ORE, °32, NAMED EUROPEAN FELLOW





Final Appearance



Harriet Moore Wins ’32
European Fellowship

Graduates With Distinction in
Both Economics and
Politics

HAS AVERAGE OF 92.54

The faculty has chosen Harriet
Lucy Moore, of Hubbard Woods, IIl.,
as this year’s European Fellow. Miss
Moore leads her class with the summa
cum laude average of 92.54, and grad-
uates with distinction in Economics







and _ Politics.

Miss Moore has also been outstand-
ing in other fields than the strictly
academic. She was, of course, presi-
dent of the Undergraduate Associa-
tion, and* hence also student repre-
sentative on the May Day Directors’
Committee, in which capacity she had
the difficult task of serving as med-
ium between the student body and the
three directors. As chairman of the

Curriculum Committee, she co-operat-
ed with the faculty in working out a
plan to relieve burden of overwork.
Last year she was both president of
her, class and vice-president of the
Athletic Association, and, as a sopho-
more, seryed as treasurer of the Self-
Government Association. In addition,

Bates House to Continue
Although its budget has been cut,
the Bates House Committee is plan-
ning to take care of 120 children as
usual, from New York and Philadel-
phia. - Betty Baumann will be the
head worker and Marjorie Lee, ’34,
the nént worker. The number
of ents who have signed up to
help is adequate, except for the sec-

\ond period.



Bryn Mawr Summer School
Will Run as Usual This Year



Although its- treasury will not be
full enough to provide a carrying fund
for the winter, the Bryn Mawr Sum-
mer School will open as usual this
June for an eight week session, with
a hundred students expected to attend.

A new feature on the program will
be the College Weekend from June
30 to July 5, to which twenty-five col-
lege people from different colleges
will be admitted, either undergradu-
ates or recent alumnae, and a special
schedule arranged. Anyone interested
in the different aspects of workers’
education and workers’ problems is in-
vited to apply. A charge of six dol-
lars will be made for the four-day
stay.

In addition to this, undergraduates
from six colleges will attend the whole
session. Sylvia Bowditch, °33, will be
the Bryn Mawr representative, and
there will also be students from Mt.
Holyoke, Vassar, Smith, Wellesley,
and Ohio State. The school has been
unable to find a place for. several
other colleges.

The general topic to be studied this
year will be Social Control. Five spe-
cial aspects of this problem will. be,
studied by the five groups into which
the school will be divided, i: e., Cur-
rent Economic Problems, Wagés and
Purchasing Power, History of Labor
Movements, Social Reorganization,
and Government and Political Parties.

The science lab in Taylor, with its
varied displays, is always a center of
interest. For the first time, the work
in science will be open to the whole
school, instead of to only two groups.
An endeavor will be made to ren-
der history as vivid as possible by
means of a history laboratory, with
pictures, maps, and a ‘stage where
historical scenes may be enacted.

though 135 workers have regis-
tered and been accepted, only 35 are

Members of Six Colleges
Confer at Radcliffe



Undergraduates from six* Eastern
colleges for women, Barnard, Bryn
Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Radcliffe,
Wellesley, and Smith, meeting at Rad-
cliffe on April 30 and May 1, learned
that. the colleges face similar prob-
lems, of which the main one at pres-
ent is a great lack of adequate endow-
men in each and every case. Members
of the Alumnae Committee of Seven
Colleges, the representative from Bryn
Mawr being Mrs. Learned Hand of
the Board of Directors, came to Cam-
bridge so that they might find how
the undergraduates could further the
work of. the Committee. This Com-
mittee was appointed by the presi-
dents of the above named six colleges
and Vassar, and they were charged
with the task of making the world
conscious that the women’s colleges
need “parity” with the men’s colleges
in gifts and bequests. The specific
major needs of each of the seven col-
leges were outlined and in the listing
of them one great fact stood out—the
lack of scholarship endowment. Be-
low are listed the figures for schol-
arship needs as given by the Alum-
nae Committee and which they have
asked the undergraduates who met
with them to help make known:

Barnard—$1,000,000 for a scholar-
ship fund.

Bryn Mawr—$1,000,000 for under-
graduate scholarships and loan fund
and for. graduate and research fel-
lowships.

Mount Holyoke—$800,000 for schol-
arships and fellowships and depart-
mental chairs.

Radcliffe — $1,000,000 for scholar-
ships and graduate fellowships.

Smith—$1,500,000 endowment for
scholarships.

