SCENERY IS EFFECTIVE
(Especially Contributed by
Janet Marshall)
If there is one event in the col-;
lege year to which every one on the|
campus, to say nothing of a great!
number of the alumnae and outside |
friends of the college look seetieet
with great interest, it is the Glee
Club’s performance of a Gilbert aa
Sullivan operetta. There is a»stand-
ard of past performances which sets
no mean mark for every succeeding '
year to shoot at, and it is amazing’
to watch that standard slowly push-
ed up year by year, with hardly |
ever a set-back. This year’s per-
formance of Patience more than ful-
filled the great demands made on
it. From the scenery and costum-
ing to the work of the individual
leads, it was a really fine perform-
ance, with frequent high-spots and
amazingly few low-spots. It is diffi-
cult. to describe it in detail with-
out singing an uninterrupted and
monotonous paean of praise.
The work of the members of the
east collectively was excellent, al-
though at times there was a notice-
able lack of direction, which was
only partially compensated by the in-
genuity of the actresses. Miss
Righter as Grosvenor could not have
been. more charming. Her voice,
while not .an_ exceptionally well-
trained one, has a peculiarly charm-
ing quality. She has one of the
most unusual stage presences we
have ever seen: for she is entirely
at —ease—and--yet--compelling at the:
same moment;. her work is appar-
ently without effort and yet comes
across the foot-lights with more
surenéss and. force than that of any
other member of the cast. Miss Cul-
bertson as Patience, on the other
hand, displayed what seemed to us
a’ really fine, trained soprano, and
acting that, while it was certainly
not without charm, had a more stud-
ied. and calculated appearance than
Mics Righter’s. Miss Wood, as
Bunthorne, was cast in a part which
was very difficult for a person of

| Rastern Railroads Announce
Plan for Reducing Fares
The rail pce 8 in what is com-
monly known as Eastern: territory
|hdve established a plan which they
‘feel assured will bring about a more
‘convenient and extensive use of re-
duced fares. The basis of the reduc-
ition is,one and one-third fare for the
‘round-trip, and this offer is extended
‘not only to the students of universi-
| ties and colleges, but also to the mem-
‘bers of the staff, professors and teach-
ers. Previously, the reduced fares
‘for students have been directed more
‘particularly to travel from the col-
‘lege point to’ the students’ home and
‘return during the Christmas’ or
|Spring vacatiens, and there have
een no reductions available for the
going trip at the opening of the col-
lege, nor the returning trip at the
|close of the college. The new plan
covers reduced fare periods under
|which tickets may be purchased be-
iginning at the home station to the
‘college, usable for return during the
Christmas vacation, the Spring vaca-
tion, or at the close of the college,—
an arrangement which covers the en-
tire year. Below are the conditions
under which these tickets may be pur-
chased for the college year 1933-34.
The railroads operating in the ter-
ritories outlined “kelow have author-
ized these reduced fares: (1). which
includes the States of New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware,
Maryland, District of Columbia, Vir-
ginia and West Virginia. (2) which
includes the States of Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts,
Rhode Island and Conneeticut. (3)
which includes localities west of Buf-
Niagara Falls,

and Kenova, to and including Chi-
cago and St. Louis, and north of: the
Ohio River, including Cincinnati,
Louisville and Cairo.

Rabbi Wise Preaches
Baccalaureate Sermon
!We Must Stand on Our Feet,
Heed Divine Command,
and be True
IDEALS ARE LIFE - LONG
The Baccalaureate service in honor
of the class of 1933 was led by Rabbi
Stephen S. Wise, of New York City.
In his sermon Rabbi Wise gave this
threefold advice for the conduct of
life; we must stand on our own feet,
we must listen. for the divine com-
mand, we must “trust. and be not
afraid.”
It is’ difficult to review and to sum
up the many intellectual privileges of
four college years, but there are cer-
tain obvious things which life within
college walls must bring us or our
education has been futile, The spirit
of education lies in the ‘words of the
prophet Ezekiel, “Child of man, stand
upon. thy feet and I will speak
through thee.” A college education
does not give us complete knowledge;
its purpose is to make us understand
that we must stand on our own feet,
see with our own eyes and hear with
our. own ears, not with the “ears of
past ages, and the eyes of long ago.”
We want not the finished mind, but
the hospitable mind, open not to some
truth, not to partial truth, not to
vrejudiced truth, but to the truth. It
is a tragedy when a nation yields to
the domination of old prejudices. We
should not let ourselves be deceived
by voices of yesterday or by the fleet-
ing counsels of the hour, but should
test’ the truth by-ourselves.. Courage
to: reject old prophets and a mind
open to the voices of divine authority
is the never-ending education.
Beyond being merely “seekers after
truth’ we must. reveal it-in.“‘manual
service, human passion, and the glory
of divine compassion.” Many people
think it is admirable to care for noth-
ing. They are cynics, and their cyni-
cism is only weariness of spirit mak-
ing excuses for itself, and not having |)
the courage of its feeble convictions.
The great men in history have all
been beset by! difficulties, but. they
have never doubted the divine voices.
They have never heeded those who
say, “Put away your dreams.” If our
‘ideal is real we can never abandon
it, and it will never desert us, but

