Varied | Program
-~OfB. M. Concert
Wins High Praise’



- by April Oursler ’46
‘~Goodhart, April 28. When the
same chorus that cannot prevent
laughter from breaking out in the
ranks through sheer enjoyment. of
the “Orchestra Song” can so easily
make the transition to pieces re-
quiring a good deal of interpreta-
tive singing and technical ability,
its concert cannot help but succeed
in its aim of presenting Bryn Mawr
music to Bryn Mawr in the best
light possible.

In fact, it seemed that it was be-
cause of this spirit of wholé*heart-
ed enjoyment as spreading from the
singers to the audience with such
contagion, rather than: in spite of
it, that the music itself was per-
formed with such a high technical
standard. The sihgers had risen
above the stage of harping on de-

‘ tail, and under the -expert and
spirited direction of Mrs. de Var-
ron, they threw themselves into
the music until they seemed them-
selves to be a part of it.

fhe program was divided into
val ious sections according. to the
groups represented, ‘including the
woodwind quartets, and a pianist,

as well as the three choral groups;
the Glee Club, the Choir, and the
‘Madrigal Group.

The highlight of the program.

was the group of selections from
“Porgy and Bess”, in which the
chorus epitomized their whole eve-
ning’s work. Ann Matlack 747,
brought not only a-full and -rich
voice but a completely poised stage
presence to her solo, “It Ain’t Nec-
essarily So”. Seeming to bring the
audienee into her confidence as she
sang, she established a perfect rap-
port with them as well as with the
aecompanying chorus.

Sarah Beckwith °46, soloist of
the “Summertime” selection, sang

' with a sweetness and clarity that'

blended well with the background
choral angement, and the Glee
Club swung into the closing chor-
uses, with a vigor that showed un-
derstanding of both the _mood ‘and |,
technicalities of the music.

Colonel J..Brown
Addresses Aides |~
At B. M. Capping | __

Goodhart, May 1. Sixty - one
Aides were capped in a
ceremony this. evening, having
completed 45 ‘hours of supervised
work in five hospitals of the Phil-
adelphia area: Bryn Mawr, Jeffer-
son, Temple University, Philadel-
phia General and Presbyterian. |

The main speaker in the cere-
mony was Sol. James B. Brown, of
the Valley Forge General Hospital.
‘He opened his speech with a warn-
ing to all Nurses’ Aides who might
take offense at being called sister
by an Englishman, as it has quite
a respectable meaning.

On the other hand, Col: Brown,
one of the: most eminent plastic
surgeons of, the world, indicated
that ‘there is no romance or fool
ing when taking care of wounded
service men.

Many Nurses’ Aides, according
to Col. Brown, have offered to do-
nate skin to some of the terribly
wounded cases. Col Brown praised
the work of the Nurses’ Aides, in
that. aside from practical duties,
they have often been able to help
a boy by personal interest and un-
derstanding.

Miss Logan, representative of the
Red Cross, spoke briefly on the
tradition of citizenship: at Bryn
Mawr. Mrs. Frederick Potts, vice-
chairman of the Volunteer Nurses’
Aides Corps then pointed out the



| value of the work as part of a

well-rounded .education and sup-
ported the plan permitting stud-
ents to receive academic time credit
for Nurses’ Aide work.

Ruben Previews
‘As You Like It’.

by Rhetta Taylor ’47

Amidst A-1 pandemonium con-
sisting of speeches gurgled from
behind ice cream cones and a
boogie-woogie rendition for back-
ground, Mrs. Seyril-Ruben, director
of As You Like It was cornered in
Goodhart by a News reporter for
a brief interview. Asked if the
Shakespearean could be a success,
Mrs. Rubin replied enthusiastical-
ly, that the play was “exciting,
amusing, fast moving and surpris-
ing.” She went on to say that the
cast had done a remarkable job in

getting. it together in two weeks}:

and that the girls were “a joy to
work with except when they giggle
hysterically.”