Varsity Tennis Squad
Losts to Vassar 3-2



Opponents Played Steady Game
Characterized by Long
Volleys



BACKHAND SHOTS WIN



On a perfectly cloudless day—and,
remarkably enough, one without wind
or dust, Vassar beat the Varsity ten-
nis team by the score, 3-2. The Vas-
star team as a whole seemed to play
a much steadier game than. the Bryn
Mawr team; their forte being long
volleys and backhand drives. :

In the number one match, Haskell,
off her game and tired out by the
long volleying, was unable to flatten
her drives. Her smashes, an attempt
to speed the game up, too; often went
into the net. After a four love start
in Richard’s favor, Haskell. finally
got into form for one game, but lost
the set to Richards’ greater ease and
steadiness of playing. A long drawn-
out set followed, with each winning

‘her own serve, and Haskell came out

on top of a 7-5 score. In the third
set, Richard’s game, through. accur-

acy and_ steadiness rather ‘than
strength, overcame Haskell’s supe-
rior form.

In the second match, which was
the most interesting to watch, Boy-
den topped Faeth — again through
steadier playing. Faeth was in ex-
cellent form, her shots neatly placed
at her opponent’s feet, and her serves
extremely effective. Boyden’s form
was beautiful, but she seemed to lack
force. Her greatest difficulty was in
overcoming Faeth’s net smashes, but
having gradually worn her opponent
out, she won the first set 6-4. In the
second set, Faeth settled down to win
the set on her smashes and serve, 7-5.
Losing her strength, she dropped the

Dedication

It has been the custom for.some years to dedicate the Commencement
issue of the News to the -members-ofthe-graduating class, This year the
News is departing from that tradition to dedicate this issue to the parents
of the members of the class of 1932. We feel that amid all the fanfare and
pageantry of the exercises of this occasion it is only fitting that some notice
and tribute should be given:those who have stood behind the graduates of

“today during their four years and now sit in the auditorium as members of
the audience. How important has been their work toward the degrees theit
daughters are receiving only their daughters know. Some of them have
. made every possible financial sacrifice to give their children the opportunities
that four years at Bryn Mawr can offer. All of them have spent time and
immeasurable care on the problems that have arisen and perplexed their
daughters during their college careers, and how great~an assistance they
have been in meeting those problems even they themselves, perhaps, do not
realize.

Many of us would never have got as far as the forbidding gates of
this temple of learning, without the steady and active enthusiasm of our
families. The seemingly insuperable difficulties of entrance requirements
are made bearable often only by the knowledge that one’s family thinks one
can make the grade, and even more important, that they are counting on

Lone. The difficulties of the first year are famous. Both the faculty and the
administration make every effort to assist the student during this period of
readjustment, but despite their efforts there are many who go home at the
first vacation believing that college has beaten them, and firmly decided to
give up the battle. It is to be noted, however, that practically never ‘do
these students really stay home. Sometimes they are sent firmly back by
dictatorial parents; sometimes cajoled , into feturning by indulgent ones;
sometimes reasoned into the proper frame of mind and left to-decide for
themselves. But almost always they do come back. . The small percentage
of any freshman class that does not graduate at the end of four years is the
greatest possible tribute to the work of the parents of Bryn Mawr students,
which may well be called the problem of the maintenance of the morale.

It is the graduate who marches in cap and gown today, and we would

be the last to take the least part of her glory from her, but we should like
to point out that there are those in the audience who have given invaluable
service toward the attainment of the degrees which are to be presented.
Commencement may be said to belong to the graduate, but surely the degree
is the achievement of a corporation, mother, father, and student, limited.



An Appeal

At a recent conference of women’s colleges in which scholarship needs
were discussed, Bryn Mawr reported a need of one million dollars for under-
graduate, graduate, and research scholarships, and the loan fund. This is a
time when few philanthropists can give one million dollars to any cause. We
cannot expect a fairy godmother to solve the problem at one stroke, but
surely we may hope that some further provision may be made to tide the
college over the next few years.

The terrible strain under which the country is struggling is known to
everyone, but this is hardly a good time to lower the number of students in
our colleges. In the dreadful confusion of the modern world we stand in
dire need of trained minds and sound outlooks: people who understand
’ what is going on, who are fitted to pny acti and constructive parts in

affairs of the day, and who have a good sense of values. We need, in other

words, more widespread higher education, more well-prepared college gradu-

ates. It is well known that the best students are often least able to pay for

their education. If the scholarship students must be dropped for lack. of
- funds, the student body will lose some of its ablest- mem!

Next year twenty students cannot return to college unless some pro-
vision is made for them during the summer. The available.funds have been
stretched to the limit. In normal times the administration gives aid to one
student out of seven, but the scholarship applications of this spring show
one out of every three that need assistance. Only a miracle of
financing has enabled us to’ give the scholarships we have. Student
organizations have contributed to the loan fund, and some new scholarships

been ‘instituted; we have done all that we can. If anything is to be
the twenty girls for whom we have not been able to provide, our
and friends,

already very generous, must do it, and it is the great
all who are close to the problem that some oe eo



WIT’s END







The Mad Hatter. having attended

‘one or two baccalaureates in his short

career has very definite ideas as to
what ought to be said to the clear-
eyed younger generation as they sally
forth to conquer and clean-up the
world. After all, the thing you’ve
got to face is life, and it’s life “my
young friends that I am going to
speak about to you for a few mo-
ments today.”

