Mayan Civilization
Was Most Brilliant
Of Early Americans
: Sylvanus Morley Shows: Slides
In Lecture on Recent
Excavations
SPANIARDS DESTROYED
NEW EMPIRE IN 1519
Goodhart Hall, December 2.—The
early Mayans of Yucatan and Gua-
temala formed the most brilliant
aboriginal race in America, Mr. Syl-
vanus Morley: said in his talk on New
Mayan Excavations. Mr. Morley is a
world authority on the Mayan civili-
zation and has done extensive field
work in Central ‘America. His talk
was illustrated by lantern slides,
At as early a date as the beginning
of Christianity, the Mayan inhabited
Guatemala; British Honduras and
southern Mexico. In the eighth and
ninth centuries, owing to the fail-
ure of the agricultural system to
sustain the population, there was a
slow exodus from this region into
Yucatan. . The people who settled
here formed the “New Empire” as
distinct from the “Early Empire” in
Guatemala and Honduras. The “New
Empire” was broken up by the arrival
of the Spaniards in 1519, and for
several centuries the country was un-
der Spanish rule. After a series of
revolts, it at last became an indepen-
dent state. The Indian inhabitants
of today are the direct descendents of
the early Mayans and show many of
the same characteristics.
Mayan ruins are found scattered
throughout the thick Guatemalan and
Yucatan jungles, which are penetrated
only by intrepid chewing-gum makers.
It_is literally true that Central
American archaeology follows the
gum trade. One of the most import-
ant sites is Copan in Honduras, where
one-third of the hieroglyphs known to
date were discovered. Copan has the
largest archaeological cross-section in
the world. It stood on a river which,
after the abandonment of the city in
the eighth or ninth century, changed
its course, leaving the successive
levels of the city open to the arch-
aeologist.
At Uxmal, an important town of
the New Mayan Empire, stands the
finest building ever erected by Ameri-
can Indians. Called the “Governor’s
House,” it is 312 feet in length and
surmounts three terraces, the bottom
one of which covers five acres. The
facade is divided into two parts by a
medial cornice, and the upper half,

Under the auspices of the Depart-
ment of Economics and Politics, Dr.
Thomas Reed Powell is to give a lec-
ture on The Constitutional Problems
of Roasevelt’s Second Term. The lec-
ture will be on Wednesday, December
16, at 2 p. m., in Room F, Taylor
Hall. Faculty and students who are
free at 2 o’clock are invited to attend.
The lecture is also open to the public.
Dr. Powell was formerly Ruggles
Professor of Constitutional Law at
Columbia University. Since 1925 he
has been on the faculty of the Har-
vard Law School, where he is Lang-
dell Professor of Law. He is the au-
thor of The Separation of Powers, In-
direct Encroachment on Federal Au-
thority by the Taxing Power of the
States and The Supreme Court, and
State Police Force. In addition, he
has contributed numerous articles to
political science, legal and _ other
periodicals.
Mr. Woolman Uses Movies to Describe
Horseshoe Trail for Riding and Hiking
Common Room, December 7.—Stu-
dents and faculty interested in hiking
and riding heard.Mr. Henry Wool-
man speak on the Horseshoe Trail and
saw colored movies to illustrate the
speech. The trail, which extends
from Valley Forge to Manada Gap,
was founded by Mr. Woolman and his
: friends, and is, as its name indicates,
primarily designed for riding. It is
equally well suited to hiking and
Youth hostels along the way offer
shelter for over night.
Mr. Woolman first thought of build-
ing a trail near Philadelphia when he
saw part of the Appalachian Trail in
the Great Smoky Mountains some
years ago. He thought of joining up
some of the old wood-roads around
Valley Forge to make a long: bridle-
path from there to the mountains.
When Mr. Woolman heard of the
Youth Hostels, started in. this country
by Mr. and Mrs. Monroe Smith, he in-
vited them to inspect the trail. The
Smiths agreed to let him start a chain
of hostels along the Horseshoe Trail,
There are now five of these, one about
every 15 miles, starting at Valley
Forge from Mr. Woolman’s lovely |
farm, “Cressbrook.” The committee
is anxious to found more hostels so
that they will be closer together and
better suited to hiking.
Until after the first of the year, it
will not be necessary to have a Youth
Hostel pass to stay in these hostels.
The Bryn Mawr Outing Club may ob-
tain a group pass for five dollars to be
used by different groups of 15 people.
A single pass for anyone under 25
costs one dollar a year, and will ad-
mit her to any hostel in this country.
Besides the pass, hostelers should take
a sleeping sack of sheeting and a mess
kit. Blankets and heavy cooking uten-
sils are provided at each hostel. It
is well to telephone or write ahead to
the hostel-parents, especially if food
is desired.
low horseshoes nailed or painted on

