Debt on Wyndham

Home Built by Quakeress :
Purchased by College
During 1925

In 1796, Patience Morgan, “a
thrifty Quakeress,” built Wynd-
ham. Years later, Dr. Joseph
Taylor, looking for suitable sur-
roundings and an advantageous
site for the new Bryn Mawr Col-
lege, chose the hilltops and slopes
to the west. There Bryn Mawr
has grown up for fifty-nine years
with two generations of students
taking the gracious old place
across the way for granted.

Suddenly, in the summer of
1925, Wyndham was offered for
sale. The Directors were faced
with the prospect of having the
place fall into the hands of a
real estate developer who had
rather wild ideas for the property,
including something which sounds
rather like a housing development
to lure people away from the
streets of Philadelphia. Rows and
rows of little houses would have
faced Pembroke and Rockefeller,
with cars, screaming children,
garbage trucks, and broken toys
adding to the melee. Gone would
have been the dance club produc-
tions, the Senior garden party,
the picnics and the numerous teas
in the pleasant setting of Wynd-
ham Garden; gone, too, would have
been the ideal home for the French
House.

This was not all. Enterprising
real estate developers had other



ideas. They proposed to build a
restaurant. where the _ college
greenhouse _ now stands, and,

worse, an open-air movie house

near it, and what might have ac-

New Literary Effort

Proves Creative Art

Not Dead on Campus

Specially Contributed by
as Virginia Grace, 44

This coming week will record
the launching of a new’ Bryn
Mawr magazine. It has been in-
cubating in the minds of five -un-
daunted Freshmen, who will tell
you vehemently, and now we must
believe them, that creative art on
campus is not dead. A. sceptical
student body has. been reading a
sober but somewhat perfunctory
funeral service over the flickering
Lantern, but it may now be in-
formed that the challenge it threw
out for a new and representative
periodical has found its mark. If
every healthy display of discon-
tent could produce such prompt
and unequivocal results, any Signs
of ferment. would be heartily wel-
comed.

The new magazine bears on its
cover the words The Title, sig-
nifying that the space is reserved
for a permanent name_ to be
chosen by its circulating public.
Mr. W. H. Auden has sent his
own ammunition in the form of
a poem entitled In War Time, com-
posed especially for The Title’s
maiden issue. Mr. Lattimore’s
superb translation of two Aeschy-
lean speeches brings the beauty of
ancient literature into the range
of modern study.

Hester Corner contributes a
provocative piece entitled Monu-
ments and Memorials of Balti-
more, a poem showing an amazing
facility of expression. Mr. Huf-
fington, by Jocelyn Kingsbury, is
a masterful sketch of the quiet
sort of crisis that lingers longest
in one’s memory. It is written
with an easy assurance and with
acute sensitivity to dramatic tim-
ing as well as to mood and sound.

Mademoiselle, Vogue Pass by Bryn Moron’s
Originality in the Designing of College Fashions



Life has its features on high
school fashions. Mademoiselle and
Vogue talk lovingly of the newest
things in college clothes—but
they’ve all passed us by. And now
is the time for us to assert our-
selves: What the well-dressed
Bryn Moron is wearing, or, how
to get dressed so they’ll let you
into the dining room without your
being uncomfortable.

To begin with, originality may
be the keynote of some campuses,
but we manage to remain individ-
ual by being monotonous. ‘The
popularity of the Maids’ Bureau
pinafores has reached such propor-
tions that no longer do two owners
of the same creation slink behind
the nearest cherry tree rather
than meet each other jumper to
jumper. Whole bevies of identi-
cally dressed classmates trail up
to Taylor arm in arm—but, in the
words of Mr. Patterson, the mass
of material varies as the densities
of the owners.

The latest costume for labside
wear consists of blue jeans, cut off
at the knees, the after-effects of
such an operation being truly sig-
nificant in relation to character
study.. All types of half-hitch
britches. result, from those volum-
inous pleated affairs that billow
in the breeze, to the rather snug
ones that couldn’t ripple in a hur-
With them, in all cases,
are featured thigh-length men’s
shirts—a-pre-war fashion which,

rather than being lessened by the
war-time material conservation
act, has been increased as we rob
our soldier’s civilian werdrobe.

Moccasins, which have long since
‘taken the place of dirty saddle
shoes, are worn with ingenious
patriotic patches of white adhesive
tape or with open toes and bow-
tied bandages to diminish the flap-
itty disembodied soles. The
infl of the Good. Neighbor
policy is evident with the appear-
ance of non-rationed espadrilles

and huaraches, worn with Mexican.

skirts and blouses. Even Tahitian
and Hawaiian touches appear,
blazing forth in irregular bursts
of color, with blouses tied in a
midriff knot above the waist for
greater sun exposure.

L85 skirts, on the other hand,
may be designed for pencil-slim
hips, but we manage a charming
bulging effect by wearing them
over shorts or rolled slacks. And
if you’ve noticed a strip-tease ses-
sion in the halls in the evening, it
merely means ghat dinner’s over,
and: we can uncover the uniforms
of a strictly utilitarian and com-
fortable life.

We are neater now, though.
Sweaters are not quite the man-
sized editions of a few years ago,
even if none of us| are the Lana
Turner type. Or maybe it’s just
that we’d rather-wear the shirts—



thigh-length.

Close Brazilian Ties
Seen by Paul Jones

el

Common Room, May 14. Paul
Jones, chief advisor to Nelson
Rockefeller, Coordinator of Inter-
American Affairs, spoke on the
present situation in Latin Amer-
ica, dwelling chiefly on Bolivia
and the Argentine.

