
sparkle with wit and repartee. As
I have a good voice it may have lyri-
cal passages. Because I am a skillful
swordsman, a duel must be included
in it. Moreover, a heroic death,
which will teach others the proper
way to die, should be presented in the
denouement. This is to be a univer-
sal play.”
It was Rostand who found the act-
ual Cyrano, who had lived in the time
of Moliere, as a poet, a humorist, a
satirist of bitter tongue, and as a
deadly swordsman, with a monstrous-
ly big nose, and incorporated him into
his play. Rostand took a year to
write his tender and- wistful epoch-
making story of the man with a no-
ble and poetic soul, but an ugly ex-
terior. He it was who, in Mr. Ham:
ilton’s opinon,s achieved the play
which is the greatest of all plays, by
fulfilling | Coquelin’s
nothing be left out.
request that
Before one can-understand. the-rea-|—-
son for Cyrano’s continued pdpular-
ity, one must answer the question of
why one goes to the theatre. The
answer is simple enough: to enjoy
oneself; to enjoy one’s own emotions
and ideas, which have been aroused
by those of the actor. “A play only
has a real existence when it pours it-
self over the footlights and comes alive
in the audiénce’s mind.”’ The amount of
popularity which a play may attain
is measured by the degree to which
the average audience desires to be
identified with the leading actor. Mr.
Hamilton considers “Othello” one of
the world’s greatest plays, but not
one of the most popular, because no
one desires to strangle his wife from
jealous suspicions and then find that
he has been horribly mistaken. ‘“Mac-
beth”, is more popular, perhaps be-
cause everyone is potentially a mur-
derer, and after the performance goes
home refreshed by his mental murder
which has been followed by a mental
atonement and suffering. However,
it would be too much to.see it every
night.
It is different with Cyrano de Ber-
gerac. One can easily identify him-
self with Cyrano and do for the first
time whatever he has always wanted
to do in life and never had the cour-
age to do. Any normal person delights
‘in being an honest friend, a gallant
lover, and a. heroic fighter. Psycholo-
gists consider that the great success
of Cyrano is due to what they de-
seribe as “wish-fulfillmént,” namely,
the “attainment of all the uncon-
scious desires which-have haunted us
from the dawning of our soul.”

Second Varsity Defeats
Manheim Team Easily, 2-0
The* Second Varisity defeated the
team from. Manheim. by a 2-0 score
in’ a decidedly one-sided game. As
Manheim turned up with only eight
members, Harrington went in as their
right wing, while Whitney did: dou-
ble duty at left half and left full.
Since most of the play centered about
the Manheim goal, Gill had an “easy”
time as goalie. Whitney played the
best game of the day, filling her two
positions.so well that she was a con-
stant worry to both the Bryn Mawr
backs, as well as the forwards. - Al-
though Bryn Mawr had the ball most
of the time, the strength of Manheim
-seemed centered in*their’ backfield,
which held the Second Varsity to only
two, goals.
The line-up was as follows:

@ur arrival in Moscow introduced
us abruptly to the kind of service that
“Intourist” supplied. A young uni-
versity student meet us at the station
and has been with us ever since as
our guide, interpreter, secretary and
companion. He escorted us to our car,
which was one of the fleet of 1932
Lincolns which “Intourist” puts at the
disposal of its guests. We wére then
taken to The Metropole Hotel, where
simple, comfortable rooms awaited us
and, after a hot bath and a hearty
breakfast, we started out on the first
of our many tours of inspection.
Moscow today presents a picture of
many startling contrasts. On the one
hand one sees the Kremlin with its
fortress-like walls, its mixture of
its palaces, and its
churches. The turnip-shaped towers,
and the garrish use of gold and bril-
liant colors; give a sense of opulence
and brutal romanticism inseparable
from the cruelties of the Tzarist re-
gimes. Right below and under the
shadow of its crenalated walls stands
“the mausoleum of Lenin—a severe,
modern edifice of black and red mar-
ble, and this in turn overlooks with
quiet serenity the historic Red Square.
The streets are covered with people
who dodge nervously between droshka
and Lincoln in order to catch the
much over-crowded street car. One
rumbles over cobblestones and glides
over cement, Everywhere one sees
signs of renovation, and construction.
On all sides the new and modern sup-
plants, and, by its efficiency, carica-
tures cruelly, the old and traditional.
