Pageantry of May Day
Only Nine Days Away
Newspaper Photographers and
Movie Representatives
Spread Publicity
MANY FACULTY IN’CAST
Only nine more days till. Queen
Elizabeth again returns to Bryn
Mawr and the “playes and revels”
begin. Everywhere are signs of the
approaching festivities. Tall knights
in clanking armor parade across the
campus, .a corps of photographers ar-
rives daily, and the northern side of:
Laylor has long been shadowed by a
huge grandstand. The regular . aca-
demic routine continues uninterrupt-
ed, but along with it there is a bustle
of preparation for the 6th and. 7th
of May.
The pile of clippings which has ac-
cumulated in the Publication Office
would seem to indicate that thé whole
world knows this is Big May Day
year at Bryn Mawr. Mrs...Collins
.veports that the publicity has never
been more. successful. Five big movie
companies are sending representatives
to make sound recordings of the Fri-
day performance. Camouflaged vans
will be parked at the Deanery to hold
the apparatus. A leading Stanley-
- Warner official has promised that the
May Day newsreels will be run in all
Stanley houses the following week.
Four of the most important officials
in the movie industry expect to at-
tend the actual celebration, which
they consider the most interesting
event of its kind in the country. There
will also be spectators in the audience
from the English Folk Dancing Soci-
ety.
Although not many seats have been
sold for Friday, three-fourths of the
grandstand is already reserved for
Saturday. Undergraduates are urg-
ed to make their reservations now, as
additional grandstand seats will be

erected only in case the space now
available is all reserved at the end
of the week.
A great deal of interest’ has been
aroused among students in prepara-
tory schools. The highest singie sale,
seven hundreds dollars, was made .to
a preparatory school. At another, in
Philadelphia, Mrs. Collins obtained
permission to discuss May Day for
five minutes, if she would first lecture
on candidates for the presidential
election, in place of a speaker who
could not keep his engagement. The
bargain was accepted, and her speech
aroused a notable enthusiasm.
On the flower-covered float, which
Mrs. Collins promised earlier in the
year, will be ensconced Jean Francois

reach Bryn Mawr came through the
London Daily Mail.
“Taormina.—In H. Bowdoin’s Vil-

on ‘St. Patrick’s day in aid of the
funds of the Anglo-American Church.
It was arranged by Mr. Gilbert
Brown and the program was a select
one.
“Mr. Horace Alwynne, director of
music at Bryn Mawr College, who was
warmly welcomed by nearly 200 ‘peo-

1935 Freshman Show Music
Given Victrola Recording
(Specially Contributed By Burbara
Lewis.)
The music of the Freshman Show
of 1935 has at last been recorded;
it has found its place in the sun. On
Friday evening at nine o’clock we pre-
sented ourselves at. 501 Madison ave-
nut, entertaining an idle hope that
we might be peacefully admitted to
the Great Home of the Royal Broad-
casting Company. The ringing of
the night bell over a period of a
quarter of an hour at length bore
fruit in the appearance of an aged
night watchman, who, uttering a few
small curses, decided to admit us to
the sacred precincts — this, after a
good five minutes of scrutiny. Such
small measures as the colleg@~ may
take to insure themselves of our
whereabouts after dark (signing out
book, special permission, etc.) were
as nothing compared to the elaborate
precautions taken by the night watch-
man. It was with the greatest religf
that we noticed, as we signed in, the
names of the staunch members of the
Princeton Triangle Club Orchestra,
on the sheet above.
When we arrived the orchestra was
well under way rehearsing the Ani-
mal Song; the sons of old Nassau
were in shirt sleeves and tuning up
their tubas in careless abandon.
Frances Messimer and. Marjorie
Wood, the pride and hope of Bryn
Mawr in this enterprise, were caught
sight of through the smoky air, and
escorted to the microphone with such
gallantry -as will doubtless never be
duplicated. They then embarked on
a .highly commendable rendering of
the piece, now entitled Wrong Again.
The lyrics had been re-written, and
the line once sung as “Phoenix! Phoe-
nix! Phoenix!. Phoenix!” was sung
sotto voice, “You’ve got my heart—
please give it back.” (This is only

