~ Marge Mullikin, ’51

Whether or not: there exists,’ in
truth, a contemporary French work
which can be called a good Cath-
olic novel was the primary ques-
tion raised by M. Jean Collignon
of Yale University in his lecture
at the French Club meeting on
Thursday evening, May 10. He
pointed out that Catholic novelists
do not form a school in France and
do not set up for themselves a
common literary method or theory.
Since the majority of the French
reading public is Catholic, they do
not find it necessary to unite in or

idisserninated cancer.



der to justify their basic point of
view, as they would in writing for
a predominantly (Protestant public. |
Speaking of Francois Mauriac and,
Georges Bernanos in particular, M.
Collignon showed some of the dif-
ficulties encountered by novelists’
of the Catholic faith.
Both of the writers concerned
profess a firm Catholic belief, yet,
in the works which they produce
the influence of this faith is often
plainly lacking, or weakened by
the general tone of the novel.
Mauriac’s novels develop around
characters who bear little resem-
blance to good Christians. They at
tempt to use their religion to pro-
mote their own selfish ends, or
they live in a kind of moral lassi-
tude and mental sterility, analyz-
ing their situation, but finding
ways to explain and excuse their
shortcomings. The most interesting
characters, and those treated with
the greatest sympathy by the au-
thor, are often the ones who could
most justly be condemned as un-
orthodox. These characters, most
of whom need love “in large dos-
es”, as M. Collignon put it, have
been repeatedly disappointed in
their lives, and are shown on the
verge of conversion, or turning
finally to the love of God, as a kind
of last resort. The fact that “good

Michels Outlines
‘TV & Education’,

Stresses Action

Dr. Walter C. Michels of the

and Education” at this morning’s
assembly. He emphasized that
television transmission frequen-
cies impose a strict limitation upon
the number of TV stations which
can operate in any one section of
the country, in contrast to radio,
where transmission requires much
less power, making the possible
number of stations almost limit-
less. :

The ultra-frequency bands which
are being developed for television
transmission will raise the poten-
tial number of stations in any sec-
tion to only twenty-five, and these
will be in great demand. If edu-
cational institutions desire the use
of this medium, such facilities must
therefore be secured now.

The initial $300,000 cost of ob-
taining a TV station, plus $150,-
000 for maintenance annually, how-
ever, are far too great for any col-
lege to consider. Commercial sta-
tions are wary of sponsoring edu-
cational programs; the classroom
provides a’“captive audience,” but
the television audience can simply
turn the dial. Mr. Michels believes
the solution is inter-college co-
operation, plus prompt action to

Bedrich Vaska’s Super
Highlights Excellent Orchestra Concert:

by Lucy Batten, ’54

The high point of the May 11th
concert of the combined Bryn
Mawr, Haverford, and Drexel or-
chestras was the appearance of
one of the era’s finest celloists, Bed-
rich Vaska, as soloist. The mellow-
ness and rich vibrato of his rare
Stradivarius cello in the evening’s
major work, the Saint-Saens Con-
certo for Violincello and Orchestra
were indescribable; it was a mas-
terpiece. Vaska once performed
the Concerto for Saint-Saens him-
self, in Marseilles. His three solo
selections, ‘accompanied at the
piano by Conductor William Reese,
were musical- poetry. --

years he toured Europe as soloist
and first cello with the Warsaw

script prior to publication. In 1911

McBride Relates
Basic Freedoms,

College, Individual

Miss McBride spoke this morn-
ing at the last Wednesday Assem-
bly of the yéar, “In Relation to
Certain Basic Freedoms,” noting
the relation of the college and the
individual to these freedoms.

The college of liberal arts and
sciences “exists only in freedom
of thought and speech.” It tries
to insure presentation of different
views, and its value judgments
must concern what is most impor-
tant to present. “The ground
should be fertile for new ideas”;
faculty and students should be
free to call for expression of other
views by outside speakers, al-
though these views must not be
misunderstood as those of the col-

Rain Fails to Steal
‘Cavaleade’ Roar

The rain came and the sound
track had to do battle with the
thunder storm that hung on Good-
hart spire. The audience, too, was
wet, and the lightning flashes fre-
quent. But the United Worl
Federalists rose above, or at least
ignored, the elements, and pre-
sented Noel Coward’s ‘Cavalcade’
and a March of Time on the eve-
ning of Friday the eleventh.

The March of Time, of events
circa 1935, seemed _ strangely
familiar, with pictures of Hitler,
the threat to world security, and
some of John Lomax recording
“Good Night, Irene.’ ‘Cavalcade’
was more history—a fast-moving
way of presenting some of the
major occurrences from the Boer|
War till 1933 through the eyes of
an English mother. It was fas-
cinating, too, to see Clive Brook
as Mr. Marryot and Bonita Gran-
ville in the role of Fanny, the child
who later became a dancer.