As in the United States, there are
many people here who, no matter un-
der what economic system they are
working, have but one aim in .mind—
to get by. However, there is a group
here which sharply. contrasts with
this indifferent one. This’ group is
decidedly in-the majority and is grad-
ually tiring out all the drones from
the hive. It includes those pioneers
who have worked for many frustrated
years in order that this experiment
might be given & chance. It includes
almost entirely the youth which has
grown up under ‘this regime and
through its education sees the bene-
fits, possibilities, and responsibilities
which such an/ experiment involves.
It is this group that symbolizes the
Awakened Russa. Fully conscious of
their present inefficiencies and blun-
derings, mindful of the discomforts
and inadequacies of their present ex-
istence, they push on cheerfully, help-
ed by an almost blind faith that all
will, and must, turn for the better.
Through them there exists now in
these trying years an atmosphere of
the good fellowship that one feels on
a camping trip when all concerned
Each
new difficulty met and conquered gives
an added zest to the enterprise.
For any of us who have labored un-
der the illusion of the melancholie
Weltschmerz of the Russians, their
cheerfulness and good nature comes
as a most welcome’ surprise. This is
even expressed in their devil-may-
care attitude towards their personal
appearances. The costumes one sees
on the “4treets and in the offices are
a delightful composite, reminding one
of impromptu charade parties. It is
extraordinary with, what swank a
black shirt, a pair of rough.and torn
trousers, an old pair of shoes, a cap
over one eye, and a smile, can be
worn. (I will admit this rough charm
is carried off better by the male sex
than by the female. In the latter one
misses somewhat the qualities of fem-
inine allure.) Similarly the furnish-
ings and equipment of home and of-
fice have a delightful make-shift

charm about ‘them. In old and rath-
er elegant rooms partitions have been
thrown up and a few desks and tele-
phones inserted and there business is
carried on unmindful of the incon-
sistencies of dress, surroundings, and
paraphernalia involved. Typewriters
are almost unheard of and, in place-
of adding machines, counting: beads
are to-be seen everywhere. The dis-
tinctions between Mr., Mrs., and
Miss have been discarded and every-
one has the title of “Comrade.” That
title is truly consistent with the gen-
eral morale and is not in the least an
affectation, as-one might expect.
The- future of the U...8. 8; B.;
whether as a state socialism or as
an eventual communism, hangs on the
ability of the processes of Education
to stamp out the ignorance and frus-
tration which have been inherited
from the Tszarist Regime. The ma-
terial upon which ‘these processes
must work, is as raw and unclaimed
as the many natural resources still
hidden within the vast areas of this
same state. Whether or not any edu-
cational system is strong enough to’
overcome natural tendencies towards
laziness, selfishness, and shirking of
responsibilities, inherent in the hu-
,man race, is a question which this
government seeks to answer. It is
their—belief-that it-can be done but,
fully conscious of the precariousness
of the situation, they have put their
best minds to work on the handling
of all educational matters.
I have visiged many of the schools,
not only fo# children, but also for
adults. Every child has as its first
seven years of education a compre-
hensive polytechnical training invol-
ving not only courses in Mathemat-
ics (up to trigonometry), Languages
(Russian, German, and local dialect,
if any), Literature (mainly Russian),
Geography, Physics, Chemistry, Biol-
ogy, Physical Culture, Drawing, and
a heavy emphasis on Political Sci-
ence—but also according to the loca-
tion of the schéol (for each school is
connected with a given industry),
courses in Carpentry, Lathe . Work
(wood and metal), Electro-Magnetic,
and all the other courses necessary
for the training in that particular in-
dustry. These seven years are com-
pulsory to every child. Thereafter
he has the choice of going to work,
or going on for three more years,
either in that school or another, do-
ing work preparatory to specialized
work within the industry. Then he
again has the choice of going to work,
or going for three years more to a
“Technicum” for advanced training
plus five years required practical work: |.
in the industry, or of going directly
to the University. Those going to
Technicum can go on to University
after their eight years are over, but
that-is rarely done.
For Adults, courses are given at
night to help them pass the literacy
requirements which are compulsory
up to fifty-five years of age. They
receive courses in Arithmetic, Russian
(Reading and-Writing) and. Political
Science. There are, of course, many
courses for adults who want techni-
cal help in their trade. These are
organized on the demand of those
who, though advanced in.years, do
not want to be pushed aside by the
oncoming educated youth. .
