B. M. Participates
In Student Conf.
On Racial Affairs

Carol W&govern, ’48, and Sarah
Berman, ’48, represented the Alli-
ance at the Intercollegiate Confer-
ence on Racial Affairs of the Stu-
dent Committee for Educational
Democracy held at Princeton, De-
cember 6th and 7th. This confer-
ence, known as the SCED, was the
result of a committee set up last
year to. work for the intérchange
of information on the efforts of
various colleges to eliminate racial
and religious discrimination.

The program was designed to
cover -the discussion of a wide
range of topics. Three speakers,
including Dr. Eduard C. Linde-
mann, of the New York School for
Social Work, talked on racial prob-
lems as affecting the American
way of life. The rest of the con-
ference consisted of panels in
which the students discussed three
general fields of study: ‘‘Educa-
tion for Democracy,” “Admission
Policies of Colleges” and “Action
in the Community.”

In the debate over methods to
be applied in the community, a
proposal was brought forward for
a general advertising campaign by
which posters would be put up in
public places urging non-discrim-
ination. Sarah Lawrence College
described the inter-racial nursery
which it has set up as a community
measure. The panel on admissions
proposed that —all_questions—con-
cerning religion and race on ap-
plication blanks be abolished and
that photographs of the applicants
should not be required before the
decision on admission.

The students as a whole felt that
quota systems in all colleges should
be completely eliminated. This
can be done far more effectively by
the firm co-operation of the vari-
ous achools in which quota systems
now exist. It was toward this end
that the Conference was designed.

Haverford and B. M.
Give Carol Service

Continued from Page 1

under the able direction of Wil-
liam H. Reese, they gave a polish-
ed and charming rendition of Han-
del’s music.

Haverford’s first song, “Christ is
Born of Maiden Fair,” strained a
tenor and was no stirring begin-
ning to their share in the perform-
ance. “Pat-a-pan,”’ which offers
fascinating opportunities for men’s
voices, dragged spiritlessly to an
undistinguished conclusion. The
Glee Club improved with_‘The
Cradle Song of the Shepherds.”
There suddenly seemed to be more
altos and both dynamics and enun-
ciation improved.

Mixed Chorus

The mixed chorus sang two|
songs, Pergolesi’s “Glory to God
in the Highest” and “L’Adieu des
bergers a la Sainte Famille.” The
orchestral accompaniment was a
decided addition. Soloists Henny
Burch and Barbara Nugent sang
well in the former selection. The
French carol had beautiful har-
monies. Both choruses sounded as
though they enjoyed what they
were singing and their French ac-
cent has improved since last yean

Service was a slight disappoint-
ment because of the choice of
songs. At least I am apt to go to
a carol service hoping to hear the
most “Christmasy” music possible
—like “Wassail!” which the chorus
sang last year, or “On the Twenty-
fifth December,” songs not—neces-
sarily well-known but having the
same spirit that the old familiar
carols possess. Also, the devotion
of half the service to old English
carols meant the exclusion of a
more varied international selection,
but that is a matter of taste.
