Freshman Week Discussed
With Group Insurance
And May Day

The first meeting of the college



council this year was held at: Miss}

Park’s house on October 12. Mem-
bers of the council include: heads
of the four big tollege organiza-
tions and the News,—class—presi-
dents, representatives of the alum-
nae and faculty, and Miss Park,
Mrs. Manning, Miss Ward, Mrs:
Collins, and Miss Petts.

and-has no actual powers. «

_ The bearing of the European war
on big May Day was discussed by
Miss Park. Other topics considered
the
week, the group
funds for the new athletic building,

were: success of freshman

insurance plan,

and, plans of the alumnae associa-
tion. | :

Miss Park explained that further
student discussion of May Day
would have to wait until after the
meeting, on October 19, of the
board of directors; who underwrite
the expenses. The action of the
board is always linked wp--with
their interpretation of student
opinion, and they also consider the
probable effect of outside factors on
May Day’s financial success.

All discussion, Miss Park contin-
ued, should be purely on a college
basis, for exaggerated war-con-
sciousness must be avoided at all
costs. Whether the college can
spare the time_and-whether the en-
terprise will succeed financially are
the relevant considerations.

In the discussion of freshman

week, the council agreed that the

A.S.U. Plans Recast
of Neutrality Aims





Common Room, Oct. 12.—At an
open meeting to discuss American
neutrality, the Bryn Mawr chapter
of the A. S. U. voted to support
the general provisions of the Ad-
ministrative Committee’s national
peace policy, but to recast them in
a more specific form.

The present policy urges “the

strengthening of American de-
mocracy .athome”..as_the surest
means to avoid war. It favors the
President’s proposals to revise the
Neutrality Act, closer collabora-
ion with the Latin American de-
mocracies, aid to the victims of
war, and the cessation of. “Ameri-
can participation in Japanese ag-
gression.”
_ The actual wording of the policy
was considered vague and unsatis-
factory and it was decided that
the Peace Committee should re-
write the provisions and present
them as resolutions to be voted on
it a future meeting.



Barbara Bradfield, ‘Athenia’ Survivor,
| Sees ‘Submarine Patrol’ in Ireland



aq Pa

“Seventy people.i in a lifeboat, and
seventy of them seasick.” That
was the way Barbara Bradfield,
graduate student in Modern Eu-
ropean History, described her eight
hours in a lifeboat from the tor-
pedoed Athenia. She arrived at
Bryn Mawr after the opening of
college, .

Shé ‘and two friends had sperit
the summer bicycling in Belgium,
France, Germany, and Holland.
They reached London on the 22nd
of August and, after-the Caledonia
had been commandeered, secured
passage on.the Athenia, sailing
from Glasgow on September Ist.

War was declared on the 3rd at

11.15 a.:m., London time, and at

7.40 that evening the Athenia was
struck. “Immediately there was a
terrific list to port,” said Brad-

field, who was on her way to her

cabin at the time of the imipact.
At this. historic moment, -
walked to a,porthole, illegally open,
to see what was going on. Then

‘she did nothing for a couple of
--minutes. A woman saw her and,

watched the stairs. The lights had
gone out, and.there was danger of
people’s falling. To everyone who
came along she said, “The boiler’s
burst—get up on deck.” She
thought she ought to get there her-
self pretty soon. Finally three
Canadian boys came along with
flashlights and told her to get her
lifebelt while they watched the
stairs... After meeting her two

companions en route, she went to|.

ANDERSON, FENWICK CITE
TWOSIDES OF NEUTRALI TY!



Mr. Anderson,
Common Room, ‘Oct. 17.—“It is
impossible, by any legislation, to
insulate a country against the dam-
iing efects of a war abroad,” said
Mr. Anderson, speaking on the eco-
nemic ‘aspects of neutrality. War

ing abnormal expansion, inflation

Concerning the neutrality debate,
Mr. Anderson said that the eco-
nomic phases of the various amend-
mo2nts now before the senate were
not of as great importance as the
political effects of the proposed
neutrality laws. Economically, the
diference between these suggested
forms of legislation is practically
ezligible.