Besides all the education that the
schools supply there co-exists a ser-
ies of groups which work independ-
ently to help in the “distribution” of
those qualities necessary to good citi-
zenship. The lower grades of these
groups might perhaps be compared to
our. boy—and girl—scout organiza-
tions.. Up to the age of eight the
group is called “The Octobers,” as
they all were born since the October
Revolution. From the. ages of. eight
to sixteen the group is called “The
Pioneers.” Their members have the
duty of leading the Octobers and,
above all, excelling and helping others
to excel in everything they do. As
Pioneers they are permitted to attend
the meetings of their superior group
—“The Young: Communist League”
—which, in turn, they may join af-
ter they have passed the requirements
of the leaders of that particular nu-
cleus, the nucleus itself, and the com-
mittee of the district nucleus. They
remain members of The Young Com-
munist League up to the age of twen-
ty-three, when they can become mem-
bers of The Communist Party, after
passing similar examinations given by
the latter group. Thus each group
sends down to the, group below it peo-
ple who, in turn, help in its .organiza-
tion and leadership. Each group in
each district has a club house (except
for The October, who are of course
just kindergarten age), and in these
club houses there are meeting halls,
gymnasiums, playgrounds and work
shops (in which the work of the group
is placed on‘ sale). Excursions into
the country and studies in Natural
History and ‘similar excursions to
Museums, factories, and: to other in-
stitutions are part of the curriculum.
The Pioneers organize clubs within
their club houses for children of the
same age who are not yet Pioneers,
and they have the duties of teaching
and helping these charges.’ So every-
body not only studies for himself, but
helps others by working with them
and teaching them.
Everything which we would class as
“entertainment” is organized with
tremendous care and with an eye as
to how it can be of most use to the

Chapel Speaker Declares
Inductive Method Wrong
At Sunday Night Chapel, Novem-
ber 13, the Rev. Henry P. Van Dusen,
Dean of Students at Union Theological
Seminary, -delivered the address.
That the inductive method approaches
the problem of religion” from thé
wrong ehd was the burden of his ser-
mon, and the speech of Paul to the
Athenians on Mars Hill his illustra-
tion of the failure of this method.
He (Paul) was gracious, liberal, and
complimentary, recognizing their hon-
esty, sincerity, and wistfulness. His
approach, however, was wrong, for
he appealed to their minds, not their
sense of. the primary reality. Paul
apparently recognized his failure, as
he left Athens immediately, never
returned, and had no, contact with it
in the future: In hig next sermon
at Corinth, he stressed'the fact that
faith should not rely on the wisdom
of mén, but upon facts.
If the ancient world had a parallel
to the modern university campus, it
would be: found on Mars Hill where
the same intellectually critical atti-
tude prevailed as on the campus of
today. Paul’s speech to the Athen-
ians finds’ favor with us for that
‘very tolerance and reasoning which
caused him to fail in his appeal; for
the fact remains that he was not can-
did in his approach to these people,
who were interested in argument
about religion, but not in religion it-
self. His attempt to extend their
“Unknown. God”: to include his own
God was only an astute preaching
device-and deserved to fail, as it did.
If a living God is to become real
to us, it will not be as the Q. E. D:
at the end of a long argument, but
because of a sense of His reality. As
Pascal said, “‘We would not seek Him
if-we had not already found Him.”
God is prior to argument itself, so
the task of mind in religion becomes
not the search for obscure reasons,
but a better understanding of what
is already there. The steps to a
sense of the validity of God begin
with a dim _ but.sure acquaintance.
with Him, then doubt as to this ac-
quaintance, then a clarification of
doubt, as the last process before the
final knowledge. God must come as
a fundamental reality, not as a syn-
thesized product of reasoning, as has
been illustrated in all ages by. great
religious figures who have found God,
not through inquiry, but through
receptivity. re

The folks are at home—your time is free— it’s just
the time for a family “get-together.”
Best of all, at 8:30 P. M. low Night Rates go into

Varsity Overwhelms
Rosemont ‘Team, 4—0
Bryn Mawr Pushes Offense;
Prospects for Varsity Are
___ Much Brighter
REMINGTON, KENT SCORE
Sweeping down the field with its
pink-tuniced opponents in wild pur-
suit, Varsity overwhelmed Rosemont
by the score of 4-0. Bryn Mawr
pushed the offense throughout the
first. half and, as a result, the play
was centered about the Rosemont goal.
In the first ‘few minutes of play,
Remington, on a quick pass from Col-
lier, sent the ball into the cage. Soon
afterwards, Kent, dribbling the ball
down the field from the fifty-yard
line, sent the ball crashing ‘past the
goalie for a 2-0 lead. Remington
scored another goal when she caught
a rebound from the cage and tallied
a goal on a ‘chip shot. Kent again
rushed the ball into the goal and the
whistle blew for the half.