j interested in economics, and intends
ito do graduate work next year at
‘| Radcliffe College in both these fields.
The award of the Fellowship is a
fitting climax to the honors Miss Wil-
liams has received in school and col-
lege, for not only did she win the
lower school once, and in the upper
school three times at the Agnes Ir-
win, School in Philadelphia, but. in
1932 she was awarded the Charles S.
Hinchman Memoria] Scholarship, giv-
en to the student doing the best work
in her major subject. Miss Williams’
interests have not been. confined to
academic achievements: she was
president of the Irwin Dramatic and
Debating Clubs, and business mana-
ger of The Irwinian; at Bryn Mawr
she has been manager of the 1933
Freshman Show, vice-president of the
Sophomore Class, treasurer of the
Undergraduate Association, president
of the Senior Class, 1932-33 hall
president of Merion. She also helped
to organize the International Rela-
tions Club.
When pressed for her opinions and
criticisms of college life, Miss Wil-
liams said that she strongly object-
ed to the public posting of marks
and felt that each student should be
sent her own marks privately, and
that they should be given her in let-
ters, not numbers. She believes that
midyear examinations should be elim-
inated _in_all possible courses, but
thinks that the reviewing and the
grasp of the entire field necessitated
by a final examination over the whole
year’s work are valuable to the stu-
dent. She approves of- the present
system and nature of required sub-
jects, but.suggests-that in return a
Facult¥ Show once every four years
should be required by the students.

Nothing could have been more stupid than
the recent style of overthrowing traditional ideals without considering

- The attitude of the Alumnae as a whole toward Bryn Mawr and
the achievements of her graduates is the part of the tradition most

of the present undergraduates, and
their interest in recent developments in college education show a com-
plete freedom from the idea, popularly expected of Alumnae every-

It will not “be easy for the present

education, literature, and international problems.

We feel that their open mind¢dness, their belief in the power and

it will be worth our living and our
dying for it. Therefore we should
work at our own enterprises feeling
that they are part of the divine
spirit. ‘Where there is no vision the
people perish.”
Finally, we must “trust and be not
afraid,” for they who have little faith,
many doubts and many fears will
never see God. We must serve, not
ourselves, not gold and the worldly
things around us, but watching and
listening for the vision and the voice
of the Highest, and always Teady to
follow the gleam. _ | oe

Dear Miss Taussig:
We—that is Mr. and Mrs. Edmund
}Pearson—have received the ingitas|
tion of the Senior Class to the. Gar-
den Party—and think it is perfect-
ly sweet. of them to ask us. Some
of Mimi Dodge’s work, no doubt. As
the invitation asks us to reply to: you
before May 22, and as we didn’t get it
till June 2 (honest to God, Miss
Taussig, it was post-marked “Bryn
Mawr,” June 1) we fear it is too
late, and that all the strawberries
and ice-cream are ordered by now,
and if we came it would ball things
‘up terribly.
We can’t expect you to put off the
party till July 12 just forus, and
we simply can’t, reply before May
22. Even the girl in the limerick
couldn’t do that, not even with Ein-
stein’s help:
She eloped one day,
In a relative way,
And came back on the previous night.
But we are going to show our ap-
preciation and convey our best wishes
to Mimi, just the same. We have
got hold of a floral horse-shoe—made
of paper flowers, that are practical-
ly indestructible—it is about seven
feet high, and would look well almost
anywhere. It is tied with a big gilt
bow,—real gilt—and has an inscrip-
tion, “GOOD LUCK,” both in Eng-
lish and in Yiddish — which looks
something like Greek, and is there-
fore kind of academic and learned-
looking. You know, the kind they
give to delicatessen stores, when they
are just opening. We are sending
thi§ down to Mimi, for her gradua-
Don’t let on; we want it to be
a surprise. .
I wonder if you are related to Pro-
fessor Taussig, who used to give Eco-
nomics 1, at ‘Cambridge years ago?
There were times when, if I could
have laid my hands on him, Miss
Taussig, it would have prevented you
from being where you are today.
However, you are not to blame for
that. Let by-gones be by-gones, is
my motto. What is your motto?
Never mind about writing until after
graduation.
With bect wishes, “