Trends Converge to
International Style’
Structural Necessities and Engi-
neering Plans Are
Important
AMERICA IS SCORNFUL
“The keynote of the International
Style,” said Philip Johnson in_ his
third lecture before the Modern Art
class Tuesday, April 19, “is summar-
ized in J. J. Roud’s remark that ‘Ev-
erything answers the why.’ In expla-
nation of this school it is therefore
necessary to emphasize the importance
of logicalness and functionalism.” The
movement might be said to have start-
ed with the re-integration of archi-
tecture by a few isolated individuals,
such as Schinkel and Richardson, af-
ter the decline of Baroque, but the
various constituent trends did not
converge to a single focus until 1931.
The International Style is clear and
pronounced, has a discipline of its
own and is largely dependent upon
engineering.
Impressionism and Neo-Plasticism
might be mentioned as elements in
the composition of the new style (in
addition to the Viennese School, the
"the-Neéw Tradition, all 20th Century
movements discussed in the last lec-
ture). Impressionism, 1919, was
short-lived, and represented a release
from all conventions, especially from
the restraints of the New Tradition.
The main principle -of Neo-Plasticism
is that of abstract intersecting planes
—of planes floating in space. It com-
pletely discounts the laws of gravity
in its extreme lightness and apparent
disregard for supports. From this
point of view it is the true herald
of the International Style.
Of the four important European
men of this school, Le Corbusier,
Walter Gropius, J. J. Roud and Mies
van der Rohe, the first,.a Swiss, has
been the best known modern archi-
tect since 1922. He considers a home
a machine in which to live and de-
signs no ornament which is not vital-
‘ly necessary’ for human~needs. He
| achieves his effects by the beauty of
one large plain surface of ordinary
re-inforced concrete against another.
Many of his houses are built on poles,
placed at regular intervals.

Bryn Mawr Defeats Beaver
in Season’s First Match
In the first tennis match of the sea- |
son, Bryn Mawr came out on top of a
4-1 score over Beaver College on Sat-
urday morning. A strong breeze and |
plenty of dust gave the players great |
difficulty. In addition to this, Haskell |
took the oral so that the number one |
players had to play last. This was|
hard on both Haskell and her oppon-'
ent, Parry, as they had to play again}
almost immediately in the doubles.
In the 2’s match, Hardenbergh, the}
captain. of the 1932 Bryn Mawr Var-|
sity team, played a steady game from |
and to the base line. Her forehand |
drives were strong and accurate. As}
usual, she never seemed to strain her- |
self, but was almost always on the|
spot.. Although she plays casually,
her game is hard and accurate. Ster-
ner, her opponent, seemed inclined to
overwork a bit.. Her bounding about
was spectacular, but in many cases
unnecessary. She made many nice
pick-ups, but lost to Hardenbergh by |
a score of 6-3, 4-6, 6-4.
Although Bowditch has a tong, flat |
and powerful service and drive, her|
game on the whole was wild. In the}
third match, she lost the first set be-
cduse Staples was steadier than she,
but she picked up to.lead_pretty—con-+
There was a lot of good backhand
driving on both sides. The score was

As all careful readers of this peri-
odical know already, Cornelia Otis
Skinner is to appear on May Day as
Queen Elizabeth, andgeven Queen Eliz-
abeth has to submit to costume fit-
tings; accordingly, one fine day last
week Miss Skinner was motored out
from Philadelphia, where she was ap-
pearing in her Wives of Henvy the
Eighth, and she, like the humblest
rustic of us all, submitted to the usual
stand-still-while-I-pin-you ordeal. We
would like to say that we had been
granted our interview ‘at that crucial
point, but such is not the case. We
caught her as she was escaping, unin-
terviewed and radiant, and. attached
ourselves firmly-to the car, while, as-
\sisted by two friends, alumnae of the
‘same class, she wracked
her brain
for anecdotes and what-not for us.
What Miss Skinner could not remem-
ber. about college as she left it, and
May Day, as it left her, the two oblig-
ing alumnae could.
Miss Skinner, it seems was not (like
us) athletic, but (unlike us) she tried
‘to be.
She was a member ef the sev-
‘enth. class hockey team—-there were
only seven—but .got little practice as
the team was too small to play and
hence met very seldom. Her one stel-
|lar- appearance was on the occasion
when by a mistake she arrived at
hockey practice and found
larious a success that even after the~
mistake was discovered, the authori-
| ties declined to replace her; she fin-
| ished the game, although it was some-
a strain. The only time she
cah remember hitting the ball it went
on to the next field, where another
team made a goal with it in the con-
fusion. Her one other athletic ap-
pearance was as a tennis player. At
this point she decided that her cos-
tume was too sober, and accordingly
brightened the regulation gym suit
with a bright bandana, and equally
bright floating scarf, and a pair of
long tortoise-shell earrings. She was
a success.
Her other memories of college activ-
ities. include her difficulties: in the
choir, where she sang--double bass.
'It seems that a hatpin was_ neces-
sary, and as Miss Skinner had no
hat-pin and never got one, she had
continual trouble with her mortar-
board, which on one occasion even
flew off her head and out a window
when she raised her head suddenly.