Miss Ruth Schindler
Heads Modern Dance

For the coming year, the Modern
Dance Group has secured the serv-
ices of Miss Ruth Schindler, who
has studied and performed with
Mikhail- Mordkhin, Humphrey and
Weidman, Louis Horst and Martha
Graham. While in New York at
the Neighborhood Playhouse, Miss
Schindler directed group dances
and taught the relationship of
movement to acting. She is now
secretary of the Philadelphia Danc-
ers’ Assotiation and chairman of
the Dance Center of Philadelphia.

Reviews in the Philadelphia news-
papers have often commended Miss
Schindler’s ability. The Philadel-
phia Evening Bulletin writes,
“Possessed of an excellent tech-
nique and a fine sense of composi-
tion and style. ... Breadth of her
background and understanding is
large. . . . Her dance to Raskin’s
American Dream was fresh, point-
ed, and admirably defined. . . Her
versatility and range o con-
tributed further to an excellent
performance.”







The plans for the year will con-
sist of informal dance demonstra-|

tions with visiting dancers, and

the group will work towards the|
performance of a ballet written by}}

Schima Kaufman, well-known mu-
sician in the Philadelphia ‘Or-
chestra. If any of the dancers are
interested -enough there will be

extra work and a recital similar to

Normal Class
But for Size



Average Freshman is 17,
Of American Descent,
Local Origin:



Miss Julia Ward, Director of Ad-
missions and Assistant to the Dean,

reports that this year’s freshman
class seems just about the same as
any other, except for its immensity
(it out-numbers the seniors two to
one). Of its 164 members, includ-
ing 12 transfer students, six are
from foreign, countries: three from
Canada, one from China, one from
England, and one from France.
The average freshman is a month
older than her immediate predeces-
sor, and was very likely rated first
in her senior class at school.

The increase of population this
year is not wholly due to the size
of the freshman class. The plan of

‘|the Board of Directors to increase

the undergraduate body by 25 stu-
dents each year for four years has
been changed by various circum-
stances. The language houses made
it possible to increase the enroll-
ment by 16 in 1937. Last year’s
large class helped to fill Rhoads
South. Now Rhoads North is en-
tirely occupied but for 16 spaces,
instead of béing only half full.
Finally, Miss Ward explains, “the

upperclassmen who had expected to 2

study abroad have returned to
Bryn Mawr and they as well as the
unusually large freshman class
have again swelled the numbers of
resident students.”

The largest percentage of the
class of 1943 comes as usual from
“the long thin home, rectangle,”
bounded by. New York City and-its
suburbs—on—the north, Washington
on the south, and Paoli on the west,
Last year 46 per ba aa from
this area: 42 per cent represent it
this year. Outside this rectangle
the percentages are as follows, with
a noted increase in the numbers

from the west; Pennsylvania, 7 pér”

cent; New York, 7 per cent; New
England, 15 -per cent; the Middle
West, 15 per cent; the Far West,
5 per cent; the South, 5 per cent.

The statistics on racial stock
show that 56 per cent are of. the

all students, whether gradu-
ate or undergraduate:

Anarchy, Democracy—And the Activities’ Drive
The logic of the Activities Drive lies in the assurance that
each one of the projects covered will finally receive a larger sum
than if each went out and solicited for itself. In the interests of
efficient, organized action, the individual sacrifices the satisfaction

of personal donation to a particular project. More important,

-» ghe practically surrenders the right—or duty—to investigate each

project and decide which is most worthy of her contribution.

This holds specifically for outside charities, since money is alloted
to them at the discretion of the Peace Council.

