College Adopts

Simplified Plan

(Of Solicitations

The student body has now adopt-
ed- the “One Drive System,” which
means that only one drive, cover-
ing all services, is to be held per
year. This system has been used
successfully at Vassar and others
of the Seven Colleges, and_ will
simplify the soliciting problem to a
considerable extents.

The Drive, to be held in the fall,
will come under the League, with
a Relief Committee eHairman chos-
en by a campus election. The
Chairman will choose her own com-
mittee which will be concerned
with solicitations and budget. The
budget is to be drawn up on the
basis of previous years’ contribu-
tions and the new requests which
have come in; a surplus is to be
maintained which can meet emer-
gencies.

If an agency were to apply in
the middle of the year with an im-
mediate need for money, its de-
mand could be met from the emer-
gency fund, not through solicitation.
It is emphasized that only one so-
licitation is to be allowed per year,
as this is the whole point of having
a One Drive System.

At the same time, this new drive
plan will not interfere with the
traditional Activities Drive in the
fall. It will include all the na-

tional charities such as Red Cross |

and Gommunity Chest which now
depend on indiivdual solicitations.

Dulles Discusses
Austrian Situation

Common Room, May 5. Speak-
ing at Current Events tonight,
Mrs. Eleanor Lansing Dulles, re-
cently) returned from Austria
where she has been serving as fin-
ancial attache to the American
Legation, commented on develop-
ments in Austria and pointed out
the necessity of continued discus-
sion of various questions with the
Soviet Union in order to achieve a
lasting peace. Mrs. Dulles ex-
plained that the situation in Aus-
tria is such that it is almost im-
possible to talk about it without
reference to Soviet relations.

Citing the 1945 elections in
Austria and Czechoslovakia, Mrs.
Dulles described the difference in
temperament between the two
countries which led to the con-
trast in pro-communist votes (40%
in Czechoslovakia and 5% in Aus-
tria). The fact that Austria is
still under a Control agreement
and that no treaty has yet been
signed, Mrs. Dulles ascribed to the

lengthy discussions which _ have

been held without any satisfactory
compromise being effected. “Rep-
resentatives of the four powers are
now meeting in London, however,”
stated Mrs. Dulles, “and there have
been a large number of conces-
sions made by the Russians.”
Mrs. Dulles also spoke briefly on
the importance of the Marshall
Plan for Austria. She asserted “The
Austrians have made a fairly
substantial recovery from almost
nothing, but without the Marshall
Plan the economic situation might
revert to chaos.” The necessity of
raw. materials: and some machines

in order to keep Austrian economy
on an even keel was emphasized
as well as the pressing ‘need for
ipesenes dem

and Blaikie Forsyth °51

The lack of ashtrays, chairs and
a well-tuned piano didn’t dampen
the enthusiasm of the audience for
the second annual Merion Concert,
which was, quite logically, held in
Wyndham, May 4. Feeling the ef-
fects of spring, people reclined on
the floor and absorbed the music,
free cokes, and Awards Night lol-
lipops.

The Double Octette opened the
program with songs which are by
now eld favorites: “I Wonder When
I Shall Be Married”, “Riddle
Song”, “Grandma Grunts”, and
“T’m So Glad Trouble Don’t Last
Alway”. In one of the two Ital-
ian pieces they sang, there were
four concealed animals. We only

At Commencement

This year’s Commencement
speaker will be the Revererfd~Hen-



author. Dr. Cadbury was graduat-
ed from Haverford College and re-
ceived his M.A. and Ph.D. from
Harvard. In 1933 Haverford award-
ed Dr. Cadbury his Litt. D. degree,
and four years later he received
his degree of Doctor of Divinity



from the University of Glasgow.

| Dr. Cadbury has taught at Har-
vard,. Haverford..and.the Yale Di-
vinity School, as well as at Bryn
Mawr. For eight years, from 1926
to 1934, he was Professor of Bib-
lical Literature here at Bryn Mawr.

