of this resolution were sent to
President Truman, Secretary
Brynes, Secretary -Anderson, and
various members of Congress. At
the same time a food conservation
program ‘was instituted on campus.
' In April, Bryn Mawr, Haverford,

_ and Swarthmore formed an inter-

collegiate committee to gain the

_ cooperation of other colleges in the

food emergency. Many began their
own adaptation of Bryn Mawr’s
program, and it was endorsed at
the. Seven-College Conference.

On campus itself the year’s main
topic of discussion was “creative
interests;’ and there was a con-
tinued demand for more oppor-
tunities for creative expression. In
her opening speech President Mc-
Bride noted that more freshmen
were concerned with the fine arts
and humanities than there had
been since before the war.

The editorial policy or the Title,
the-campus literary magazine, was
a subject of sincere interest and
criticism, and its scope was wid-
ened as a result. A large number
of students regularly attended the

Village,Haverford,
Ardmore Sell All
Freshmen Need

For the benefit of those of you
who have come totally unprepared
for your various needs, here is a
pocket guide to nearby shopping
facilities. Bryn Mawr, Haverford,
and Ardmore together can supply
almost everything you want, and
unless you’re a spendthrift you
won’t need to venture into Phila-
delphia the first week.

For the curtains, bedspreads,
pillows, ete., that your bare room
cries out for, try Strawbridge and
Clothier in Ardmore. Or for the
little knick-knacks and thingama-
gigs to brighten the place up, go
to see what Stockton’s have to of-
fer, or the Mayo place, or the
Carman Gift Shop in Ardmore.
For a definitely Mexican touch,
however, don’t forget to try the
Mexican Shop, also in Ardmore—
and leave us remind you that all
these places carry beautiful as-
sortments of jewelry and doo-dads
for yourself, too.

The Hayden Hardware, in Bryn
Mawr, is fine for those sockets you
need (watch College rules, please)
or maybe the metal things i
hang your pictures without 4
turing the walls. Both Hayden
and Jakes Hardware Store, also in
Bryn Mawr, carry all the teapots
and baby Silexes you’d want to
sustain you in the afternoons, or
the wee small hours while Fresh-
man .Comps.are ‘being written.

If it’s clothes you’re worrying
about, in Bryn Mawr itself Nancy
Brown, the Tres Chic Shoppe, the
Style Shop, and Martie’s Shop can
all provide you with an assortment
of skirts, sweaters, and dresses for
all those teas you have to attend.
A little further away, in Ardmore,
you can find Ye Ladye Shoppe,.or
Francy’s Dress Shop, or Elizabeth
K. Brownback’s Dress Shop, on

has made its mark with several

‘Among the usual “faux pas” of
Freshmen Week, the most glaring
was ‘made, not by a member of
'5O, but by the Welcoming Com-
mittee, who extended enthusiastic
greetings to several new wardens
and offered—_to-escort--them to
swimming tests and angel robes.
Then there was the case of the
‘politically aware” Freshman, who
2zagerly inquired when the Senate
zlections were held and if Bryn
Mawr had a House of Representa-
tives too,

And, of course, there was the
philosophically inclined student
who announced that she was “sim-
ply fascinated” by Spinoza. At
the other extreme, there was the
girl who, on being guided through
the lower regions of Taylor, in-
quired if this was where they
“stored the liquor.”

The Class of ’50 has already
made the acquaintance of the Fac-
ulty. In fact, the scavenger hunt
brought to light several pictures of
our estimable professors in their
less dignified days. But for those
who wonder how the Faculty feel
about Freshman Week, we can
only report a remark overheard as
a group of them entered Wyndham
garden for the tea: “Steel your-
self. They’re standing out there
five deep!”

Beware, Freshmen, beware espe-
cially the confused girl who comes
up to you with: “I wasn’t at the
meeting yesterday. What is the
tune?’”? There are other methods,
too, and far more subtie.