LIFE

Now the world is just a bubble, don’t
you know,

Full of trial and of trouble, don’t
you know..

We come to earth to ery,

We get born and start to sigh,

We get married, then we die, don’t
you know-

Now business, aw that’s trade, don’t
you know;

Something lost or something made,
don’t you. know.

You worry and you mope,

And you hang your highest hope

On perhaps the price of Hap, don’t
you know.

Fashion, aw that’s dri, don’t you
know.

The cause of much distress, don’t you
know.

To determine what to wear,

.When and how to part your hair,

And who really will be there, don’t
you know...

Love, you meet a girl, don’t you know,

And you get-in such a whirl, don’t
you know.

You get down upon the floor

To adore and to implore,

And it’s such a horrid bore, don’t you
know.

And there’s really nothing in it, don’t
you know,

For you live but just a minute, don’t

_ you know. .

You can only wear one tie,

And one eye-glass in your eye.

And one coffin when you die, don’t
you know.



I’ve heard your points, Polonius,
Thanks for them true, true words.
To youth it’s still erroneous,
Go tell it to the birds.

About one thing we’re not at all

sure:
Do we need more human. culture?
And, best of all, to my elation,,.
No one agrées’on Education.

When with sheepskin you retire
To this punch-drunk, world of. ours,
Soon you’ll wonder who will hire
Girls who lived in ivy towers.
Soon you’ll worry whether maybe
All this culture’s not the bunk,
And why your Mother’s female baby
Here was sent to learn such junk.
While those “others” keep on wailing
As they fight on for their knowl-
edge,
“Gee, those gals must have smooth
sailing
When they’re stamped by Bryn
Mawr College.”
—The Emew.



UNGRACIOUS

My seat in the lib

Is under the nose

Of an elderly gentleman
With oh! what a pose—

So stern and forbidding;

He seems to say

You dare not frivil

Your time away!

The other three portraits
(Each a Bryn Mawr founder)
Remind that continued sloth -
Makes one’s figure rounder. —
But when I’m working,
These inspiring mentors
Cause frequent interruptions

.To my research on dissentors.

For on sightseeing journeys
All devotees of learning
Pay them homage by my desk,
And no humble posture spurning,
Stoop to read the founder’s name;
Admire the benign and kind -
Expression and whisper
(While I’m trying hard to grind)
‘That with founders.such.
As these,.no wonder | |
Standards of work ,;



| Are not suffered to.fall lower. —

Yes! the sentiment is just
But another year.

I’ll choose a desk

To the founders not so near.

And with the following choice lit-
tle bit from the song repertoire of
Rosemary Hall where, as in most of
the schools in the vicinity some mis-
guided souls are struggling just as
hard to get into Bryn Mawr as we
are to get out—we close, for ‘the
summer.

NIGHTMARE

I arise from dreams of thee,

Oh Bryn Mawr, my beacon light,
Many visions strange to see

Hovered ’round my bed last. night.
T heard Virgil spouting Greek,

“ Great Caesar strove with pi,
Solon brandishing a cleek,

Drove C. Smith across the sky.

On the gloomy “Asse’s” bridge,
Lady Macbeth lingered late;
Some quadratic passerby
Hurled an angle at her. pate.
She fainted, shreiked and fled,
German script pursued her fast,
With a megaphone that ‘said:
“That young woman ~ has
passed.”

Movies of May Day Shown
Including Colored Film

a a

Monday night in the Music Room,
Mr. Willoughby exhibited several
thousand feet of May Day film, part
by amateur, part’ by professional
photographers. May Day remains
for most of us a brilliant whirl of ac-
tion and colour, in which the small
details left more impression than the
more important. However the movies
remedied this confusion by giving an
objective slant on ithe larger events
of the day, especially the procession.

Aside from the interest of watching
ourselves moving in procession around
the green, welcoming the queen, and
then hoisting the maypole, there was
beauty in the film itself, in the light
and shadow and stir on the green.
Even in the films made by amateurs
this beauty was apparent, though fre-
quently marred by the intrusion into
the camera’s eye of a hat, hand, or
elbow. All of the movies had shots
of the: procession and the tumblers,
whose easy professionalism shows up
to great advantage, making clear why
the indignant old lady in the grand-
stand remarked that, “It certainly is
a pity to destroy the amateur spirit

}of May. Dayby bringing in profes-

sionals.”
The films of Mr. Willoughby, Miss

| Rasch, and Miss McCurdy (who made
a eolor film) were-all exceptionally

well-done, but the four hundred feet
made by Williams, Brown,Earle & Co.
is the best’ cut and fitted together.
Beginning with titles, it follows
through the procession, the entrance
of Queen Elizabeth, the crowing of
the May Queen, and tumbling on the
green, with shots from Robin Hood
included. For anyone who wishes to
have a supplement for her memories
of May Day this film is invaluable.