Argentina, the most advanced
of the Latin American countries
in economic, political, and social
development, presents a “compli-
cated situation.” United States’
public opinion usually dismisses
Argentina as a fascist nation in-
tent on extending ‘the rule of Hit-
ler, but Mr. Jones attributed this
to a misapprehension built on a
difference of political objectives in
the two countries. The present
isolationist policy of Argentina
does not necessarily indicate sym-
pathy with the Axis. Aside from
Great Britain and the United
States, popular sympathy is with
Argentina, based on the concept
that Argentina is the defender of
Latin American sovereignty. On
the surface, our Good Neighbor
Policy has been valid. On the
other hand, we have intervened by

furthering the sort of government

we want in certain countries by
the recognition of certain ones
and the refusal to recognize oth-
ers.

“The case in Bolivia is even more
complicated,” according to Mr.
Jones. It is a very poor nation
and its economic sufficiency is al-
most entirely dependent on the
export of tin to the United States.
Because of this situation, Bolivia
is almost completely at the mercy
of America.

The situation is far different
from what it was two years ago.
At that time we were dependent
on those Latin American coun-
tries for their products. ‘When
Wwe «were comparatively weak,
Latin \ Ameria was sympathetic
toward uS,;"but now “we are losing
sympathy because we have gained
strength,” said Mr. Jones,



Alumnae Issue

This. special issue has been
prepared by the College News

Alumnae Asgociation. It goes
to 5,500 alumnae in an attempt
to compensate for alumnae re-
unions which will not be held
this year.









Hutzler, Harriman, Borden
Show Individual Talent
In Dances



By April Oursler, ’46

Wyndham Garden, May 11.—
Careful character interpretation in
combination with spontaneously
graceful dancing gave the Dance
Club’s performance of the dance-
play, Rodrigo,an effectiveness and
charm distinguishing it from last
year’s prodiction.

The music and _ the story, a
Chinese fairy-tale, both written by
Hans Schumann, the club’s accom-
panist, lent themselves extremely
well to the pantomimic tenor of the
dancing. Rodrigo, a gentleman
bandit, who has been tempted to
robbery by the devil, is in love
with Louise, who knows nothing
of his evil ways. Her discovery
of this, and the curse of a tooth-
ache laid on Rodrigo by the angry
gods, form the climax of the story.
The long tragic ending, almost
operatic in pattern, is concerned
with the Village Idiot’s jealous at-
tack on Rodrigo, Louise’s death

Jobs Using Spanish
Discussed by James

Common Room, May 12. Concha
Romero James, chief of the divi-
sion of intellectual cooperation of
the Pan-American Union, spoke
concerning Vocations Using Span-
ish on Friday. She discussed po-
sitions from two points of view,
those in-which the language is the
main. requisite, and those in which
it is an accessory tool.



With Spanish as a main requis-
ite, many positions, particularly
teaching, necessitate graduate
work. Inthe fields of interpreting
and translating, opportunities are
scarce, although college graduates
can do work in the abstracting of
reports and other material.

With the language as a tool, par-
ticularly as a strong minor to a
more useful major, prospects are
more encouraging. Economics ma-
jors can find work dealing with
documents and reports in the de-
partments of Commerce, Agricul-
ture, and State. There are many
opportunities in the Department
of Public. Health, Sra. James said,
for those knowing any science, and
there is work in the social service
line with the racial minorities
here.



Red Cross Gives
Authority to BM
For Campus Unit

First College Unit Offers
Variety of Activities
To Students



Specially contributed by
Mary Kay Snyder, °46 Chairman
of the Bryn Mawr Red Cross Unit

Bryn Mawr College has receiv-
ed a charter from the National
Red Cross which authorizes the
establishment of a. Red Cross
Unit on campus, directly subor-
dinate to the Ardmore Branch. A
War Alliance Committee headed
by Mary Kay Snyder, ’46, with
Helen Gilbert, °46, as Secretary
and Doris Emerson, ’46, as Pub-
licity Manager, is now plannng
the Unit’s organization.

The existence of the Unit will
be a challenge to the entire stud-
ent body. For it will be success-
ful only if next year every stu-
dent conscientiously pledges a
definite number of hours per week
to one of the war-essential activi-
ties offered, and faithfully con-
tinues in the training or service
she has selected.

The program of activities train-
ing to be instituted next October
is still tentative, but will certain-
ly be varied and vital enough to
claim a share of everyone’s time.
Anne Borum, ’46, will arrange
classes for those who wish to be-
come Nurses’ Aides. There will
be theoretical study on campus
under a qualified instructor fol-
lowed by the practical training
and service in Philadelphia hos-
pitals (and Bryn Mawr Hospital
possibly).

It is probable that many who
will not feel suited to Nurses’ Aide
work will wish to help in bringing
entertainment and comfort to
convalescents —reading, writing
letters, and receiving visitors,—
in the role of “Junior Grey Lad-
ies”. The short period of requir-
ed training for this Hospital and
Receration service can be com-
pleted in part of the first semes-
ter, and thereafter the trained
girls will be assigned to positions
of service in Philadelphia and on
the Main Line. Plans for’ the
Canteen Course, the prerequisite
for assistants in hospital or can-
teen kitchens will be supervised
by Gwendolyn Leege,”’46. It. is
important to realize that positions
of service in hospitals are not
open to us—under ordinary con-

The New Magazine

Within the coming week,

a new literary magazine will

make its appearance on campus, in answer to the challenge
thrown out by the abandonment of the Lantern. It is an ac-
tualization of the general campus feeling that there should
and must be an organ of expression for creative talent.

We had been told by the editors of the Lantern that
there was neither the material nor the demand for a maga-

zine.

The answer ,to the latter of these charges was evi-

denced first in News editorials calling either for the revival
of the Lantern, or for a completely new magazine, and finally
in the effort of these five Freshmen who initiated the pub-

lication of The Title.