Book Notes
The enthusiastic reception accord;
ed to Miss Edith Sitwell’s survey of
the fantastic characters in the great,
days of Bath ensures an even wider
appreciation for this selection of Ec-
centrics, The English Eccentrics
(Faber & Faber). Here is Mr. Ro-
meéo, Diamond, or Curricle Coates, in
all the splendor of his jewels. Here
is Squire Waterton, the Wanderer,
and Margaret Fuller, the woman
who made Emerson laugh—who as
an American should not be admitted
into this company, but who, because
she is irresistible, cannot be kept
out. There are many other delight-
ful people who are well drawn by
Miss Sitwell. The best sketch is of
Squire Mytoon, who lighted his night-
shirt with a candle in order to
frighten away his hiccough. No one
but Edith Sitwell could make so wit-
ty, so amusing, so evocative .a book,
From Mr. Gerald- Bullett we have
grown accustomed to expecting origi-
nality of theme, unfailing sympathy
towards his characters, and a rare
poise of style, as gifts which we have
a right to receive. In The Quick and
the Dead (Heinemann) he has treat-
ed us very generously indeed. The
story, which is set in a village not
far from London, is seen through the
eyes of a man remembering his boy-
hood. The resultant picture, seen as
in a white light, is as clearcut in
outline as an intaglio, and as en-
during; and the story moves, serene-
ly and beautifully, from moment to
moment of high drama. A brilliant
novel. :
Since . Ibsen (Knopf) by our
friend, Mr. George Jean Nathan, of
Vanity Fair fame, is a troublesome
collection of nonsense, well done. A
survey of typical plots, scenes, and
dialogue from those strangely fami-
liar plays which every year are found
in the theatres of New York and
other provincial towns, which car-
ries out the author’s intention to pre-
sent a complete and serious «statisti-
cal digest of the elements constitut-
ing the world’s popular theatre since
the time of Ibsen. We are sorry
that Mr. Nathan did not include his
comments on Design For Living.‘
Mrs. Sylvia Jerman’s first novel,
Prelude To Departure (Harper), is
a very brilliant book, concerning as
it does the livesyof two people, both
of whom were dominated by fear.
Charles was bound by spiritual
shackles and he could never free his
soul of its burdening self-conscious-
ness. Daisy was held in physical
bondage for she had ‘been a cripple
since the day when as a young girl
she had first realized that she was
pretty and that life held promise for
her. Their lives apart and together
unfold with a: strange poetry that
is intense and deeply moving, ex-
préssing those rare sensations that
flutter just back of consciousness and
are the color and quality of person-
ality. The book creates an atmo-
sphere of its own that envelops you
when you are reading it and lingers
when you have finished.
R. E. Spencer, the author of The
Lady Who Came To Stay, has writ-
ten a disappointing second novel, The
Incompetents (Knopf). The story
of a woman who stays with her hus-
band until her daughter is well dis-
posed of by marriage. The woman
then leaves her husband to find that
she is only coming back to that from
which she had been trying to escape.
When.a mother finds herself the mis-
-|tress of her, daughter’s husband there
is plenty of good material for bril-
liant writing. Mr. Spencer has fallen
down badly on his second attempt to
portray the lives and emotions of peo-
ple who are a bit above the average
in contemporary works of fiction.
One, None and a Hundred Thou-
sand (Dutton), by Luigi Pirandello,
is the story of a rich young Italian,
who was in a state of panic because
his wife remarked that the right side
of his nose was a little lower than
‘the left. His vanity outraged, he
rushes out of the house to ask the
first man he meets if it is true. Per-—
plexed and maddened, he wonders
who is right. Who is he actually;
the man his wife thinks he is, the dif-
ferent men his friends think he is, or
as he thinks he is himself? Or is he
nobody in himself and merely a com-
poste of other people’s opinions? ‘Is
he one, none or a hundred thousand?