To the argument that this centralized adipfhistration is
“undemocratic,” we answer, that anarehy, Not demyeracy, is char-
asthe thy the determination of each individual to go her ways

by herself. Democracy is characterized by the orgarttzation of
individuals into groups, on the, theory that the wishes of the
majority will thus be more effectively asserted. As in the case of
the Activities Byive, this has-always meant that the-individual
ordinarily gives less direct thought to problems confronting the
group (the relatiye worthiness of different charities}, and that
some minority axes do not get ground (a little known charity may
get no support). ‘

We are all in favor of these sacrifices for general efficiency.
But the efficiency argument should never be pressed to the point
of eliminating the possibility of minority action—which leads us
to disagree in one point with the drive eommittee.

Campaigns by small independent charities should not be
banned. Theythave a right to seek out the few students who may
be directly interested in~their project. ~The aim of the single
drive—to relieve sia never-ending series of pledge
cards—is not really destroyed, for those who have already given
the full amount they ean afford to be distributed at the discretion
of the Peace Council, should feel absolutely no responsibility to-
wards these minor drives. But, by allowing these organizations
to continue soliciting, a channel is reserved for the minority who

vided against the day when the Peace Council might override a
project for which the majority wished to assert direct support.



War and May Day :

Arguments about Big May Day have again been stirred up
on campus. We do not wish to argue out the opposing opinions
that “we should not play while England burns” or that. “we
must keep up our own morale and carry on as usual.” These
views are based chiefly upon emotions, and emotions cannot be
changed by argument. sca

What we. do feel very strongly is that. the enthusiasm on
and off campus this year is bound tobe less, and for ah event|
requiring all the cooperation May Day dees;the undivided atten-
‘tion and enthusiasm of the campus is needed. Off campus, those
| who: do. not. have daughters.-at Bryn Mawr, or some other close
-eonnection with the college ‘will be apt to’ ask why: they should



~~and other more immediate éxpéiises.

“spend money seeing May Day in ‘a year so fall’ of uncertainties,



Thus, from a materialistic}
point of view, we believe that it will be mote difficult than ever
for the college to break even.

Enthusiasm of audience and actors is a very large part of
Big’ May Day. Consider whether the European War may not
_ dampen this spirit, and: whether or not’ the college ¢ can give t to

Barbara Brad field

Sees ‘Submarine Patrol’



Continued from Page One

The second officez,. with an aviator’s
cap upon heen, was in charge.
Bradfield d-that “he cussed
every minute for the next eight
hours. He did it so hard he
couldn’t éven whisper the next
day. He had to breathe his words
out.” :

Of the 70 people, 12 were: chil-
dren under five. They had the
time of their lives. As one of
them put it, “We love to go boating
on the ocean,” ‘And,’ Bradfield
kept reiterating, ‘‘everybody was
seasick! Including the officers.
Even if you could stand the mo-
tion of the boat, the sight of every-
one else was guaranteed to fix you
up completely.”

We asked Bradfield if she saw
any enemy submarines. “I saw
nothing,” she said. “No enemy
ships, no submarines, no peri-
scopes, no, nothing.” They were
picked up’ at 3.30 the next morning
by t reighter Knute Nelson, af-
terfeight hours in the lifeboat.

The Knute-reached Galway a day
and a half after it had picked up
the survivors. Their welcome was
wonderful. . “It was like being
visiting royalty. They gave us
the keys of the city. People stood
ten-deep to watch us go up the
street. The children were let out
of school and watched us with the
tears falling down their faces. We
were taken to parties and teas and
given free hotel accommodations,
free food. ‘They wouldn’t even
take our fare on: the buses. Tues-
day night we went to the tiovies—
and saw Submarine Patrol.”

Saturday they sailed for Glas-
gow on the Irish Sea boat Royal
Scot. “The boat was, completely
blacked out. We.had six convoys,
and we zigzagged. How we zig-
zagged! You could feel évery turn,



rail. We heard a splash. We all
jumped as if we had been hit.
‘Well, if you must know,’ a sailor
said, ‘it was a pail of slops.’”