Material is obviously® present

It is in a way a sad comment that the only members of
the undergraduate body to take constructive action in oppo-
sition to the statement of the Lantern editors were Fresh-
men. It may be that the upperclassmen have become so
stagnated, and are immersed so deeply in a traditional in-
ertia, that they have not the interest or the drive to put over
such a plan. The detail work involved in carrying out the
conception of a new magazine is staggering. It is more than
commendable that such a small group, and-such a—young

group could see it through.

But if the upperclassmen, and the campus as a whole,
are guilty of inertia and lack of interest, they can be vindi-
cated only by wholehearted, sympathetic and constructive
support of The Title. The material contained in it is varied,
original, and high in quality. ‘There can be no question of its
being unrepresentative, no charge of over-stereotyped stor-

ies.

Its founders and initiators have done a tremendous job.
They have not only made a contribution to campus life, but
have given actual proof that the creative spirit is not dead

at Bryn Mawr.

We are not limited to griping and theoriz-

ing. Constructive action has been taken. It is the duty of
the undergraduate body to support it. Only with our sup-

port can it succeed.

Donnelly Recalls History
Of Literary Attempts
On Campus



(Editor’s note: The News asked
Miss Lucy Martin Donnelly, ’93, var-
iously reader, lecturer, associate pro-
fessor and professor of English from
1896 to 1936, to. contribute to
special issue for the alumnae some-
thing of the history of the Lantern.
Miss Donnelly felt that she could not
write an adequate history of the
Lantern without more research into
the past than she was able to under-
take at that time, but she very“grac-
iously wrote in its stead a letter to
the News).

In brief, I remember hardly
more than the thrilling occasion
in the old sitting-room in Merion
when the plan for a college mag-
azine was launched by Elizabeth
Winsor Pearson; the design for
the cover by Maxwell Parrish
promised by a cousin of his; the
first years when ’92, ’93, ’94 were
editors and the stories and_ es-
says contributed—at that period
we wrote ‘“essays’—all seemed
brilliant and delightful. Even then
95, more sophisticated than the
earlier classes, thinking the Lan-

tern stodgy and precious, set wp’

in rivalry probably the cleverest
paper that Bryn Mawr has ever
had, The Fortnightly Philistine.
After a few years, The Philistine,
pure and simple, succeeded it.
Then the Typti-o-bob and the Col-
lege News came to fill the de-
mand for current information.

Meanwhile the Lantern has had
a checkered history between per-
iods of spirited revival and of
non-existence altogether, such as
they tell me now threatens. A
journal which is not merely a
newspaper presents serious prob-
lems in a small college as hard-
working as Bryn Mawr and is apt
to be successful only at times
when a group of students _ spec-
ially interested, take it in hand
with zest and talent. Such times
inevitably recur; from the prom-
ise among student writers at
present the College--may well be
on the eve of one.

“The old Bryn Mawr”, about
which you ask, other alumnae
can create for you better than I
who have been so long closely
connected with the College that
the earlier _years_are almost lost
for me in the gradual unfolding
of the later. The intellectual in-
terest has been from first to last
the very heart of all, but with
time “the trees on the campus
have grown”, as an alumnae once
pointed out with surprise. The
life had been enriched and the ac-
tivities more varied. The Cloisters
nowadays, I confess, are strange
to me, the hair worn to Victorian
eyes a la dishabille. Yet the oth-
er evening when I saw the Mika-
do with President McBride at my
side as I used to see undergradu-
ate performances with President
Thomas I recognized Bryn Mawr
unmistakably—and happily—des-
pite the Japanese setting. Not
that the music of old equalled
that of the ’40’s by a long shot.
In the ’80’s and ’90’s we had only
a tinkling piano in the little new
brick gym to accompany our In-
dian Clubs and Chest-weights.
The 40’s looked, and may I sav
“acted” Bryn-Mawr—might ‘2.
been 97, 1908, 08, °1f, Zi, ’22 or
any of the other 20’s or 30’s. The
admirable choruses, the sweet-
singing Yum Yum, the Ko Ko
skillfully, gracefully _ executing
capers, the Mikado taller and of
a more awful humor than perhaps
any yet on the Dryn Mawr stage.

The College has not only im-
mensely bettered its music, but
its traditions of good acting and
of wit have mellowed with its
fifty-nine years.

Sincerely yours,
Lucy Martin Donneliy

English Composition Staff
Asserts Liberal Aims
Of Course —

__

To the Editor:

Now that the results of-the_ poll
on Required English Composition
have been analyzed, it seems ap-
propriate for the staff to say some-
thing further about the course. We
do not think that most students,
if they understood the issues,
would wish to see the course re-
duced to the mere imposition of
technique or the mere imparting
of information. (We believe that
the course must be continued as a
liberal one in which the focus is
on the individual] student and the
independence of her thinking. We
have perhaps been mistaken in as-
suming that the relation of these
aims to the teaching of writing
has been clear; but, it is now ap-
parent that the connection has not
been understood.

The majority of students, once
they the
with which we have to deal, will

understand problems

probably want to seé only such
changes made in the course as
will make it better adapted to

the needs of the individual. We
feel it is necessary, therefore, to
give a brief description of those
problems and to outline our prin-
ciples in dealing with them. The
most obvious problem in writing
is the observance of a set of con-
ventions: grammar, spelling punc-
tuation, sentence structure, usage.
On most of these there is general
agreement, and the teacher’s task
is to see that they are observed.
Usage changes with time, how-
ever; the prose of the twentieth
century is not that of the nine-
teenth. We endeavor to take as
our standard the usage of the
best contemporary writers. We
do not hold ourselves responsible
for enforcing outworn conven-
tions; that we should regard as
pedantry. A second problem, one
which goes beyond the question
of convention, is logic: the ar-
rangement of thought within the
sentence, the paragraph, and the
essay as a whole, This—-is——no
superficial question, and a large
part of the teacher’s time is oc-
cupied with it. For the student,
indeed for all of us, logic in writ-
ing is connected with the clarity,
independence, and integrity of
‘thinking. Clear thinking, in turn,
depends upon honest observation
of facts, and upon ability to set
aside self-interest and emotional
bias. Therefore it is necessary
that students should write often
from first-hand observation and
sometimes on controversial sub-
jects.

