Of Land-Lease Bill



Show Ignorance of Bill
In Congress



In an attempt to bring the Lease-
Lend Bill to the attention of the
student body, and to sound out
campus opinion on the war situa-
tion, the following poll was taken:

Are you in favor of the Lease-
Lend Bill?

If yes—is it because—

a. Want to declare war today?
b. Believe aid short of war |

i possible?

c. Lend-Lease Bill makes it
possible for America to
avoid war?

d. British victory essential to
world democracy and our
aid vital to British victory?

e. Aid to Britain now essen-
tial to U. S.?

If no—is it because— .

Peas Coutiall Brings
Mayor of “Time’ Staff
To Give Defense Talk

a talk by Brandtz Mayor of the
Washington staff of Time Maga-

In a recent letter to Helen Resor,
Mr. Mayor said: ‘“‘Nobody_knows

is because nobody knows. if, or

of Guatemala, we don’t need tanks.
If we are to battle then across the
Texas plains, we don’t need skiis.
If Alaska turns from Seward’s ice-

find very little use for mechanized

Told by 2 Refugees

By Agnes Mason, ’42; Barbara
* Cooley, °42

“When I lived in Vienna,’ said
Mr. Ernst Waldinger, “I always
thought no weather could be worse;
but then I came to Philadelphia.”
Mr. Waldinger, a Viennese poet
and ‘socialist,-is now a member of
the Friends’ Refugee Group in
Haverford. Although he finds the
weather so uncongenial, both he
and Mrs. Hilde Narmorck, also of
Vienna and Haverford, . enthused
over the advantagés of American |
life.

Between the spring of ’38, when
she left Vienna, and this fall, when
she arrived in New York, Mrs.
Narmorck has. lived successively in
Czechoslovakia, Paris, and Mon-
temban in -unoccupied France.
Montembam, before the armistice,
was a village of 388 inhabitants.
Overnight it mushroomed to a pop-
ulation of ten thousand, as Belgian
and French civilians and soldiers
‘fled before German invaders. Barns
were used for living quarters, “and
one morning,” said Mrs. Narmorck,
“T looked in and saw a nursery of
babies sleeping in the manger.”

Mrs. Narmorck is attending Mlle.
Bree’s 17th century French litera-
ture course, Miss Gilman’s 19th
century French class, baby Ger-
man with Mrs. Jessen, and Miss
Marti’s first year Latin, where she
was delighted to hear one girl
compare a story by Livy with a
modern movie. She is impressed
by the ,relationship between
professors and students possible
under the American system. She
finds the educational standards in
both schools and colleges equally
high with those abroad. Ex-
perienced in teaching in Vienna
and Paris, she. is atténding
classes and studying American
methods in preparation for teach-

Duties Performed .
By Self-Government
President Reported

The President of the Self-Gov-
ernment Association is the head of



the executive board which sees that}

the rules of- the Association are
carried out. The President is re-
sponsible for the routine of the
board and shares with the board

responsibility for the judgment

passed on individual cases.

The President must check all
signing in ae and also weekend
slips every‘ week. Meetings with
the hall presidents and with the
executive board must also be he
weekly and all the ‘Miss -.B.’s”
whose cases are serious are seen
by the President of Self-Govern-
ment before presentation to the ex-

ecutive board. She is responsible }

for keeping the Self-Government
Association in touch with the Col-
lege Administration. The College
Council is one of the avenues by

“twhich. this contact is made.

The most serious responsibility
of-the Self-Government President
is that of passing judgment. She!
is the one who always has direct
personal contact with Miss~B, and
reports her case to the board. Miss
B. can herself appear before the
board. The board makes the final
decision, but the case presented by
the President should be in, the
truest possible light.

ophomores Battle Freshmen Over hie
Desire to Destroy True Motive of Action

\



By Barbara Herman, ’43

Last Wednesday, ostensibly for
the purpose of torturing the fresh-
men into revealing the animal, but
in reality urged on by a primitive
desire to wreak havoc and destroy
property, the Sophomores _ in
Rhoads began a four day reign of
terror. :

The first night was the most vio-
lent. One freshman, inspired to
grim retaliation by the state of her
room turned on her radio full
blast, locked her door and disap-
peared. Frantic Rhoadsians were
seen wandering up and down the
halls in all states of undress cry-
ing forlornly, ‘““For God’s sake, won’t
somebody turn off that radio?”