They reached Glasgow and sailed
for America the 18th of September
on the Orizaba, which docked in
New York on the 27th. “We were
on a corridor with 62 other women
and had boat drill every morning
at 10. Great signs allover the
place said, ‘When Bell Rings Ap-
pear on Deck.’ Sunday morning
the alarm went off at 6.30—from

4 Forum Series

The Philadelphia Forum has an-
nounced its program for 1939-40,
and has, at’the same time, offered
the college special reduction rates.
for the season tickets. This will be
the nineteenth year that the Forum
has brought to Philadelphia men
and women distinguished in every
field of the arts and sciences.
There will be. approximately 40
events on the program, the out-
standing nature of which is best.
suggested by listing a few of the
titles — Kirsten Flagstad, the Bos-
ton Symphony Orchestra, Argen-
tinita and her. Spanish ensemble,
the Jogss Ballet, William Bullitt,
Jan Masaryk, Elissa Landi, Stuart
Chase, William Lyon Phelps,
America’s Town Meeting of the
Air, and many of the best plays
starting with Maurice Evans’
Hamlet.

The prices quoted to the college
for the series are $20 for the fam-
ily circle, $27.50 for the balcony,
$30 for the orchestra pit, and $35
for the orchestra. These are a re-
duction of from $5.00 to $10.00 as
compared with the ordinary rates,
which in themselves are very inex-
pensive when one considers the cost
of each event if separately pro-
duced. The tickets may be put on
Pay Day and are to be ordered
through the Publications Office on
the second floor of Taylor Hall.



Art

Esquire’s art director Eric Lund-
gren, is proving the main attrac-
tion at the Art Alliance, 251 South
18 Street, despite the fact that
Hari Kidd is the exhibitor featured
on the bills outside. Reducing, a
series of four pictures showing a
fat lady ‘in her corset doing three
kinds of painful exercises, and then
lying down to eat chocolates, shows
particularly well the merciless, sa-
tirical quality of the artist’s work.
Only a few of his prints escape it.
The most effective of these is the
Blind Man, feeling his way through
darkness with uplifted face and
outstretched hand, the target on all
sides of bodiless empty white eyes.

-On the other hand, all the best of
the Hari Kidd paintings in the ex-
hibition arouse a primitive emotion
of horror. His small paintings of
heads are as conventionalized as
Nolde masks. The eyes roll vio-
lently into the corners. There is a
Newsboy calling extras, a8 red“and
dried as a mummy, and a_ head
called Lost, only half illuminated,
with irridegcent eye.

It is a~relief to find gay Vera
White water colors hung in the
next’ room: British red, white and
blue, and French blue, white and
fred. drench her paper in color.
Trouping the Colors on the King’s
Birthday is a series of pictures of
the red and blue Coldstream guards
lined up against the deep greenery

of a London Park. The other series
equally festive. One of the loveli-
est is Boulevard at Night, a blaz-
‘ng tent of flags hung over a Pari-
sian street against the night. sky.

of life represented at the Art Alli-

tance is Walt Luderback’s. ‘He han-|

was awarded a Frederick Sheldon
Scholarship, which he used to
travel in Europe and the southern

Algiers and Tunisia.

In 1932, after receiving his
M.A., he was made one of the first
members of the Society of Harvard
Fellows. The three years of this
Fellowship were spent in. work on
Mr. Miller’s special field, the Amer-
ican Revolution, and particularly
the life of Samuel Adams. The di-
rect result of these studies was
Mr. Miller’s first book, Sam Adams,
Pioneer in Propaganda. European
Fellow of the Societ¥in 1937, Mr.
Miller then returned to Harvard
to prepare for his Ph.D. He ad-
mits that interest in his study of
the American Revolution is hard to
maintain in the face of news from
Europe. The European War will
be won, almost certainly, he thinks,
by a. totalitarian force. Germany
has only to break England’s North

Soper Sees America
As Refuge for Art

U.S. Has Assumed Importance

As Haven for Paintings
oo Far, East

“America has takef the lead
over Europe in collecting Chinese
art,” said Alexander Soper, newly
appointed associate professor of.
History of Art. - Mr. Soper has
lately returned from the Far East
where he did research work: in old
Chinese painting.