was one about May Day. Being a

the pageant, she and her friends were
constantly called upon to do little but
vital errands. One such was to bor.
row the car of a friend who lived
near the campus, and load all the
spears and pikes which were to be re-
turned, onto it, and set out toward
Philadelphia with them. All went
extremely well until the car got firm-
ly embedded in the traffic under the
viaduct at Market Street. Here they
were stopped for a time, and when they
did start up it was with a terriffic

In Favor of Rallying Round
At the present time the great concern of all those in charge of
May Day is the way the folk-dancing is progressing—or, rather, not
progressing. The average student’s interpretation of the English
folk-dance is something of a monstrosity at the moment, and only 10
days remain in which to remedy the situation. The folk-dancing and
the pageant are the major features of May Day, and it is on their
execution that the success of the festival depends. Because they em-
brace the entire college they are more difficult to perfect, but for the
same reason they must be perfected. Up until last week attendance
at general folk-dancing had only been required once a week, because
energy was being concentrated on the plays. From. now on folk-
dancing and the pageant are the first ‘considérations:
The success of the folk-dancing and of the pageant can only be
assured if every girl knows her part and performs it. Anyone not
thoroughly familiar with the proceedings will not only make a fool
of herself, but will also make a fool of the college. The authorities
are asking for co-operation. Give it to them The time has come
when everyone must lay*aside her personal interests and get behind
May Day. Whether or not we wanted to'‘have May Day is of no
importance. What is important is that we are having May Day and
that it must be a suceess, That theSe frequent rehearsals take valuable
time away from one’s work is true, but it is time well spent. If every-
one comes out and works to put May Day over, the authorities will
be better disposed towards our plea that something be done about
the work situation. Iowever, should. May Day bea failure through
lack of student co-operation, we should not deserve—and we e rtainly
should: not receive consideration as regards work. ‘Therefore,
for our own good we should attend atl rehearsals.
We also owe our co-operation to Bryn Mawr as a college. The
News has no desire to make a sentimental appeal to college spirit.
We only wish to point out that the reputation of the college as regards
May Day rests in our hands. The directors can do only so mueh; the
outcome of May Day rests ultimately with us. Tf May Day is a suceess
we have done our job; if it is a failure, so are we,’ With that in mind
every student should attend all folk-dancing and pageant rehearsals
regardless of the inconvenience. The rehearsals may be inconvenient,
but the failure of May Day would be even more so.
Change and Decay
The student body is only too conscious that there are other and
greater matters in a professor’ s life than the pr eparation of his daily
leetures. The.active scholar is of necessity engaged in research, and
in the direction of advanced or graduate work in his department; and
under this pressure it is not to be wondered at that some “teachers”
tend to negleet their teaching for-short._periods-and-fall_hack-on old
notes, which, although carefully prepared in their day, may by now
be noticeably out-of-date. The chances that time has tarnished the
value of these notes are greater in some departmhents:than in others.
The student is necessarily a trusting soul and an humble creature.
She cannot do her work as required without_assuming the soundness
of the majority of her professor's statements; hence, it seems to us
to follow that the professor has an obligation even to his undergradu-
ates to keep his lectures reasonably up-to-date and fresh.
Without claiming any definite knowledge of fhe possible explana-
tions, and with every desire to avoid unfair critieism, we can state
with the utmost assurance that there are those among our teachers
who are inclined to neglect their obligations in undergraduate lectures.
Our experience has been that such neglect shows to a pronounced
degree only in the more elementary courses—which may We an ex-
planation, but is.surely not a satisfactory excuse. ‘lo cité one perti-
nent example from our own experience’ In comparing notes with a
friend who was covering in a general survey course—a field in which
we were doing specialized work—we uncovered a departmental con-
_tradietion over a rather important question. Carrying the question
to a spécialist, we were shown proof that the statement in the more
advanced course was not only demonstrably true, but had been defi-
‘nitely accepted as such by the competent scholars in the field. The
only apparent explanation of such a situation was that the. evidence
. proving the point in question had been brought to light and -discussed
within the last five years—a glaring demonstration that the well-worn
notes in the survey course were at least five years old and had not
Much is said of .the student’s responsibility to her classes. We
would ‘be the last to demand that our mental guides know every pos-|. -
sible detail of every aspect of subjects on which they lecture; but is}
+ it tog inueh to ask that they, too, recognize a heavy obligation to their
'classes—an obligation. to be up- to-date? If they must use notes, can