N. B.—It may be viewed at Wil-
liams, Brown, Earle, & Co. at 9th
and Chestnut sts. the whole film,
slightly less than 400 feet is being
sold for twenty dollars.



Harvard’s psychology clinic has is-
‘sued a request that all dreams con-
cerning the kidnapping of the Lind-
bergh baby be reported to it. The
Cambridge . psychologists state that
they have no hope of solving the mys-
tery of dream analysis. They only
plan to add to the data on nocturnal
phenomena.— (NSFA.)

LETTERS =?

To the Editor of the College News: |

I should: like to put before you
some facts about the scholarships sit-
uation for next year, which are pain-
fully apparent to us of the Alumnae
Scholarships Committee, and which
touch the undergraduates very close-
ly. There were 89 applications for
scholarships and grants this spring,
as compared to 65 last year; and
there is less money than usual to dis-
tribute in scholarships, grants and
loans. In consequence, 20 applicants
are receiving no help for next year,
except the $100 remission of tuition
in some cases. Of these students
there are at least 17 with records so
good that it would be a great loss to
the College if they could not return.
srhey would be greatly missed as in-
dividuals, as many of them play an
important part in undergraduate life.
The remedy for the situation, as we
see it, is the raising of a sum of
money to be held as a flexible fund,
administered by the Dean’s Office, and
used for grants or loans to students
in need of extra financial assistance.
The minimum necessary to help the
20 students is $3500; $5000 . would
scarcely cover the needs which are
likely to arise in the coutse of the
next year. It seems vitally important
that this fund be started, so that the
20 students and others who may ap-
peal later may be assured that they
will be able to stay in College next
year.

Faculty Are Victors
in Tennis Match 6-0



Varsity’s Improvement in Dou-
bles Offers Faculty
Stiffer Game

BOWDITCH IS. CAPTAIN





The faculty swamped the Varsity
team by a score of 6-0 in a splendid
match attended by numerous under-
graduates. Mr. Warburg’s game
was tricky, his serves hard and twist-
ing, and although Haskell played an
excellent game, she lost, 6-3, 6-1.

Mr. King won his match with non-
chalant ease. Faeth, playing her usual
pretty game, was unable to hold her
own against Mr. King’s serves and

drives, and so lost the match, 7-5, 6-2.

Dr. Blanchard won over Harden-
bergh by a score of 6-2, 6-3, his long
flat and powerful serves often aces,
and his drives fast and well placed.
Hardenbergh; however, placed her
balls very neatly, often winning a
deuce game in this way.

Bowditch’s seemed nothing when
she met Dr. Richtmeyer’s unique
serve. Much faster on his feet, he
outplayed her 6-0, 6-3, in a hard-
fought match. :

The doubles were more favorable,

' |the Varsity winning one of the sets

in’ each match. Mr. Warburg and
Mr. King were excellent partners
against Faeth and Haskell—beating
them by a score of 6-3, 4-6, 6-2. In
the second doubles, Dr. Cadbury and
Dr. Blanchard completely outclassed
Hardenbergh and Bowditch — their
steady and forceful drives winning
the match, 6-1, 5-7, 6-1.

The following is a summary of
the season:

At a recent meeting of the Varsity
squad, Bowditch was chosen as cap-
tain for the 1932-33 season. The fol-
lowing is the team for 1931-32:

1—Haskell.

2—Faeth.

3—Hardenbergh.

4—Bowditch.

Alternate—Little.



The University of Oklahoma is co-
operating with the merchants. of. the

credits for the next semester from
students who owe bills to the mer-
chants. There is a tota] debt of some

Anticipating the annual Freshman
night, the president of Washington
and Lee enumerated the following ac-
tions as lawful:—to build a bonfire,
to paint the statue of Washington,
to paint the class numerals on the
sidewalks and to see two shows free.

Was it a test of the Freshmien’s in-|
‘genuity?—Swarththore Phoeniz.