(Mrs. Ruben, listing the marvels
that As You Like It will present,
pictured a horse galloping over the
newly turfed Robin Hood Dell, two
wild sheep; unless tame ones can be
procured before Friday and two
live bear cubs. Asked where the
cubs came from Mrs. Ruben declin-
ed to say, adding that their source
would remain a mystery.

fon ie certain that all comers
will :
dell, “pennants” will be put up
from the Bryn Mawr station to the
campus and there will be appro-
priately dressed pages to act as
guides.

Mrs. Ruben, in recalling the
amusing incidents which inevitably

crop up at all rehearsals, told of |-

impressing upon, Orlando (Jean
Switendick ’48) that he must “re-

act” upon seeing his beloved Rosa-
lind (Kate Rand ’45). To which
‘Orlando emphatically replied; “I

Southern Garden



The atmosphere of a southern

Junior Prom, which will be held in
the gym on Saturday night, May 5.

The decorations - promise to be
very effective. A. blue net studded
with mirrors is to be extended from

of the room, to produce the im-

tables’ lining the wall will further
enhance the effect of a Charleston
Garden. But the decorators are
proudest of their ingenious idea for
a pool, which they confidently hope
to construct at one end of the gym.
The possibility of moving the dance
down to the true pool was at first
considered, but soon rejected due
to the problem of engineering the
dancing couples around lockers and
diving board.

Because of the twelve o’clock
curfew, the dance will begin at 8:30
and last only until 11:45. This
early, wholesome hour will prevent
loss of Bryn Mawr beauty sleep
and the traditional “day after” stu-
por.

The Debonairs will provide the

Refreshments, which
sandwiches, ' cookies,

music, in-
clude and
punch, will be served in the fenc-
ing room.

Programs and tickets are being
sold by the Hall Representatives,
Admission will be $2.50 per couple,
but seniors will be admitted free.

Chaperons for the Prom are Miss
McBride, Mrs. Grant, Mr. and Mrs.
Broughton, Mr. Berliner, Mr. and
Mrs. Nahm, Miss Gardiner, and
Mr. and Mrs. Wells. Gloria Wald-
man ard Ruth Leyendecker axe the
co-chairmen, and their committee
consists of Sandy Lieberman, floor;
Elaine Hoisington, food; Barbara
Johnstone, decorations; and Renee

Small, posters.



Commencement

The Senior Class has voted
that Commencement will be held
on June 6 and 7, as previously
planned, but that, in accordance
with the O.D.T.’s ruling, only
faculty, students, and local peo-.
ple will be invited. .

The O.D.T, prohibits the hold-
ing of any convention to which
more than fifty people would
come by train. All commence-
ments come under..this ruling.
The Seniors have decided that,
instead of having‘no commence-
ment or one just for faculty
and students, the regular com-
mencement will. take place but
only guests from local areas,
who had previously planned to
come by car, will be invited. ~*

Announcement about changes
in arrangements have been sent
“out. Mr. Owen Lattimore will
still speak as scheduled.

Hoisington Earns
Hinchman Award

For Achievement



Elaine Hoisington ’46, is distin-
guished not only for having won
the Hinchman Memorial Scholar-
ship but for having won it even be-
fore she has filly decided on her
major. Moreover she was also
awarded two other scholarships for
next year—the Maria L. Eastman
Brooke Hall Memorial and the
Sheelah Kilroy Memorial.

In spite of these achievements
she avows that she does have a
completely intellectual nature by
any means. In the coming pro-
duction as “As You Like It” she is
playing the part of William, “a
very stupid character” and the
sort of role she claims to feel right
at home in.

Her major will be either English
or French, but having lived in
Wyndham for the past year, Elaine
is persuaded thatthe French way
of life agrees with her. She claims
its best features are the unaca-
demic atmosphere” and of. course
its proximity to the Inn. , .

Prepared at the High School. of
Montclair, New Jersey; where she
lives, she has held several other
scholarships in her three years at
Bryn Mawr. °In 1942-43 she was
the Alice Day Jackson Scholar; in
1943-44 she was the Sheelah Kil-
roy Memorial Scholar and the
Maria Hopper Sopohomore Schol-
ar; and in 1944-45 ~she was the
Misses Kirk ‘Scholar.