Correctness and logic are very
important qualities in writing,
but a student often hopes_ to
achieve something further. She
wants to form ,her own manner
of writing, her own style.- This
third problem is difficult and can-

jut more harm than benefit. An
| assumed style is a collection of
mannerisms. A true style is the
direct reflection of an individual’s
manner of thinking;: it is the re-
sult of the convictions and the re-
lationships that make us what we
are, and it is attained only by a
process of maturing. Goethe
said: “the style of b writer is \ a
faithful representative of his
mind; therefore, if any man wish
to write a clear style, let him be
first clear in his thoughts; and if
any would write in a noble style,
let him first possess a noble soul”,

quired ‘composition course is in-

‘ Common Room, May 16. “The
poll tax is the greatest single bar-
rier to democratic voting,” declar-
ed Susan B. Anthony II in a talk
on The Poll Tax and the Election.
“Once it is defeated the way will
be open for a surge of liberalism
in the South.” At present, she
explained, ten million American
citizens are virtually disfranchised, _
a fact which accounts for the re- '
actionary nature of the. present
‘Congress.



Only twenty -two..-percent...of.
Southerners of voting age may
vote; three percent actually elect
the congressmen, as contrasted
with twenty-five percent in the
North. Thus it happens that more
votes are cast for two representa-
tives in Rhode Island than for fifty
poll tax representatives—that is,
that it takes seven times as many
votes to elect a Northern as a
Southern congressman. The South-
erners also stay in office much
longer; in the last election, sixty
of seventy-nine poll tax congress-
men had no opposition.

From being a local problem, the
poll tax has become a national is-
sue, Miss Anthony declared. Lib-
erals and labor leaders in the
South had hoped that the latest
poll tax bill might be passed, but
it was indirectly defeated yester-
day by a vote of “no closure.”

The poll tax is not a race ques-
tion; as a matter of fact more
whites than negroes are disen-
franchised by it. Nor does it in-
volve the issue of states’ rights,
for “only federal action can get
rid of this blight.”” The poll tax
is purely political, a measure or-
iginated in 1890 to block the Pop-
ulist Party, composed of farmers.
and workers, and it has been act-
ive ever since in keeping low in-
come groups from the polls.

Miss Anthony emphasized the
importance of supporting the next
anti-poll tax movement, for it is
an issue “which not only deter-
mines the kind of legislation we
get, but also the kind of world we
live in.” She illustrated this point
with the consistent sabotage of
progressive legislation by poll tax
congressmen, and said that ten
out of twenty-four committees in
the Senate, and fourteen out of
twenty-four in the House are-dom-
inated by poll taxers.



tended to assist the student to
think with more maturity. At the
end of the year the student will
have come into contact with a
number of the most important
ideas operative in the contempor-
ary world. Unless she is wholly
inaccessible to ideas, some of
these will have had an effect on
her mind. She will have been
stimulated to do her own thinking
on some of the problems that are
of most importance to all of us;
ad to the extent that her thinking
has crystallized, she will have de-
veloped her own manner of ex-
pression.

Acquiring a body of informa-
tion and conventional habits of
expression is only a part of edu-
cation. But if we make of this
acquisition an end in itself, edu-
cation becomes an extremely friv-
olous and egotistical affair. For
some years now the women’s col-
leges have pioneered in giving to
the study of English a more ser-
ious aim. We are confident that
Bryn Mawr does not wish to lead
a retrograde movement , toward
the older modes of teaching. “We
shall continue to regard the teach-
ing of writing not as a narrowly
utilitarian instrument, but as a
serious intellectual pursuit.

Changes in Constitution
Voted in Three Mass
Meetings



The revolutionary stir over Self-
Government, chief subject of con-
versation on the campus for some
weeks this winter, died down to a

/ murmur before spring vacation,

after three mass meetings and two
assemblies, three contested edi-
torials, innumerable opinion letters
in the News, and heated discus-
sions in. the Inn, on. Taylor. steps,
and in. every smoking room.
Whether the question of Self-Gov-
‘ernment has been finally settled re-
mains a moot point, but the: ma-
jority of this year’s undergradu-

ates have by their vote supported | j¥

the present system of student gov-
ernment, making several changes
where they felt they were needed.

Begun by an editorial in the| @

winter issue of the Lantern pro-
posing the abolishment of Self-
Government and _ suggesting in-
dividual keys and individual re-
sponsibility, the controversy
raged. The News responded with
a defense of Self-Government.

The Lantern editors spoke again,
saying they had “compiled and
destroyed a list of one hundred
and eighty-eight students whom
we know to have’ broken, con-
sciously and repeatedly one or
more ef the major rules of the
College.”

Meanwhile the Executive Board
of the Self-Government Associa-
tion presented a previously sched-
uled assembly designed to dem-

onstrate the workings and the
theories of the system.
Then came the change. The

Lantern editors made the unex-
pected statement that they had
written their editorial merely as
a criticism of the existing system
of Self-Government as defined by
its actual function on the campus.
They now proposed to remedy the
situation by means of a new con-
stitution. The adoption of a new
constitution, as opposed to the
amending of the present one, they
said, would be less difficult and
would lead to a more constructive
consideration of the problem.
In answer to this proposal and
to two petitions concerning smok-
ing, a mass meeting of the Asso-
ciation -was—held__on __ February
23rd. Begun by three speeches
clarifying the argument in favor
of a new constitution, the mass
meeting evolved into two hours of
hot and-~heavy- discussion on the

Varsity Tennis Team

Defeated by Cynwyd |



Cynwyd, May 15. Bryn Mawr’s
tennis team, although beaten in
the match with Cynwyd 6-0, did
not prove. a push-over for its op-
ponent.