It is this country’s task to fill
the gap in the study of Chinese art
left by the European. War, Mr.
Soper pointed out. We have the

money and the enthusiasm to main-
tain large art collections. China
herself is far more interested in
studying western civilization than
her own artistic past.

Mr. Soper went to Peking to





_ carry on his art research, as it is
one of the few places ‘in China

where learning still flourishes. The
present Japanese-controlled:govern-
ment in Peking is hostile to the
university, but is powerless to close
its doors because the university |

président is an American and Japan

does not want to antagonize. the
United States. The Chinese them-
selves, however, feel it is shameful
to study in comiort and ease whilg]}
their friends are being bombed in
another part of the country. Many
of them would like to transfer the
personnel of the university to the
south as a patriotic gesture.

It is difficult to examine Chinese
art in its native country, Mr. Soper
declared, because most of the art
pieces have disappeared since the
outbreak of the Chino-Japanese
War. The books in the National
Library have been -removed and
the paintings in the old Imperial
Collection which were sent to Nan-
king are now in an unknown lo-
cality. The art student may study
only ancient architecture or tomb
excavations, a practice to which the
superstitious Chinese are opposed.
Buddhist. figures cut out from the
sides of caves are taken from the
tombs. to—art-markeis._Unserupu-
lous dealers sometimes smash the
statues because they can get more
money from the sale of separate
pieces than from selling the figure
as a whole. Fortunately, there
are ample opportunities for study-
ing Chinese culture in Japan
where Chinese works of art have
been presérved in temple and priv-
ate collections since the fourteenth
and fifteenth centuries. ,

Mr. Soper refused to comment on
his first impressions of the Bryn
Mawr campus, saying he hasn’t
been allowed enough time to form
any definite opinions. He has no-
ticed that Bryn Mawr students put
their feet up on the desks in class
less than students at Princeton
(his alma mater), and that’ al-
though Princeton men often walk
around their campus barefoot, most
Bryn Mawr girls keep their shoes
on. .

Methods of Manufacturing Machinery



This year’s Physics’ Honors stu-
dents are spending two hours a
week learning how to make some of
their laboratory equipment. This
will enable. them.to be. relatively
independent in later. work. As Mr.
Powell, the head of the machinery
shop in Dalton, put it, “they won’t
need a trained mechanic following
around after them.”

Investigation showed us that the
machinery and glass-blowing shops
in Dalton basement do. not. exist
olely for the convenience of three
Physics’ Honors students and two
graduate students. They are ex-
tremely important appendages to
the scientific branch of the college.
The business of these two shops is
to keep the regular laboratory
equipment in condition, to build
apparatus which the various de-
partments cannot afford to buy,
and to make apparatus for original
experiments.

Twelve hours of work are de-
voted to the Physics, Chemistry,

Included in Physics’ Honors Training

By Agnes Mason, ’42

and Psychology Departments each
week. The Biology - Department
requires eight hours each week and
the Geology Department dnly one
half..day .a month. Mr. Powell
works in the machinery shop all
day and Robert Law half the day.
The other half he spends in. the
glass-blowing shop.

To the eye of -the layman, the
machinery shop is a very impres-
sive and quite inexplicable place.
its chief characteristics are per-
peiual motion, a whirring noise,
and innumerable gadgets, small and
large. ‘The glass shop is less in-
comprehensible. On one side of the
room there are shelves about six
feet long, containing glass,tubes of
varying diameters. On the other
side is a long shelf-like table to
which is attached a powerful gas
burner with. which “Robby” does
his work. Scattered about are
glass shavings thinner than cello-
phane, and, pieces of glass’ blown
into all imaginable shapes.

Six Months in Paris
Offered in Contest

This year Vogue is conducting
its fifth Prix de Paris contest. Any
senior who is interested should at-
tend the talk by Mrs. Rogers Dunn,
of Vogue, on Monday, October 23,
at five o’clock in the Deanery.