‘Prisoners of Sharwetion’ Urged
“To!Trip it Lightly on the Green



by Louise Gorham °47

“Fellow prisoners of starvation
we have arisen”, cried Miss Sue
Coleman, president of ,the senior
class, to a bevy of sodden may-
polers, “but if you think I’ ‘m just
going to stand up here clacking my
china. clippers and being funny,
well - - -.. Maybe we are out of
our -depth, but it seems £. us that
a few laughs were definitely in
the order of the day.

Morris dancing, Bryn Mawrly
known as maypole dancing, offered
Sue a good chance for a little com-
prehensive ‘psychological research.
“Good poles are hard to get these

‘days, I agree with Mr. Stettinius

and Mr. Molotoff on this,” she re-

ported soberly. “Poles with ribands
on them are practically extinct,”
she added, glancing at one of the
few remnants of the species, Lidge
Gifford, complete with the rare ri-
bands radiating halo-like from her
head.

Technically speaking, the ribands
are traditionally indispensable.
“I’m sorry to keep harping on this
riband business, but you’re just no-
body in Morris Dancing circles un-
less you have a lot-—of ribands
hanging off you. These serve to
float. in the breezes and to trip you
up,” she explained. “We don’t do
nearly enough Morris dancing. in

- Action on Food

The word “food” to most of us spells teas at the Inn or
complaints about last night’s dinner. In spite of, all the pub-
licity given the subject both on and off campus, the large
majority of us are not sufficiently aware of the facts and sta-
tistics involved to appreciate the urgency of the problem bi
feeding Europe.

This week, the News prints a letter bene Miss Lograsso
citing statistics on the amount of deprivation existent in
Europe today. Current Events during the past weeks has
again and again stressed the need for immediate considera-
tion of the problem. And an article by Miss Robbins and
Mrs. Manning featured in this issue of the News presents the
problem in concise and comprehensibe terms. With the com-
ing Alliance Assembly sponsoring Marquis Childs speaking
on “Hungry Europe’, the planned campus publicity on the
subject will end.

_ In the face of this bombasdmant of statistics, no think-
ing individual can fail to realize the necessity for immediate
action on the problem®of the war-caused food crisis. Miss

- Robbins and Mrs. Manning have suggested the first tury. prac-
tical plan for meeting the problem. It should be given care-
-ful consideration by every student’

Music

: Music at Bryn Mawr has all too long been associated
purely with the choir, and its singing in chapel. But after
last Saturday’s performance, no one on campus can deny the
existence of a real group of musically-minded undergraduates
who possess both ability and enthusiasm.

In this last year, the choral music of both the glee club
and the choir has become an integral part of campus life and
entertainment. The singers have enlarged their repertoire to

extend back into old English madrigals and up to include the.

most recent compositions of Irving Fine and Randall Thontp-
son, and under the imaginative and spirited direction of Mrs.
de Varron new life has been brought into this important
realm of activity.

But in view of this, it is writortodinda. that the siartwratnery

tal field on campus should lag so far behind the choral music.|}

Little interest is shown in our orchestra. Too little training
and opportunity is provided for such groups as the Wind
Quartet. , No attempt is made to provide an opportunity for
organized work ‘in the lighter or more modern vein of instru-
mental music.

The Glee Club and Choir have proved their worth, and
in proving it'have attracted not only the respect but the en-
thusiasm of all who have heard them, or take part. in them.
Plans for next year’s choral activities are already being for-
mulated, and their success is assured. But it is strongly to

be hoped that someone, or some group will take enough in-|

terest in the rest:of the potential campus musical activity,

nd produce a complement for these singers, as well as an
outlet for their own talents.

Statistics Show Extent
Of Hunger, - Disease
Among Italians



To the Editor:

Since the Bryn Mawr students
have shown their interest by a
splendid editorial in the College
News and by their desire to collect
‘powdered milk, pencils and tablets
for the destitute Italian children,
I hope that~you may find space for
the following statistics on the

partially liberated countries, tak-
en from the New York Times, Re-
view of the Week, Sanday, March
25, 1945, p. 2:

to the Vatican, he said: “I am

whose people are starving.” (Com-
monweal, April 13, 1945).

It will be illuminating, too, to
compare with these figures the fol-
lowing item taken from Gene Cur-
rivan’s dispatch from the Third
‘Army in Germany to the New
York._Times.on April 21: “The food
scale fory liberated slaves is set up
on the*basis of 2,000 calories a day

. The scale for the Germans,
where the food supply is low, will
be allowed to drop to 1,250.”