Stresses Need of Church .for
Intelligent Christian
Activity

OUR DUTY IS TO WORK

The Reverend Arthur Lee Kinsol-
ving, Rector of Trinity Church, Bos-
ton, gave the baccalaureate address
on Sunday evening, May 29, taking
as his subject the great need for in-
telligent Christians in the church to-
day, and our duty toward the ful-
fillment of that need. We need an
incentive to spur us on to Christian
activity; it is essential that we link
our lives with the source of strong
character, the spirit of Christ, that,
inspired by it, we may show our will-







ingness to act. *

The leper that came to Jesus Christ
pleaded for help, “If thou wilt thou
canst make me clean,” and Jesus an-
swered, “I will; be thou clean.” We
must learn-to-say “Iwill” when the
world asks. In contemplating our
past we are dissatisfied -with~ our-

selves and hope for a better future. |“;

To achieve anything we must seek
the source from which men and wom-
en have derived the inspiration that
“has strengthened their characters and
aided them to fulfill wets: purpose in
life.

Everywhere there are the masses
of unemployed asking for help, “If
thou wilt, thou eanst.”* We must re-
spond to their’ plea, and it is for us
to decide to“what extent. This same
problem eonfronts us socially as well
as ecohomically. There. are our
friends and relatives who may have
lost their chart of life and have gone
astray. It is our duty to be the
means of their recovering their grip
on life. .We must not be spiritually
unemployed; it is necessary for us to

he linked with a cause which will

_|give moral certainty and incentive.

The church has an ‘abundance of
unintelligent Christians of a simple
and undistinguished character, but it
necds the aid ‘which can come from —
Christians of really high intelligence.
“The opportunities are tremendous
in the community to live as intelli-
gent Christians who care,’’’

The need of the world today is
closely analogous to that of the leper
who came to Christ for assistance.

With the spirit of Christ let us give

ourselves to fulfilling’ our purpose.
“There are two ways of life, and be-
tween them the difference is very
great.”

TRAINING IS VALUABLE









(Especially Contributed by Rebecca
Wood, 1933)

There has been much discussion
this year about May Day; around
Christmas it was the depression; then
it was the sacrifice of academic work;
during the rehearsing it was over-
work, and now that. it’s all over some
people are wondering whether it was
all worth while: I think the answer
of the students is Yes—there may be
one or two dissenters, but at a meet-
ing -of the Undergraduate Associa-
tion on May 25th the resolution was
unanimously passed: “That May Day
. this year was a success from the stu-
dents’ point of view, worth the effort
of production and even the loss in
academic work; that it is a tradition
worth keeping, and that it be recom-
_.mended to the Undergraduate body
present in 1936.”

I think that the recommendation of
the students was based on more con-
siderations than just the lure of giv-
ing May Day, and the enthusiasm
resurrected (even during exams) by
the May Day movies. In spite of
complaints and numerous rehearsals
and crowded work, there were many
who. admitted even enjoying the early
morning air at eight o’elock, folk
dancing, and the friendly conversa-
tional: atmosphere engendered in the
smoking rooms over the creation. of
the perfect paper rose. There were
many new personalities discovered,
and latent talents divulged, lights
which had hitherto been hidden under
the bushel of routine work; and it
was good for a body of several hun-
dred students to have to adapt them-
selves suddenly to a more hectic mode

of life, and a higher keyed pitch of |

activity than the ordinary college

routine. At least few could complain
of an _ uneventful existence this
spring. *

Not only did the students enjoy
May Day, but if outside reports and
letters are true, our audience ‘seems
to- have felt its afternoons of May
6th and 7th well spent.

. Besides the satisfaction of aiding
the college itself, the students must
feel some reaction of pleasure at hav-.
ing assisted the community in a year
of depression, by giving jobs to many
unemployed. and. competent people;
and this with no actual loss to the
college since our gate receipts did
carry over our expenditures.

The most serious complaint of the
students was not the depression, but
the academic work; and the Under-
graduate body feels itself safe in rec-
ommending another and many more
May Days, chiefly with the under-
standing that the college year be ex-
tended several days or a week in May
Day year; to include a reading period
in most courses and the full time of
laboratory work in the _ science
courses. Also the principal casting
and committee work should be done
earlier, so as to be finished by mid-
year’s, that rehearsing may be start-
ed immediately the second semester.
With such an arrangement there
should be no danger of a jam in aca-
demic work right after Spring vaca-

“tion nor the necessity of the elimina-
tion of the last weeks’ work, such’ as
this: year’s.

But, after all, to most people, col-
lege means more than just the aca-.
demic work; every year individual

made effective use of her never-failing
backhand.. Although Campbell was
poor on her pickups’ and lacked
strength, her placing was good. Har-
denbergh, taking advantage, placed
her balls continually out of Camp-
bell’s reach. Both players’ backhands
being their strong point, the game re-
volved around them entirely. Harden-
bergh won the second set, 6-4. Wear-
ing Campbell out with her smashing
serves, Hardenbergh won the match
in the third set, 8-4.

At the beginning of the fourth
match, one could see that it would be
a battle of strength. Carpenter, how-
ever, seemed to have the accuracy
and control that Bowditch lacked and
won the first set, 6-3. Bowditch,
ecalmed- down and steadied her drives,
won the second set, 6-4. Carpenter
seemed tired in the third set, and-her
peculiar serve lost its effectiveness.
She lost the match to Bowditch, 6-4.