‘while hordes of Freshmen roved

around hooting defiantly.
However, the spirit of battle was
soon exhausted by order of the
Dean, and in the following nights
the now lamb-like Sophomores in-
dulgently settled down to concoct-

| ing—amusing—games-~-for the ex-

pectant Freshmen. Chairs were
spirited out of people’s rooms and

poetic. clues- were.placed_around_to}

help the Freshmen in their search.
Pictures of the Freshmen’s men
were taken and a Mr. Rhoads. Hall
of 1941 contest was held in which
curiously enough the picture that
won first prize was a surrealist
drawing completely incomprehen-
sible to everyone. ie



The last night the dresser draw-
ers were exchanged and one poor
Freshman found the drawer with
all her underwear under a sofa in
the’smoking room. Her problem

became acute since she was unable
to get the drawer back into her
room while her male guest was
there, and she didn’t want to leave
it in the smoking room for the edi-
fication of other visitors.

Friday night in a fit of despera-
tion two Sophomores, at three in
the morning, pulled out ‘their first
year psychology notes and tried to
hypnotize the sleeping Freshman.
The only response they got was “Is
it a chicken?” “Yes.” “Se a
lobster?” -..“‘Yes.”

That the Freshman finally be-
came inured to the whole thing is
proved by the fact that a Yale polo
cap belonging to one: Freshman
rested on the head of M. Carey
Thomas’ statue in the library for
three days before she even discov-

ered ao gone.

putting things like oysters and on-
ions in people’s shoes. A model
young Freshman was locked in a
room with several cans of beer,
which significantly or not ‘were
empty when they let her out and a
Sophomore was baptized by the con-
tents of a coco-cola bottle.

To Be or Not To Be

This year a representative committee nominated candidates for
president of the Self-Government and Undergraduate Associations.
These candidates were then put before the Junior class. Adding to
or changing the list as it saw fit, the class then put before the col-
lege the four candidates for each office in the customary form. Of
what value is the nominating committee ?

One likely result of such a committee is that all discussion of
candidates occurs in the committee meetings and the class remains
as ignorant as it Was before the committee began its work. The in-
dividuals of the class are also apt to feel that their responsibility in
voting has been transferred to the members of the committee and
that the latter only have to weigh pros and cons. If the hall repre-
sentatives on the committee report to their halls, then the voting will
probably be done from the point of view of the halls and not from
that of the class as a whole.

The value of a nominating committe is that it makes for delib-
erate consideration of candidates and lessens the chances_of over-
looking good people. Since the classes are so small at Bryn Mawr,
this-result-should_be possible without a committee.

A class meeting might be held a week before nominating to
explain the necessary qualifications, to’ report those already in the
particular organization and to stir the class as a whole into consid-
ering their votes. The meeting for the nomination of the four
candidates should be extended over two days. ‘The first would be
for nominations and discussion, the second for any additional nom-
inations thought necessary and for final election of the four
candidates.



, Higher Education

It would be a shame for undergraduates in this college to take
a Time current events test. They might get an-average of 20.

Reaction to the Lease-Lend Bill was most generally “What is

.it?” Qther remarks frequently returned to the pollers were: “O, I

don’t know anything, do I have to decide now?” “Those questions
pin you down too much,” “I am confused, 1 can’t say.” One
awakened individual added to her query, “But we can’t be confused
any more.” :

The poll questions were not made for specialists. Their chief
purpose was to rouse in undergraduates some sense of their own
ignorance. For all our professed intentions, the newspapers still

Benedict Discusses
Place of Individuals
In Primitive Society



Goodhart, February 24. — Dr.
Ruth Benedict in the third of her
series of lectures in anthropology
continued from last week with the
discussion of individual behavior in
the social order.

The psychologist and the anthro-
pologist in studying individual be-
havior in a culture do not consider
the interrelationship of heredity
and environment, but form a
synthesis of three factors: indi-

vidual energy, achieved through |

heredity; the idiosyncratic inci-
dents of daily life; and the social
order.

Of these factors the social order
is the simplest for study, but in
order to arrive at any conclusion
about the individual, all the phases
of the social order must be ex-
amined. The Freudians emphasize
the sexual phase, but for illustra-
tion Dr. Benedict chose the eco-
nomic phase.

Economics, surprisingly complex
even in the most primitive cul-
tures, may be divided into two
types. In the first, called the “Fun-
nel System,” all that a community
produces falls into the large end
of a funnel, coming out at the
narrow end to the men who have
- the original wealth. This set-up
is found not only ‘in industrial so-
cieties, but also in primitive cul-
tures where there is no thought of
investment. All that is necessary
is land-ownership, rents, and
money-lenders. The “Funnel Sys-
tem” leads to rivalry among both
the “haves’sand the “have nots.”

The other type of economics is
the “Siphon System.” Here wealth
is channeled away from the points
of greatest concentration. Wealth
is fluid, and a man’s prestige rests
not upon what he has, but upon
what he has given away.