The Cynwyd tennis club holds
second place in the. Philadelphia
Interclub League and has always
been a close contestor With Ger-
mantown Cricket Club for top po-
sition.

Ty Walker, Bryn Mawr’s num-
ber one player, bowed before
Cecile Bowes playing, 7-5, 6-0.
Miss Bowes is not only ceded first
among the Cynwyd players, but is
national squash champion and
number one Middle States tennis
player.

Sue Patterson won two love sets
from Pat Acheson, Julié Turner
lost to Mrs. E. J. Beatty, Jr., 8-6,
6-8, and Agnese Nelms was de-
feated 7-5, 6-4, by Mrs. William
Hawkes.

In the doubles matches, the Owls

found it just as difficult to score|’

against Cynwyd.

Self-Gov’t rules—smoking any-



pros and cons of Self-Govern-
ment. The vote taken later in
the halls indicated a 346-98 vic-

‘tory for the present constitution.

With this question, at least,
definitely settled, Miss McBride
took the opportunity to clarify
a question that had been much
bandied about in the various dis-
cussions—the relationship of the
Self-Government Association to
the Board of Trustees and _ to
other groups, outside, as well as
inside, the College. :

This was not the end. An ap-
peal was made to the student body
to offer measures which would
help to perfect our present sys-
tem of Self-Government. The con-
structive suggestions were forth-
coming in the form of a revision
of the rules and resolutions of
the Association and of some parts
of the constitution. In the second
mass meeting on March ‘th,
notably calmer and more efficient
than the first, permission-giving
was abolished except for the three
o’clock permissions and for Fresh-
men and transfers during their
first semester; the one hour al-
lowed after College entertain-
ments was extended to an hour
and a half and was simplified; the
two. o’clock permissionif -escort-
ed was extended to apply to any



place of entertainment, and smok-
ing was extended to all campus
grounds and anywhere off campus.

With the passage of further
amendments concerning dress, bi-
cycling, and other minor points in
hall meetings, it appeared that the
once-violent controversy was to
die a natural death, but not so. A
petition was presented asking that
smoking be allowed in the rooms
and as a result a third mass meet-

Newly Established
Undergrad Council
Directs Activities

College Establishes Office
Of Common Treasurer
Permanently



7

In 1942-43 the Alliance ceased
to be a committee of the Under-
graduate Association and became
an independent organ. Several in-
stances..arose during the year
where there seemed to be an over-
lapping in the activities of the
Alliance, Undergrad, and the
League, particularly in various
drives and in the _ selettion of
speakers. Out of the wht to
clarify these boundaries grew\ the
idea of increasing coordination\of
all the student organizations by
the establishment of an Under-
graduate Council.

The council consists of the presi-
dent of Undergrad, acting as
chairman; the president of Self-
Government, the president of the
League, the president of the Al-
liance, the president of the Ath-
letic Association, and the editor
of the News. The secretary of
Undergrad acts as secretary to
the Council, keeping the minutes
-of the weekly meetings.

The business which comes bé-
fore the Council varies from week
to week and is largely miscel-
laneous in nature, but as a body
it has several regular functions.
It must make out a budget for
four of its organizations (the A.A.



ing was held on March 18th, short-
er, but none the less marked by
distinct clashes in opinion than
the first. The petition was de-
feated by a 146-67 vote.

Now with the amendments ap-
proved by the Board of Trustees,
the question seems to have ‘come
to a close. Violent and_ -con-
troversial though it has been, the
whole matter has had distinct ad-
vantages. .It has brought, if
nothing else, a realization to the
undergraduates that they are ipse
facto members of—the—Self-Gov-
ernment Association/and as such
they can with sufficient support
change its rules rather than sit
in the smoking rooms and grumble
about them. There is a definite
consciousness of constructive par-
ticipation in something that was
before accepted with a shrug.and
with a complaint.

budget remains separate) for the
year to come. It must appoint
special. committees to direct the
United War Chest Drive in the
second semester, and it must deal
with scheduling problems.

In the fall of 1948, the College
voted the Undergraduate Council
the right to initiate legislation,
and at the same time, at the
recommendation of the Council,
voted to combine the treasuries of
Self-Government, Undergrad, and
the Alliance into-_a Common
Treasury for a_ trial period.
Jeanne Marie Lee ’45 was elected
as the first Common Treasurer,
the treasurers of the organizations
becoming first Sophomore mem-
bers. This..spring the Common
Treasurer was voted a permanent

Activities Interest

Maids and Porters °

The important part played by
the Maids’ and Porters’ organiza-
tion in campus activity this year
was evident along many lines.
Their enthusiasm and cooperation



‘showed not only in choral and
dramatic productions, but in a
100% contribution to all War

Loans and to the Red Cross Drive.

In, addition to the traditional
Christmas caroling, highlighted
this year by exceptionally good

soloists, the Maids and _ Porters
musical comedy, Gems, Gowns and
Gals, was a smashing and original
success. Basically a detective
Story, it combined songs, dances
and..romance..with..a.,.magnificently
costumed mannequin parade in a
lively and effective show.

The Maids’ Bureau, in Taylor
basement, now an institution ‘of
long standing, is perhaps the best
known of all the Maids and Por-
ters’ roles on campus. In addi-
tion to mending and refurbishing
anything from chair springs to
prom dresses, it produces the pina-
fores and skirts of spring, and the
bedspreads and curtains “of fall,
made to your order.