Dear Mad Hatter,
We hereby submit a plan to dis-
solve the quota system. We believe
that the present plan has obvious im-
perfections, which we intend to cure,
if not kill. These imperfections reside
in many of the halls; and so our sys-
tem roughly treated is as follows:
The seniors should be given first
chance. There.is ample space for the
entire class. We suggest that they be
locked in the lib and be allowed to
subsist on the New York Times files.
The Juniors may readily be housed
in the swimming pool and showers.
Phe sophomores could -be penned in
Taylor Tower to advantage.
Now, we have A, the seniors; B, the
juniors; C, the sophomores.’ Let us
represent next year’s. entire? student
body by X. Then X—A plus B plus
C will equal the incoming freshmen.
The problem regarding them is per-
haps slightly more difficult. But it is
soluble: this unknown quantity may
be driven into Dalton and blown up.
This will reduce them to infinity... .
or do we mean infinitesmality? At
any rate, we shall have reached a
limit.
This system: may’be somewhat rad-
ical, but if it is done to the entire
college gradually, by a series of pro-
gressions, we assure you there will
be no further question regarding the
quota.

GENESIS OF MINNIE
We have chosen “Minnie” as our
patron saint and pen name because
Minnie to us is the highest symbol
of production. Minnie is a cat—she
is no fabrication, ‘she actually lives.
Her. real name is Minet, which is
French for Tom,‘and she has pro-
duced one hundred and fifteen off-
springs, all thriving (except those
that were drowned). We hasten to
explain that the name is purely sym-
bolic and that our production is to
be literary.
But to get back to Minnie—no de-
scription can do justice to her charms.
As you’ve probably guessed she has
sex appeal, possibly the touch of Per-
sian, which is her inheritance from
her forbears (pardon us—forecats).
She is pansy-faced, pearly grey, with
a white jabot and white mittens, and
has an unmusical voice (very fashion-
able) which is the common charac-
teristic of all her children. She is
valiant, as she proved when a skunk
disturbed her most recent accouche-
ment. Two kittens were already
mewing plaintively in her box.
nie did not hesitate.
defeated the skunk, returned casually
to her box and had two more kitténs
(which, as far as we know, havé no
complexes—olfactory or otherwise).
We are reminded of the story of
the lady who mit aw jour a numerous
family because, she explained, she was
always curious to see what the next
child would be like. innie prob-
ably feels that way,
dom disappointed. She has had cali-
coes, tortoise shells/ maltese, several
beautiful Persians/(to those who do
no know her histofy they look authen-
tails, which were always very wild
jand finally ran away. One kitten,
‘however, waS so nondescript that he
was not even given a name until ful-
ly grown; / finally he developed a com-
plex which distinguished him from
his brothers. And’so we named ‘him
Eddiepuss.
on the whole, those of a successful
columnist. We don’t mean that a col-
umnist has to be gray-haired (or pan-
sy-faced), wear white mittens, and
have a voice like Libby Holman’s, but
we do insist on variety and courage.
One thing we would like to add, which
we fear Minnie has not, isa sense of
the ridictilous; afd one we would like
to omit, which we fear Minnie has—
a catty outlook.

Says Théatre’s Charm Ends
When’ One Has to Depend
on It for Livelihood
HEIGHT IS HANDICAP
“Last Saturday’ we took a deep
‘ breath, got a grip on ourselves and
marched resolutely back to the stage
door of the Morosco Theatre, where
Katherine Hepburn, Bryn Mawr,
1928, is playing in The. Warrior’s
Husband. We asked hopefully for
Miss Hepburn and were told “they
wguld see if she was in.” While wait-
ing for the verdict,.we perused the.
theatre annqyncement board and dis-
covered some interesting facts. Colin
Keith Johnson has the first dressing
subjett and she suggested that we get
out of producing ‘an interview. by say-
ing “she was a virago and had had
is thrown out.” However, Miss Hep-
ourn did volunteer some information.
While at Bryn Mawr she had al-
ways been interested in dramatics,
but never created a sensation. She
came into her own, theatrically speak-
ing, only last. year, when she appear-
2d in Jane Cowl’s Art and Mrs. Bottle.
‘The theatre is\ swell if you don’t
have to depend on it for a livelihood,”
she said. “If you can afford to watch
ind wait until a good part comes your
way, you have more fun-and get fur-
‘her.” Among the handicaps which
eset her, ‘she said that the greaté&t
me had been her height. ‘Although
she is only five feet six, she has lost
nany parts because she rivalled the
cowering manhood of the theatre.
However, in The Warriors’ Husband
ner height stood her in good stead,
curls over the forehead and in the
back. She. decided ‘to wear it curled
because she “looks most peculiar with
it down.” Her hair has always been
curled for every performance, and “it
is seldom that she goes through the
ritual without burning some part of
her anatomy. She never allows her
maid to make her up because she hates
to Be “fussed over. At this point)
said maid, who is descended to her
from Libby Holman, came into the
room bearing a two-pound jar of cold
cream, which she _ said_ she
bought at a one-cent sale and thought
was good enough for the body.” The
Amazon now turned her attention to
her tan. It seems that Vogue re-
quested her, .along with Miss Wil-)
liams, to sit for one of their future |
covers, saying that she made an ideal |
subject. beeause of her beautiful
shade. For a week she lived in ter-|

