Yirka Hrazdilova Wins
Wilson Fellowship
For Study
by Susan Habashy, °54
Our president of the Internation-
al Relations Club, Yirka Hrazdi-
lova, came to America in 1948,
among the six Czechoslovakian
high school students bent on a
year’s experience in American high
schools—the last people to leave
Czechoslovakia legally, before_ the
descent of the Iron Curtain on their
country. Yirka’s scholarship took
her to the Wayland Academy in
Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, where her
main activity (apart from school
work) was giving speeches on her
country to ladies’ clubs, Rotary
club meetings, and other schools—
altogether some one hundred and
thirty speeches.
. Brno, which lies some two hun-
dred miles east of Prague, is Yir-
ka’s home town, and there she en-
joyed the usual Czechoslovakian
five years of elementary school fol-
lowed by five years in “Gymnas-
jum”,
Recalled to Czechoslovakia -in
1950 by her country’s government,
Yirka was faced with a momen-
tous decision. She decided to stay:
consequently returning to her
country now would involve her in
a five year prison term. “Although
you get free board-and-room,;-you
don’t get a tile bathroom and I
couldn’t stand it.” Her whole fam-
ily is there, but, she continued, “I
think it would be better if I stay-
ed: here.”
After high school in Wisconsin,
Yirka obtained a Rotary scholar-
ship to Ripon College, Wisconsin,
where she completed her freshman
and sophomore years. After that
she felt “A change of air was in
order,” so she transferred here to
Bryn Mawr College as a junior
last year.
Yirka has just been awarded the
Woodrow Wilson Fellowship. A
national one, it is based solely on
scholastic standing and provides
tuition and full expenses, thus en-

forthcoming productions, Boy With

These plays will be given on the

Boy With a Cart, Christopher

large cast. The play involves
people of the English countryside

parts’ along with a number of
equally important smaller ones.

Merion’s Suki Webb spent Tues-
day afternoon in a quiet domestic |
manner actually straightening up
newspapers when the good tidings
arrived. Quiet domesticity did not
last long, however. “Really, I was
being domestic in my room, be-
couse obviously I couldn’t study,
when Louise came in, bearing a
corsage box.”
Excitement broke loose, and the
Harvard Law Review, an assign-
ment, remains as yet unread. Suki, |
appearing in her new position, said:
“T don’t know how I shall ever live
up to the good job Louise has done
put it will be fun trying!”
She hopes that future plans will
include something in the Diplomat-
ic field, but before this, hopes for
some graduate study at Oxford.
More immediate plans? Summer
will find her at Camp, in Vermont,
and the Bryn Mawr Summer Camp

Horace Alwyne
There was little in Horace Al-
wyne’s pianoforte recital Tuesday
evening in Goodhart that could not
be described with superlatives. Mr.
Alwyne, Alice Carter Dickerman
Professor of Music and Director of
the Department of Music at Bryn
Mawr, displayed his sensitive touch
and versatility with a highly en-
joyable choice of program, from
Liszt to Villa-Lobos.
It would be difficult to pick the
highlights of the evening’s recital.
An intricate mixture resulted from
a Bach motive as interpreted by
Liszt in his Variations on a Mo-
tive from Bach’s Cantata “Weinen,
Klaken” and the Crucifixus of the
B minor Mass. The cathedral-like
quality of the music was especially
noticeable in the second, more sol-
emn part,
The Chopin selections, however,
were equally outstanding; Mr. Al-
wyne illustrated at least two tech-
niques beautifully. In the Ber-
ceuse, Op. 57, the exquisitely clear
quality of the notes was almost
like drops of water falling into a
pool of music. In the Ballade in A
Chorus Joins Club
At Trinity Concert
Thirty-eight members of the
Bryn Mawr College Chorus will
journey to Connecticut next Sat-
urday to present a concert with the
Trinity College Glee Club in the
college auditorium in Hartford.
The Chorus will offer as its part
of the program Litanies a la Vierge
Noire by Poulenc, Standchen by
Schubert, and Hear My Prayer O
Lord by F. Mendelssohn Barthol-
dy.
The combined vocal groups will
sing Vivaldi’s Gloria with Mary
Lee Culver and Rona Gottlieb as
soloists. A small joint group will
execute six Chansons, by Hinde-
mith.
The program is under the direc-
tion of Mr. Robert Goodale of
Bryn Mawr, and Mr. J. Lawrence
Coulter of Trinity.
The two colleges will again unite
in a concert on April 14, in Town
Hall, New ‘York, when the same
program will be preesnted.