Another aspect of the social or-
der which Dr. Benedict used for
illustration is religion. Men set
up gods in their own form, so re-
ligion is a “sensitive plate upon
which people have inscribed their
feelings.” Then, too, since primi-
tive religions have no Bibles, there
has been room for much individual
-interpretation of the old beliefs.
In highly synergic cultures relig-
ious ceremonies are community en-
terprises — social pleasures and
worship mingle—, whereas in so-
cieties. of low synergy gods are

personally invoked to harm one’s

enemies. The full development of
the latter is Sorcery, where fear is
imminent, where: there is no posi-
tive good but only an occasional
renouncement of evil.

Our society is dominated by

acquisitiveness, and our economics

are a form of the “Funnel Sys-
tem.” Therefore, we
have a comparatively low synergy.

The three approaches to human
behavior, then, are interdependent,

almost indistinguishable. Together
they mould the plastic psychologi-

cal equipment of the human being.

miliar. Ruth Alice Davis as the
dreamer carried off her part with
professional gestures and timing.
In the next scene, Ruth Alice’s
projected self, a dreamy-eyed bru-
nette, floated into a sophisticated
night club, and the audience was
served with. a mixed punch of
torch-songs, swing, lantern night
processions and a faculty meeting.
When Nichols, Shortlidge and
Sherwood appeared in flesh, blood
and braid, the atidience roared.
When the Haverford lads told the'
Bryn Mawr girls that they ain’t
got so much, the audience was
bravely delighted. Mr. Watson was
somehow painted up to look just
like Mr. Watson, and Mrs. Man-
ning somehow sounded just like
Mrs. Manning. The rest of the
faculty, weighted under wigs,
failed to put themselves across as
well.

Nancy Scribner was a charming
'Mr. Gillet. Sylvia Maynard was
a liquid Pettsian dancer, and with
ithe gum-chewing of Nanny Mitch-
ell, the be-tuniced trippings of this
Bryn Mawr dance group were quite
funny against the background of
scotch and soda.

There is plenty of Latin in 1944.
The Rhumba, the Conga and the
Beguine. The Rhumba Chorus, it
is true, was a little hippy for the
blue serge of its masculine half
and the last Conga slowed down
the pace of the show. But the
choreography of the dances was
well worked out—under the direc-
tion of Ruddy Hale. Unlike many
a Freshman show, the dances were
not a series of Rockette kicks with
change--of. costume as principle
variation.

Credit for unifying the facets
that are Bryn Mawr into a moving,
varied show goes to Anne Hey-
niger, director of the production;
credit for setting them to music,
to Kay Tappen. For the ingenious
conduct of the poster auction,
thanks are due Nancy Scribner and
Lois Mason.. Priscilla Stern, who
directed lighting, and Lois Mason,
stage manager, helped to make
the production an unusually fin-

Mrs. Diez and Mrs. Jessen, and
the German department of Haver-
ford. He acquired his first knowl-

edge of English in Vienna when
he was translating an anthology
of Modern American verse into
German. His early poetry was
analogous to the. English Roman-
tics, but lately he has simplified
his style so that it is more in keep-
ing With the subject matter which
interests him now — modern life,
and the American scene. He finds
his present style closest-to*Edward
Arlington Robinson and Edna St.
Vincent Millay. An interesting
light into how a poet works can be
seen in the story he told of how
one of his recent poems evolved.
As he was listening to Thomas
Kelly speaking at the Haverford
Meeting on the Christmas spirit
as against the spirit of violence, a
plane passing unseen overhead
seemed to Mr. Waldinger to under-
lie each sentence. Later“he wrote
a poem about it, which he trans-
lated into English with the help of
Mrs. Weiss. When Mr. Kelly, who
was professor of philosophy at
Haverford, died a few weeks later,
the poem was read at the funeral.

Mr. Waldinger, who fought in
the Austrian Army in 1914 and
was wounded four times, does not
believe that Hitler can be stopped

allies, pledging that Germany will

ished one. :

The conclusions to be drawn
from this year’s show are very
clear. First, Freshmen have a
way of setting the same subject
matter to music in a new way each
year. Second, the college loves to
see itself on the stage. Third, the
college loves to see the faculty on
the stage. Fourth, the class of
1944 has more glamor than its
opening song would admit, and last,
but fully apparent, the Bryn Mawr
night-mind does entertain thoughts
of. wife-and-motherhood.

today is that individuals carry out

state, since the enterprise of the
individual is completely determined
by the government, trade becomes
a political weapon. No scope of

methods. The result of any at-