Varsity Athletics
Summarized for Year
Record in Four Sports Shows
Lack of ‘Co-Operation is
Greatest Fault
SWARTHMORE WINS ONE}
Although it won only ‘one game of
the 1932 scheduls, the . Varsity
Ho¢ckey team showed marked improve-
ment at the end of the season, both
in the offense and the defense. We
were especially pleased to note that
the lack of co-operation which was
so evident at the beginning had prac-
tically disappeared at the end of. the
season—the team as a whole had
learned to play as a unit.
The forwards, particularly, devel-
oped froma poor offense into a true
menace. Passes were gotten away
much more quickly and showed a de-
cided improvement in accuracy. The
stick work of the team, however, is
still amateurish and uninspirng.
Most of the credit for real improve-
ment goes to the defense. In the first
three games, the opponents tallied
twelve points against. the—backs-and
goal guard, but in the last three only
eight points were made. Together
with the decrease in the opponents’
scoring there was was a gain of four
points in Varsity’s scoring in the last
three games, indicating that the de-
fense was such that the -ball was
kept in the forwards’ possession most
of the time—as was, in fact, the
case.
The following are the statistics for
the season:
Main Line, 4; Bryn Mawr, 0.
Merion C. C., 3; Bryn Mawr, 2.
Germantown, 5; Bryn Mawr, 2.
Philadelphia, 6; Bryn Mawr, 2.
Swarthmore, 2; Bryn Mawr, 2.
Rosemont, 0; Bryn Mawr, 4.
Total points scored: Opponents,
20; Bryn Mawr, 12.
* * =
With the exception of the facul-
ty game and the tie with Rosemont,
the Bryn Mawr basketball team came
through-an unusualky successful sea-
son. In spite of a slow start, Var-
sity finally learned to co-operate. The
spirit of individual playing, which,
unfortunately, seems to characterize
most of —our--teams, had practically
disappeared, leaving a smoothly
working team, the members of which
were playing for a common end, Un-
fortunately, we cannot say as much
for the second team. Only too often,
inability to co-operate and slowness
of play made the games compara-
tively uninteresting to’ watch, al-
though the team came through the
season undefeated.

After two inter-class swimming
meets in which the Freshmen took
first place with a total score of 44
points, Miss Brady was able to pick
a squad to meet the famous Swarth-
more team. Displaying a speed and
versatility which has not been equal-
ed for “Several years, Varsity swam
to-a 48-36 victory.
_. Two records were broken this sea-
son and one equaled. Wylie broke the
College record for the 40-yard free
style; Waldemeyer surpassed her own
record of 13.2 seconds in the 20-yard
free style by coming in in 11 seconds,
while Porcher. squalled Mitchell’s rec-
' ord of 33 seconds for the 40-yard
crawl event. Bronson was given the
cup for the highest individual scoring
and the diving cup went to Daniels.
The events of the meet and their
-winners were as follows:
40-Yard Back Stroke—Bryn Mawr.
40-Yard Free Style—Bryn Mawr.
Crawl For Form—Bryn. Mawr.

Swarthmore, 36 points.

Orals, Patience. rehearsals and
genarally bad weather had rather. an
unfortunate effect on the tennis sea-
son this year.- Of sever scheduled
matches, the first was won by Bryn
Mawr; two were called because of
rain and the other four were lost
by increasingly large margins.
Faeth, No. 1 player, won four out
of her five matches, losing only to
Mr. Warburg in the Faculty match.
She made most of her scores on her
serves and’ net plays, but dropped
many points -by trying to kill her
opponent’s serves. :

Runner-Up o Highest Award
is Interested in Chemistry
and Economics
‘ |
The alte:nate for the Bryr Mawr |
European Fellowship for 1933 is Re-
bekah Lockwood Taft, of Andover,
Massachusetts. Last year ,the fac-
ulty decided to appoint an alternate
for the European Fellowship, so that
in case the winner did ng& wish to
use it, the Fellowship would not be
vacant for the year.. Miss Taft’s
average for all the work done in col-
lege is 87.5. Although her major sub-
ject in her Senior year was Econom-
ics, she is also interested in chemis-
try, and majored in that until the end
of her Junior year. She intends to
do graduate work in economics next
year at Radcliffe ‘college, and later
at the University of Cambridge in
England.
Miss Taft was prepared for col-
lege at the Saint Louis Open Air
School in Colorado Springs, Colorado;
and at Wykeham Rise, in Washing-
ton; Connecticut; ~~ where “she ~ was
president of the Self-Government As-
sociation, treasurer of the Athletic