Loose Organization
Is Cause of Strike
John Smith, Sailor, Tells A.S.U.
Of Corruption Within Union,
Cut in Wages
POOR SHIP CONDITIONS
Common Room, December 7.—John
Smith, a seaman on strike, explained
to members of the A. S. U. why “the
farmers are at sea and the sailors are
on shore.” A corrupt and sluggish
union, intolerable living conditions
aboard ship, cut wages, poor food and
deprivation of the right to organize,
the placing of sailors through ‘their
own “hiring halls” are the immediate
causes, he said.
Basically, however, the present
crisis is the climax of past attempts
to organize effectively. The Interna-
tional Seamen’s Union has the same
president today that it had when it
started in 1896. ‘The battles of the
men were never fought; instead, tem-
porary payments duped the members

DR. SALMONY TO SPEAK
ON ART. OF SIBERIA
Sunday, December 13, De. Alfred
Salmony will lecture in the Deanery
at 5 o’clock on The Ancient Art. of
Siberia and Its Influence on Chinese
Dr. Salmony was
Director of the Museum of Far East-
ern Art in Cologne and is now Vis-
iting Lecturer in Oriental Art at Mills
College, California. He has traveled
extensively in the Far East and is
one of the few people who .know the
museums of Siberia from having seen
them.
Dr. Salmony’s lecture will devote it-
self in part to the “animal style,”
which in ancient times dominated the
art of China, Northern Europe and
Central Siberia. Siberian art is far
more important than it sounds be-
cause, owing to Siberia’s central posi-
tion, it probably influenced China: on
the one side and the Balkans and
Western Europe on the other side.
Geographically, too, Siberia was
ideally suited for contact with other
countries. Its people could move in
the wide belt of prairies, and for this
into reconciliation. Today this union| reason their cultural relations grew
and younger organizations are being
revamped. Money matters, as well as
prodigious salaries of officials, are
being investigated under court orders.
For the first time regular elections are
being held.
The first strike occurred on the Pa-
cific coast in 1921 with the specific
purpose of breaking the union. It
was quelled, but the I. S. U. was virtu-
ally without members and the seamen
had no union until 1929, when their
wages had dropped fifty per cent. —
Then a handful of mariners initi-
ated the Mariners’ Industrial League
to guide the unorganized men. Al-
though it started with no funds or
systematized publicity, workers auto-
matically hailed it as a means of
stabilizing their working conditions.
The biggest marine strike in his-
tory was called in 1934 on the Pacific
coast. The President revoked prom-
ises of arbitration which he had ten-
dered in return for a month’s delay
on the strike. Meanwhile, terroriza-
tion of the strikers reached demoraliz-
ing proportions. Over 4000 armed
troops were called out. Ship owners
would treat with no representatives
but members of the dormant I. S. U.,
which had not even participated in the
strike and which had to call off a 1921
strike before it could declare one for
1934. Some conciliations were made,
however, and new. members cleaned
out the “phonies” in the I. S. U.
These simply migrated to the Atlantic
coast and are now being ousted.
The present strike in the East is in
support of that started in the West
last spring: Unorganized and de-
spairing of a fair deal, the first crew
that struck instructed their leader “to
call Ma Perkins from a butcher shop.
They didn’t even have enough money
to hire a hall. She told them to bring
the ship back to New York, that she
would .look out for them. They did,
but sixty-nine men were blacklisted,
deprived of a means of livelihood.”
The spring strike was the result.
Mr. Smith said that the big com-
panies which are fighting the strikers

Chairman of Self-Gov
Discusses New Rules
System of No Special Permission |
Inadvisable at Present
To the Editor of the College News:
The revision of the Self-Govern-
ment rules, which are published be-
low this letter, includes several im-
portant changes. They deal especially
with the rules for leaving the campus
after dark, permission for movies in
Philadelphia, smoking in front of Tay-
lor and radios, The rules which are
unchanged have been rewritten in a
more clear and concise form.
Nearly all of us would like to work
out some system in which no special
permission would--be—-necessary,—but
the majority of the Executive and Ad-
visory Boards feel that this cannot
be done right now. The student body
as a whole is too ignorant of what
the rules actually are. They depend
entirely upon those who give special
permission and do not take enough
responsibility upon themselves.
I d@mot think that the students are
entirely to blame for this. They have
been confused by the vagueness of the
rules and the failure of those of us
who give special permission always to
agree.
In closing, I would like to add that
the purpose of these rules, which are
made by the students themselves, is
to protect the individual student as
well as the college as a whole. Living
in a community such as this, we have
to consider our relations with each
other as well as_ with outsiders.
Therefore, the rules have to be gen-
eral and cannot take in every case
which may arise. Any. time that
a student wishes to do anything which