Afterwards, there were cookies
and punch in the foyer, and only
one of the cookies seemed to have
collapsed from the moisture, The
rest saved one from making a
damp trip to the ville for refresh-
ments, and proved that the UWF

Seeks Flexible
Freedom Ideals

Some Freedoms More
Important Than
Others

specially contributed by
Rosamund Kent Sprague

On Saturday evening, May 12,
Professor Paul Schrecker of the
University of Pennsylvania and
Bryn Mawr College presented a
paper on “Freedom and Freedoms
in Civilization” as the culmination
of a series of lectures before the
annual May meeting of the Fuller-
ton Club.. Although primarily con-
cerned with the problem of attain-
ing a definition of freedom suffic-
iently flexible to meet the require
ments of highly divergent civiliza:
tions, yet not so broad as to be
without content, Dr. Schrecker was
at the same time, making a telling
attack on recent tendencies in logic
and semantics. “It is time,” he:
said, “to stop talking about talk-
ing, and ‘begin talking about
things.” To regard propositions
concerning, say, the worth of the
individual, as expressions of emo-
tional attitudes or as mere value
judgments incapable of verifica-
tion, amounts to a betrayal of phil-
osophy. —

All freedoms are, of course,

Tho’ Spanish Nil,

Que? No poke me so hard! Yo
no understand it either . Es bueno
that there are captions en ingles.
Yo wish the Spanish Club would
present something like this more
often. Maybe I’d learn some
Spanish. The sound track is bad?
That might explain some of this
trouble I’m having because I’m
positive that I ought to know more
Spanish than this. After all, I
have been taking it for two years
now. Now watch Don Quixote hav-
ing a duel with those windmiils, I
guess he really was a little crazy.
He is going home now; those shep-
herds certainly gave him a beat-
‘ng, but he really should have
known better than to charge a
heard of sheep. I’m sure that I
could tell the difference between
sheep and an army even if it did
have to be in Spanish. Oh now
those people have gotten him to
ride the wooden horse and blind-
folded him and he really thinks
he’s riding a flying horse. Who is
the man all dressed up in the fancy
tin? He’s challenged Quixote and
beaten him in battle. Si, now the
Don will have to retire as fulfill-
ment of his contract, but he looks
worn out. I do hope that he will
be all right. Look, he is sick; he’s
regained his sanity and realizes
what has been happening is all un-
true and that he was never really
a knight. Poor Quixote, his life ‘is
finshed. Cervantes certainly was
a great writer wasn’t he?. Pues; -
buenas noches. Yo want to go

Library Hoarding

The reserve room echoes with loud frustrated whispers:
“T had it reserved!” “Where’s that blasted book?” “It’s due

at twelve—I’ve got to get it done!”

It is the last week of classes; exams start soon. We are
all rushing, and trying to keep pace with stringent schedules.
Nothing is more disheartening than to arrive at the library
promptly on the hour and find that the book you carefully re-
served is missing. “I’m sorry. Volume 463 hasn’t been seen
since nine o’clock this morning. Yes, we’re trying to locate
1t,”’

The student is more than on the verge of losing her tem-
per. “Who could have taken it? Who?” It is hard to imagine
someone deliberately depriving those who have reserved a

book that privilege, and yet that is what happens every day.
Five or six students are forced to go to class unprepared and
must complete the assignment at a time they have set aside
for another subject—all because one girl has taken the book,
card and all, from the library, and has kept it more hours
than it would take a moron to memorize it completely.

The reserve system is intended as an aid to students
and to keep monopolizers’ greedy hands away. The two-hour
limit assures each a share of the books in demand. People
who break the rule are monopolizers and should not be allow-
ed the privilege of further reserving books. The reserve sys-
tem is a fair one, but it can operate only if each student uses
the time she has reserved the book and no more. When work
piles up, as it is bound to do at this time of year, proposed
individual schedules must be respected. The reserve system
should function justly. One cat cannot lap up all the com-
munity milk and come out satiated, while her cohorts, be-
hind in the race, starve.

Loose Ends...

Why, we wonder, is there not flourescent paint on the
hands of the library and Taylor clocks? . . . Coffee served as
regularly in the winter as lemonade is in the spring would be
delightful . .. They would have to reduce the river bank be-
hind Rhoads to a prickly stubble just before exams .. . Three
cheers to Dr. Wells for smiling benignly upon the Charleston,
and to the musicians who serenade the NEWS so faithfully

dents, we leave the grotto-light of the blotterless (sob) lib-

Cancer Study Probes
Compound Resistance

Continued from Page 1
the chemotherapy of cancer, Dr
Burchenal continued: 1) that you
should know what cancer is, how
an infected cell differs from a
healthy cell, before chemotherapy
is employed; 2) the empirical
method which looks for compounds
that will.work on cancer, and after
that determines why they work

The second is the method Sloan
Kettering uses. For screening com-
pounds at random, most reliance is
placed on the solid tumor program.
A tumor is ifjected into mice and
then the micp are treated. The tu-
mor is measured when the treat-
ment is begun and during its pro-
cess. If untreated, the mice all die
about the same time. The program
shows how much, if any, a com-
pound can increase survival time.
Supplementary tests include: 1)
letting the infected mice go for
eight days after the injection of
the disease so that they can de-
velop a high white count; then see-
ing if the compound causes the
white count to fall; 2) finding out
how the compound works to im-
prove it.