The 664 calories which the Ital-
ians are now enjoyiig is slightly
above the amount they have. been
dying on for some nineteen months,
ever since they were “liberated”’.
It is not suxprising to learn from
the President of Italian Relief for
Italy, Inc., that there has been an
increase of 300% in tuberculosis;
an increase of 100% in mortality

food situation in the liberated or

about to represent a country whose

i disease and starvation; that
47 out of every 100 children born
die at ‘birth.

| In the Nation of April 14, Gene
| Rea gives a most heart-rending and
sobering picture of the plight of
Italy’s children: “It is estimated
that there are 300,000 whose par-
ents were killed in the war or can-
not be found.” He tells the story
of two boys about eight and ten
years old, “mere .skeletons and
shivering in their rags” who wan-
dered into Ponte Corvo, orice the
home of 12,000 persons, now com-
pletely razed; they were unknown
and could remember nothing. “The
doctor who examined them. said
they had probably been wandering
for months. Their minds were a
blank.” And the writer adds:
“There dre literally tens of thous-
ands of such cases in Italy today.”

And finally, the article concludes:
“If Italy must depend on itself
alone to rehabilitate its people,
several generations will be lost.”
Can we Americans allow this? Not
unless we wish to breed the bit-
terness and frustration that will
prepare another war. And what
is true for Italy’s children is true
for all the starving children on the
sad surface of this poor old wreck-
ed globe.

(Let me close with another sta-
tistical fact of food consumption

‘the New York Times (March 25):
“Domestic: Civilian per capita
consumption of food in 1944 was
slightly above the 1935-39 average,
or 1,985 compared with 1,955

Group Plans to Enter-
tain Valley Forge
Soldiers



To the Editor:
_ On Wednesday afternoon, May 9,

‘|thirty men from the Valley Forge

General Hospital are coming here
to Bryn Mawr. -They are conval-
escent soldiers who have returned

|from overseas duty.

About two months ago a group
of girls got together to discuss
what college had to offer that the
returing soldier might/ like. We
have a campus that is lévely in the —
springtime, and a grea} many rec-
reational opportunities] and com-
parative quiet. Enlis men and





they must lack, except. for
who are lucky enough to be invited
to private houses, is a chance to
get out in the country and do what-
ever they choose. Here at college,
we have a baseball field, tennis
courts, a swimming pool, and
plenty of trees to just sit under
and talk, if that is what they wonld
like to do.

So we have invited these men to
come here on May 9 and do just-
that. We are planning on baseball
and tennis in the afternoon for
those who want it and a picnic sup-
per out of doors, weather provid-
ing. Afterwards there will be an
informal dance in the -Common
Room, probably lasting’ until about
10 o’clock.

The group that has been invited
is small this time because it seem-
ed better to start out that way. If
this is a success from their point
of view, we hope to continue this.
kind of entertainment on week-ent
afternoons next year, and perhaps
extend the size of the group or-
vary the program. This plan has
been presented to the college in
hall meetings and small groups.
from each hall have volunteered to.
come for this first-time.

The success of this depends a
great deal on our_attitude towards
it. These men gre not coming to.
entertain us, but we are going to.
try to make’ them feel at home..
Often merely a sympathetic ear is
all thatwis necessary. This is not
a duty to perform but an act of
hospitality and it should be good:
for both of us.

Very sincerely yours.
Robin Brooks ’46






There are times when we feel
that Mr. Herben is wrong in mak-
ing his oft-repeated statement,
“The pun is' mightier than the
sword.” As he finished outlining
the material to be covered in -his
English Lit. Class during the re-
mainder of the year, he looked up
with a Beelzebubian smile to re-
mark, “And so, like Lady Godiva
nearing the end of her ride, we
are approaching our clothes.” This
is one time when we disown all
responsibility for the humor that
appears in this column.