Although Vassar started out in the
doubles with poor team work, they
finally worked up to win, 6-3, 4-6,
10-8. Faeth and Haskell worked well
together, Faeth showing great im-
provement over her first game of the
season. Haskell played better in the

.doubles, her net returns fast and

beautifully placed. Campbell also

seemed to play much better in the.

doubles, aiding her partner material-
ly in the winning of the match and
bringing Vassar out. on top.

New York, N. Y.—This office has
learned from an article in “Opinion,”
a Journal of Jewish life and letters,
that a scholarship has been offered
by the National Democratic Students’
Union of Poland. The scholarship is
given in honor of a Polish student
killed while attacking the Jewish
Quarter in Vilna last November. The
terms of the scholarship stipulate that
it is to go to “the most vigorous fight-
er against the Jewish population.”

Is such action as this to be the an-
swer of the present generation. to the
increasing demand for fellowship,
good-will and mutual understanding?

times more impressive than any sin-
gle college activity. Certainly out of
four years of college it is worth while
somewhat crowding the academic
work of one semester, in order to
concentrate the non-academic inter-
ests of five hundred students into one
blaze of organized production.

So, for future May Days let us
adopt the philosophy of our fine
friend Joe, the night watchman, who
assured us when we were worrying
about the Weather: “Well, it’s all
up to the Almigiey and the students!”

Students. Bow to Faculty
in Fast Baseball Game



The Varsity baseball team was
completely beaten in the annual Fac-
ulty game by the score of 32-8. Two
double plays were the high-lights of
the game. In the fourth inning Miss
Brady, catching a fly from Dr.
Blanchard; threw to Gerhard on
third base, who caught Dr... Watson
before he could touch the bag. In
the fifthsinning the bases were full
and Miss Brady up at bat. Her fly

to the right fielder was neatly picked
up by Dr. Wells and thrown to second
and third, thus putting out Engle and
Gerhard. Mr. King knocked the
only three-bagger of the whole game.

The pitching on both teams could
have been more controlled and vari-
ed, but considering everything—the
batteries of both teams were excel-
lent, as was the game itself.

So

“Electra” is Produced
With Modern Staging
Source of O’Neill’s Play Loses

Through Modern
Adaptation









q



* That the Old may shine only in re-.
flected light is one of those brute
facts we Lovers of the Classics are
sometimes obliged to face; it cannot
be mere coincidence that Sophocles’
. Electra has appeared both in New
York and Philadelphia during the run
of Mr. O’Neill’s Oresteia. For those
who were thrilled by our “great play-
wright’s” complex-ridden characters,
the original explanation of their ac-
tions would have all the attraction of
the quaint. And truly last Thurs-

day’s production at the Academy of

Music was well received. It must
have been disappointing, however, to
that part—a small one, I admit—of
the audience interested in Sophocles
for his own sweet self. As presented
by Mary Stewart French and the

' Philadelphia Art Alliance, even this

Electra has been put into new bottles;
the chorus has been eliminated, its

' duties delegated to two confidantes of

Electra. Fortunately one of these
was Katherine Hepburn, who, as a

’ graduate of Bryn Mawr in 1928, has

“
.

ee

just played the leading feminine role
in the Warrior’s Husband. Miss Hep-
burn made a very sympathetic at-
tendant and her voice is extraordi-
narily clear. It is a pity that the
beauties of the Greek text cannot be
translated. into English, but, though
not particularly distinguished, there
was nothing disturbing in Mr. Shep-
perd’s translation. ;
The reduction of the chorus is per-
haps a necessary economy. It seems
to us, however, that the budget could
have been better adjusted. Less lav-
ish, the costumes would have been im-
proved, and perhaps even the acting.
Had Janet Beecher been more simply
clad she might have remembered that
queens, especially when they appear
in-.Greek tragedy, have a Certain
amount of dignity, and she might
not .have made Clytemnestra storm
and wrangle like an infuriated wash-
woman. Dignity is a quality which
was lacking also in Blanche Yurka’s
interpretation of Electra. When a
heroine speaks continually in a sob-
choked voice, drapes herself mourn-
fully on the furniture—in this case
it was a wall—and is constantly fall-
ing to the ground in an excess of de-
spair,. we have difficulty in imagin-
ing that she is really capable of slay-
ing her mother. And though her
passionate gnashing of teeth is at
first very moving, at length it. be-
comes monotonous. We wish ‘that
Miss Yurka had shown us more of
the Electra who greets Aegisthus at
the door of the palace in which her
mother—his wife—lies murdered. Her
eyes narrowed to slits, her voice fill-
ed with suppressed triumph, she was
superb in the might of her vengeance.
With Aegisthus we have no fault to
find. McKay Morris, in his brief ap-

pearance, created an impression of

strength and belligerency. As Ores-
tes Rollo Peters, an excellent Peter
Ibbetson, was miScast. Electra’s sis-
ter was a’nice, if over-dressed, school
girl, and the Old Man, unusually agile
for his age, somewhat of a Shakes-
pearean actor. As a matter of fact
the scene was the one thing which
escaped “adaptation”; the palace with
its portals and steps was unquali-
fiedly successful.