| Styx, Typical Campus Dog,
Enjoys First Interview
In a special interview, Miss Marti
has kindly given us many interesting
details as to the history and‘ daily
life of her beloved Styx. Surprising-
ly enough, the dog does not legally
belong to her, but to Dr. Gray. The
‘explanation of this lies in’ the fact
that an alien residing in this’ coun-
try cannot own either a dog or a
gun.
Styx is a police dog and very, very
black, — hence his name. He was
bought at the kennels of Mrs. Eustis

street. Miss Skinner explained that
they. were dressed in typical campus
costumes and “looked a little strange,”
so that Market Street was a bit taken
aback by the performance, which held
up traffic for a considerable time.
Miss Skinner was, of course, active
in dramatics at college (her. friends
attest that she was active in every-
thing, including athletics). But while
there is a question of her athletic
success there was none of her dramat-
ic ability. She wrote and produced
her Freshman Show, and was a lead-
er in Varsity Dramatics. The parts
she played evidently varied greatly,
as at least once she played a man
over ninety. This was Sir Jasper
Thorndike in Rosalind, and about it
she had another story. It seems that
her make-up included a pair of fluf-
fy side-burns, a fluffy white wig, and
some very fluffy chin-whiskers. As a
leading player and the daughter of a
famous actor, she was photographed
in costume for the papers. Some
years later, at the beginning of the
run in one of the first. plays she ap-
peared in, the elevator man in her,
apartment presented her one night
with this same picture, which had
just appeared in the evening paper.
It seems that-it was the only one in
the newspaper files and they had
seized upon it in haste. As it was
pretty appalling in its original state,
a kindly retouch man had attempted
to improve on it, and the result was
something very like an angera kitten.
Miss Skinner was conspicuous in her
absence from the picture.
Miss Skinner is still tremendously
interested in college affairs (which
may or may not be due to the fact
that she only remained at Bryn Mawr
two years.) In any case the bloom
has not. yet worn off for her. Her
enthusiasm. for May-day was a great
boost to our own somewhat jaded in-
terest. She is possessed of a rare
quality of enthusiasm and we some-
how felt that even if she did have to
make paper flowers and practice folk-
dancing, she would ‘enjoy it. We
learned that in her year, at this time,
every one in college could have done
the dance steps backwards, and Mrs.
Collins, who was present, gave us an
accusing stare. We back down hum-
bly. We recognize our faults, and we
were’a little intimidated. in the pres-
ence of greatness, We even refrain-
ed from stating our grievances. It
is our’hope, however, that when Miss
Skinner returns to Bryn. Mawr for the
two days of May 6 and 7, she will
not find our offering too unworthy of
the honor she confers on us by par-
ticipating in it.

the sun. Socially ostracized by all but
the men of the island, she is too well
educated to be content, but seeing no
possible escape, she just “swims all
day and lies in the sun.” Miss Skin-
ner’s portrayal of this striking figure
was restrained and delicate; her fa-
cile command of dialect showed here
at its finest. It was one of the high
points of the afternoon. “The Eve of
Departure,” “Night Club” and “Mo-
toring in the ’90’s” were amusing or
touching by turns, but hardly in the
same class with the “Beach” or the
“Wives” that followed.
Afver a brief intermission Miss
Skinner entered upon the main part
of the program, her original interpre-
tations of the characters of the six
wives of Henry the Eighth. The first,
Catharine of Aragon, is described ir
a program note as follows: ‘The
daughter of Ferdinand and Isabella
of Spain, she was virtually queen of.
England for twenty-four years. She
stubbornly refused during her life-
time to grant Henry the divorce he
desired, and was removed forcibly to
Kimbolton Castle when he obtained
it. There she died after three years,
deprived of the society of her only
child, who was later to become Bloody
Mary. Gorgeously costumed, Miss
Skinner made a dramatic entrance in
this character. During her conver-
sation with first, Anne Boleyn, then,
her daughter, the Princess Mary, then
a nameless Spanish courtier, and fin-
ally with Henry himself, one aspect
after another of her strange person-
ality was emphasized.. Miss Skinner’s |
command of dialect we have spoken
of before, and here it shone forth
again. Her Spanish was beautiful,
deep and husky in quality, and the
very slight accent in her English was
most effective. Although much of the
situation at the court in 1525 was
outlined in the sketch, no particularly
dramatic conflict, was involved. Strik-
ing and illuminating as it was, this
was. distinctly inferior to the sketch
that followed.
The Yovely and much calumnized
Anne Boleyn, mother of Elizabeth,
and second wife of Henry, was shown
at the tragic climax of her career, the
scene in the Tower a few moments
before her execution. All the fasci-
nation of this complex woman show-
ed
treatment Miss Skinner used; all of
her many lovers “and she, had been
loved,” were brought in as she reviews
her colorful past, and brought in ‘so
skillfully that one was hardly aware
of the exposition. Most impressive of
all was the fact that, although one
knew her well, as she marched to her
death, one was still baffled, as indeed
she must have been herself, as to the
real depth of her love for Henry. The
writing of this skit was a triumph in
itself, and Miss Skinner’s perform-
ance was so moving that her last exit
was followed by the deep hush which
is the highest tribute an audience can
pay a tragic scene.
Jane Seymour, lovely fragile crea-
ture, completely cowed" by: her royal
~-husband, whom she had great difficulty
in calling “Henry,” was one of the
most charthing women that appeared.
Miss Skinner’s make-up change from
Anne Boleyn to the blonde Jane was
most impressive. Her sweetness,
tinged with the shadows of the gloomy

