Taylor Stresses
Duty ofStudents
To Help Faculty
Common Room, June 8. ‘The
raising of faculty salaries now is a
question of the preservation of the
college,” asserted Mrs. Pamela C.
Taylor, retiring president of the
Alumnae Association, at a meeting
of all alumnae, graduates and un-
dergraduates on campus. The pres-
ent faculty salary scale was set in
1920 and obviously is insufficient
now.
A unanimous vote of the alum-
nae council approved holding a
drive for funds. Mrs. Caroline Mc-
Cormick Slade was elected chair-
man.
“Alumnae have always. been con-
cerned with faculty salaries,” Mrs.
Slade stated. “The, president and
the faculty run the college and
keep it going while the alumnae
own it.”
Between two and three million
dollars are needed in order to in-
crease faculty salaries sufficiently.
This amount cannot be raised un-
less every student is “a messenger
in her own home and country of
what Bryn Mawr means,” accord-
ing to Mrs. Slade.
“We of Bryn Mawr have the
chance for an education that will
train us to go ahead in our time
and become citizens of the world;”
we would not have this advantage
without our*faculty, and therefore
we must support it adequately.

“Perhaps there is nothing in
Nature more pleasing than the
study of the human mind, even in
its imperfections or depravities...”
It is from the point of view of
this statement by John Hunter
that Miss Jane M. Oppenheimer
has approached an _ investigation
into the lives of two famous doc-
tors of eighteenth century Eng-
land. In “New Aspects of John
and William Hunter,” published by
Henry Schuman, New York, 1946,
with a Foreword by Fenwick Beek-
man, M. D., an interpretation of
old and newly discovered facts has
been made to give a picture of
the personalities and world of the
two brothers, John and William
Hunter.
The first essay, “Everard Home
and the Destruction of the John
Hunter Manuscripts,’ attempts to
' find the possible motive Everard
Home could have had for destroy-
~ ing the unpublished manuscripts

of his lifelong teacher and friend
after his death. The problem is
approached mainly by an analysis

pace and to a lesser degree that

Alumnae Pass
New Drive Plan
For Next Year
The Alumnae Association held
its annual meeting at 2 P.M. Sat-
urday, in Goodhart, at which it
voted to proceed with the Drive
next autumn. Mrs. F. Louis Slade
(Caroline McCormick) was elected
National Chairman, and Mrs.
James Chadwick-Collins, of Bryn
Mawr, Executive Director. The
meeting was addressed by Mrs.
Francis H. Taylor (Pamela Coyne),
and was followed. by .a meeting of
the student body at which Mrs.
Slade spoke.
The Drive plans to take care of
the College’s need for additional in-
come due to increased expenses
and faculty salaries which were es-
tablished by the 1920 Endowment
Drive and are now insufficient. Dur-
ing the war the College was able
to make certain economies which
enabled it to balance the budget;
now, however, prices are still high,
while the faculty salary budget re-
turns to its maximum, and gradu-
ate scholarships are necessary in
fuller measure. The fees have al-
ready been increased for graduates
and undergraduates, and any fur-
ther increase would make it in-
creasingly difficult for many stu-
dents to come to Bryn Mawr.
The Alumnae Association hopes,
therefore, to raise, through the
Drive, additional money either for
endowments or expenditure over a
period of years, increasing the
yearly income by about $60,000.
The Drive will be divided into two
parts: one, the obtaining as quickly
as possible the necessary money
for faculty salary increases and
scholarship funds, and two, a long
range program for both academic
and building projects, the latter to
include such buildings as language
houses, the biology and _ physics
wings of Park Hall, and necessary
improvements in the Library.
Biologists to Do
Summer ‘Research
This summer Dalton Hall will
be the scene of at least three ex-
periments in biology, to be per-
formed by Miss Gardiner, Mr.
Berry, and five students.
Ruth Leyendecker, Margaret
Hilgartner, and Alice Hedge of the
present graduating class, Rose-
mary Gilmartin *47, and Evelyn
Haller, a graduate student, will
assist in making experiments on
phagocytosis, the ability of the
white blood cells to eat up bacteria.
The fact that anemia increases
phagocytosis was first observed in
humans; last. year Mr. Berry and
Miss Haller found the same phe-
nomenon in rats. During the sum-
mer the biologists will bleed mice
to see if this increases the re-
sistance to bacterial infection.
In her honors work Ruth Leyen-
decker discovered that the injec-
tion of small amounts of detergent,
soluble soap, increased phagocy-
tosis greatly. Ruth will spend part
of the summer on further investi-
gations into this problem.
The students will live with Miss
Gardiner for the summer.g’\._