In the ‘second half the play .see-
sawed back and forth, neither team
scoring.
wing, played a fast clever game and
was kept from making a goal by the
timely interference: of one of the
backs. When the ball did manage to
get within scoring distance, the re-
doubtable Jackson “punted” it to the
inner and up the field it went. The
Varsity forwards far surpassed them-
selves. They swept up the field as
a unit and out-maneuvered their op-
ponents with quick dodges and passes.
Our hope soared, and the prospects
for the Bryn Mawr team seemed
bright.

workers, not only as a relaxation, but
also through its form and content, as
a model on which they can base their |
thoughts and ideas. One would prob-
ably think that a movie built along
these lines might be pretty. awful.
So it might!—but I have been many
times to the movies and, although
they dealt with’ themes such as anti-
‘war, organization of .contractors in!
the building of the big Dnieper Dam,
the problem of the homeless: children,
etc., they were so cleverly filmed and
the scenarios were so expert that I
enjoyed them more than any of the
many films that I have seen in the
past year in the United States. The
only thing we have to compare them
to are such films as “The Public En-
emy,” in which gangster life is shown
off and up. . Of course, there are
many films, plays, operas, and bal-
lets, that do not deal with the prob-
lems of the five-year plan, but even
they are handled from a distinctly
Soviet slant. By that I do not mean
that they are made into political prop-
aganda, but rather are executed in a
vital style compatible with Soviet
Ideology... It--is- quite an _extraordi-
nary sight to go to the old Opera
House and to witness there a magni-
ficent presentation of either a ballet
or an opera in front of an audience
seated in gilded loges and arm chairs,
dressed in everyday working clothes.
The Museums are similarly organ-
ized for the use of the public. The
Hermitage in Leningrad has had four
times the annual attendance it had
before: the’ Revolution. In each gal-
lery there are reading lists posted.
Guides are at the disposal of anybody
who applies. And the amazing thing
is that these conveniences are made
use of and more often than not by
out-of-town farmers or merchants,
and, above all, soldiers and sailors.
The directors of the Museum and his
assistants often give lectures by invi-
tation at factories. during the lunch
hour. In the Museum for Western
Art in Moscow I was much amused
by a list of questions posted in each
room. These were placed there to sug-
gest to the vistor what questions he
should be asking himself while study-
ing this particular artist’s work.- I
need hardly add that the pictures in
these collections are of supreme qual-
ity and themselves easily worth a
trip to the U. S. S. R.} even if the
economic questions do not interest one.
Neither Matisse, Gauguin, nor even
Picasso, can be quite completely un-
derstood without a trip here and to
the Rump Collection in Copenhagen.
With the completion of the first
five-year plan, the U. S. S. R. can
look back over a series of extraordi-
nary accomplishments, especially
when one considers the numerous and
stupendous obstacles which had to be
overcome. Just the mere fact that
everything had to be thought of in
terms of one hundred and fifty mil-
lion people, living in an area one-
sixth the, size of the entire globe,
including seventy-four distinct na-
tionalities, each with its own pecu-
liar dialect, and seven separate and
distinct languages, makes one admire,
at least, the courage necessary to
face such an experiment. When then
one realizes that in the past fifteen
years a state socialism has come into
being which has eliminated unem-
ployment, brought illiteracy down
from 65 per cent.. to 15 per cent.,
brought about equal rights for men
and women, and made it possible for
everybody to earn a decent (though
as yet, not luxurious) living — one
then must admit‘that an extraordi-
nary degree of success has already
been achieved. There are many more
facts than can. be added to the asset
list, but these are to me the out-
standing accomplishments. But per-
haps all these are of only secondary
importance to the astounding morale
that has been built up in this short
time. Ohe cannot say too much about
the enthusiasm, the cheerfulness, and
the desire of Russia to bring itself
up to and beyond the highest stand-
ards as yet achieved in the civilized
certainly the finest thing achieved by
the Union of the Soviet Socialist Re-
publics. :
Perhaps you may feel in reading
this that it all sounds too good to be
true. Of course, you are right. In
this rapid and thorough house-clean-
ing not everything has turned out
quité as expected. A country cannot
be trained overnight in the delicacies
of administéring a completely new
kind of government. The shortage of
men of real ability and thé lack of
capital have in many cases weakened |
the intended achievement. The youth |
is fast growing into its responsibili-
ties, however, and already forty per
cent. of the Collective Farms are
managed by men between the ages of
20 and 24. The’ flagrant inefficien-
cies, the blunderings, the thousand
delays, and annoying inadequacies,
are pretty trying to even the most
patient observer. But these are all
so Obviously childhood diseases that
one tends to be charitable.