Even more significant of the
cooperative spirit between the
organization and the students are
the Maids and Porters’ classes,
taught by undergraduates at the
request of~ various groups. The
most popular of the courses are
Negro History and _ Current
Events, with an enrollment of nine
each. Chemistry, English, Public
Speaking, French and _ Spahish,
typing and piano lessons are also~
being given this year.

To Secure Wyndham

companied that little commercial
venture, we hate to think. A lit-
tle more and Bryn Mawr might
well have been called the campus
on the carline.

The Directors had an alterna-

tive. They could purchase Wynd-
ham with college funds which
would involve the sacrifice of

much-needed income to cover the
interest in the debt thereby in-
curred. Actually, there was no
choice. The first alternative was
inconceivable, so the Directors ad-
vanced the purchase money and
Wyndham became an integral part
of the college. Yet it became an
integral part of the colleg@ at the
price of a still existent $285,000
debt.

Since 1925, Wyndham has been
used as an undergraduate hall and
as -the.#rench House, with few
students or alumnae stopping to
realize the price that must be
paid for it each year, perhaps in
fewer books for the Library, less
_laboratory equipment, or antiquat-
ed plumbing. Now, to the alum-
nae and students of Bryn Mawr,
their friends and families, is offer-
ed a plan for helping to pay the
$285,000 debt on Wyndham, and
at the same time aiding the war
effort by the purchase of War
Bonds. If bonds to the value of
$210,900 are purchased and made
payable to the Trustees of Bryn
Mawr College, the amount in 1956
will be the necessary $285,000.

A “Bonds for Wyndham” drive
is to be opened in conjunction
with the Fifth War Loan drive
from June 12 to July 8. Special
committees of alumnae, faculty
and: students are being selected,
the student committee consisting
of Lydia Gifford, ’45, Mary Kay

| Snyder, ’46, Helen Reed, "46, and

Mary Camilla Williams, ’46.
Either F or G war bonds, the-only
type which an institution can hold,
may be bought from your, local
committee, or, if you prefer to
turn over a bond which you have
already purchased, and it is neither
an F or a G, it may be exchanged



~yT for one of these bonds.

Peyre Resumes Part

In Campus Activities
As Flexner Lecturer



For a period of two months
this winter, French activities and
social as well as aca-
demic, centered around M. Henri

lettres and
of French at
Mary

Peyre, docteur' es
Sterling Professor
Yale, who presented the
Flexner lecture series on _ the
Modern French Novel. _An active
member of the Bryn Mawr faculty
from 1925 to 1928, M. Peyre_be-
of the

campus on his return visit, con-

came an integral part
ducting several meetings of the
Modern French Novel course, lead-
ing the graduate seminary, and
attending undergraduate teas and

conferences.

Having

longer acted as a deterrent on

modern writers, M. Peyre pointed
out the effect of the recent de-

velopment of the scientific ele-
ments of psychology on the evolu-
tion of the French novel.

Diseussing the change in intent
and tone of the novels, M. Peyre
described the attempts of many of
the recent novelists to deal with
the moral and aesthetic problems
of our age, and the more recent
efforts of the writers to solve the
human problems created by
modern political and social condi-
tions.

Devoting each lecture to par-
ticular novelists and the trends of
which they are most illustrative,
M. Peyre opened his ‘series with
an analysis of Proust as repre-
sentative of the revival after the
Stagnation of the Ssymbolist
school, and of the beginning of
the psychological novel. Proust,
M. Peyre pointed out, introduced
what is often termed the “fourth
dimension,” the element of recol-
lection and accumulated percep-
tion which plays~—-such an im-
portant part in his psychological
novels. Gide,, working along the
line of the psychological novel in-
troduced by Proust, M. Peyre con-
sidered as the first great French
novelist to feel profoundly the
Russian influence.

Following the trend of interest
toward moral and religious prob-
lems, M. Peyre contrasted Mauriac,
the tragic novelist, who brought
a combination of Catholicism and
natural pessimism to his treatment
of ethical problems, with’ the
novelists of the “younger genera-
tion,” Malraux and Green. Al-
though both writers were con-
cerned with problems arising from
modern political conditions, M.
Peyre distinguished between Mal-
raux’s interest in the effect of
the epidemic of national revolu-
tions on the peoples involved and
Green’s preoccupation with the
escapist reaction to the violent
social upheavals during and fol-
lowing World War I,

M. Peyre, after discussing
briefly the works of du Gard, Ro-
mains, Celine and Giono, closed
the series with an analysis of
the man he considered the most
modern of all the novelists, Saint-
Exupery, the prophet of aviation.

Reschedule Problem
Ends in Compromise



Resulting from the editorial of
the January 12 News, a_ heated
discussion arose on campus this
year over the necessity for a re-
arrangement of the present semes-
ter schedule. The News maintain-
ed that the shortened exam period
and lengthened Christmas vaca-
tion, necessitated by the war, have
resulted in extreme over-crowd-
ing of the two weeks following
Christmas vacation.

Shorter Exam Period
Shortening of the exam period



and the consequent abolition of a
reading period meant that students
were forced to write semester pa-
pers and study for mid-years in
the same short period of time.
Exam hysteria resulted.

According to the plan suggested
by the News, the fall semester
would begin about September 15.
Classes would end December 15
for vacation. After vacation there
would be a ten day reading period
without classes, in which all stud-
ents could write their papers and
prepare for examinations.

Reading: Period

The Seniors’ traditional ‘reading

period’ would take place as usual.
Since papers are not usually due
as close to exams in the spring,
and since the examination period
is longer, no corresponding read-
ing period would be necessary
then. The second semester would
therefore begin a week earlier.