Historically, Parade Night cen-
ters in a bonfire. Led by the Tire-
men’s band blaring forth the sa-
cred tune, guided by Junior-borne
torches, the Freshmen’ march
through the night until suddenly
they are rolling and scrambling
madly down a hill towards a huge
fire, surrounded by_a determined
ring of Sophomores. The band
crashes louder and louder, the fire
gets hotter anc_hotter, and the ring
is broken.

Harmony again reigns, however,
as everyone gathers to sing college
and class songs in Pembroke Arch,
and hall parties given by the
Sophomores to the Freshmen fol-
low immediately afer. .

This celebration on Tuesda
night répresents the repetition of
a tradition with a long history of
violent song snatchings and rough-
house.

In the primeval days it was cele-
brated with artificial materials ard

the three upper classes dressed as
weird devils, witches, and strange
beasts. Everyone danced around
the huge bonfire on the lower
hockey field while “Froshie” was
burned in effigy.

Roman candles gave way to
torches in 1915 which in turn gave
way to lanterns with the advent
of World War II. Although the
war is over, torches may still be
unavailable and lanterns may



again be carried this year.



This year, the most recent in-
novation on the campus is*the ac-
quisition of East Hall, not to be
confused with Pembroke East, and
“definitely not for leftovers.” It
is the first time that Bryn Mawr
has had a hall for Freshmen only,

which presumably you of the class of 1950 here — Bryn

Yet the world cannot wait for you to graduate from col-

tire from any effective participation in present day events.
Last year, living in an atmosphere of uncertain peace, we at
Bryn Mawr struggled against a tendency to become inhabi-

the work done by the College in famine relief not only by
packaging and*send food to Europe, but by conserving food

You of the Freshman class can bring new thought and
new activity to Bryn Mawr. By your alertness you can help

Bryn Mawr to continue as an important and aware factor in

the community and in the world.

following vital statistics as a guide
to extra-curricular activities in the
more frivolous line. As a Bryn

of tried and true eating places ad-
judged to satisfy the strictest
gourmet. We do not guarantee a
cure for all types of nervous break-
down, but the night-life of Phila-
delphia and vicinity is not to be
under estimated.

Solve Problems

At, Maids’ Bureau

' Freshmen, are you wondering
how to sew ruffles on curtains and
trim windowseat covers? Go to the
Maids’ Bureau for expert help.
There you will find slip-covers,
bedspreads, and curtains, inexpen-
sively made to order.

An ambitious and well-planned
organization, the—Maids’ Bureau,
situated in Taylor Hall, is open
from 3:00 to 5:30 o’clock every
afternoon. Jeanette Holland, one
of Pembroke’s maids, is in charge
of buying the materials, so that
students may have a large selec-
tion from which to choose. Pearl
Edmunds, Taylor’s maid, has the
arduous job of secretary. They
specialize in sewing to order, any-
thing and everything students need
or. desire.

Porters as well as maids work in
the bureau, also only in their spare
time. Besides making chaircovers,
bedspreads and curtains, they
make, stuff, and cover pillows.
They are expert at caning and
tying springs in recalcitrant chairs.
Dresses are made and even de-
signed. Alterations are done
quickly and at low cost. If you
aren’t on familiar terms with a
needle and thread, go to the Maid’s
Bureau.

Freshman Plays



Will Begin Soon

Freshman Hall Plays, directed
by a committee of upperclassmen,
will soon be under way. These
plays are to be presented the end
of October or the beginning of
November in competition for the
coveted silver plaque nowheld by
Pembroke East.

In each hall the Freshmen will
soon meet to elect a committee to
read and choose the one-act plays
to be given. The directors are
members of the upperclassmen
committee, but an assistant direc-
tor and stage manager are elected
from the Freshman class. All
Freshmen may try out for the
plays—either acting or working on 4
costume committees, prop com-
mittees, or business committees.
There is ample opportunity for all.

The Freshman Hall Plays are
watched with an appraising eye
for signs of talent, to be exploited
in the big Freshman Show.

Flexner lecture series on “Modern
Art,” presented by Dr. Alfred H.
Barr of..The Museum of Modern
Att in New York City. In April
the long vacant Art Studio in the
Otis Skinner Memorial Workshop
was again opened, under the aus-
pices of a newly founded Art
Group. Instruction was provided
twice a week by a Philadelphia
artist.

