Students Give
Cheque to Hare
For Ambulance



Program Features Music
Of Beethoven, Grieg
And Hindemith

Goodhart Hall, Wednesday, Oc-
tober 30.—The Undergraduate En-
tertainment Committee sponsored



a very ‘successful benefit perform-
ance on behalf of the Bryn Mawr
College Ambulance for Great Bri-
tain. Five artists and a group
from the Academy of Vocal Arts
kindly contributed their services.
Mr. Hare, the head of the British
American Ambulance Corps in
Philadelphia, was present, and
during the course of the evening a
cheque for the amount of 1050 dol-
lars was handed to him, to pay for
thé ambulance which will be sent
in the name of Bryn Mawr College.
An extra 300 dollars will be raised
outside the college to pay for the

‘upkeep. A widely applauded sur-

prise was the announcement of a
second cheque of 1350 dollars, con-
tributed anonymously by a member
of the college faculty and his wife.
This will supply another much-
needed ambulance for Great Bri-
tain.

_ The musical programme was long
and varied. Hindemith’s “There
and Back,’ a modern comic fan-
tasy, was the most unusual selec-
tion offered. It was presented by
the group from the Academy of
Vocal Arts. ‘The action progressed
from a sneeze to a murder
suicide and then reversed from a
suicide to a murder and ended up
with a sneeze.. The music had a
rather symmetrical rhythm which
fitted in with the actions of the
characters, but the fantasy lacked
melody, the singing ybeing more in
the nature of a recitative. The
brass instruments. predominated

throughout, lending to the surreal-

Dialogue and Staging

Feature in Latin Play



Dunklee Rollicks. With Spirit;
Caricatures, Burly Slaves
Win Audience



By Alice Meigs Crowder, 42
Goodhart, November 2. — The
Latin Play, ably directed by Miss
Lake, moved to a swift and ingeni-

ous conclusion with superior ,cos-||
tumes, scenery and properties. The
play had a tendency to drag largely |:
because of the absence of the usual |

Gilbert and Sullivan music and the
inaudibility of the players. The
dialogue in which the usual forced.
gutter slang was replaced by allu-
sions to present day interests such
as the campaign and the little man
who wasn’t there appealed strongly
to a receptive audience.

The play which was neatly trans-
lated from Plautus into modern
English by Louise Allen and Eliza-
beth Frazier, both ’42, gained from
simplification, of complicated side
plots and extra characters usually
seen in the traditional production.
The plot chosen turned upon the
necessity of exposing a_ prodigal
son’s misdeeds and) extravagances
to his rich father who had returned
unexpectedly from a. shipwreck.

The actors accepted this chal-
lenge. Their performances were
good although perhaps unjustly,
the most highly caricature per-
formances were forced into great-
est prominence. Dorcas Dunklee,
’42, as a city slicker, informer, and
hanger on, carried the burdén of
sustaining the rollicking spirit of
the play and coordinating its vari-



Fashion F ellowships
Offered to Seniors



The Tobe-Coburn School for
Fashion Careers, Rockefeller Cen-
ter, New York, is again offering
Five Fashion Fellowships to mem-
bers of this’ year’s senior class,
each Fellowship covering a year’s
tuition of 700 dollars. The win-
ners in last year’s class were from
the University of Indiana, Oberlin,
Wellesley, The University of To-
ledo, and the University of Colo-
rado. Eighty percent of that class
had positions waiting for them at
graduation, and the School is con-
stantly receiving requests for their
graduates ‘that it is unable to fill.
- Members of the senior class who
wish to apply must mail registra-
tion blanks and answers to the first
test questions to the School on or
before, December 10. One more
set of test questions and a research
project will complete the work.

Work Camp Planned
For Draft Objectors





Speaking at Haverford College
Robert English, secretary of the
Young Friends’ movement, spoke
of a week-end work camp for boys
and girls which will start on Octo-
ber 25. The Wharton Settlement
House where the work is to take
place is in the heart of the negro
district of Philadelphia, and most
of the work will be allotted to
cleaning up slums in this neighbor-
hood.