A poll of undergraduate opinion
of this plan was taken in the halls,
but proved rather unsuccessful be-
cause, during hall discussions, the
propos plan was changed in
various \halls. General opinion,
however, was obviously in favor
of improvements of some sort.

Change

The schedule for next year has
been changed somewhat, though
not as radically as suggested.
Classes are to begin on September
26. The wartime one-day Thanks-
giving vacation is to be added in-
stead to the Christmas vacation,
which is to last three weeks.



Hockey Camp

If you are interested in go-
ing to Miss Lynch’s Hockey
Camp at Tegawitha, Mt. Po-
cono, Pa., for the week before
college starts, see Miss Grant
or Betsy Kaltenthaler, Rhoads

Freshmen, Varsity Players, Language Clubs
Present Full Dramatic Schedule in °43-°44

Dramatics for 1948-44 gave evi-
dence that lack of time -is the
mother of improvisation. With
war courses and increased activity
‘on campus, it was feared last
spring that the Thespian arts
were out for the duration. Despite

thee handicaps, however, ~ the
Freshmen, the «Varsity Players’
Club, and the language clubs

turned out a fairly full dramatic
schedule in four languages.

The Merion Freshmen won the
coveted plaque for the best hall
play with Lady Gregory’s Hyacinth
Halvey, despite spirited competi-
tion from Pem West’s The Six Who
Pass While the Lentils Boil. The
six one-act plays presented by
the Freshmen of each hall in the

early fall, a tradition instituted
in 1941, serves as a “proving-
ground” for new talent. A com-

mittee of .upperclassmen acts as
directors, and the final products
are judged by the faculty com-
mittee. This year witnessed Mer-
ion’s second consecutive victory.

The Players’ Club showed less
spontaneity than the Freshmen,
For several years they have given
joint productions with Haverford’s
“Cap and Bells,” under the di-
rection of Mr. Nusbaum, but this
year found them stranded. What
was left of Haverford gallantly
offered to assist, but Mr. Nus-
baum played coy. Pressed for
time, he refused to direct any-
thing but Letters to Lucerne. The
Reading Committee tore its hair,
but yielded after a week of stale-
mate. The result was an over-
intellectual performance of a
rather mediocre play, but in any
case, tradition was preserved.

Christmas plays in French, Ger-
man, and Spanish, offered by their
respective departments, proved a
study in variety. The French
play, La Mystere de la Nativite,
has remained a _ landmark for
years, and was as grave and
charming as ever. The German
Club, which ever since its forma-
tion in ’86 has been giving a con-
glomeration of various scenes
from—seventeenth—century— plays
under the title of Das Weinacht-
spiel, offered its ’43 version. This
combined singing, religious pagen-
try and a little vulgar humor and
gave another group of German
aspirers a chance to don the musty
costumes.

The Spanish play was the sea-
son’s surprise. It was thought
to be a Christmas play, but it
really treated the ancient theme
of the deceived husband, enlivened
by pantomime and singing. The
results were hilarious. La Cueva
de Salimanca, by Cervantes, was
a Spanish House production, giv-
en in Radnor, and a highly his-
toric occasion. The curious flocked
to see it (also enticed by free
food), and present indications
point towards the establishment
of yet another tradition.

February saw the Freshmen at
it again, with a high-class show
entitled Alas, Poor Yorick. With,
hazing tied down by the College
Council’s recommendation, the

‘| runs in the





-show rehearsed unhampered. The
‘plot, concerned with two million-
aires trying to stop each other’s
skyscrapers, provided opportunity
for a variety of songs and dances,
the most outstanding of which
was a vigorously realistic duet
sung by a sailor and his date in
a park. To the courtly airs of
Beethoven’s Minuet in G, came
such words as “Come on babe, let’s
pitch woo.”

Spontaneity .reached its height
with the production of Plautus’
The Rudens (Shipwreck at Cy-
rene), translated into slang. Mrs.
Michels, of the Latin department,
directed the burlesqued tale of
two lost prostitutes looking for
each other on a foreign isle. Cos-
tumes and scenery were symbolic,
the latter being supplied by

and other necessary props. Latin
plays were first given in 1935, and
The Rudens was the department’s
fifth production.

Spring was the lean _ season.
Students directed the Maids and
Porter’s show, Gems, Gowns and
Gals, a one-act musical comedy,
well adapted to display the talents
of its actors. The Players’ Club
moved to Haverford in April to
cooperate in a_ production of
Charley’s Aunt. Bryn Mawr girls
took the few female parts in what
was the season’s liveliest large-
‘scale’ dramatic production. In
spite’ of man-shortage and war-
time, the plays must, and do, go
on.

Swarthmore Nine Defeats
Bryn Mawr Owls, 11-5
In Ball Game



Swarthmore, May 11 Collect
ing eight runs in the last two in-
nings, Swarthmore trounced

Bryn Mawr’s baseball team 11-5.
Those last two innings proved dis-
astrous for the Owls. They could
not get their batting sights on the
ball and batted in only one run.

The first half of the game was
as real pitcher’s duel and a ray of

|-hope flickered in the hearts of the

Owls at the end of the fourth in-
ning with the score four to three
in their favour. Posy Kent, the
Owls’ fast ball twirler, held
Swarthmore to two hits and three
first four innings.
Striking owt the first batter may
be a bad omen in the major
leagues, but Posy made it count
for Bryn Mawr, going on to fan
seven more players. Swarthmore
also used a fast ball pitcher who
though credited with five strike-
outs, was backed up by perfect
fielding.

The Owls got only four hits al-
together, one of them a_ double
by Marilyn Behner, but they
made good use of two walks, a
missed third strike and a balk to
net three of their tallies.

Noted by Association



It has been said that the Bryn
Mawr girl is not the athletic type,
yet the fact remains that activi-
ties apensored by the Athletke As-
sociation during the past year
have been not only numerous but
varied. Jean Brunn, president of
the Association, pointed out in her
report that, despite gas rationing
and searcity of tennis balls, there
has been no curtailment—of sports
at Bryn Mawr.

