THE COLLEGE NEWS
_ Faculty Names J. Dulebohn and F, Newihan :

/ Newman Enlisted in WAVES; |
Dulebohn Will Do Further
History Work
The first alternate to the Euro-
a History major. Florence New-
man, presented by the English. de-
partment, was named second alter-
nate. ’
Jean Dulebohn divided her ma-
She worked with
the Latin Department as well as|
with the History Department. The |
jor in two fields.
“ Gombined efforts produced a paper |
on the development of the ideal of |
the ruler from the Roman |
the Carolingian Empires based on| |
Latin primary sources. |
After a summer of relaxation in
a victory garden,~Jean plans to
continue the study of medieval
civilization at Harvard or the
Princeton Institute of Advanced
Study with Dr. E. A. Lowe. She |
might get a job in an office for a'|
year before going on to graduate
work. Although a position with
the O. W. I. or a magazine has
some attraction for her, she also
has a strong inclination towards
the law.
Coming from Minneapolis, Jean
was prepared by the St. Mary’s
Hall, Faribault, Minnesota. At
Bryn Mawr she has held the
Rhoads and Amelia’ Richards
scholarships.. “One of the main
reasons I came to Bryn Mawr was
to go abroad my Junior year—I
still hope to get there,” she said. |
The visiting of friends on a ranch |
in Wyoming is a _ substitute for |
Europe at the present. |
Florence Newman is one of the |
first of the graduating class to be
inducted into the WAVES. She
probably will not be able to find
immediate application of her hon-
ors paper on Elizabethan drama,
but after the war she will either
work in play production or in ad-
vertising.
The course given in drama at
Yale interests her very much, and
she would like to get her M.A.
there. She has already taken a
summer course in advertising at
Columbia.
A graduate of the Philadelphia
High School for Girls, Florence
has spent a great deal of her non-
resident college life on the Paoli
Local. Swimmirtg and bridge are
her favorite hobbies, and she un-
doubtedly has aided in the intro-
duction of that evil ‘influence, a
pack of cards, to the non-resident
room. ;
The Red Cross occgpies her ex-
tra-curricular time’® Starting as |
a stenographer, she now works in,
an “emergency” department which !
is concerned with the sending of ;
charges from the services.

Gracious Inspiration was written |
by a member of the class of 1895 |
and Pallas Athene by a member
of 1893. Their weekend, which
included luncheons, picnics, meet-
ings, a dedication, breakfast with
Miss McBride, was highlighted by
an address by Professor Charles
Andrews, the one surviving faculty
member at Bryn Mawr from 1889-
1907, and a Pulitzer Prize winner.
A few of them wonder if they will
survive it all.

mer. Miss Lanman will give the
Analytic Chemistry course for the
Engineering, Science, and Man-
agement War Training division of
the U. 8: 0. EB.
Other activities on campus this
summer include the nursing course,
of which Miss Yaeger will be asso-
ciate administrator, and will be in
charge of the nurses’ recreation.
Miss Kraus will hold her course in
International Relief Administra-
tion here and work on a book. If
the demand is sufficient Mr. and
Mrs. Diez will give a seven-week
course in'elementary German.
Several faculty will be in the
vicinity of Bryn Mawr from pref-
erence or due to gas rationing re-
strictions. Miss Gardiner is stay-
ing here to work in her victory
garden, the Bryn Mawr Hospital,
and the Interceptor Command. Mr.
Broughton will be here also, com-
piling a list of Roman Magis-
trates; Mr. Patterson will be doing
research work on his own. Mr.
Sprague will also stay here most
of the summer finishing his book
on the stage business of Shake-
spearean actors.
Mr. Nahm is polishing his book
on aesthetics which will be pub-
lished by Harpers this summer,
and Mr. Miller’s book, which is the
August Book-of-the-Club selection,
will come out in July. Mr. Velt-
man will complete his book on
Systematic Historical Study.
Mr. MacKinnon plans to go to
his blueberry farm in Maine as
soon as he has finished his present
book. Mr. Weiss also plans to
farm in New England and to finish
his book on ethics. In addition he
will lecture to a group of French
scholars, Les Entretiens de Pon- |,
tigny, at Mt. Holyoke, and be
present at a conference on Science,
Philosophy and Religion, of which
he is a founding member.
Mr. Chew has been appointed
research associate at Huntington
Library, San Marino, California,
where he will investigate problems
in Elizabethan Literature, which
he has previously worked on there.
Some of the faculty plans are
naturally of a secret nature in re-
| gard to the war, and many others
have tentative plans for equally
interesting and valuable work dur-
ing the summer. months.

surveyed the sister sciences with
scorn. She reached the conclusion
that ‘a chemistry stink is better
than a biology stink.”
“Sports made me wiat I am to-
day,” ‘shouted Carla Adelt, beat-
ing her chest. Arrayed in a con-
glomeration of athletic equipment,
Carla recounted her trials with re-
quired sports and her four years of
walking, all due to the inefficiency
of the department. “Not many
people know,” Carla said, “that the
walk to Fords and Forrests is not
as long as people think, specially
because there is a method by
which one can float back.”
In a burlap sack and green
greasepaint, Bill Williams named
herself the missing book of T. S.
Eliot. On the Library steps, Bill
said, “The reason I never enter
the Library is that I can never find
any of the books I want”... par-
ticularly the Hygiene books. La-
menting the distressing number of
women in the senior class, the dis-
tribution of Beards, she deviated to
campus animals and the “bellicose
tendencies” exhibited by faculty
children.

Mrs. Fletcher was a student of
Greek and the classics while she
was at Bryn Mawr. After grad-
uating, she studied in Greece. She
married an Englishman, Mr.
Harry Fletcher, and lived in Eng-
land until her death. Her class
has already done much to finance
the library, and has partially fur-
nished the seminar in her name.
This dedication was part of the
celebration with which the Class
of 1893 observed its fiftieth anni-
versary. An exhibition of pictures
of Bryn Mawr from 1893 to 1900
was on display in the art lecture
room after Miss McBride’s tea-on
Saturday afternoon.