‘Holiday’ is Played

Critic Praises L. Crosby Lewis’
Spontaneous Interpretation
Of Ned Seton
NURSERY SCENE MOST
IMPRESSIVE OF SETS
Barry’s Holiday, as presented by
The Players’ Club of Bryn Mawr Col-
lege and The Cap and Bells Club of
Haverford College, was probably
quite different in feeling from the
original production in which Hope
Williams, boyish and brisk, took the
part of Linda. As interpreted by
Isabelle Seltzer, this central character,
upon whom rests the dramatic inter-
est of the entire play, was essentially
feminine in voice, gesture and per-
sonality. It was felt that her un-
happy, rebellious state of mind, so
sharply contrasted with the polished
assurance of her manners, came from
a sense of loneliness rather than a
realization of the uselessness and stu-
pidity of the life that she led. As
the play ends she triumphs, not in
escaping from Park Avenue, but in
following Johnny with the firm re-
solve to marry him. Although it is
improbable that this was Philip Bar-
ry’s conception of the role when he
dedicated his play to Hope Williams,
it is a perfectly reasonable interpre-
tation of the part and far more inter-
esting than a mere pastiche of the
original characterization would have
been,
As it is practically devoid of action
or of any logical sequence of events,
the play tended to drag in certain
scenes, most noticeably during the
lengthy dialogue of the last act. But
the development of Linda’s attitude
towards life gave a certain unity and
feeling of progress to the whole.
Shifting from mood to mood, Linda
changed from a bored and embittered
society girl to a vigorous and hopeful
woman in love. There was a convinc-
ing and natural sense of growth in

It is everyone’s privilege to mark up books, if that person is willing
to buy her personai copies for the purpose, but no one has the right to
destroy property whith does not belong to her alone.
It is one of the
paradoxes of college life that the books in the Library must be pro-
tected as one’s own property and used with the knowledge that they
belong to others. Not only is it a violation of state law and a
tion of community property, but it shows a gross lack of cons

different aspect of the discussion and in any event can care little what
a predecessor of such dubidus taste may have selected.
Any defense of marking books because it “helps those who follow”
is stupid and miscalculated. There is not a student or faculty member
in the college who has not at some time had to erase or abandon Rages
because they were mutilated beyond readability. Marking
passages
and margins reveals the culprit as_an_arrogant egoist with the brazen
conceit to believe that she knows enough about the subject to
others in their search for the truth.

It is safe to say that there is not

LIBRARY SUSPENSIONS
Dear Editor:
It has seemed to mé that the Col-
lege News has always stood for ac-
curacy of statement. It was, there-
fore, with surprise that I read the
‘misstatement of the situation in the
editorial about the suspension of Re-
serve Book. Room privileges on the
morning of November 30. It so hap-
pened that only those students lost
their privileges on that morning who
returned books as late as 9.10 or later.
It was impossible for the Reserve
Room attendant to’ check up on all
overdue books before that time, be-
cause of the after-holiday return of
books, which is always great. Since
our Reserve Book Room records have
not been destroyed, I herewith give a
few examples of the sort of case which
needs correction, for the benefit of the
student body as a whole, and which I
take from the records of the morning
in question. In practically all of these
instances the books were needed by
others.
Two students returned books shortly
after 9 o’clock—their third offense;
two at 9.15—their third offense; four
at 9.30—their third offense; two at
11, two at 11.50, one at J ong at 1
o’clock.
Some years ago the hour for the
return of Reserve Room Books was 9
o’clock. At the request of the students
the hour was changed to 8.30. The
following year another request sent it
on to 9 again. Later the influence of
certain diligent students swung the
time back to 8 o’clock, but not for
change to 8.30 for all days except
Saturday and Sunday—an arrange-
ment which I think has,,been the most
satisfactory of all.
We trust that with the granting of
the proposed change to 8.45 this hour
may prove to be the magical one and
the proper time limit for all.
Sincerely yours,
Lois A. REED,
Librarian.
ABROAD AT HOME
Twelve miles southwest of Bryn
Mawr lies a region worthy of your
time some Saturday afternoon, where
pansive—yet impressive beauty has
been preserved.
Turning across a wide field from
the road we approach Fort Washing-
ton, built on a hillside overlooking
the field, open, shallow and surrounded
by a ditch.
From the fort you can see the chapel
which, though recently erected, yet re-
tains the whole spirit of the neighbor-
ing monuments in that it commemor-
ates the common soldier in the Conti-
nental army, carves him impressively
above the choir stalls and shelters him
with windows of richly painted glass
and heavily carved doors. Beside the
chapel is a carillon of bells presented
by different states of the Union.
Every hour the bells chime and in
the Christmas season Silent Night,
Adeste Fidelis and other familiar
carols ring through the woods.
Leading from the chapel is a road
to the railroad station and thence to
Washington’s Headquarters, which is
a small six-room house, once owned
by Isaac Potts, minister, who departed
for parts unknown when Washington
came to Valley Forge. Old furniture,
little touches of authentic detail, a
fireplace which practically fills the
huge kitchen, a tunnel, now cut off but
once supposed to have been long
enough to go under the Schuylkill
River, all create an _ inescapable
atmosphere of reality.
About. a block from theSheadquar-
ters is Valley Forge Inn, built before
1768, where meals were cooked for
some of the soldiers. The cupola and
porches are too ornate to be called
beautiful, but they are interesting in
their own right as well as parts of
an historical building.
Now you take a road between Mount
Joy and Mount Misery, which runs.
along a creek where the old forge was
situated. A footpath leads off from
the road, up the side of Mount Joy to
an observatory at the top. The obser-
sabaieg is open and windy, but the