Last fall the Middle Atlantic
Intercollegiate Hockey Conference
was held here. In November, hoc-
key players from nine other col-
leges invaded the campus. Teams
from the University of Pennsyl-
vania, Drexel, Beaver, Ursinus,
Temple, Swarthmore, Rosemont,
Wilson, Chestnut Hill, and Bryn
Mawr played each other during
the morning, and in the afternoon
intercollegiate teams were chosen
to play the Hockey All-Stars the
next week. One player from Bryn

Now, when painful death
deprivation are heing widely suf-
fered, an individual sacrifice of
a few hours’ time seems a slight] °
inconvenience. Yet campus-wide
determination to make that small
sacrifice would mean an _ impres-
sive production of surgical dress-
ings and knitted goods demanded
by the armed services. Isabelle
Koehler, ’47, and Dorothy Bre-
man, 746, will be responsible for
the production of surgical dress-
ings by the large group which
should be enlisted. When yarn

Swarthmore, undefeated this year

Exp: essive Dancing
Displayed in Rodrigo
Continued from page 1

in .prcetection of her love, and the
Idio. s suicide.

Esterlee Hutzler, °45, dancing
the part of Rodrigo, showed a
gréat ieeling for the rhythm and
meaning of the music. The
strength and variety in her in-
terpretation was extraordinary,
ranging from the ready insolence
of her arrogant dance with the
gnomes, and the agony of her
“toothache dance” after the curse
of the gods, to the quiet emotion
of the love scenes.

The role of Louise, danced by
Eleanor Borden ’46, was very ex-
Her adoration of
Rodrigo, and her despair over the
discovery of her lover returning
from a robbing raid, were well in-
terpreted, although the »majority
of her dancing relied a little too
much on poses and long graceful
walks to be completely effective.

The part of - Aunt Sourpuss,
done by Ellen Harriman ’46, was
highlighted by expert caricature.
Her simpering coyness as she con-
sented to dance with a tall hand-
some stranger (the Devil) in the
first scene, contrasted sharply
with her real grief in the tragedy
of the last scene, showing her to
be an excellent actress as well
as a master of dance technique.

Nina Montgomery ’45, playing
the Devil, danced with a strikingly
dashing lightness. Although she
necessarily remained in the back-
ground throughout most of the
play, she was continually conscious

of the part, her motions and facial

expressions indicating
impersonation.

Further subtlety of_interpreta-
tion was shown by Ann Gillilan
746, as the Village Idiot. _In spite
of the lengthiness of the solo
dance in the first scene, the pathos
of the Idiot’s love for Louise as
he offers her a branch in token

complete

of his adoration was moving The’

awkward, rhythmic unevenness of
-the movements in the “mad”
dance: was also extremely: telling.

.. Although..cast—in-.minor-
Mary Dumm, instructor in Biology,
as the Greedy Wizard who at-
tempts to cure Rodrigo’s tooth-
ache, and Estelle Morrison ’45, as
a companion thief, gave their parts
an originality and _ individuality
which showed real ability and
feeling for the dance.

The choruses of Gnomes, Wood
Sprites, Villagers and Harvesters,
danced by the rest of the Club, in
spite of a tendency toward over-
stereotyped movement, provided @

Prevuricated Prognostications Hit Campus

As the Oracular Ouija Board Speaks Forth



Because of heartening results
students have recently been at-
taining with the ouija beard, rep-
resentatives of the departments
of Philosophy and Psychology
have decided to quiz the supernat-
ural systematically. .The faculty,
when consulted, stated that the
ouija board was functionally
sound. Mr. Weiss, in fact, assures
us that it is an admirablé instru-
ment for answering any questions
that philosophy can’t.

Ouija boards are rampant. They
are rather contrary, but with ex-
ams where they are, many feel
that any answer is better than
none, -~Fhe ouija~ board tends to
aim above the target on marks, an
admission which must be made in
interpreting this scientific investi-
gation. However, our questions,
‘like exam marks, are too pressing
to be ignored, and cannot be ans-
wered by anything at all.

We humbly inquired of our ouija
‘board how it felt, whether it-would
tell us anything, and whether or
not it was there. It felt fine, had
lots to say, and was on the beam.
With thoughts wavering between
ideo-motor action and the stupen-;
dousness of our.task,.wé posed the
fateful question, “When will drink-
ing be allowed on campus?” Un-
equivocally the answer came—
49870.” (So far so good. “Will we
ever become co-educational?” This
-drew....forth..a--vehement “NiO!”
Feeling a little depressed, we ask-
ed it if there would still be a Bryn
Mawr in 9870 and it said “yes.”
We asked, “What will it be like?”
Then came the answer, “DULL.”

tions, we asked if it knew what it
was saying and it assured us it
did.

We abandoned ‘this mournful
subject, and raised the question,
“What.was the best class in the

Not believing our psychic vibra-|-

history of the college?” The ouija
board felt strongly that 1899 was
the best class. We demanded to
be told why, but all the ouija board
would say was“SSHH!” Hurt to
to quick, we humbly inquired what
ailed us. To this vital question all
that came forth was “WPG’—
(interpretations?). _We shouted
“Come, come!” whereupon it
spelled out “NO MEN.”

This was not all. We asked the
ouija board for a message, hoping
for consolation, and only got, “GO
4 WHY STAY?” “Is: that all?”
It said “no.” Its final word was

“Good-bye.”
Despair was settling down. The
experiment, expected to over-

estimate our wildest ambitions,
fizzled. Only one thing remained
to be done. “Ouija board, are you
telling the truth?” Salvation came
with the answer, “NO!”