The camp starts every Friday at
6 P. M., and lasts until Monday
M..- This plan is
designed for people who are forced
to work during the week. Time
will be divided between work, dis-

cussion, and study.

Details may be obtained by writ-
ing to Robert English, 1515 Cherry

Bryn Mawr Heads
Attend Conference
To Discuss Problems

Bryn Mawr was represented at
the five-college conference held at
Wellesley November 1 and 2, by
Miss Park, Mrs. Manning and Miss
Gardiner. Other colleges sending
delegates were Wellesley, Smith,
Vassar and Mount Holyoke. The
purpose was to learn what other
colleges are doing about entrance
and curriculum requirements, out-
side lecturers and daily work. “It’s
for pooling ideas, not deciding
things,” Mrs. Manning said.









The conference couid find no dif-
ficulties in the present system of
admission to colleges, nor deter-
mine any workable substitution for
the Junior Year abroad.

The experiences of the colleges
in the five- and six-day week
differed. Our week is divided into
five classdays, and as a_ result
Wednesday afternoon is overloaded
with classes that would otherwise
meet on Saturday. Vassar, which
also has egly a five day week, di-
vides the extra day’s sessions be-
tween Tuesday, Thursday and Fri-
day afternoons.

Wellesley has not eliminated the
sixth day, but has proportioned
classes between all six. In Smith
the six-day week has worked well
since everyone, including faculty
and advanced students, has two out
of the six days free.

When the language require-
ments were discussed, the delegates
vacillated between having none at
all, or two as at Bryn Mawr. All
agreed that the requirement should
be finished quickly so that the stu-
dent will be able to use the lan-
guages in her work.

Speakers Cover Various
Aspects of Problem



Goodhart Auditorium, Monday,

November 4th. — Responstbility in
Freedom was the subject of the
Student Assembly held this morn-
ing. Mary Meigs, ’39, Instructor in
English, Louise Morley, ’40, secre-
tary” of the International Student
Service, Susie Ingalls, ’41, Virginia
Nichols, ’41, Catherine McClellan,
’42, and Margaret Shortlidge, ’41,
were the speakers,

Charlotte Hutchins, ’41, presi-
dent of the Undergraduate Asso-
ciation, introduced the speakers,

explaining that the purpose of the
assembly: was to challenge the au-
dience to consider for themselves
the meaning of democracy, freedom
and responsibility. We are, both
faculty and undergraduafes, part
of an academic Seager Miss
Meigs declared. In college we are
being trained under the best scien-
tific conditions, but “unlike real
guinea pigs, who can only transmit
their superior qualities to poster-
ity, we have a conscidus responsi-
bility.” We are an unspecialised
class and make our judgments
“with no commitments.” It is our
duty to keep our freedom of choice.
As we listen and acclaim truth
where we hear it, we must not c6n-
vince ourselves that defeat of one
party means that truth will be lost.

Freedom of expression, and an
individual’s responsibility under it,
were discussed by Susie Ingalls,
’41, Editor of the COLLEGE NEws.
In wartime this freedom is threat-
ened by censorship, and we must
realize that its denial is dangerous.
We must work not only to preserve
freedom of expression, but to fulfill
our responsibility to it by main-
taining intact our liberty of draw-
ing conclusions from the material
which it offers us.

Virginia Nichols, ’41, president
of Self-Government, examined fur-
ther the relationships between re-
sponsibility and freedom. To know
responsibility, we must truly evalu-
ate privilege.. We must cease to
accept its existence casually, and
must beware,of thinking that it is
an inheritance of inalienable rights.
Privilege confers responsibility,
and “assists us to translate abso-
lute freedom into terms of a free-
dom which does not interfere with
the freedom of others.” As the
balance between right and privi-
lege is struck, responsibility is cre-
ated and cannot be denied,

Bryn Mawr Varsity Downed 3-0 in Fast
Game With Beaver; B. M. Second Victorious



Thursday, October 31.—Beaver’s
Varsity topped Bryn Mawr at 3-0
in the fastest game Bryn Mawr
has had this year. The visitors
fielded and controlled the ball so
well and had such a determined
spirit that there was no beating
them. Bryn Mawr took the offen-
sive many times and flew around
the field with a great deal of en-
ergy, but their usual team work
eould-not- be seen--under~fire from
the superior Beaver team. All|*
through the game Beaver had the
upper hand and the three goals
were made by the team as a whole
as well as by the forwards’ pre-

cise ‘shooting ability.