AT HOME NOT ABROAD
Two: weeks ago the neighboring
columnist cited the joys and delights
of an afternoon at the zoo in Phila-
delphia. Since this column is to con-
fine itself to matters of campus con-
cern, we hasten to point out the de-
lights which we, as the inmates of
our own type of zoo, offer to Sunday
visitors.
The usual line of approach is by
motor, following the devious meander-
ings of the road from behind Merion
and the Gym around to the Deanery.
At the corner of the Deanery, as each
car cuts the rut at the turn an inch
deeper, there is invariably a knot of
amorphous student body, hidden be-
neath hunched-up coats and conceal-
ing the identity of the parts behind
a heavy smoke screen. Visitors are
warned not to drive into these groups
nor to approach too closely on foot,
for they are murderously dissecting
the affairs of their intimates, and vis-
itors will have no claim to mercy.
Happily chattering pre-freshmen
and parents amiably vocalizing their
approval of “vine-clad academic clois-
ters” should not heed the heavy
grunts and blazing glares of the in-
mates who have taken to the Cloisters
with their books for fresh air. This
species of the woman collegian, while
forbidding in appearance, is not vi-
cious, and as a rule is approachable
(for a match). The real danger re-
gions of the campus, for the uniniti-
ated Sunday visitor, are the hall en-
trances and the showcases. Here
every form of bodily injury and men-
tal torture may be inflicted upon the
unsuspecting. Closed eyes and ears
are only a partial protection for the
latter, while ‘an advance guard of
tame inmates or guardians at every
door is the only surety against bodily
injury from banging doors and hur-
tling bodies.
The athletic species of the college
woman, while the strongest and best
armed, is by far the most amicable
to the tourist, except when she is in
active competition. One of the rea-
sons for the high death rate of visi-
distinction, and frequently attempt
innocent questions when a_ tennis
game is at add out for the seventh
time. At other times, and when loose
on the campus, the athlete is always
ready to be of assistance. Visitors
of weak body or mind should not ac-
cept too glibly this proffered aid.
The visitor to the Common Room
will be safe at most seasons, but at
intervals of six to eight weeks
throughout the year must never en-
ter the room. This rule may safely
be applied to the rest of the campus,
for in these periods (usually of two
weeks’ duration and known to the in-
mates as “quiz-” or “exam-time’’)
even the most docile female animal
in the college zoo becomes a crazed
beast and must under no circum-
stances be tampered with or even fed.
At other seasons, however, feeding
is generally a safe procedure and
often is the shortest way to the ani-
mal’s heart.. The brave visitor who
is anxious to make a complete con-
quest is urged to take one of the
tamer inhabitants (of small stature!)
away. from the campus and even so
far as Philadelphia for feeding pur-
poses. As a rule, this courageous ad-
venturer ‘need have little to fear, for
the city has a subduing effect upon
even the wildest of the carnivorous
species. If funds are limited, the vil-
lage or even the College Inn (another
habitat for the gregarious species of
Bryn Mawrter) will do for eating.