But we can hear the voices of
O’Neill addicts—“if the play drags
now when it’s pepped up, what would
it be in its original state?” Person-
ally -I think it would be a great deal
ail to see why the situa-
tion of a ‘woman, who, obeying the
laws of kinship—they need not neces-
sarily be written—and the dictates of
her own heart—avenges the murder

of her father, even though it be on].

her own mother, is not of everlasting
interest, at least as much so as a
woman who avenges her father from
jealousy — she is in love with her

Ari what, I wonder, could be better
“thsatre” than Electra’s call to Cly-
temnestra, already dead, at the bid-
ding of the unsuspecting Aegisthus?

And even did ore not feel for the
characters, their” grandeur if faith-

accdunts for the apparent boredom
of the speeches, which otherwise,
seeming quite proper, might hold the
interest even of a modern audience.

Moreover, in last Thursday’s produc-

tion there seemed to be little coordi-
nation among the actors; I never felt
for a minute that Clytemnestra was
at all interested in Electra, or that
they were even really speaking to one
another. If for no other reason. we
should not pass final judgment on
Sophocles from this presentation. The
spirit was willing but the flesh—oh,
the temptation to modernize — was
weak.—L. C,

' It was pointed out at the Radcliffe
conference that if every graduate of

leave her college some sum, even a
small one, the problem would be
solved. :

Those at the conference were roy-
ally entertained. The first’ meeting
took place after a delightful luncheon
on the terrace at Bertram Hall. Af-
ter the meeting the conference mem-
bers went to “Craige House,” where
Mr. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Dana showed them over the historic
house and gardens and gave them tea.
In the evening, Dean Brown, of Rad-
cliffe, invited the undergraduates to
supper and all were taken to the the-
atre. Sunday a final luncheon was
held in Bertram, after which the
meeting broke up. All the members
of the conference appreciated the very
kind hospitality of Radcliffe; and
found the discussions very valuable.

Faculty Member Gives
Opinion of May Day

Suggests It be Abolished or
Simplified and Semester
Lengthened

IS EXCUSE FROM WORK





(Specially Contributed by Dr.
Robbins)
My dear Editor—

‘Only your direct invitation could
induce mé—an alien in Bryn Mawr’s
| midst—to offer any criticism of May
Day, or any suggestions about its fu-
ture. May Day was an unforgettable
spectacle, and any ungraciousness in
the notes into which I have cast the
following reflections must not blind
you to my keen sense of the self-sac-
rifice and managing genius of Mrs.
Collins and the administration gen-
erally, | nor to my realization of the
temerity of anyone without personal
experience of student and adminis-
trative: difficulties who would offer
remedies for them.

There are two questions which a
newcomer asks about May Day: why
it is given and how it is fitted into
the college curriculum and the col-
lege budget. I propose to list some
of the answers I have received, and
some of my reactions to them, and
then to conclude with the possible re-
visions of May Day, as I myself see
them, and our attitude toward it.

To the first question of “Why,” the
reply is threefold: May Day gives
publicity to the college; it affords us
all a thing of beauty; it induces cor-
porate spirit and all the virtues that
are said to go with that indefinable
thing in the student body. With the
first two parts of the answer I would
not quarrel, but with the last I am
distinctly at variance. I have not yet
met the shy student who was “brought
out,” mor has the corporate spirit
seemed very powerful to an outsider
when rumors of penalties for non-at-
tendance at rehearsals reach her, and
the growing chorus of “What a bore
all these rehearsals are!” stultifies our
daily conversation; when Mrs. Col-
lins’ fight talks are necessary, when
reiterated appeals have to be made

But, you may say, such are in-
evitable, look at the teamwork neces-
sary for the play productions and so

forth. Again I am blind, for I do
not see that individual performers,

| with certain notable exceptions, ever

used the opportunity to study, as only
amateurs on ‘their own_territory may,
the mechanics of play production, the
reasons for standing here rather than
there, the possibilities of this or that
change in the tradition. If corporate
spirit must be forced on: the college,
then May Day seems an expensive
and not wholly successful way of do-
ing it.

There is another answer to this
question of “why,” which curiously
enough was not made to me, that May
Day affords an énchanting glimpse
of Jacobean England, and to this Eng-
lishwoman, at least, May Day in
Bryn Mawr has suffered a very flat-
tering sea-change.