flat, Op. 47, the playful, easy tempo
of the composition was highlighted
by the composer’s (and the pian-
ist’s) use of silence,
Mr. Alwyne also played the fa-
miliar Nocturne in F sharp, Op.
15, and the Fantaisie in F minor,
Op. 49. The swift change of pace
in the latter was skilfully and de-
lightfully handled.
Sonatine by Ravel began the se¢-
ond part of the program. Again
the change of mood and tempo in
the three movements —the quick
Modere, the Mouvement de Menuet,
and the Anime—was dextrously
performed, especially the contrast
between the more regular and _ se-
date Menuet, slowing toward the
end, and the spirited Anime.
Reflets dans l’eau*by Debussy
was a sensitively-drawn picture of
the shapes and thoughts passing
over the water, each time destroy-
ed by the eternally running waves
in the background. Mr. Alwyne’s
versatility from the simple to the
majestic was displayed in the sec-
ond Debussy selection, L’isle joy-
euse.
Concluding the program were
two selections ky Medtner—Son-
ate-Idylle, Op. 56, and the exciting
but brief Fairy Tale, Op. 26, No. 2.
The disciplined complexities of
counterpoint were especially en-
joyable and intricate, in the Pas-
torale movement of the former.
Mr. Alwyne also performed

16 in Goodhart auditorium.
Mr. Havelock is the author of
The Lyric Genius of Catullus and

The subject of his lecture will

The news came while Nano was

day afternoon, when a delegation
arrived and, well, her expression
was, “Overwhelmed!” Even Caru-
so, Nano’s pet canary bird, had an
“overwhelmed” expression — per-
haps from the amount of excite-
ment that went on in his mistress’
room! Excitement was certainly
present. It gave vent to its feel-
ings in unique poetry composition

received the presentation of a beer

Explaining her feelings, Nano
emphasized how overwhelming it
would be trying to follow in the
footsteps of someone like Marilyn.
Her greatest pleasure was in be-
ing candidate with three such
splendid people. “It made it all
so pleasant because of that.”
Nano’s activities are known to
everybody. She is a history major,
but with “lots of other courses.”
Future plans include graduate
study, but so far the comment was

key teams. At Bryn Mawr she is
a member of the basketball team
and the Chorus, and participated in
an Italian play and in the Junior
Show.
Bobbie Olsen has been with the

Counterpoint
In an Editorial several weeks ago, the News delineated
its own structure and function. One of the points made was
that because of its purpose and the type of information with
which it is concerned, it cannot serve as a medium for crea-
tive writing to any satisfactory degree. That is not the pur-
pose of a newspaper. :
At the same time, there is a definite and very real place
for creative writing on campus. Bryn Mawr needs and should
have a literary magazine.
~~ Unfortunately, no publication can exist without support.
No matter how much we enjoy reading a magazine, if the
enjoyment is to continue, support must parallel enthusiasm-—
indeed, become an integral part of it.
Bryn Mawr has a literary magazine—Counterpoint will
publish a Spring issue late in the year. But Counterpoint is
in desperate need of funds—funds that must be gained im-
mediately in the form of checks made payable to the Common
Treasurer and mailed to Diana Forbes in Rockefeller Hall;
funds that must be gained by subscriptions as well.
A literary magazine extends beyond the boundaries of
the college community which it represents. National maga-
zines often subscribe to student publications, in search of
talent for their editorial and fiction departments. It is not
a hollow claim that contributors to Counterpoint may one
day become noted literary figures. Marianne Moore is a
prime example of this, for of the poems appearing in the
anthology of her work today, several first were published
in the Bryn Mawr literary magazine of her undergraduate
days. Counterpoint is worth having and keeping, both as a
palpable, buyable piece of work, and as an institution.

DO YOU LOVE CHILDREN?
Are you interested in teaching and
sharing with them your experi-
ences in sports, crafts, songs, dra-
matics, swimming and just living
in a world with other people? If
you are, and if you are concerned
as well with the problems D.P.
(displaced persons) children have
in combining their new life in
America with the old one to which
their parents still cling, then Bryn
Mawr Summer Camp is the place
for you this July! The work
promises to be hard, but very re-
warding for you who really love
and enjoy children. And there’ll
be time to relax, too, and catch
your breath.
The camp is to be run on some-
what different lines this year —
with changes that we feel will
make it both more valuable for
the children and more successful
and enriching for the counsellors.
These changes are as follows:
Camp for D. P. Children
First, in answer to a real and
pressing need, we are running the
camp for D.P. children from the
Philadelphia: area, with the intent
of giving them a healthy, happy
vacation away from the city. The
Camp’s purpose is also to increase
their feelings of “belonging” in
America, through special trips to
places of community interest and
informal discussions, and of con-
tributing something to life here,
through programs of their native
music and dances, and dramatics.
' The camp season will run from
June 29th to July 25th, and one
group of about thirty children
ranging in age from 8-12, both
boys and girls, will remain the
whole four weeks. Thus we’ll really
have a chance to get to know each
other and achieve something.