Individual Important
In Aristotle’s World
Central Problem Was to Find
The Key or Cause Ordering
His Universe
Common Room, November 20.—
Contrary ‘to popular opinion, Aris-
totle was more idealistic than Plato,
Dr. Charles Bakewell told the Phi-
-losophy Club, for “he combined ideal-
ism with common sense.—We love
Plato; we look up to Aristotle.” Just
as Plato had depended on Socrates so
“Aristotle stood on Plito’s shoulders.
It was as if one idea were growing
thrgugh three lives.”
f his eighteenth year Aristotle,
' lis ing, conceited, over-dressed, but
brilliant, entered Plato’s Academy.
In the 20 years that he remained
there, it is probable that he wrote the
majority of his lost dialogues and his
surviving treatments of eight major
subjects. More amazing than _ his
prolific writings is the questionable
aspect of his discussions of their fun-
damental difficulties.
Aristotle has been called “nature’s
private secretary, dipping his pen in
intellect.” But his critical approach,
entailed too set an angle to be favor-
able for unbiased scientific study.
His biological studies, however,
merely trained his observations and
did not satisfy his desire to view the
“cosmic process as a whole.” Even
objects of sensation, he contended,
are not simply sensational. We are

impressed by the form but not by the
matter of an object. Repetitious im-
pressions evoke memory which under-
lies reason and science.
So. Aristotle’s central problem was
to find the “key,” the cause, which
ordered his cosmos. He contended
that all factions and changes “are
predicated by the assumption that
there is something beyond.” Here
he goes back to the Platonic “ideas”
but, contrary to Plato, he regards
them as forms in a changing world.
To. Aristotle, the real in this world
is the individual. To identify the in-
dividual throughout the changes svhich
he suffers, he empirically denied ents
gories, or second essences, which are
a logic of language if not of science.
Under these, all traits may be cubby-
holed. x

there are four causes, not separate
but inter-involved: material, formal,
efficient and final. Hnd conditions

from mind.” Form cannot exist with-
out matter.
events is motivated by the end or
entelechy.
All this experience preserves what
has preceded it and points to what‘is
to follow. This progression cannot
comprehensively be infinite; an Un-
moved Mover ends it.
As man has always conceived his
God as a glorification of his ac im-
age, and since contemplation of*truth
is man’s most perfect occupation, this
is God’s exclusive preoccupation.
Aristotle’s God, therefore, moves in

of its findings suggests appropriate

Geology Should Appeal
To the Feminine Eye
Mr. Collins Finds Girls in Field
More Thorough Than Boys
(This is the sixth of a series of in-
terviews with new members of the
faculty.)
“If the feminine eye is as sensitive
as we should have believed, women
would logicallyJbe attracted to geol-
ogy,” Mr. R. -Lee Collins, lecturer in
geology, said. Not only the rare
colors found in mineralogy, but the
decorative forms found in fossil re-
mains should make them enthusiastic.
Mr. Collins’ interest in geology was
not evoked visually.’ When he was a
boy, the eastern shore of Maryland,
where he was reared, seemed “flat and
featureless to him.” Perhaps it was
this dull sameness which one day pro-
voked him to fling a stone to the ground
with such violence that it split. In-
side was a small petrified animal
whose shell-like form had, been im-
pressed on the halves of the rock.
Mr. Collins’ curiosity led him to dis-
cover that this was a Brachiopod.
When Mr. Collins entered Johns
Hopkins University, he intended to
become a chemist. However, the old
fascination which geology had for
him reasserted itself, and he received
his Ph.D. in this subject in 1928. For
the last six years he has been at
| Johns Hopkins as an instructor in
paleontology.
Although Mr. Collins’ interest is
_ pledged to invertebrate paleontology,
it is swinging to the vertebrate prob-
lems of the subject. “The general
ground plan,” which invertebrates
lack, makes modifications clearer in
vertebrate study, he finds.
Last. summer he studied vertebrate
remains in the marine beds of South-
ern Maryland. He expects to con-
tinue his investigations there under
a grant assigned to him by the Geo-
logical Society of America. Rhin-
oceros teeth, pig, elephant, porpoise
and bird remains have already been
’ unearthed, and Mr. Collins hopes that
further discoveries will enable him to
link these marine deposits with con-
tinental beds in the “West.
He has already published several
monographs on invertebrates and is
now writing on vertebrate paleontol-
ogy.
Surprisingly enough, Mr. Collins
finds that girls, once lured into geol-
ogy, are more thorough than boys,
who often maintain a discouraging
“so what?” air. In addition to sin-
cere students the Geology Department
has an excellent collection of fossil
remains. Mr. Collins is attempting to
add to its paleontological section.