end that lay so near in the future, was
most touching; Jane was in pathos,
what Anne had been in tragedy, an
almost perfectly drawn character, and
a perfectly played-one,. .
Anne of Cleves followed next, and
occasioned more mirth in the audience
than any of the humorous skits of the
first part of the afternoon. In a new
accent Miss Skinner was again re-
markably competents“we ‘could’ not
help thinking when ‘she broke into
what seemed to us flawless German,
that this was perhaps the object of
the language requirements of Bryn
Mawr, as this was the third language
in which Miss Skinner seemed perfect-
ly at home. The simply, ruddy, and
not too graceful maid of Cleves, “who
had liffed so now thirty years so yet
no man shood kiss her,” was clearly
a terrific shock. to Henry, who had
judged her from the portrait Holbein
had done of -her.. His unceremonious
departure left her for a moment per-
plexed and «troubled, but she soon
cane to see that it was but the “bash-
fdolness” of love at first sight, and
one realized that Anne’s fate, though
not the one she evidently expected
would be in no sense a tragic one. Her
cheerful good humor was a match for
in the singularly sympathetic |
the direst threats of this ungentle
; monarch. :
| Katheryn Howard, the most beau-
| tiful of the queens, was also the most
obviously worthy of the fate that over.
| took her. She was discovered in a
,¢landestine love ,affair with Thomas
i Culpepper and Kecheaded at the insti-
‘gation of the Archbishop Cranmer.
Less of a tragic figure than Anne Bo-
ileyn, she had very definitely the sym-
pathy of the audience, for all her
| transgressions and flippant disrespect
of the old, gouty monarch. She was
not by any means’an admirable char-
‘acter, but she was a striking and a
bewitching. one. .
In the last sketch of the group Miss
Skinner did a piece of acting, and
again we must add, of writing also,
that deserved perhaps ‘more credit
than it. is likely to get. Katherine
Parr, the last wife of Henry, and the
only one to outlive him, was not as
romantic a figure as any of her prede-
|cessors, although she was by far the
‘most successful of them. The scene
chosen was that at‘the bedside of the
dying king, who, in his delirium,
mixed the names of all his many
wives and had great difficulty in re-
membering which he had_ beheaded.
The—stolid—Englishwoman’s~ views of
jher predecessors were wonderfully
| typical—Jane being the only one of
whom she really approved. Her quiet
and masterful manner at the bedside,
although lacking in warmth, showed
wonderful insight in its character and
admirable restraint. Here, again, Miss
Skinner spoke in a foreign language,
this“time in the Latin of the Agnus
Dei, ‘which she said at the request of
the dying king.
Nothing too complimentary can be
said of this last group. Miss Skinner
has obviously studied her characters
carefully; the work has an air of au-
thenticity about it—from the costumes
to the merest detail of the action. But
it was the acting by which Miss Skin-
ner lifted the performance ‘to real
heights, and set it apart from any
similar performance we have ever
seen.—J. M. %

The oxen to draw the May Pole al-
ways present a problem. This year
they are snow white, have curled