A high point was reached in
March with the ambitious and suc-
cessful production of Arts’ Night.
Two one-act plays, written by stu-
dents, were presented, as were
[dance selections illustrating both
modern and Duncan _ technique.
Original compositions by members
of the Harmony classes were
played .by the ¢ollege orchestra
and a double-quartet sang. There
was also an exhibition of painting,
sculpture, and photography. It is
hoped that Arts’ Night will become
a permanent Bryn Mawr tradition.

“Current Events was a found-:

Manning, while giving a preview
of Current Events for the coming
year. It is a brief weekly meeting
at which members of the faculty
try to highlight and clarify by dis-
cussion a particular recent occur-
rence. She emphasized, however,
that it is not a summary to save
the students the trouble of reading
the papers, but that people should
bring their own ideas and opinions
to contribute.

In former years, there have been
three or four regular speakers, but
this year, due to the fact that
many of the faculty have been ac-
tive in public affairs both at home
and abroad, they will be less reg-
ular. The committee feels that
they will have new and enlighten-

haven for many.

After dark: You can dance at
the Covered Wagon and eat a most
satisfactory dinner there. The
Blu Comet on Lancaster Pike of-
fers sandwiches, coffee, and a juke-
box. More drinking than dancing
at the General Wayne and Wynne-
wood House in Wynnewood; dinner
or cocktails at McIntyre’s Manna
Bar in Ardmore. For beer and
spaghetti, the Conestoga Mill on
County Line Avenue, and for mint
juleps that are out of this world,
King of Prussia Inn. If you must
have name bands and don’t mind
sitting on the floor between dances,
you can go to Sunnybrook in
Pottstown.

Philadelphia: Before concerts or
in the middle -of a shopping spree,
lunch at the Dairy Grill in Wana-
maker’s basement, or at Whitmans
on Chestnut Street near I7th.
Some day you might like to have
your fortune told over tea at the
Russian Inn on Locust Street.

For dinner you will go to the
Bellevue-Stratford to dance be-

football games, to Bookbinders for
seafood, or way down to Chancel-
lor Street to Arthur’s for steaks in
an Old English atmosphere. When
you have tried these, you may fall
back on Stouffer’s, Broad Street,
or Michaud’s where the candles are
in old wine bottles and the French
onion soup is.magnifique, or Jimmy
Duffy’s, both on Walnut Street
near 15th.

Dancing is best at the Ben
Franklin or the Adelphia if you
like hotels; at the Club Bali on
Broad Street, or the Little Rath-
skeller on Broad and Spruce

Then, to get to the more lux-
urious things in life—if— you’d
love to have some flowers to bloom

Bryn Mawr, can supply you with

A little further away, but just as
effective, is the R. S. McCawley
Book Shop in Haverford. And the
Bryn Mawr News Agency handles
magazines and papers.

Movies—the nearest—are at the
Suburban and Ardmore Theaters
in Ardmore. The ‘(Bryn Mawr movie

Sporty ’50’s Spirit Undeterred

/

By Wet Court, Invincible Faculty

The class of ’50 was initiated into
Bryn Mawr athletics by losing’ the
Faculty-Freshman baseball game

17 to 7. For the first time in
years the Faculty team exhibited
a full line-up of Faculty players
ably assisted by the pinch hitting
of Mr. Sprague. Despite heckling
from Mr. Hewitt, the football tac-
tics of Mr. Watson, and the Major
League hits of Mr. Berry, the
Freshmen made the most of their
seven hits and showed their ability
to stand up against the experts.



The same enthusiasm was ap-



parent as hordes of athletic look-
ing members of the class of ’50
turned up for the round robin ten-

nis on Friday morning. Their
spirits were somewhat dampened
as they were faced by locked
courts and the news that a cloud-
burst on Tuesday prevented any
playing.

The hockey fields, however, are
ready for all excess Freshman en-
ergy this fall. The appearance of
an active group of ‘stick swingers

on Saturday morning gives Miss

Grant promise of fresh material