Dr. Cadbury is also the author
of many books, among them: Na-
tional Ideals in the Old Testament
and Beginnings of Christianity. He
has written many articles on Bib-
lical subjects, on the Quakers and
on immigration. He is chairman
of the American Friends’ Service
Committee.

U. W. F. Ann a
Results of Poll

The results of the United World
Federalist poll sponsored by Bryn
Mawr’s Student Federalist chapter
reveal that 82 per cent of the stu-
dents approached are in favor of
World Government. However,
many written comments by those
favoring World Government indi-
cated that although World Govern-
ment is idealistically fine, it is im-
possible to achieve now.

As a result of the poll, 26 new
members were added.to the chap-
ter, setting the total membership
at 84.

Merion’s Concert In Wyndham

Piano Numbers

detected two of them in spite of
the. super - realistic imitations by
Mr. Goodale and*the singers.

Inman’s Technique Simple

‘When checking on Ann Inman’s
piano selections (they were Cho-
pin’s Prelude No. 6, Fantasie Im-
promptu and Prelude No. 15), we
humbly asked her for a descrip-
tion of her technique. “I play with
my fingers”, she said. We attrib-
ute the terseness of her reply to
the fact that her opponents in a
bridge game had just made her
partner’s no-trump bid.

Even without moustaches, there
is nothing more barbershop than
Bryn Mawr’s Quartette. Geib, Loo-
mis, Henderson and Eberstadt, de-
spite occasional difference of opin-
ien as to pitch, were a great suc-
cess with their renditions of “If I
Had My Way”, “My Sweet”, “Mood
Indigo” and “Lover Man”. Their
acting ability added greatly to
these and other old favorites.
Everyone seemd to agree that “The
more we get together, the happier
we'll be.”

Concert Unveils Talent

Undaunted by one rebellious
note on the piano, Cynnie Schwartz
played, with her usual dash, pop-
ular songs familar to the habitues
of the Rhoads smoker. Starting
off with “The Continental” and
“Just One of Those Things”, she
continued with requests from the
enthusiastic audience,

Glenn Will Talk

At Baccalaureate

Dr. Leslie Glenn will deliver the
Baccalaureate address on Sunday,
May 30, in Goodhart.

Dr. Glenn is the rector of St.
John’s Church in Washington,
C., and was the former rector of
Christ Church, Cambridge, Massa-

chusetts. He was the Chaplain of
the Episcopal students at Harvard
University and acted for four years
as a commander in the U. S. Naval
Reserve. He served as a Chaplain
during the second World War, for
the most part aboard the USS Ala-
bama, which saw action at Saipan,
Iwo Jima and Okinawa.

Dr. Glenn is well-known on the
Bryn Mawr campus, since he gave
two sermons here in the fall.

Bright Comedy

Levinson Performance
Climaxes Woollcott
Comedy

by Hanna Holborn ’50

A capable and enthusiastic Bryn
Mawr-Haverford cast combined on
Saturday evening to make The
Man Who Came to Dinner one of
the best, and certainly the most
hilarious, performance of the year.
They were aided by the inspired
choice of a play which is funny
under almost any circumstances
and also by an unusually respons-
ive audience; but all credit must
go, finally, to the uninhibited group
on stage.

As the man who came to dinner
and stayed four weeks with a brok- -
en hip that wasn’t broken, Henry
Levinson made a superb and ex-
tremely redoubtable Sheridan
Whiteside. The whole play re-
volved around him, and he never
became static or tiresome; on the
contrary, his every action was a
matter of eager interest, from his
opening yell of “Great dribbling
cow!” right on to the end of the
play. Mr. Levinson created a real .
character; he had a magnificent
sense of timing and a feeling for
the details of acting. The difficult
mood swings, from egotistic dili-
tantism to sentimentalism (“in the
faltering twilight, Elias P. Crock-
field made his way to the poor
box”), from sarcasm to something
resembling human emotion, he ac-
complished with finesse and assur-
ance. It is impossible to single out
specific points at which he excell-
ed; he was good throughout.

