Miss Petts Will Teach
- At Austrian Mozarteum
To
Give Course Next Summer
~ On “Good Movement”
(Especially contributed by. Donnie
Allen, ’38.)
It has, just been announced that
Miss Josephine Petts, Director of
Physical Education, will teach next
summer at the .International Mo-
zarteum Foundation in Salzburg; Aus-
tria. Loo
As a member of the davapietent. cd
dancing Miss Petts will givé a special
course, “Good Movement Through
Dancing and Proper Coordination.”
The famous summer Salzburg Fes-
tival is the direct result of the Mo-
zarteum established in 1841 and sup-
ported by the Mozart legacy. Its de-
include instruction in a
great variety of musical instruments,
voice, opera, drama, dancing, stage di-
rection, ‘acting, scenery, costuming,
French and German. The institute’s
faculty is international.
In addition to the opportunities for
study at the Mozarteum there is the
rare pleasure of living in the city of
Salzburg—a city of. very special
charm.
Miss Petts knows Salzburg. very
well, having spent“.many. summers
there as student and_later as teacher

School which had its summer résidence
at Schloss Klessheim, just outside the
city.

The Gymnasium, December 4.—The
Undergraduate Association offered
very successful dance for Br
Mawrters to frolic at after the play.

strings of flags which looped, from bal-
cony.to balcony to the fishnet effect,

of man, because he identifies this prin-
ciple with being.” The intellectual
is thought of as independent of mat-
ter. Matter, deriving its individuality
from God, is potential, not actual.
But “being is really in matter, be-
cause that which cannot feel does not
really exist, as perception is a feeling.
It is impossible to separate being from
matter.”
“In intellection is man’s perfec-
tion. Infinity, perfection, eternity, es-
sence,—all these: qualities which one
believes exist in God are conceptions
of this faculty.” At the same time,
“the knowledge of infinite things and
perfection does not transcend the
senses, but is unity, within. matter:
Perfection for man is this infinity
within his finite destiny.” It is in
this sense that Thomag, Aquinas can
say that actuality, as existence, en-
tails perfection. More thaiithis, ex-
istence for man entails consciousness
or feeling.
This perfection of matter is not to
be thought of as involving division in
time as opposed to God outside of time,
but as unification, coalescence through-
out time.

the uncomfortable embarassment that
comes when an actor’s emotion simply
fails to register, or is overplayed; as
far as we were concerned, she was
Sydney.
Mary Sands’ part as Margaret was
more difficult because it took her’ out
of herself, that is, from youth to age,
a transition which she did not quite
make effective. One can disguise
youth by “old” clothes, one can paint
innumerable wrinkles on a young
face, but it must be camouflaged from
the inside out.. James Smith as
Hilary, and Mary Reisman as Aunt
Hester, were the only ones who man-
aged this peculiar i Bi efface-
ment. Sanford Etherington (Gray)
looked like an earnest, pugnacious
football star with powder in his hair;
William Larson’s (Dr. Alliot’s) voice
sounded singularly boyish even though
one was momentarily hoodwinked by
his haggard fifty year old face.
Harold Norton, on the other hand,
made the Rev. Pumphrey into a char-
acter part, an eccentric Peter Pannish
gentleman, who has never been young
and thus becomes static in appear-
ance from the hour of his birth. At
any rate, he looked old enough to ex-
plain the presence of young Kit
(Clyde Hubbard) and both together
very successfully turned their rela-
tionship, aside-from age, into a kind
of paradox,.though narrow-minded
fathers -have been known to have
broad-minded.'sons.’. In this case, Mr.
Hubbard, the broad-minded son, was
something other than a. .Princeton
senior, just.as Miss Reitler: more or
less transcended her’ own identity.
Kit’s part had a good many objection-
able . possibilities, and Mr.’ Hubbard
bit at none of them.

HOLDS GRENFELL SALE
The Grenfell Shop, which comes an-
nually to Bryn Mawr, under the spon.
sorship of the Bryn Mawr -League,
will be open this week and next in
Jane Braucher’s room, 54-57 Pem-
broke East. All articles sold are ob-
tained from the Grenfell Labrador In-
dustries Shop which is maintained
for the benefit of Dr. Grenfell’s con-
structive work in Labrador, where
there have been established “five hos-
pitals, six nursing stations, four or-
phanage-boarding schools, hospital
ships, industrial stations, clothing dis-
tribution centers, agricultural efforts,
and other means to induce a better
civilization.”
The stock of the Bryn Mawr Gren-
fell Shop includes gay-colored woolen
socks, sashes, and :mittens, bars of
maple sugar, Christmas cards, calen-
dars, seals, witidow wedges, letter
openers, napkin rings, curtain pulls,
and ever-popular winter parkas; all
sorts of excellent Christmas gifts.
Purchases benefit both Labrador in-
dustries and the Bryn Mawr. League,
which receives a commission from the
sale that helps it to carry on its nu-
merous activities.
posed on them by time, and trans-
forméd themselves respectively, into
a nasty old maid, and a man who has
been through a kaleidascopic hell for
more than fifteen years. Miss Reis-
man achieved this partly by affecting
a pursed-lipped, weary-eyed snappish-
ness, partly by the inside-out process
mentioned above. Mr. Smith’s tense
characterization was entirely inside
out and many-sided: groping and
tenacious, helpless and powerful, all
at once, and»particularly moving when
contrasted with Sydney’s strength.
The last part to consider is that of
Bassett, played by Janet Gregory. It
is hard to say anything about the
inevitable maid except that Miss
Gregory was as*good a one as we
could have wished for, with none of
the fripperies that some maids assume
when. they .want to make their pres-
ences felt.
Haverford Defeats B. M.
In Un-Hockey Game, 1-0
Visitors’ Idea of Rules is Vague
But Power Undeniable
November 30.—Only a faulty, one
might even say non-existant, knowl-
edge of the rules of field hockey pre-
vented the Haverford soccer team
from defeating the Bryn Mawr var-
sity by more than a mere 1-0 score.
Time and again Haverford swept
down the field, only to be stopped
short by a whistle for “‘off-side,” or
“turning” by a referee undaunted by.

In the cheering section. Haverford
outnumbered Bryn Mawr, and strong
masculine: voices drowned any femi-
nine support. A_ misdirected shot
brought a grunt of pain from a Bryn
Mawr back, and cat-calls from the
gallery: “Hit the ball,” “Dirty play-
er!”. and ungallantly “Knock ’em
down if they get in your way.” The
game was not hockey, but as a mild
type of free-for-all it proved satisfac-
tory to players and spectators alike.

Looking back over the years, one is
aware that the Players’ Club has sur-
passed itself, perhaps because of its
direction by Mrs. Marquerite Mc-
Aneny, perhaps because of its new
collaborators. Fortunately, it has
not, like big May Day, set itself any
hard and fast standards of perfec-

OU bet they do! In aviation is one of the most dis-
criminating groups of smokers in the country. The fa-
mous record holder, Col. Roscoe Turner, smokes Camels. So
do test-pilot Lee Gehlbach, Capt. Frank Hawks, and TWA’s
chief pilot Hal Snead—to mention only afew. As Col. Turner
puts it: “I guess you’ve noticed that men in aviation are
great smokers. And, from what I see, most fliers share my
regard for Camels. They need healthy nerves. That’s one big
reason why so many of us stick to Camels.”
And many millions of Americans — more people than smoke any
_ other cigarette in the world — give a hearty o-kay to Camels!