Elizabethan tents are to be erected

|May Pole Dancing is
Important Part of May Day
Since the May pole dancing sets the
keynote for the whole May Day per-
formance, and it is essential that the
dancing be smooth and spontaneous
the May Day Committee has obtained
the assistance of Mildred Buchanan
Bassett, Bryn Mawr, ’24, for the final
three weeks of preparation.
Mrs. Bassett was on the All-Amer-
ican Hockey Team in 1927 and is per-
haps the greatest athlete Bryn Mawr
has ever produced. She played on
every team and at the 1924 May Day
her dancing as William Kemp created
a tremendous impression. After her
graduation she remained here as part-
time assistant to Miss Appleby and
|organized the Buccaneers, a team of
Main Line private school gym teach-
ers, which has given Varsity close
competition. In the’ summer of ’27
-
: She went to England to study with the
English Folk Dancing Society and re-
turned here to assist with the 1928
May Day.
Since rehearsals on the green have
been put off till later than ever before,
it is absolutely imperative that ev-
eryone be regular in attendance. The
college has already co-operated by
moving the dinner hour. The _ fact
that-nothing has-ever been permitted
to interfere with the traditional rou-
tine shows the importance of these
rehearsals.

The hospitality of the Royal Broad-

numerous records of the speeches of
public officials, made in informal mo-
ments, with much shushing of the
“3’3.”' Mr. Penniger, the recording
expert, was most charming in ex-
plaining the technicalities of the
machinery; his tempo was a bit rapid,
but the saliént points are as follows:
a neédle, vibrating to the various fre-
quencies of the notes coming: over the
microphone, cuts into a wax disc, and
this disc is electroplated with nickel,
later used as the master. It seem-
ed incredible that Mr. Penniger (the
exact double of Clifton Webb in ap-
pearance) was actually engaged in a
serious occupation; at every moment

_solid, heavy effect of horizontally laid
bricks. He is a very conscientious
architect and omits no details, such
as chrome window panes and screens
curved at the corners—although his
work is functionally sound. The
beautifying of structural necessities
is the basis of his scheme of dec+.
oration. America has been viewing |
this new style with scornful conserva-
tism, and the movement may never
make any headway here. Through|
the efforts of George Howe and Ray-
‘mond Hood, several skyscrapers have
been built in this tradition with the
correct structural and functional em-
phasis on the horizontal lines of the!

Mr. Johnson also traced briefly the
changes in the interior designs of
houses for the last century. The for-
mally built Georgian house of 1809,
with its six rooms for living purposes,
gave way to. the prairie-house with
its one room for the necessities of
life, created by Frank Lloyd Wright
about 1900. In 1920 there was a fur>
ther breaking down, until the house
became one grand abstract design
with all “outside” walls and no “in-
side” divisions. It was a materiali-
zation of the fluid space idea. The
1931 International Style house be-
came formalized again,—at least in
regard to exterior outline; it was_not
dependent on axes and the regulari-
ty of structure existed in an arrange-
ment of posts, not falls. Mies Van der
Rohe created the most fascinating of |.
these 1931 houses. It has but one
large room afd the various corners,

feeling of space, but also of. privacy.

BOOK REVIEWS
A World Begins, by Countess Irina
Skariatina.
Countess Skariatina has produced
a remarkable Russian-exile book, one
tha: makes a contribution to Ameri-
cana. Almost two-thirds of A Wofld
Begins records a series of exepriences,
some painful, some amusing, from her
landing at New York Harbor to the
grand finale in Metropole (probably
Chicago), when grim reality fades to
allow romance to enter. But the chap-
ters in between, dealing with her life
in a small Mid-Western town, ‘cdn-
veniently fictitious, are an unforget-
table record of a cultured European’s
reaction to its types. She tutored the
wife of the town magnate in French,
reading to her from Dumas all day
and often part of the night. -In the
intervals she ate, slept, and tried to
remain sane, She boarded at one
mean village boarding-house and lodg-
ed at a worse. Near her lodging, a
train passed every night at midnight,
but unlike Karenina, she kept away
All of which bears out Mr. Sinclair
in his picture of Main Street; for
though most Europeans accept his
books as gospel truth, and watch the
American scene through his eyes, here
is one of. an-alien-race who-has looked
through her own eyes and seen the
same thing. A World Begins gains
richness through Countess Skaria-
tina’s memories of the past, which
crowd into her mind as she writes.
She is not obtrusively conscious of
her superiority to her series of em-
ployers, and her lack of pose makes
her position more pathetic, for it. is
not her,, pride that is suffering, but

Andrew Biemiller Pleads
for Striking Kentuckians
Tuesday night in. the Common
Room, the shade of Thomas Jefferson
was invoked on behalf of the Harlan
County, Kentucky, miners by Mr. An-
drew Biemiller. Since the summer of
1931 war has been going on in the
hill-billy county of Harlan. Not much
is being done for the families of strik-
ing miners, as relief stations , have
been blown up and food, brought
across the- border for the strikers,
seized for strikebreakers.
© wae from a number of col-
leges have been either beaten up and
thrown out or stopped at the border.
Jennie Lee, on a necessarily brief visit
‘to. the strike area, testified that. she
had never seen anything as bad in
Welsh mines as in Harlan. “The group
is entirely dependent on the help of
outsiders,” said Mr. Biemiller in con-
ply trying to do away with the first
ten amendments.”