which is sculptured, contains 20,000
pieces of cut stone. The use of the
dividing medial cornice is common in
New Empire buildings, and sculpture,
if it appears at all, is always in the
upper part. The sculpture often em-
ploys as a motif the feathered ser-
pent, the symbol of the supreme crea-
tor-god.
The most important excavations
and restorations now being done are
at Chicen Itza, also a New Empire
city. Since 1924 the Carnegie Insti-
tute has been at work there. At this
time the restored or partly restored
building include: the Principal Tem-
ple, dedicated to the feathered ser-
pent; the Temple of the Warriors; the
Ball-court; the Astronomical Observa-
tory; the Vapor Bath; the Palace;
and the Court of the 1000 Columns.
Of the many buildings the Ball-
court is the most interesting. In this
court a game resembling basketball
was played. The court is enclosed by
two long walls, 92 feet apart; high in
the center of each wall is placed a
stone ring: The object of the game
was to. drive a hard rubber ball
through one of the rings with the
wrist, elbow or hip. The first Euro-
pean notice of rubber was in connec-
tion with this game at the court of
Montezuma in 1519.
Another interesting building is that
used for vapor baths. Restoration of
this, though not complete, is well un-
der way. Beyond a central doorway
is a small chamber where the bathers
rested and whgre vapor was produced
by pouring water over heated stones.
The Principal Temple, a ‘pyramid
and temple built over an earlier simi-
lar structure, has brought to light
some of the most important monu-
ments of the Mayan Civilization. Last
summer there was found in an inner
chamber the statue of a jaguar, four
feet long,three feet high and two feet
wide. Its body was painted a brilliant
mandarin red and it was spotted with
73 insets of apple-green jade. The
eyes were half-spheres of jade and
its wide-open mouth displayed a splen-
did set of bone teeth. On its back
was a turquoise mosaic plaque. It is
undoubtedly one of the original jaguar
thrones which are pictured in Mayan
reliefs, and is the most magnificent
specimen ever found in situ in Central
America.

this change.
The best piece of acting was done
by L. Crosby Lewis, Jr., who took the
part of Ned, Linda’s brother. He was
the only character in the play who
had the rare power, not always seen
on the professional stage, of never
giving the impression that he was act-
ing at all. -Every line that he spoke
and every movement that he made
came spontaneously from within him-
self and was unquestionably right.
His part, that of a boy with too much
money who just missed being. a fine
person, might have easily been stereo-
typed, unpleasant and dull. But Lewis
handled it with imagination, playing
especially well a_ difficult drunken
scene which balanced precariously be-
tween comedy and pathos and might
easily have become either farcical or
sentimental.
As Johnny Case, the leading man,
William Clark was likeable enough,
but his characterization lacked the
self-confidence. and force which it
would seem natural for him to have
had as a self-made man who put his
ideals before convention, money or
even love. Edith Rose as Julia, Lin-
da’s sister, was at her best during
the first two acts, during which her
gayety changed to irritability. The
feeling of tension which she had to
put across in the third act was less
successfully sustained. ,
Tillman Kulp Saylor and Olga
Mueller were excellent as Nick and
Susan Potter. Saylor, who had some
of the funniest lines in the play,
talked along quite naturally, making
no attempt to strain his part beyond
its limits, and was extremely enter-
taining at all times. Mary Hinckley
Hutchings and Daniel Gledden Santer
were smug and stupid as the socially
prominent Seton Crams, affording a
delightful butt for the witticisms of
Linda and the Potters. Amos Patten
Leib was deliberately mechanical as
Linda’s father, but while his stiff man-
ner was in keeping with the part, his
speaking voice did not sound real.
Of the two sets, the nursery on the
top floor was the most impressive and
both were successfully designed by
Olga Miiller, 37, and executed by
Anne Wyld, ’38, and George Norris,
Jr., Haverford, ’37. M. O.

Dramatics Important
In the Summer School
English, Economics and Science Are
Offered Students
The Deanery, December 8.—At a
tea for undergraduates interested in
the Bryn Mawr Summer School for
Workers, Elizabeth Lyle, ’37,
Sylvia Wright, ’38, spoke informally
about the school’s purpose, its.present
organization and its activities. Last
Summer Miss Lyle and Miss Wright
‘were undergraduate assistants at the
fifteenth session of. the school held at
the college.
The purpose of the school, as de-
fined by Miss Wright, is to give the
students.a pattern into which they
may fit the facts which they know.
By translating their own experience
into terms that aré intercurrent with
the whole of knowledge, they learn
the extent of their problem, and see
its relation to the social and eco-
nomic structure. There is a realiza-
tion of the common qualities in
widely divergent experience, as well
as ‘individual clarification of import-
ant issues.
English, economics and science are
the regular courses offered. Classes
are one and one-half hours long, sci-
ence Yitgetings twice a week, English
and economics every day. The Eng-
lish course covers the fundamentals
of oral and written expression,- pro-
viding both instruction and practice
in the rules of grammer, spelling and
parliamentary procedure. ‘Science’
is a general survey of the fields of
geology, biology, chemistry and phy-
sics, approached from the common
phenomena of everyday life, and re-
lated to the fields of history and eco-
nomics. The scientific method is. dis-
cussed as a tool effective in society as
well as in science. The course in
economics draws its material from the
problems of the students, and at-
tempts to explain them in terms of
some logical and coherent structure.
Dramatics play an important part
in the extra-curricular activity of the
school. Last summer, in addition to