To the second question, How is
Bryn Mawr fitted into the college pro-
gram and budget? the reply seemed
simple, but to me—after the event—
inaccurate. About the provisions for
expense I am, of course, incompetent
to judge. Many have made sacrifices,
some of. which were unnecessary. It
seems to many Alumnae I have talk-
ed with that the cost of May Day. has
grown disproportionate to its status

will list a few of the sways other peo-
ple have suggested of curtailing the
expense. But it is about the question
of time that I am anxious to write.

Faculty Member Gives...
Opinion of May Day

(Continued from Page Seven)



May Day fitted pretty well into our
curriculum. I suppose I should say
our “crowded curriculum — so that
those students (of whom there seem
to be more here than anywhere else
ho. suffer from
“chronic inertia” and other troubles
brought on by the faculty’s demand
that they occasionally read books by
themselves,*and by other equally ri-
diculous demands—these students can-
not cavil at what I say here. In
parenthesis let me say that, by one
of those pleasant compensatory acts
which Providence sometimes vouch-
safes us, Bryn Mawr also has per-
haps more intelligent and more good-
looking students.on the average than
any English college which I know.
Those who are without sin, then, must
bear whilst I complain of the. other
and smaller portion. The statement
that May Day, with the exceptions
mentioned, does not. upset the crowd-
éd schedule is inaccurate. Please note

‘that I do not qualify this statement.

As early as March, students whose
only part was in the folk-dancing,
were giving May Day as an excuse
for late reports, bad quizzes, et cet-
era, and the volume of complaints
grew till that last disgraceful week
before exams when reluctant permis-
sion was given for still further work
to be excused or rearranged. -, Yeu
may say it is inhuman to expect that
rehearsals should not take time or
energy—but no one does expect ‘that
—only that, when May Day is volun-
tarily voted. by the student body, that
body should tighten its belt and pre-
pare for'a little discomfort and some
self-denial. Instead, the way taken
seems to be to throw away some of
the values which the sacrifices of par-
ents and college benefactors make
possible—and, for some of the stu-
dents, a few of the last hours they
will ever: have to spend in directed
academic work. This may sound ex-
aggerated, but these students came
here at great expense, and presum-
ably to get something they could not
get elsewhere, and to lose so much
of one semester of that, the main ob-
ject, afterall, of all colleges the world
over, seems to me, at least, waste-
ful, ungrateful and wanton. On the
whole, too, most of the students vocal
about. their woes were students who
were not the most implicated, or with
the most’ responsibility, academic or
otherwise. I can think of--two stu-
dents holding important undergradu-
ate positions whose work did not suf-
fer, who never gave anything in late,
and who told me that they had man-
aged to fit things in pretty well: I
would urge more of the Balaclava
spirit in the Bryn Mawr students. But
whilst many people feel, and rightly,
I think, that undue grumbling and
evasion went on, no one of them
would deny that May Day itself is
partly responsible. It has grown so
large, and so elaborate, that some-
thing must be changed if it is to con-
tinue a Bryn Mawr tradition. People
were hard pressed, and the slightly
unsympathetic attitude induced by too
many criers of “Wolf, Wolf!” must
not blind us to that.

This brings me in conclusion to
what seem to me the possible reme-
dies :—

1—May Day can be abolished;

2—or, and this I would strongly
advocate, some time be added to the
semester in which May Day occurs;

3—or, though this Or might be and
—a smaller performance might be
attempted, with more imagination and
fewer wigs and professions. I would
duplicate the Green performance and

cut one or two plays, which cannot, |

in any case, be seen by anyone with-
out Seven League Boots all in one hot
afternoon. I would back any Bryn
Mawr band against the imported
product. All the animals are lovely,
but how expensive! However, details
are not important; the pith of this
suggestion lies in the statement that
May Day was an amateur perform-
ance and should be reduced once more
to that status.

TUNE IN ON LUCKY STRIKE—60



Lucky Strike

Is this

question too
revealing —
for other cigarettes?

WW. do not criticize others. We merely
call your attention to the fact that the

vital subject of inhaling has been generally
avoided in cigarette advertising.

Why? What’s there to be afraid of? Every-
body inhales! Seven out of ten smokers inhale
knowingly—the other three do so without
realizing.it. From your side—you want to be
sure that the smoke you breathe in is pure
and clean—free from certain impurities.

But from.the manufacturer's side—he
should: be sure of giving you this protection.
And if he is sure—he need not worry about
the question: “Do you inhale?”

has dared to raise this vital °

question ... because certain impurities con-
cealed in even the finest, mildest tobacco
leaves are removed by Luckies’ famous puri-
fying process. Luckies created that process.
Only Luckies have it!