Strange .things happen on an
all-women’s campus, but there is
one little completely unexplained
item on our agenda. It seems that
an“ energetic soul finally got
around to doing her laundry, wash-
ed four pairs of pajamas, ~*~
strung all eight pieces illegally o
the fire-escape to dry. The night
was stil] and the clothes-pins se-
cure, but the next morning there
remained only four lonely tops to
the pajamas hanging on the line.
Now our problem is, how energetic
are these clothing drive collectors

Deg-fanciers are numerous in
this world, and far: too many of



—or where was ‘the~night-watch-
man ?. &



them are eager to tell you about | silence.

Incidentally...

the miraculous way in which their. -
canine friends understand literal-.
ly every word that is spoken to
them. But Mr. Gray, professor
emeritus of history, has» demon-
strated finally and irrevocably that
the dog-has an intuitive mind. We
watched him greet a German po-
lice dog charging with fangs bared
the other night with the following :
discourse: “Glug glug glug, goo-
hop haw’ spoken in tones of gen-
tle but firm command. Quietly the
dog went to heel. The secret lies,
according to Mr. Gray, not in the
fact that the animal understands
the tonality of the voice, as many »
psychologists would have it, but
rather in the fact that the animals
are so relieved at finding a human
making sense that they will do
anything, glug -glug.

And incidentally, Mr. Sprague .
has lost all faith in himself. He.

devoted all last Saturday, to par- '

ading up and down the cigarette
line whistling “The Camels: are~
Coming”, braving: all jeers in order
to spread a little bit of comfort
and sweetness and light. The .
Bookstore closed before the cigar-
ettes came, and we hear that Mri

Sprague is about to take a-vow of ©

‘Eva Krafft;

Sweeney Speaks
Un Victorian Art.



Music Room, April 3. ..Pre-Raph-
aelite artists, born into a conven-
tion -ridden, materialistic world
represented a revolt against for-
malized tastes, declaréd Mr. James
J. Sweeney, director at the Museum
of Modern , Art, who discussed
“Victorian Backgrounds of Con-
temporary Art.”

“It is essential to withdraw from
our own enthusiasms to see the
background from which it was in
revolt” the speaker declared. So-
cial reforms of industrialization
ills led to an increase in population,
riches and puritanism. Men were
controlled and oppressed by evan-
gelical beliefs, and inspired with a
faith in progress. The diffusion
of scientific knowledge and the
spread of rationalism during the
nineteenth century had undermined
religious beliefs and created a ma-
terialistic philosophy, Mr. yrneeney
said.

In art, a similar restrictive force,
the Royal Academy, limited ar'tis-
tic expression, in its capacity as
ultimate critic. A strong desire for
“respectability” dominated the
taste of the new-art buyers. Mater-
ialism,
characterized the art of the Victor-
ian periods.

‘Raphael and Reynolds were still
flourishing, the speaker noted,
when Blake and Palmer, “the anc-
ients”, began their decorative
work. Then, W. J. Turner and his
defender, Ruskin, ntotivated the
Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, . of
which Dante Gabriel Rossetti was
the leading spirit. The movement
represented a reaction against ma-
terialism, and was influenced by
the returning religionism, the
speaker stated. By 1854, however,
Pre-Raphaelism had come to an
end.

Of the three main leaders of the
movement, Millais, Hunt and Ros-
setti the latter represented the ve-
hicle of the romantic Pre-Raphael-
ite spirit, and he emanated a real,
personal inspiration to his disci-
ples, Bourne-Jones and William
Morris. Morris, the dominant fig-
ure in the latter phase of Pre-
‘Raphaelite primitivism and in
1861, the Pre-Raphaelite monas-
tery was begun. The genre was
characterized by pure color and de-
sign, detail, simplicity and fresh-
ness. The Pre-Raphaelite influence
spread throughout Europe leading
to linear stylization. Surrealism,
Mr. Sweeney noted, was like Pre-
Raphaelitism, a protest against
materialism and industrialization.’

ability to ettect a compromise in
the Polish controversy is, she feels,
more serious than the actual de-
tails of the problem. ~

JMirs. Manning pointed out that
Russia is now in practically the
same situation we were in at the
end of the last war—she is not cer-
tain whether she would rather join
an international organization or re-
tire into isolationism. dt is per-
fectly possible that Kussia might
withdraw from the San ‘K'rancisco
Conference, particularly if she
feels isolated by the opposition of
the other powers, —

(Mrs. Manning feels, however,
that the important role which Mol-
otov.has so far played in the San
Mrancisco Conference is indicative
of Russia’s present desire to enter
into an international organization.
The arrangément providing ‘four
rotating chairmen, Mr. Stettinius,
Mr. Molotov, Mr. Eden. and Dr. T.
V. Soong has proved very helpful
particularly in giving expression to
the varying forces within. the Con-
ference.