Dancers to Give Story of Christ
Final rehearsals are now under
way for the Dancers’ Club Christmas
performance to be given December 12
at 8.30, in the Gym. The perform-
ance, in the words of Miss Josephine
Petts, director of the dancing, is an
attempt to interpret in contemporary
terms, the story of the Annunciation
and Nativity.
Ethel Mann, ’38, is the originator
of a number of the dances, and is also
in charge of the lighting effects, as-
sisted by Dewilda Naramore, ’38,
secretary of the club. Mary Whalen,
38, president of the club, is in charge
of costumes, and will take the part of
the Madonna. Patricia Robinson,
39, heads the Property Committee.
The music for the dances which has
been especially composed by Mr. Hans
Schumann embodies as does the danc-
ing the customary Christmas tone,
together with the modern influence.
several informal entertainments, a
Trade Party and an International
Peace Festival were given. The Peace
Festival, described by Miss Lyle,
showed, on a small scale, the tre-
mendous force of a group whose di-
verse interests have been fused to-
gether in. the interests of mutual
security and peace.
The job of those undergraduates
interested in the Summer School, said
Miss Wright, is to make its activities
and progress known to the college as
a whole. In this way the summer
and winter student’ groups may be
brought more closely together than
they are at present.

whelming . orchestra, the Deanery
dance after the play last Saturday
night was most successful. The dan-
cers waltzed or what-have-youed in
and .out of three rooms. which had
been cleared for action. The square
hall was the most jammed what with
the orchestra taking up one large cor-
ner and a big “doe” line milling
around the dining room. The library
up the little stairs (we watched all
evening hopefully but no one did a
Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers up them)
was'a haven for battered souls, rela-
tively cool and quiet after the hall.
The dining room proved a rather dan-
gerous spot because some ambitious
person had. given his alk to the wax-
ing, but it’ had the attraction of food
and punch. Mr. and Mrs. Lattimore,
Mr. and Mrs. Patterson, Esther Har-
denbergh, and Virginia Baker re-
ceived, and every one seemed happy
including the Dance Committee. The
dance was financially a success also.

Each member of the Association is
expected to be familiar with the rules

with in the following rules.

ROAST PIG FOR ROCK PARTY
Plans for the hall Christmas parties
are-slowly getting under way, varying
greatly from hall to hall. Rockefel-
ler’s plans, under the directorship, of
Huldah— Cheek, ’°38, are the most
elaborate, the motif being the Feudal
Era. The dining room will be decor-
ated in the manner of a mediaeval
castle complete with yule log, coats-of-
arms and tapestries. The knights and
ladies in the pageant will be seated
about a long table on which there
will be as the piéce de resistance a
roast suckling pig. Musie will add to
the festive atmosphere. The pictorial
quality of the theme will be stressed.
The freshman class is in charge of
the festivities in Merion and as yet
have no definite plans. Dorothea
Wilder, ’87, and Queenie Huebner, ’37,
presidents of Pembroke West and
East, respectively, are planning their
halls’ entertainment, which will con-
sist of a dinner and skits by the fresh-
man class.

MR. FENWICK STIFLES
IN SOUTH SEA HEAT
En route to Rio
November. 17.
Dear College News:
Lest any one of the student body
should be thinking of retiring to the
South Seas off the Brazilian coast at
the end of her four years of hard
work, I want to say that it is as hot
and humid down here at this season
as it is at the College Inn in mid-
summer. Why didn’t some one tell
me.to. bring along--one. of those. white
linen dinner coats, though even they
seem to wilt in the sub-tropical heat
of the dining room?
We have~a number of other dele-
gations on ‘board and I have made
friends with the Mexican, Haitian,
Nicaraguan and Salvadorean repre-
sentatives and find them very pleas-
ant company—or rather, I wish that
I had time to enjoy their company,
for I have simply been too busy thus
far to do more than put in an appear-
ance on deck and then disappear again
to my cabin. If it isn’t a committee
meeting it’s a sub-committee meet-
ing, and when it’s neither, then it’s
a pile of documents to be read set-
ting forth what the twenty other
delegations think should be put on
the agenda of the conference, or what
they think should be left off.
We sighted the coast of Brazil yes-
terday and are due at Rio on Thurs-
day morning. I know you are going
to envy. me. the two days we are. to
spend there, with the Brazilian For-
eign Office as our hosts at dinner the
first evening and the most beautiful
harbor in the world lying at our feet
next morning—and a day off from
work!
This is just a line—in the hope that
you will recognize me when I come
back. I’ll send you news from Buenos
Aires when we get there.