Association, and received the. prizes
for scholastic achievements in the
fifth and sixth forms and for Physics
in the fifth. In 1932 she received the
Maria L. Eastman Brooke Hall Me-
morial Scholarship for the best av-
erage in her class, awarded on a basis
of all the work done since entering.
During the past year she has been
editor of the Student International-
ist, magazine of the International Re-
lations Club. '
When pressed for her opinions and
criticisms of college life, Miss Taft
said that she thought science courses
were the most valuable in college, be-
cause they taught the student to think
a problem through to its solution, log-
ically, clearly, and step by step. The
courses she enjoyed ‘most were Brit-
ish Imperialism, History of the Unit-
ed States Since 1898, and Econom-
ics; the course she regretted most
was Latin. She has a particular ob-
jection to the present examination
system, since she feels that examina-
tions are no indieation of the stu-
dent’s knowledge; since, however, she
also believes that the reviewing for
them is valuable to the student, she
suggests that they should be contin-
ued but counted much less. She thinks
that long reports, or oral reports
made directly to- the professor, so
that there may be informal discus-
sion of them, are surer indications
than. examinations of the student’s
grasp of the subject.
Miss Taft also objects to the pub-
lic posting of marks, and feels that
each student should be sent private-
ly her own mark and the average
mark of the class. She advocates
reading periods -instead of midyear
examinations, but feels that the read-
ing should be regulated so that—too
much work would not be required,
and so that there would be a large
choice for each course.

Why do these two words

and this may be considered a good
average, for more than 50 per cent
of the students who b-gan fencing at
the start of the season were still
déing it at the end.
It_must. be recognizedthat fencing
is a sport the practice of which re-
quires long and patient work if it is
to be dohe with most chance of suc-
cess. To develop a. good fencer it
is nécessary that the instructor de-
vote himself entirely to his pupils;
and it also demands on the part of
the pupils the willingness and the
energy to keep going throughout all
the lessons and to put what is learn-
ed into practice in bouts and compe-
titions.
The results in the competitions in
which Bryn Mawr fencers took part
are satisfactory and, what is more
important, considering the time of
practice, the quality of fencing of
the pupils is of a high grade of excel-
lence.
_ The following are the competitions
in which the Bryn Mawr College
fencers participated:
Jan. 10, 1933: Novice foil cham-
pionship of the Philadelphia division

Miss Nicoll entered 1 competition
and won 3 bouts out of 4; Miss. Hoyt
entered. 1 competition and won 2
1 competition and lost all of. her 4
bouts.
In view of the hard practice sea-
son that has been put in this year, it
is disappointing to know that two
of the senior fencers may not return
next year. It is therefore all the
more important that the juniors come
out again in full force at the open-
ing of next season, as the two vacant
places on the senior team may then
have to be filled. It is also desir-
more sophomores and
freshmen start with us in the fall,
so that a good junior team can be
worked up.
Fencing needs long and _ patient
practice, but with practice it becomes
an art rather than a sport, and the
more one does it, the more one likes
it.

Bowditch started the season play-
ing a much softer game than usual.
Her serves were inaccurate and her
drives dropped either into the net or
over the baseline. As the season con-
tinued, however, her service settled
down and she began to put more
power behind her strokes. Little, the
No. 4 player, played her usual steady
game, but her more experienced and
speedier opponents took three of her
four matches.

Miss Cooper Gives
Recital in Cloisters
(Especially contributed by Janet
Barber, and cui oy Sailie Jones)
On the evening of Sunday, May 21,
‘Miss Isabel Cooper, of the Elizabeth
Duncan School at‘ Salzburg, and at
present, to our good fortune, of Bryn
Mawr College, gave an informal re-
cital of traditional Duncan dances in
the cloisters. This Sunday evening
recital inaugurates something we be-
lieve to be of itself well worth con-
tinuing; and Miss Cooper’s distin-
* guished dancing, the choice of the
music and Mr. Hammond’s sympa-
thetic accompaniment, the beautiful
use of a setting unfortunately so sel-
dom used, were suggestive of the
possibilities of such Bryn Mawr Sun-
day evenings.
This program. was_ beautifully
adapted to the setting and to the time,
_ following the waning of the light; the
more brilliant Mozart, the definite
and somber Bach; the dance of the
Scythes, intentionally: or_no serving
“as the climax of the sunset; the fad
ing blue of the Iphegenia leading to
the night.
As to the particular dances, all but
two were dances of Isadora’s own,

pils, knows. Miss Cooper learned them

The Wind Dance, the first Bach,
was composed by Dora, a protégé of
Elizabeth Duncan’s; and the _ last

is still, she maintains, in the process
