Discussion Group Plans
To Probe Russian Life

Continued from Page 3

In contrast to the usual public
lectures, this series is planned for
a small continuing group, with
advanced discussion and a neces-
sarily limited size. Its members
should have a preliminary back-
ground in Russian studies or pro-
fessional training in the fields un-
der consideration. Students should
have completed either the course
in Russian History or the course
in Soviet Political and Economic
Development.

There will be some eight meet-
ings between November, 1951 and
May, 1952, on Wednesday eve-
nings from 7:30 to 9:30 in the
Common Room at Haverford Col-
lege.

The first meeting will be on No-
vember 14th, when the speaker
will be’ George F. Kennan, former-
ly of the State Department, now
at the Institute for Advanced
Study in Princeton.

The tentative schedule of dates
for subsequent meetings is as fol-
lows: November 28, December 12,
January 9, February 6, February
20, March 5, March 20 (Thurs-
day), April 9, April 23.

Students who have had one of
the pre-requisite courses or fac-
ulty members who are interested
in joining the group are asked to
see Miss Linn in the Library, be-
fore November 10th.

this to be done intelligently. Mrs.
Emlen suggested that IRC and the

Alliance take over and sponsor for
the whole college such a program
of affiliation. One college suggest-
ed for this purpose was Dacca
University in eastern Pakistan,
where there is a terrible tubercu-
losis problem; housing and health
conditions are extremely poor.
Another was in the Assam area of
India »where books from Bryn
Mawr were sent last year. Neither
of these colleges has any two-way
relationships with American col-
leges yet. A deep interest in a
foreign college which is eager to
increase its small knowledge of
American institutions can be de-
veloved at Bryn Mawr as it has
been at other colleges and univer-
sities. Mrs. Emlen emphasized
that this is one of the most con-
crete ways to combat Communism
in these countries, since Commun-
ist student groups, supported by
their government, are making a
great play for the allegiance of
students in a great many foreign
institutions of education.

Dearth of Faculty Lowers Calibre of Teaching in the Spanish Universities;
Tradition Still Bars Socially Prominent Women from Attending Colleges

cation. Mrs. Marshall said that
the republic stressed two educa-
tional aims: 1) to increase the
quality and quantity
schools and therefore raise the
literacy of the country; 2) to
separate completely religious and
public education. During the re-
public’s life there was a vast im-
provement in the schools, and the
role of public education increased
in importance.

During the Civil War, 1936-
1939, the government attempted
to keep the system together and
tried to let the instructors remain
teaching. Finally it became a
question of survival, not educa-
tion, and the situation was impos-
sible,

of the



Franco’s victory in 1989, she
continued, brought with it bitter-
ness and reprisal, which, added to

war casualties, reduced teaching
manpower. Franco wanted to in-
crease the role of church educa-
tion and therefore did little about
secondary _ schools. Religious
schools multiplied ag a result, and
the few non-religious private
schools suffered greatly. They
were not allowed to .confer de-
grees, and their programs were
supervised by the state. Franco’s
youth movements—their arts and
crafts, singing, and lavish folk
dancing—however, were an asset
to education.
Turning to the _ universities,
Mrs. Marshall stated that like
Italy, Holland, France, and her



other western neighbors, Spain
fits into the educational pattern
of Europe. The calibre of the

teaching is low since almost all
the pre-war faculty are “in exile,
or worse.” Things now seem to
be better though, she continued,
since 1939 was quite a long time
ago, and a new generation has
arisen.

Mrs. Marshall concluded by ex-
planing the feminine role in the
Spanish universities. During the
republic most of the co-eds repre-
sented the middle class; the so-
cially prominent group was more
traditional and did not send its
daughters to universities. Men
still outnumber women, perhaps
because Franco stressed the idea
of women in the home.

put one over on this cock-of-the-walk! When it
came to making “quick-trick” experiments of
cigarette mildness, he stated flatly, “That’s strictly -

convincing way a prove cigarette mildness!

It’s the sensible test .. . the 30-day Camel
Mildness Test, which simply asks you to try
Camels as a steady smoke—on a day after day
basis. No snap judgments. Once you’ve enjoyed
Camels for 30 days in your “T-Zone” (T for
Throat, T for Taste), you'll see why ...