Thursday, October 31.—The Bryn
Mawr -Second Team blacked out
the Beaver Reserves with a 6-0
score. Bryn’ Mawr’s forward line
took the lead early in the game and
made excellent triangle passes down
the length of the field, the goals
being made by four different play-
ers. Beaver retaliated with a few
spectacular single spurts, but the
star players were not backed up by
the team, so that the score was
completely one-sided for Bryn

Mawr.

YOUTH UNITE

Students of the world unite!

“Take matters in your own hands
and pull up a few of the rotted
stakes of academic, tradition.” This
is the advice of Roger W.’ Holmes
as voiced in the November issue of
the American Mercury. The first
fallacious idea that holds under-
graduates enslaved is the theory

that hard work is the only way
out. “Beyond a certain point
which is easily reached, the more
you work, the poorer the results.”
“What about marks,” you whisper
hoarsely, “‘what about my marks?”
Well now, after all, marks don’t
measure personality—I mean they
can’t get at the real you by giving
you a forty-seven in biology. Any-
way if you follow the Holmes ad-
vice and really plan your time
carefully there won’t be much space
in your life for worrying about
marks or even much time to do
anything about getting any. Take
an afternoon or evening off about
seven times a week, plan on three
afternoons for open air exercise,
three evenings for movies, three
for concerts and three for plays.
You may flunk the orals and a
couple of courses, but the roses will
bloom in your cheeks and there



_won’t beeany nasty circles under

In fact “your college work will
benefit.” Now that sounds sort of
silly to you, doesn’t it. Well, the
whole trouble with you is that
you’ve been listening to somebody
who thinks that classes are the
most important thing. Any old
silly billy can tell you what’s wrong
with that idea. Cut your classes—

' just cut them right out of your

life and settle down to the things
that really matter. After all if
the professor marks your paper be-
fore dinner you aren’t going to pass
the-course any way. Your liberal

perspective is the thing that no-|*

body can touch—so broaden your
horizon. If the college gets nar-

Balking Poll







A poll was once taken of Bryn

Mawr Alumnae and we think the
results illuminating. They were
asked the following questions:

Have you children?

Are you single—married?

What influenced you most in your

decision?
Relations
Labor
Business conditions
Family tradition
Personality

How did his proposal affect you?

Favorably
Unfavorably
Not at all

What are the main issues?

The main issues were sovereign
rights and private enterprise.- Ac-
cording to the answers received
(quoted from a_ chapel
three years ago) 50 percent were
married and 75 percent had babies.
Obviously. the. majority of pro-
posals had no effect or: were un-
favorably received.



The Great Impersonation
An answer to anything. That’s
what Student Service, Ltd., ghost
writers offers. Submit the prob-
lem of your paper, add any speci-
fications as to footnotes and
bibliography, stipulate your mark,
wait for the mail on the fateful
morning your paper is due, rush
it from the mail table to your pro-
fessor’s desk, and your week-end
can be safely spent at Princeton.
_So far so good. Nice to havea
staff of doctorates at work on your
philos.’ paper. But think of the
games you could make them play.
For instance, a papér-on The Out-
come of the Present War, or Where

is America Going? or God.
But Student Service, Ltd., con-

cerns us very deeply. Clearly it -

presents a lucrative field for Bryn
Mawr graduates and we say with

pride that we think them qualified |

for women, and that answers the
most pressing problem.

AFTER T

DEEP THOUGHT

‘On this side,’ said the-sight-
seeing guide, ‘you see a dog. And
on the other side, you see the owner
of the dog.” And_ everybody
laughed.

It is a lamentable state of af-
fairs when people, young people,
turn their minds to and are amused
by such fun-making, while there
are such weighty problems _beg-
ging the world’s solution. There
is much ‘to be’ done. Problems
which must be met. Hatred rides
rampant. Labor vies with capital,
Jew with Catholic, idealism with
defeatism.