Grand Hotel Review
Whatever else Grand Hotel may be,
it is a daring gesture on the part of
the producers. . Vicki Baum’s story
of the tragedy, adventure and ro-
mance which exist side by side in a
center of metropolitan life—a hotel,
for instance—deals with individuals |.
of widely different temperaments,
each immersed in his or her affairs,
oblivious to the troubles of others
until for a minute chance brings them
together.. To make five characters
equally important to the structure
of a story would not be an easy task
in any case, but with an assembly of
“stars” the risk of failure is far
greater. Yet Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
has shied at nothing, not even at
Greta Garbo, who has but to slither
across a screen once and the world
is hers. ;
Grand Hotel, however, is not “the
new Garbo movie.” As a matter of
fact, the Glamorous One is‘sadly mis-
cast. Despite her awkwardness, she
might still have been a Mata Hari,
but a Russian ballet dancer—never.
Unfortunately, she is not the only
one miscast.. Those who saw Wallace
Beery in The Big House or Hell
Divers will have difficulty in picturing
him as General Director Preysing, the
textile magnate whose visit to Grand
Hotel is for the purpose of putting
through a big business merger. Coat-
tails alone cannot lend dignity. As
for the German accent, it seems su-
perftuous when the dialogue is sup-
posedly in German. The same applies
to Lewis Stone, who, as the shell-
shocked doctor, is as satisfactory as
his part allows.
We realize, of course, that Hortense
Aldens do not grow in every studio,
and though Miss Crawford, never
quite convincing as the society girl,
is not yet Flaemmchen, the little hotel
stenographer of the dry humor and
expedient morals, she gives a very
creditable performance — far better
than we‘ had ever expected from the
starry-eyed Joan.
If the film belongs to anyone, how-
ever, it is to the Barrymores. As
the droll young Baron, black sheep
of his family, John, with his flair for
comedy, makes von Gaigern as charm-
ing and at the same time as sympa-
thetic a character as Frau Baum could
wish. And most of it, whether ad-
monishing his dachshund or stealing
Mme. Grusinskaya’s pearls, is done
with a roll of the eye and a cock of
the head. To Lionel, however, go the
greatest honors. Kringelein, the dy-
ing clerk who has resolved to pass
his last days in an orgy of spending,
is unforgettable. It is said that dur-
ing their first scene together, he and
burst into tears.
And we can well believe it. At the
same time, his performance is, far
less sentimental than was that of the
stage production. His Kringelein is
at times even comic, as when he stag-
gers into his room after too many
“Touisiana flips.” And he can be
tremendously affecting without having
recourse to hysterics, as in the. scene
when he defies his former employer,
Preysing. After seeing Mr. Barry-
more as the bullying general in Mata
Hari, it seems inconceivable that he
and the browbeaten, hollow-chested
Kringelein can be the same.
It is interesting to note how the
two brothers “build up” scenes for
each other, as when the Baron steals

Kringelein’s precious wallet. Co-op-
eration, however, -is evident through-
out the picture. . Perhaps that is why,
| despite the errors in casting and the
superior acting ability of the Barry-
mores—as yet the stage can boast of
its children—Grand Hotel makes the
author’s point.
It is obvious, of course, that the
set should be one of the central fig-
ures of the story, and what with the
telephone operators, the crowded lobby
and the long halls, we are quite con-
scious of its presence. And it is alto-
gether proper that, . although the
screen treatment, blending, as it does,
action from the novel and the play,
should embrace a slightly larger field
of activity than they, the action be
always confined to. the four walls of
the hotel. The photography could
easily have been unusual. Unfortu-
nately, except for a view of the lobby
from above, the opportunities are
neglected, and the sets, though ade-
quate to the demands of the story,
are not very imaginative—a quglity
which would have set the movie on a
plane of its own. It is true, of course,
that the jumps in sequence, which,
despite the revolving stage, made the
play awkward, have been eliminated.
Also, the movies have shown a certain
amount of taste in cutting the scene
between Preysing and Flaemmchen,
so objectionable to the Parents’
League.‘ Otherwise they have fol-
lowed the story quite faithfully. On
the whole, the faults of the picture
are those of the play; Frau Baum has
not always clearly defined the motives
of her characters.
But if the screen version of Grand
Hotel has the faults of the original,
it has also the virtues, and bids fair
to be as popular as the play, which