-What the experimental scientist
is interested in is how the com-
pound will affect the human pa-
tient. How can human dosage be
determined? First he tries the
compound on mice, rats, cats and
dogs. If there is no marked dif-
ference inthe reaction, it can be
assumed man’s dosage is the same
as that of a dog. The treatment
is first applied to a very sick pa-
tient about to die and then tried
on cases that might be benefited by

it. Only then can the scientist
discover how valuable the com

There are two compounds now
being used in the treatment of leu-
kemia: amethépterin and cortisone.
Although they produce a definite
survival increase, resistance to
them occurs because of the random
mutation of perhaps a single cell.
“If we could find some way to
counteract resistance,” Dr. Burch-
enal continued, “we would have a
treatment as good as insulin for
diabetes.” There are two possible
explanations for resistance: 1) an
alternate metabolic pathway; 2)
decreased affinity of the erzyme
for amethopterin.

“Our problem is manifold,” he
concluded. New compounds must
be found, old mechanisms perfect-
ed by study of their actions, and
the mechanisms of resistance stud-
ied. “At the present time we are
curing none,” but the lives of a
few are being prolonged. If the
scientists could only keep patients
alive for two years, it would be a
great question whether or not it
would be worth it. The hope which
spurs them on is that sooner or
later someone will find something
a lot better than they have today;
that someday someone will get the
benefits of their present work.

SPORTS

Bryn Mawr played four varsity
sports this spring, tennis, lacrosse,
softball, and golf, the latter hav-
ing its first year of intercollegiate
play. Top praise goes to both
the JV and the varsity tennis
teams and their captain, Nancy
Blackwood, for winning all their
matches against Rosemont, Ur-
sinus, Temple, Penn, and Swarth-
more. Varsity lacrosse, captained
by Tuck Howell, won two and lost
two of its games while the second
team also came out evenly, win-
ning one and losing one. The
softball team, led by Mary Klein,
has lost to Penn and Chestnut
Hill but won its most recent game
against Drexel, 17-6, with the help
of Phoebe Harvey’s strike-out
pitching. The new golf team,
made up of Mary McGrath, Bunny
Dean, Nat McCuaig, Betsy. Re-
penning, and Anne Martin, has
beaten Swarthmore but lost to
Penn. Congratulations to this
new team for their enthusiasm
and growing skill.

specifications of the universal
Freedom. Particular freedoms are
inevitably associated with the pri-
mordial needs and aspirations of
human beings. The different prov-
inces of civilization and’ the speci-
fic freedoms related to them are
based on these aspirations. How-
ever, aspirations are bound to con-
flict, and thus, in any positive civ-
ilization, some freedoms must be
subordinate to others. If there
existed a rationally ordered hier-
archy of freedoms, it would be an
easy task to discover whether or
not a particular civilization were
a good one. However, no such
standard exists.

The most that can be hoped for
in the attainment of a dynamical
balance in which no one freedom is
allowed to reach a state of hyper-
trophy such that’ other freedoms
are completely atrophied. If
enough aspirations are frustrated
long enough, revolutions result.
(Such revolutions may take place
in the individual as well as within
civilizations). The specific’ free-
doms are so dramatically interre-
lated with the overall concept of
freedom that such state of frustra-
tion eventually impairs even the
particular freedom which happens
to be in the ascendency. The ideal
to be attained is one in which all
freedoms are compossible. Since
every man has a right to civiliza-
tion, punitive sanctions (i. e. ex-
clusive' from civilization) should
only be employed to the extent
necessary to preserve it. An inter-
national power is needed to rule
out totalitarian regimes and to
maintain an international Bill of
Rights. This end is especially the
task of ethics and the philosophy
of history.

Talent, Papism Found
Incompatible In Novel

Continued from Page 1

Catholics”, like Therese Desquey-
roux’s ‘husband, for instance, are
the characters who totally fail to
win our sympathy renders Maur-
iac’s Catholocism suspect.

Bernanos writes from a similar
point of view, but with a more ex-
aggerated interest in the omni-
presence of Evil. He develops the
evil side of his characters to such
an extent that it appears to be his
only concern. He depicts these
sinners as possessed by a devilish
energy, which, though it leads
them to commit acts of violence,
appears more commendable to him
than the passivity of the majority
of men. In treating saintly char-
acters he concentrates upon their
preliminary doubts and spiritual
struggles or upon the excesses in
their faith which lead them to un-
orthodoxy. In contrast to the
Catholic belief, his “(Nouvelle His-
toire de Mouchette” ends with the
clear implication that the girl who
has committed suicide will be sav-
ed in the after life.

From all of this M. Collignon
concluded that there are good
Catholics and there are good nov-
elists, but that the twain rarely,
if ever, meet. The qualities which
make Mauriac and Bernanos good
novelists are precisely those which
endanger their positions as Cath-
olics, while it is a fact that auth-
or like Bourget, Bazin, and Bor-
deaux, who write completely unor-
thodox novels are bad _ novelists.
And the paradox of the “good
Catholic novel” remains unsolved.