Pantomime Good

Sheila Tatnall, playing Maggie
Cutler, was perhaps a bit miscast.
She was very good in her panto-
mime scenes—especially at the
very beginning of the play as she
stood by Whiteside’s chair watch-
ing the confusion—and she did a
wonderful job in her catty battle
with Lorraine Sheldon; but her
rather coy statements of “I’m in
love” fully merited Whiteside’s
snort of “This is merely delayed
puberty.” This was perhaps not
entirely her fault; Christopher
Amussen (Bert Jefferson) who
played opposite her was some-
what colorless; but the “love in-
terest” on the whole did not go
over too well in spite of a heroic
attempt.

Weary Geologist

Describes Hunt

For Rocks, Deer and Trilobites

Dear family,

\We’ve been in a bus three days
looking for rocks. They were all
on tops of mountains or half way
up precipices. I found lots on
Friday but they were all the

‘| wrong ones; so Saturday I stopped

finding them and sat down instead.
When we got to the Delaware Wa-
ter Gap we stopped to take a clos-
er look at a dear bear and a bare
deer. Friday night we each had
our own bed but Saturday night
we were at Tamaqua which has its
own sleeping customs. It was all
up and down stairs from one street
to the next, but that was easy for
us because of our practice in go-
ing up and down mountains from
‘one rock to the next.



On Sunday Dr. Dryden showed
us a remarkable syncline that
made coal by pinching it tightly,
but I couldn’t find it any place. We
left our eggs from our Friday box
lunches in the coal mine because
by Sunday something unpleasant
had happened to them. That’s
about all, except that Dr. Watson
caught on fire, someone fell off a
cliff and started an avalanche, and
Miss Lutz watched Miss Boudreau
catch a trilobite—after three years
of laying for him. It was all very
interesting but I got hungry and
misplaced a valuable pickax, and
am advertising in the Stroudsburg

Super, the Tamaqua Yearly, and _

the Pottsville Conglomerate.

Services Drive

We have chosen the efficiency and simplicity of a one-
drive system to support national charities. Whether or not
the choice was a good one rests entirely on student coopera-
tion. There are two difficulties presented to us when we in-
augurate the new plan on campus next fall. We must meet
the increased goal at once, and at the same time we must
continue support of campus drives.

The services drive in the fall will include such national
charities as the Community Chest and the Red Cross; its
goal will be a composite one larger than former individual
aims. We must maintain the support we have shown under
the present system and strive to better our contributions.
We must also maintain our support of campus efforts such as
the Activities Drive.

To do this, lét us remember the broad results of the
plan, the efficiency which we have chosen. And let us seri-
iously undertake to justify our choice.

Just Supposin’

If there should be a railroad strike
And all folks took to sea,

Life would continue at B.M.C.,
And where o where would we be?

Two-choices -would- face us:- dreaming up ~some~novel
means of transportation (river-boat schedules may be ob-
tained in the NEWS room on request) or competing with the
summer theatre by spending the summer here.

Let’s see, the-main reading room could be converted into

an open-air dining hall (in keeping with Wadham College,
Oxford). .Arrangements could be made with the weather
bureau to provide continual showers for those who do not
care to make use of the new enlarged cloister pool. The brook
behind Rhoads could be stocked with minnows, while the
subterranean passages of Rock and Goodhart wou provide
game-hunting. —

the seriousness of the national crisis.

B. M., Haverford Excel
In Wollcott Comedy

Continued from Page 1

The finest comic actor in the cast
was Lee Haring, whose portrayal
of Beverly Carlton was delightful.
He was very poised, indeed, had
an excellent sense of timing, and
all in all, practically out-Cowarded
Noel. His entrance was one of the
funniest bits in the play. Donald
Shofstall as Banjo made a very
good contrast to him; the cultured
and subtle humor of the English-
man on the one hand was set off
by the easy and boisterous humor
of a Hollywood comic on the oth-
er.

Marjorie Low was outstanding
in the part of the “Countess de
Pushover”, Lorraine Sheldon. It
was a difficult part which might
easily have been played as a
straight “type”; Miss Low, how-
ever, gave it a great deal of indi-
viduality. She managed this most-
ly by a careful attention to the de-
tails of her actions on stage—the
way she sat on a sofa, the way she
approached and shrunk away from
Whiteside, and, of course, the in-
comparable manner with which she
entered the mummy case. She
gave a more professional impres-
sion than ony of the others with
the exception of Henry Levinson.