Opportunity is offered for a ca-
reer in feature-writing, fashion
reporting or merchandising. The
contest itself is considerably short-
er than -in previous years. En-
trants will be required to answer
only four quizzes and submit a
thesis if they \pass the quizzes.

Vogue is offering eight major
awards in addition to Honorable
Mentions. First prize will be a
year’s employment with Vogue, six
months in the New York office and
six months in Paris, if world con-
ditions permit; otherwise, a full
year in New York. Second prize
is six months in the New York
office. Third prize, a new Vanity
Fair feature-writing award, is six
months as a feature writer on
Vogue’s New York staff. In addi-
tion. Vogue will purchase five of
the best theses submitted. Honor-
able Mentions will also be awarded.

ORAL TAKERS MIX
ROMAN NUMERALS
WITH FRENCH KING







| (although the French orals pro-
uced some ridiculous translations,
the German exams were remark-
ably sensible, providing no boners
for the amusement of the commit-
tee. The Bryn Mawr undergradu-
ates must be really learning how to
translate German prosaically.

Most of the blunders on the
French exams arose from the in-
ability of the students to read Ro-
man numerals. The Greeks of the
fourth century were written. as
Greeks of the third, sixth and four-
teenth, centuries, ‘while a “French-
nian of the twentieth century” was
frequently translated as Francis
XX.

One girl translated “Les Grecs
ni fumaient ni ne lisaient de ro-
mans” as “the -Greeks- did not
smoke nor did the Romans—read”’
while another stated that. “the
Greeks neither smoked nor - read
about the Romans.” . Tobdeco Was
described as the only new art of
dissipation which moderns have in-
vented.



J: Oxtoby Discusses
Math- and- Politics

Deplores European Censorship
And Enforced Objectives

In Research ,
é

Mr. John Cope Oxtoby, M.A.,
newly appointed assistant profes- .
sor of Mathematics, has the tradi-
tional Dalton-red hair and an office
lined with Brancusi-like geometri-
cal forms. In addition to his first
and second year Mathematics
classes, Mr. Oxtoby teaches a grad-
uate class in the Topology of. Ab-
stract Spaces, tn which field he is
doing specialized research.

Mr. Oxtoby was graduated from
the University of California, and
got his M.A. there in 1934. He
completed two years of graduate
work’ at Harvard and has been a
Junior Fellow of the Society of
Fellows at Harvard for the last
three years.. The Society is an
experimental organization whose
twenty-four members, all working
in different fields, meet once a week
for reports and discussion.

Asked to comment on the Eu-
ropean situation, Mr. Oxtoby de-
plored the fate of Poland, where
some of the most active schools of
mathematies have. arisen since
1918. He hoped that the work of.
the Poles will not deteriorate as did
that of the Germans, and pointed
out the serious effects of intellec-
tual censorship and enforced ob-
jectives in research resulting from
the Nazi conception of Aryan and
non-Aryan mathematics.

Germany and France, once the
strongholds of mathematics, are
losing that distinction and the fo-
cus is shifting towards the United
States. One international mathe-
matics journel has been re-estab-
lished in America since its Ger-
man reviewers have been ‘forced ‘to
resign because of a government de-
cree which allows only German
articles to be reviewed.

Mr. ‘Oxtoby thinks of mathema-
tics: as a medium of -expression
which adds to the understanding
and interpretation é6f the natural
sciences. Less formally, he re-
marked that it was “ a way of sav-
ing you from thinking.”

The incorporation of the cash-and-
carry allowance is strongly recom-
mended by the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee. But a second
course has been suggested to Con-
zress and to the American public,
by ex-President Hoover and by
Charles ‘Lindbergh, apostles of the
“make war as polite as possible”
creed.

Mr. Hoover suggests that we de-
clare an embargo only on war
eoods of an offensive character.
Colonel Lindbergh seconds this
proposal, which would allow our
industries’ to continue the manu-
facture and éxport of purely de-
fensive machinery., This plan is
impractical and is recognized as
such,

With a vote of 65 in the Senate