These are problems zacing Amer-
ica today. Political parties and

We belong to our chosen President
and he to us for four long years.
We must use the instruments at
hand to build a new hope for our
country and its destiny. We hope
that our tomorrow will dawn in
peace. In peace we shall fight for
the goal—of peace. ,

To resolve the’ problems shaking
the very foundation of the world
we propose to resolve all internal
hatred and abolish the conflicts
that are eating away the heart of
America. So delicate a task de-
mands careful handling. No bick-
ering or injustice can lead us out
of our dilemma. It can only be
accomplished by the application of
reason and thought.

Opinion

Dear College News:

We feel outraged at the recent
attitude taken with regard to. In
our opinion, under fhe circum-
stances, there is no excuse for this
attitude which has been taken by.

In any community this must be
done and only too often is. We
feel that as our opinion, it seems
to us.

But do not







misunderstand us.

ply in all situations of this kind.
In any situation where people are
involved, it must be remembered
that people are involved.

To be specific, we suggest:

(1) That each member must not
moor his boat farther away than
two feet and must remove nothing
from the locker room.

(la) That the sooner people are
notified about things, the earlier.

The policy of the News with re-
gard to this has, to us, seemed
weak if not vacillating. We have
long felt the need for a letter such
as this one. We know it should
be here, because it is essentially.

Commodities, ft. kind we’re taught,

Have gaps around which can’t be
bought.

Their awful chains and substitutes,

Have changed us all, through fear,
to mutes,

You buy them in a market where

There isn’t any market there.

Producers make their friend con-
sume

In this abstract peculiar room.

They live on margins and diminish
Until five oranges they finish.
The proverb |says the last is best,
But not the economics test!

NUTS and BOLTS
Football

The football teams of the big
eastern colleges seem. to be falling
off. Teams are not as good as they

used to be, and attendance at the
games is~not. what. the. old .grad
knew. ~ Possibly. this..is. because
football has become: a scientie
game. The rough and _ tumble,
breakneck work of twenty or thirty
years ago has resolved itself to a
more carefully planned, less lib-
eral sport. :

_ For example, in a recent game
both teams. spent the entire time
‘kicking up and down the field. It:
has become an exhibition to see
how many ballots each man can
kick for. Electoral votes are moré
mixed up now. A man may kick
verbally, but no more blood and
thunder battles. Players hide be-

Second Team Wins
With Triangle Passes

Hin and Zuruck” Given
By. Vocal Arts Group





Continued “rom Page One Continued from Page One

Then, when the Bryn Mawr Team
got “Hin” it went “Zuruck.” As
everyone sneezed out “Anassa kato
kalo kale” the finish started with

-a bang. The Beaver forwards
backed down the field instead of
up’ so that Bryn Mawr scored the
sixth goal first, as Beaver’s whole
team had the ball going the wrong
way at the same time. The Bryn
Mawr triangles passed out on the
way down the field but undaunted,
they finally took the lead early in
the game, and the goal shot four
people. Beaver was definitely out-
blacked by Bryn Mawr and showed
inferior artificial legs. When the
starting whistle finally -ended the
game a large’ number of Beaver
rooters appeared to watch the
players go There and Back—kale

Mrs. Plum, Danish Mezzo-so-
prano, sang a number of songs the
best of which were ‘“Pleurez mes}
Yeux” by Massenet and “The Gold-
en Nenuphar” by Granville Ban-|
tock. In these her low tones were|
pure and each note was clear and
well defined. Her expression dis-
played both contrast and depth of
feeling.

Mr. Alwyne’s first selection was
a Ballade in the form of Variations
on a Norwegian Theme by Grieg.
Each variation was’ well brought |
out and the composition was played
with force. Mr. Alwyne reappeared
later to play three short pieces by
Debussy.

Madame Luboshutz rendered an
adequate interpretation of Beeth-
oven’s Sonata No. 7, but she was
somewhat handicapped by. a_ too
loud accompaniment.