« Current Events
_ (Gleaned from Miss Kraus’ speech)
- Common Room, December 8.—‘So-
cial Security,” says Miss Kraus, “aims
to provide the minimum safe-guards
against the common hazards of life.”
The Social Security Act is a result
of a message sent to Congress by
President Roosevelt on June 8, 1934.
Many people do not realize the neces-
sity for social security; they do not
- yealize that even before the depres-
sion there were over a million men out
of ‘work, that seventy per cent of the
wage-earning population had incomes
under fifteen hundred dollars a year,
and that twenty per,cent of these
wage earners had to meet sickness
bills. of a hundred dollars or more.
The Social: Security program has
three aims: first, to provide work at
a decent wage level; second, to make
housing accessible to lower income
earners; and third, ®, .provide mini-
mum safeguards again unemployment,
sickness and old age.
The PWA and the WPA have car-
ried out the first aim in providing
publically financed work until indus-
try and private enterprise can reab-
sorb the workers. The NRA. dealt
with labor and set minimum wage
levels, and the AAA tried to safe-
guard minimums. .
The Federal Housing . Administra-
tion has built up and remodeled hous-
ing already existing; the PWA Hous-
ing Division has as its objective the
—_—_—_—
creation of new housing, and the pro- |’
vision in this way not only of -re-
employment, but of the minimum
needs of living.
The third aim is to be accomplished
by a Nation-wide federally admin-
istered pension system for which con-
tributions will begin this January. In
other words, the aged are to be as-
sisted by way of Social Insurance.
In these three ways all the unem-
ployed wili be provided for. The
temporarily unemployed are put on a
work program, the chronically unem-
ployed are turned over to more per-
manent groups. The Unemployment
Compensation Scheme is part of the
Security Act and plans the preven-
tion of future depressions by a better
type of help to future unemployed.
It also finds other expression in cer-
tain provisions for safe-guarding chil-
dren’s he#th and for rehabilitating
crippled ups.
America is behind European coun-
tries in social security legislation.
Private capital and initiative have not
solved the problem here, and the re-
sult has been slums and unspeakable
living conditions. But in spite of the
fact that these conditions are staring |
America in the face, the American,
people are not ready to accept a social
security program. Conflict will arise
primarily from the collection of taxes;
and people object, moreover, to the
way in which legislation is being
rushed in the states. The laws will
be poorly drafted, their administra-
tion will be bad; but social security
is being attempted here for the first
Book Reviews
Honorable Estate—by Vera Brittain
To those who read Vera Brittain’s
Testament of Youth, the autobiogra-
phy of a brilliant member of the gen-
eration “lost”? by the War, the ap-
pearance of Honorable Estate is of
special interest. In this novel Miss
Brittain again deals with the effects
of the War on youthful personalities,
but she enlarges the field by covering
two generations of the twentieth ¢en-
tury. Her title is taken from the
marriage service of the Church of
leipcbae and implies much of her
theme, the position, political and so-
cial, of women in England and its
change from the first suffragist move-
ments’ under Mrs. Pankhurst to the
election of the heroine of the third
part of the novel to Parliament. The
character delineations in most cases
are excellent but uneven, especially
with Denys Rutherford, son of the
first heroine and husband of the third.
'As in her previous book, Miss Brit-
tain’s best work is in the descrip-
tion of the state of mind of the girl
whose whole equilibrium was threat-
ened by the tragedies of the War.
The book is a long one and the read-
ing is slowed by the profuse quota-
tions, but it is well worth while.
time and must be given a chance. It
is like a baby—very impressive, but
very, young.
Loose Organization
Is Cause of Strike
Continued from Page One
are those subsidized, by ridiculously
generous government mail '/contracts.
The small companies are simply used
as “spear-heads” and cannot yield,
although they are willing to do so.
Some of these large companies have
been given boats by the government
which they are to pay for over a
period of twenty years, at one-half of
one per cent interest.
Several principles dwarf even the
money and living-condition issues in
this strike. The men wish to have
their own conciliation board with the
ship owners to discuss the dismissal
of seamen; they wish to have their
own “hiring halls” run in a rotary
system so that chances for work would
be evenly distributed; in addition, they
want a sliding scale of wages to fluc-
tuate with economic conditjons.
Once reorganized, the ish to join
the A. F. of L. and to Saat it out”
the way they have their own organi-
zation. They will then have the power
to demand the enforcing of a “safety-
at-sea code.” 1n case of war, they will
be able to refuse to transport mu-
nitions, as several crews effectively did
during the Italio-Ethiopian war.

The Folk Festival..that. is to be

The purpose of the Festival is to

ignore.
Beginning early in the summer with
the cooperation of the WPA., five hun-