Miss Robbins noted. the forma-
tion of an Austrian - provisional
government with a preponderance

of conservative socialists although

the important posts of Ministers of
Education and of the Interior are
held by Communists. Mrs. Man-
ning pointed out that Russia’s pol-
icy in general has not been to de-
mand a fully ‘Communist govern-
ment in countries she has liberated
but simply one friendly to Russian
views.

The communist tendency which
has so far been indicated in the
French elections.may be important
as revealing the direction of
French popular opinion, Miss Rob-
bins stated.

Stress Shortages

Of Europe's Food

Urge Immediate Action

To Avoid World

Insecurity



by Caroline Robbins and
Helen T. Manning
Two years ago the Netherlands
regulated the butchering of dogs
and cats; last year Dr. J..A. F. van

~ den Belt reported the food situation

as 82 percent below standard. Since
then the flooding of large areas by
allied military action and the re-
moval of even that measure of food
control provided by the Germans
has resulted in further and drastic
deterioration\_In France. and Bel-
gium children are going blind as a
result of vitamin A deficiency. Yet
both countries are free of German
armies in all but very restricted
areas. The situation in Italy was
reviewed by Miss Taylor a few

. week ago and I need add nothing to

her account of the terrible effect
on morale and on enthusiasm for
democracy. Liberation in other
words hag as yet effected little but
a further lowering of standards and
reduction of supplies. Everywhere
in Europe the Herald Tribune of
April 29 reports the worst food
dearth in years will be faced in the
coming months and there is little
hope of immediate improvement by
this season’s crops as sowing has

_beén postponed, or prevented, by

the prolongation of the war into
the spring. Distribution of supplies
is still hampered by military de-
mand, by lack of engines, trucks,
railroad trucks, and by the contin-
ued shipping shortages.

This country is becoming aware
of these cruel facts and realizes
their relation to the fulfillment of
our hopes for world peace. The
Gallup poll reported on April 25
from a nationwide survey that 65
per cent voted for continued ration-
ing in order to give food to people
who need it abroad. These are en-

couraging figures and provide the!

grounds for hope of great- public
pressure on the administration to
organize relief supplies immediate-
ly and to put this task ahead even
of certain military tasks which re-
main when Germany is defeated.

What can we do?

We can talk and write about the
absolute necessity of feeding the
hungry whatever the sacrifice for
ourselves as individuals or as a

- country. We ean refusé to com-

plain, or to listen to complaints
about rationing however stringent,
so long as we are corivinced, that
supplies so saved go not only into

military stockpiles, but into defin-

ite relief programs. We can resign
ourselves to a few more months of
war if that be a necessary concom-
mitant of the use of ships me feed-
ing the hungry.

We can also subscribe Lestalh:

. ately to those organizations which

are trying to relieve some of the
many victims of malnutrition. In
Philadelphia, the Emergency Aid
of Pennsylvania, 1629 Locust Street
has its: officials abroad who can
supply names of needy persons; has

W e | I S ‘iis
Dumbarton Oaks

—-
“Dumbarton Oaks constitutes the
basic agenda of the San Francisco



4 Conference,” declared Mr. Wells in

a discussion of this plan for inter-

national organization at a tea spon- | {

sored by the Alliance. This is the
first of a series of three speeches
planned by a tgpaltzsatugent group
to acquaint undergraduates with

the issues at the San Francisco

Conference.

The function of the -Dumbarton
Oaks plan is declared in’ the pre-
amble to be the maintenance of se-
curity, as distinct from the status
quo. Though at present there is
no mention of justice as a standard
of action, Mr. Wells feels that it is
likely that some reference to jus-
tice and international law will be
introduced at the San Francisco
Conference, though he doubts if an
international bill of rights will be
included.