Germany Desires
Peace and Unity
GERMAN REARMAMENT, PRE-
LUDE TO... ?—this was the
topic of a seminar presented by
the International House of Phil-
adelphia on Sunday, March 8. Amar
Singh of India, a political science
student at Haverford, acted as
moderator.
*We hardly ever speak of rearm-
ument in our official dealings with
this problem,” began Dr. Jo-
achim Jenicke, Second Secretary to
the Ministry of the Federal Repub-
hic of Germany, Washington, D. C.
“in 1945, after the complete col-
lapse ot Germany, the Allies and
Soviet Kussia agreed to eliminate
Germany as a military factor.”
Demilitarization occurred in fact
in spirit; it met with no re-
sistatge among the German people.
“They Were sick of war.”
Schumann Plan
In May, 1950, the Schumann
Plan developed from the reali-
zation that the old hostility of
Krance and Germany must be
reconciled if Western Europe were
to survive. This problem was too
large to be tackled en masse; it was
proposed to begin with the union
of coal and steel industries of
France and Germany under a su-
pranational authority. The plan
was heralded by enthusiastic re-
sponse in Germany; within a few
months the European Community
of Coal and Steel was a reality.
Then the Korean incident occur-
red. With the advent of Acheson’s
appeal for rearmament, France in-
troduced the Plevig Plan.
dens—heavy b But a
share in the fication of Europe
is a bargain for Germany.” She
cannot enforce national security
with no natural boundaries, with
only twelve divisions of men.
“We think that Germany is too
the framework of her borders. The
existence of a large army in Ger-
many would present serious diffi-
culties to democracy. That is why
we don’t want a national army.
That is why we want our army to
work as a part of the European
army.”
The aim of German foreign pol-
icy is three-fold, Dr. Jenicke stat-
ed. Foremost in priority is the
preservation of peace. “Germany
is not so interested in who should
win a Third World War but that
it should ever start.” The other
two aims are the unification of
Eastern and Western Germany and
the integration of Germany with
Europe.
“On the nineteenth of this month
the German Parliament will vote on
the European Defense Treaty,”
Dr. Jenicke concluded, “there is
no doubt that it will be passed.”

Current Events
West Finds Character,
‘Ideals of Stalin
Ambiguous
If a great man is one who cuts
a wide swath in history, Stalin
was a great man. This is the view-
point of Miss Robbins, who spoke
on Stalin at Current Events on
Monday night.
Stalin may have seemed incon-
sistent to many, stressed Miss
Kobbins, but actually he was striv-
ing to do what he felt would he
best for Russia. His personal char-
acter is difficult to judge, tor it is
hard to dissociate him from. all the
Russian leaders. We in the West-
ern world do not easily understand
what motivates this group, and,
therefore, what motivated Stalin.
The Russian world has not felt
that it must explain its every ac-
tion, as has the Western world.
Other Russian leaders, including
Alexander, have also seemed to
be hypocrites because of this fact.
In a brief outline of Stalin’s
background, Miss Robbins noted
that he was born the son of a
cobbler in Georgia in 1879. He
entered a seminary in 1893, but
was expelled in 1899.
Rebel
Stalin led an eventful life as a
rebel. He was exiled to Siberia
and escaped several times. To get
funds with which to finance the
Revolution, he held up a bank with
friends, which accomplishment
shows enterprise of a sort.
He met Trotsky shortly after
his first meeting with Lenin, in
1905. Yet he was never associated
with Trotsky, who was more a
middle of the road man than was
Stalin. Stalin was always extreme-
ly revolutionary and was not pre-
pared for compromise.
By 1912, Stalin was associated
with Molotov, now Foreign Min-
ister. Stalin founded “Pravda”, an
important Communist organ. Dur-
ing the first World War he was un-
able to serve due to a disability.
By 1924, Stalin was Secretary-
General of the party commitiee
and_an important power in-Com-
munist Russia. He succeeded
Lenin as leader after the latter’s
death in 1927.
Future of Russia
What is the future of Russia,
now that the man to whom she
looked as a leader for so long is
dead? At Stalin’s death, Georgi
M. Malenkov, formerly secretary
to Stalin, became the new Rus-
sian Prime Minister. In addition
to Mr. Molotov, Deputy Prime
Minister, are Lavrenti Beria, Inte-
rior Minister, Marshal Nikolai Bul-
ganin, War. Minister, and Lazar
Kaganovich. These men are ex-
pected to take over control of the
government along with Malenkov.
Miss Robbins feels that if sur-
rounding Russian-dominated coun-
tries think that the new govern-
ment is weaker than the old onc,
there will be ensuing revolt. There
also may be a noticeable effect on
parties, particularly the Commun-
ist party, in America.
In conclusion, Miss Robbins ob-
served that with his achievements
in making Russia a powerful world
influence, Stalin had a great deal
of success. His creed was a dy-
namic one, which offered a great
temptation to many. Any creed
which attempts to oppose this one
must necessarily also be a dynamic
one.