Two weeks ago I arrived here in’
Soviet Russia. It is difficult for me |
to balance for you the innumerable
vital impressions that I have receiv-
ed here in this brief period of time.
I had always believed that Russia
represented something to be feared.
If it won I, and all the traditions I
was accustomed to, were doomed. I
believed . that here the _ individual
would be forced to lose his identity
in the masses; he would only be pay-
ed a salary equal to that of his poor-
est-fellow-workman; he would havé
to forget all-family. ties; he would
live in filth and squalor with—poor
food and worse clothing; in short; he
would become just a mechanical cog |
in the big machinery of government}
with no possibility for personality or |
individuality.
If then ‘these accounts seem over-
glowing, do not condemn them as
propaganda, but realize how vitally
they contrast with the general run of
things in.our country. One looks de-
spairingly at home for a similar mo-
rale which might make of our coun-
try an efficient democracy. It is the
problem of our. educational forces to
shake off the belief in the sufficiency
of “getting :by” and to substitute
somehow a belief in the richness and
necessity of a truly creative life,—a
life creative not only for the individ-
ual but for society as a whole. In
that sense I see in Russia today, not
a force to be feared, but rather one
to be welcomed in the fight against
personal and national selfishness, and
—a force pioneering in the execution
of, what we claim as our belief,—
“Equal Possibilities For All.”
Folk Songs Are True
Base of Musical Art
(Continued from Page One)
other countries, refuse to acknowledge
it about themselves; while the Rus-
sians speak of folk-song as ‘integra-
tion’ —the composer must love the
tunes of his country and they must
become an integral part of himself—
the English talk only of ‘synthetic
folk-song.’
The protest against folk-song, how-
ever, has come largely from the trade;
the musical practitioner is annoyed
at the success of those who have not
studied so laboriously as he.
Originality, continued Dr. Williams,
is not mere novelty. Fifty years ago,
when Mendelssohnian oratorios were
highly fashionable, Michael Costa
boasted of writing his own chorale
tunes, only to find that Mendelssohn
himself had “cribbed.” Hadyn, too,
has been accused. of laziness, of not
taking the trouble to invent his own
tunes. No music, however, can grow
out of nothing. The question is, not}
whether music is novel, but whether
it is vital. What, after all, is origi-
nality? The young genius could not
rebel unless there were tradition
against which to hurl himself. The
artist selects rather than creates; he
can infuse a common thought with‘
a unique radiance. It has been said
of Beethoven that even his chromatic
scales sounded different,
The opening of the prelude to Tris-
tan und Isolde is strongly reminiscent
of Mozart in the C-major quartet.
With the earlier composer, however,
it was merely a harmonic expression;
amourousness Mozart expressed by
“La ci darem.” Again, Debussy did
not invent the whole-tone scale. John
Stanley, who lived in the 18th cen-
tury, was the experimenter. What
Debussy did was to see its emotional
implications — its inevitability. And
the genuine Debussy is easily discern-
ible from his young imitators; what
to him was a truth is to them but a}.
truism. aes
Monteverde invented the operatic
declamation of the Greeks. And what
seemingly more original than 7'he An-
cient Mariner, copied from Percy’s
Reliques? Liszt was at first consid-
ered new, while Brahms was thought
to be pedantic and obscure.
That folk-song should seem inevi-
table is the chief requisite for its use.
There is too much stress today on
personality and originality in art.
In all ages, the great masters of
music have used folk-song material
when they so wished. Bach drew on
traditional chorale melodies for three-
quarters of his entire work. The
mediaeval’ composers, with their use
of secular tunes, showed their con-
viction that vital music Has a popular
element. With Bach. also, in the
“Cum Sancto Spiritu” of the Mass,
with Beethoven in his C-major Sym-
phony, and with Wagner, vulgarity
meant only an excess of vitality.