Of the main organs, the general
assembly, the. security council, the
secretariat and ‘the court, the se-
curity council is by far the most
important since it decides when ac-
tion is needed. The security coun-
cil deals in three different kinds of
questions: the determination of the
issues involved, the possibility of
peaceful settlement by the court,
and the ultimate use of sanctions,
when the veto of the major powers
applies.. The general assembly is
now little more than a discussion
forum, but may acquire greater
authority.

Mr. Wells noted several points
of comparison with the League of
Nations. Dumbarton Oaks, he said,
has rejected the unanimity rule as
a basis for action, demanding only
a majority vote of the general as-
sembly on the less important ques-
tions and a two-thirds vote on the
fundamental decisions. The League,
on the other hand, clung to the un-

animity rule. as an expression of

its belief in sovereign equality.
Dumbarton Oaks also includes def-
inite provision for’ action by force.

The essential feature of Dum-
barton Oaks, Mr. Wells declared, is
that the major powers’ must belong
to make it effective.

No such plan can, of course, re-

port such action when taken in all

possible ways. Otherwise, we shall |

face not peace and eventual pros-

world where international security

Human Maypole i :
Characterizes Unusual May Day

by April Oursler ’46

Winter’s reign may have passed
away on May Day, but at 6:45 on

Tuesday morning it looked. as
though winter’s rain had come to
stay. According to tradition, Miss
McBride and the president of the
Undergraduate Association had
conferred at 4 a. m. to determine
whether or not the weather was
favorable for the May Day festiv-
ities, but somewhere along the
line their caleulations weMt awry.

The only bright spot visible on
the Merion Green horizon was an
enormous red and grey, banner
stretched a full thirty feet along
the branches of the Senior Row
trees. Emblazoned thereon were
the words: “Arise ye prisoners of
starvation, the revolution ig. at
hand”, and the cryptic signature,
“The —Left Wing”. Haverford,
probably still aroused by their es-
capade of last week in which they
succeeded in painting the Swarth-
more buildings red, had suddenly
remembered that May Day and
the anniversary of the Russian
revolution nearly coincided.

’47’s waking song sietintios that
we never could tell when we would
again go a-Maying seemed all too
likely to be fulfilled: May Day
seemed to be slightly different this
year, particularly when some
ninety-odd Seniors sang the “Hymn



in Goodhart

to the Sun” with faces bravely up-

turned to welcome the teeming
rain.

But the Firemen’s Band arrived
undaunted, and in a comparatively
light shower the whole undergrad-
uate body one-two-three-hopped
out to Merion: Green, and twice
around the obviously hurrying
may-pole dancers. Then salvation
came to those whose white dresses
were beginning to cling like
shrouds under the influence of the
frigid downpour.—Miss McBride
adjourned the celebration of May
Day to Goodhart. ~

Aside from the hoop-rolling con-
test, no part of the ceremony was
deleted. ‘When the time came for

may-pole, Miss McBride leaned au-
thoritatively over the lectern and

me call for a may-pole.” And in
solemn silence the ersatz pole,
Lydia Gifford, marched onto the
stage bedecked with. authentic. red
ribbons. to which é¢ight dancers
were smilingly attached.

Scholarships were read as al-
ways, and the class singing, de-
layed only by a fear of too little
time, filled Goodhart with assur-
ances of the beauties of the May
first. By the time ten o’clock class-
es came around, Haverford’s con-
tribution had found its way back.

Hobby Horses, Clowns Appear
In ‘Sleeping Beauty’ Dance-Play



©

by Anne Nystrom °48

“Rose bushes at four” is an-
nounced without fail in every. hall
each noon and the dining room in-
habitants simultaneously drop their
_ forks and spill their soup—Rose
‘ bushes? After a week or two, you
get hold of the idea of rose bush-
es and hobby horses existing as the
girl who sits next to you in Psych-
ology or even. as your room-mate.
It is “Sleeping Beauty”, the play
to be given by the Modern Dance
Club, under the direction of Miss
Petts. Mr. Schuman, the author,
plays the piano accompaniment.