In an exciting swimming meet
held at Bryn Mawr on Thursday,
Swarthmore defeated Bryn Mawr:
the varsity won 41-16, the junior
varsity barely pulled out a 29-27
win. Competing with spirit, but
handicapped by the loss of Glenna
Vare, Bryn Mawr started hopefully
against the champion Swarthmore
team, but lost ground steadily as
the meet progressed.
For the varsity Ann Lebo won
top honors for the backcrawl. Mig-
gy Schwab sparkled throughout
the junior varsity contests; she
came in first in the free-style race,
and, with Judy Sands and ayia ibaa their winning
Hunt, led.the junior varsity to
win in the medley relay. Judy
Sands also was a star for the jun-
ior varsity, winning the backcrawl
with amazing speed. For the div-
ing competition Marilyn Fain plac-
ed for the varsity and Pat McEI-
roy for the junior varsity. At the
intermission period the performers
of the Synchronized Swimming
Club showed excellent form as they
gave their beautifully coordinated
version of “Ting-a-ling.”

played by Jill Fansler, Liz Warren,
and Dina Bickerman.
Archibald MacLeish’s The Tro-

interesting and thought-provoking,
for it was written by a man who
is not known as a playwright but
as a poet, and is to be read, not
acted in the traditional manner.
Here too the cast is a large one
with a number of fairly equal
smaller parts.
The leading roles are Cassan-

Enter Fiction Now
For ‘Mademoiselle’
Eight years ago MADEMOI-
SELLE established the College
Fiction Contest — an opportunity
for women undergraduates to test
their creative writing talents by
professional standards. This a‘
fords the college student a chance
for recognition in a national mag:
azine well known for its outstand-
ing quality of fiction, and it gives
to MADEMOISELLE a tremen-/} #
dous satisfaction in having a hand
in the recognition of new literary
talent.
Year after year, the magazine is
represented in the anthologies of
the best American short stories,
not only by such established writ-
ers as Carson McCullers, Paul
Bowles, Christine Weston, Ray
Bradbury, and Truman Capote, but
also by the winners of the College
Fiction Contest.
Of the recent finalists, 1950's
winners, J. Carol Goodman and
Ilona Karmel, both saw their
stories reprinted in THE BEST
AMERICAN SHORT STORIES
1951, and Miss Karmel’s first
novel, STEPHANIA, has just been
selected as an April choice by the
Literary Guild. Elizabeth Mar-
shall, who won last year, will sec
her story, THE HILL PEOPLE, in
the 1958 edition of THE BEST|#@
AMERICAN SHORT STORIES.
Again this year, MADEMOI:
SELLE will award a $500 fiction
prize for each of the two best short
stories submitted by a college stu
dent between now and April 15.
MADEMOISELLE magazine lists

Yirka has chosen to go to Colum-

on International Relations.
Explaining the Fellowship, Yir-
ka said one must be nominated by
faculty and then proceed to sub-
mit a one thousand word intellec-
tual biography. This means “You
first have to find out whether you
have an intellect and then find out
if it has developed since you were
five!” Then this procedure is fol-
lowed by “gruelling, gruesome” in-
terviews at the regional office
(which for Yirka was Princeton).
There you may be asked on the
theory of the co-ordinates or to
comment on Cannon’s latest book
(fortunately Yirka had read it),
then whether Mr. Cannon dis-
agreed with Morganthaul’s theory,
and “such like things”.
Yirka plans to get her Ph. D.