In Elizabethan times, perhaps the
virginal composers who used songs
they heard on the streets of London
were consciously instituting a revival
of folk-song because their country-
men were laying too much emphasis
on the music from overseas. In our
day, as well as theirs, is not synthesis
preferable to the imitation of foreign
importations? Since every student be-
gins by imitating—early Beethoven is
late Haydn—he may as_well write
“synthetic folk-song” as “synthetic
Strauss.” :
In the classical period, the influ-
ence of folk-song is not noticeable be-
cause of its very obviousness. Folks-
lieder are just like the simple tunes
of Beethoven and Schubert, or rather,
the tunes of these composers are folks-
lieder. The “grand manner” means
the--Teutonic manner. It is as nar-
rowly national as that of Grieg or
Moussorgsky. We must except Haydn,
however. Only superficially is he like
his fellow-composers of the classical
period; his irregular rhythms and
curious intervals must be accounted
for, and Sir William Hadow speaks:
of him as a Croatian composer. It is
interesting to note that it is in his
best work that. Haydn’s Slavic ances-
try is most obvious.
In the slow movement of Haydn’s
E Flat Symphony, admirably render- _.
ed by Mr, Alwyne, who also gave us
the pleasure of hearing Byrd’s Vari-
ations on Selinger’s Round and Car-
men’s Whistle, two pieces for the vir-
ginal, we have an adaptation of
known Croatian folk-tunes,
In the 18th century, said Dr. Wil-
liams, a Scottish publisher asked Beet-
hoven to arrange some melodies, with
the result that they came out more
German than: Scotch... Brahms wae
more successful, for the folk-songs he
arranged were German in the first
place. The difference between him
and a man of far lesser genius, Fried-
lander, is seen with amazing clarity
in their arrangements of “Du mein
einzig licht,” both of which were sung
by the choir. Friedlander’s is quite
bald, the mere harmonisation of a
tune. Brahms’ is not only rich, but
is supplied with an extra cadence as
commentary.
In closing, Dr. Williams quoted the
words of William Hadow which, he
said, summed up everything that he
himself felt on the subject of folk-
song and its benificent influence on
the composer of today.

Harpsichord is Exhibited
at Informal Song Meeting
«Continued from
doubtful if any realized the intri-
cate facilities of the instrument for
tone-shading and color. There are
two key-boards, four sets of strings,
and eight pedals. By using different
combinations of sets of strings, a
varied number of tone-colorings “have
been .made possible. The “lute”
pedal, for instance, gave Purcell’s
“Minuet” (which was played on the
upper key-board) the thin, though
opaque quality of a bagpipe, while
another pedal gave certain, passages
in Bach a rare transparency of tone-
structure. Still another gave ‘the
instrument a fuzzy, thin sonority; an-
other an entirely different type sound,
rounder and deeper.
During Bach’s Ist Prelude, from
the “Well Tempered Clavier,” it was
noticeable that the upper key-board,
which Dr. Schuman played with ‘his
. left hand, was subdued by a certain
pedal which affected the lower key-
board only to brighten its tone.- In
the same way, harmonic background
and melodic foreground are distin-
guished; not by the artist’s touch as
on the piano, but by the chosen com-
bination of sets of strings.
Each note in the harpsichord is
produced by one string instead of
three tuned to the same pitch as in
the piano, and the tone is much
purer. It is a peculiarly delicate,
almost brittle tone; the notes do not
seem to melt together at all, but re-
tain—each one—their almost crystal-
line identity.
There is comparatively little sus-

Sherlock Holmes Reviewed
Sherlock Holmes, now playing at
the Fax Theatre in Philadelphia, and
at Roxy’s in New York, is by far the
best picture we have yet seen of the
Baker Street saga. Based on the stage
play, this version deals with the last
stand of that fiend among villains,
that superman of crime, Professor
Moriarity. Only for a minute, at the
very beginning of the film, are we al-
lowed to sit back in our chairs; Mori-
arty, at last a pin-cushion for evi-
dence, is sentenced to hang by the
neck until he is dead. But with lit-
tle hope of mercy even from God,
the Professor calmly announces that
the prosecutor, that Kingore of Scot-.
land Yard, that Sherlock Holmes him-
self, will meet their Maker before
him. It is no surprise, then, when
by a means unknown apparently even
to the scenario-writers, the arch-
criminal escapes from prison. But,
deary me, his program does not con-
fine itself to mere revenge. With the
help of master-minds from criminal
circles the world-over, including Chi-
cago, he plans to make London quite
unbearable ‘for those saloon-keepers
who refuse to pay for “protection.”
Moreover, there is really serious busi-
ness to be done, such as building un-
derground tunnels into banks and kid-
naping ladies, one in particular, who
has the flattering though somewhat
dangerous distinction of being loved
by Sherlock Holmes. Personally, we