The great number of other act-
ors makes it impossible to give
everyone full credit. Lola Mary
Egan, playing the “harmless”
Harriet Stanley (alias Lizzie Bor-
den), had an’ unfortunately soft
voice, but otherwise did excellent-
ly with her part. ‘William Bishop,
and Margo Vorys as Mr. and Mrs.



Curriculum Comm.
Asks Co-operation,
Reports Plans

To the Editor:

Now that the Student Curricu-
lum Committe is organized for
next year, we would like to report
on some of our plans.

Earlier this year we received re-
quests for a typing course with or
without credit. Such a course can
not be included in our curriculum,
however, we would be happy to
sponsor a student organized group,
if a sufficient number of people are
still interested in learning to type.
During the next few days a repre-
sentative in each hall will take the
names of any students wishing to
do so.

Requests have also been made
for a course in painting to be
counted for credit towards the de-
gree. Before acting on this ques-
tion we would like to know how

many people would take such a.

course. If you are in favor of this
proposal, please speak to a mem-
ber of the committee or sign the
list in Taylor on the Curriculum
committte bulletin board before
Friday, May 21.

'We are also continuing discus-
sion on the orals system and are
waiting for a faculty decision on
suggestions already presented. Any
further (constructive suggestions
would be appreciated.

Finally, we would like to point
out that we are a student elected
committee serving as an intermed-
iary between the students and the
faculty on questions concerning
the curriculum. Without student
cooperation we have no function;
so please bring us your ideas, sug-
gestions, or complaints.

Ernest .W. Stanley respectively,
made a very realistic small town
couple, helpless in the face of Mr.
Whiteside. David Thomas, play-
ing the prolific Dr. Bradley, had a
tendency to overact but gave 2
very lively performance.

Others in the cast included: Su-
san Kramer as Miss Preen; James
Ranck as Richard Stanley; Jane
Roller as June Stanley; Paul Cates
as John; Claireve Grandjouan as
Sarah, and Daniel Oppenheim. as
Professor Metz.

Special credit must also go to
Stage Manager Charles Gilbert

having added another to his list of
polished and enjoyable produc-
tions.



Ivy, Pioneer Spirit of Radnor
Mark Magic Growth of New Hall

by Louise Ervin, °49
Quoth an ancient B(e)ard: “Rad-
nor Hall is just like Oxford!” How-
ever, Anne Bobis, next year’s tem-
porary president of that ancient
ivy-clad edifice, is at present enter-

‘taining niany doubts as to whether

or not ‘the still and scholarly aura
ascribed to Radnor will survive the
undergraduate invasion scheduled
for the autumn of 1948,

Smokers on every floor (tidy un-
der the graduate regime), \ wash-
tubs and ironing boards in the
basement, and fireplaces scattered
throughout promise to accommo-
date the most varied tastes. As
yet Radnor has been unable to dis-
cover either piano or victrola. (The
present inhabitants, it would seem,
are little concerned with the more
noisy forms of recreation.) Dona-
tions are therefore welcome! There
is one more deficiency, only one
telephone; please limit your calls.
Because of Radnor’s propinquity
to the gym, it is expected that oc-




ments. A bicycle brigade will fa-
cilitate unavoidable excursions to
such central points as Taylor and
the vill.

Freshman Week in Radnor will
present problems of geography to
freshmen and upperc]gssmen alike.
The usual welcoming committee
plans to arrive a day early in hopes
of learning their way in time for
the freshmen. New furniture, new
paint, will appear this summer, but
prospective Radnorites (Oxford-
ians?) remain secretive concerning
“traditions.” Presumably these
will appear before too long. Per-
haps an ivy chain will vie with
Vassar’s daisies.

For the Summer:

The Peter Bent Brigham Hospi-

attendants at $50 a month and liv-
ing. The training and experience
are recommended by Miss Kraus.