Daily as you walk slowly by the
Gym, from Chem lab. or the ten-
nis courts, you see your friends
’ clad in anything from short dresses
made of cheese-cloth to black suits
and fur coats, gaily emerging from
the Gym door, waving their arms
and kicking their legs, whether
long or short. The damp creatures,
carrying towels, are not dewy rose

| bushes.

They are the four o’clock
swimming class.

The plot of the dance - play
“Sleeping Beauty” is the same as
the “one of the familiar fairy tale
that everyone has read or had read
to her. The King will be Eleanor
Borden %6, and the Queen, Casey

Colvin ’46. However, if you should

chance ‘to inquire at a rehearsal,
why everyone is grinning and bow-
ing to the gaping Gym door, while
Mr. Schuman plays’ something
symbolic on thé piano, the answer

is apt to be, “The King and Queen, |

who are not here, are coming out
to see the new baby, who is not
here. either.”

There seem to be two kings and
it is rumored that two clowns will
supply comic relief from the roof
top.. There is only one question
left in our minds: how, with pap-
ers, finals, and comprehensives, can
there be a “Sleeping Beauty” any-
where on campus?

To Give Lecture



The French Club will present
Mile. Louise de Mont-Reynaud in
a lecture on “Quatre Annees de la
Resistance” at 5:00 on. Monday,
May 7, in the Music Room. She
will talk in French.

(Mlle. de Mont- Reynaud remained
in France during the four years of
occupation. ‘Since the fourth of

August, 1940, she was in the mili-|

tary intelligence,
the Free French and the Centra!
Bureau of French information in
London. At that time she was sent
on three foreign missions, and
helped to organize the parachute
troops and the police force.

During the occupation, Mlle. de
iMont-Reynaud played a leading
role in the underground movement,
and assisted fifteen leaders to es-
cape. In August, 1944, the head-
quarters of the underground, com-
manding the insurrection, was in-
stalled at her house. At that time
she was a. liason officer between the
allied lines in Normandy and Paris.

After theliberation of Paris,
Mlle. de Mont-Reynaud. was made
a Captain in the French army, at
the age of twenty-four. Later she
was attached to the headquarters
on the Seine, in the office of for-
eign information, but was not al-
lowed to go to the front because
she was too well known to the Ger-
mans.

Baldwin, April 27.° The fast,
hard hitting Owl baseball team,
batted their way to an 11-5 victory
over Baldwin, in their first game
of the season.

Although B. M. counted no home
runs to their credit, the playing
throughout. was characterized by
coordination of all the members of
the team. Holding Baldwin to only
two runs until the end of the fifth,
and last inning, the Owls, however,
lost control and three runs were
made by Baldwin on errors

“Bailey ’48, pitcher for the team,
showed spectacular ability in her
accurate, fast balls. In the end of
the fourth inning, she scored three
up and three down.

groups of Hungarian songs and
madrigals, showed an amazing
ability to perform as a unit. The
voices had been chosen to blend -
well, and the clarity of their dic- ~
tion combined. with their interpre-
tive ability made such selections as
“Ho, ha, This World Doth Pass”
among the high spots of the pro-
gram. %,

The ability. to build up within
themselves an emotion appropriate
to the mood of the piece was evi-
dent in all the choral selections and
particularly exemplified by the
“Three Songs from the British
Isles.” The shading of “The Gal-

y Piper” and the richness -6f
feeling in “Turn Ye to Me” gave
evidence of rehearsal that had not ,
so bogged down in detail as to pre-
vent a feeling of spontaneity
throughout.

Posy Johnson ’47, cae rances
Binger ’48, singing the solos from
the opening chorus of Gilbert and
Sullivan’s Gondoliers, handled dif-
ficult roles with a certain aplomb,
and voices that blended well with
the gaiety of the chorus. :

The orchestral side of the pro-
gram rested on the shoulders of the
Woodwind Quartet, and Bessie Ev-
ans ’46, pianist. Bessie played with
a simplicity and dexterity which
brought out the full charm of
Chopin’s “F Sharp Major Impromp-
tu”. It was unfortunate that the
quartet, consisting of Rosamond
Kent, and Barbara Stix, flutists,
Vera. Tozzer, clarinetist, and Ann
Field, oboeist, had had so little
practice playing as a group.