Faith Is Needed
In World of Today,
Rev. Mutch Says
Goodhart, June 11.
a half-hearted devotion will not
suffice, when we must love the
things we prize with a passionate
intensity and serve them with a
wholehearted loyalty, and if we
are to do this, we must have
faith,’ said Reverend Thomas S&S.
Mutch in his sermon at the tradi-| ;
tional Baccalaureate Service.
Noting the modern emphasis on| }
results rather than on the methods
whereby they are obtained, Dr.
Mutch questioned the value of|:
America’s latest accomplishments, | |
such as the atomic bomb and the
United Nations Organization, in
reference to the disturbed condi-
of the world. The worth. of
modern institutions is being ques-
tioned because the people have no
faith, according to Dr. Mutch.
“As you go out to take your place
and play your part in this des-
perately needy world, there are
certain questions which you must
face and answer, and the answer
in-each case. will be an indication
and a measure of your faith.”
The question, “Do I matter?”
should be answered positively by
the Bryn Mawr seniors because
by background and training they
should be leaders.
The second question, “Is it worth-
while?” can be answered in the
affirmative only if we have faith.
The answer to “Is there hope
for success?” can be found only
in the fountain of religious faith.
“Victory is certain if you have
faith enough to endure to the
end!” :

—
eatured'in Class Day Speeches
By Judy. Marcus, ’49
Class Day Speeches are always
one of the high spots of the year,
because they give the seniors their
last chance (before comprehen-
sives, of course) to demonstrate
what they have learned during the
course of four long years at Bryn
Mawr. The first scholar to speak
this year was a tall erudite-look-
ing Bryn Mawrter answering to
the name of Biffy Horrax, who
wore a yellow head band and a
rather battered white toga that un-
doubtedly would have been more
at home covering a bed than on
the back of Mark Antony. The
subject of Miss Horrax’s address
appeared to be “My Experiences
With the Inter-departmental
Major,” or something like that. .
_Miss’ Horrax’s Bryn Mawr ex-
periences have apparently left her
with the burning conviction. that
“The more freshmen. there are,
the fewer seniors graduate.” She
also exhibited a great deal of in-
tellectual curiosity, asking such
questions as “Why is Henry Miller
in the Raw Book Room?” But
the highlight of her speech was
undoubtedly her solution to the
problem of what to do with the
busts in Taylor. Suggested the
lanky Miss H.,’ “Distribute them
evenly among the students. I’ve
always wanted.a bust!”
Thee secc Ik, “denvere
front of Dalton and punctuated
picturesquely by the barking of
an appreciative canine, was en-
titled, “Spring in the World of
Science, or, Who Doused the
Lights in the Common Room?”
Alice Bronfenbrenner, attired in a
very chic. outfit consisting mostly
of pajamas and bandages, began
her discussion by explaining that
“in the Spring the biology lab is,
very active,” and describing the
charming antics of all the little
dogfishes and chicks. Next she
turned her attention to the science
of geology. “Geology field trip:
an excursion on which each par-
ticipating maiden spends the whole
time looking for some old fossils
to work on.”
Amid a blast of whistles the
third speaker,, Sandra Lane, rode
up to the gym and proclaimed as
she collapsed on the steps that
“relaxation is the keynote of
sports.” (Fashion note: the sedate
charm of Miss Lane’s black cap
and gown were set off most at-
tractively by a number of gay
white bandaids.) Finally recover-
ing sufficient energy to stand up,
she took her audience on a quick
tour through the world of sports,
advising that in athletics you must
always “watch your opponent—you
can’t trust anyone!”
After emerging from the bushes
in front of the library, Connie
Chester launched into an account:

It is customary at this time for us to say.a few words of
farewell to the graduating class. It is with regret that we
say it as we know we.shall miss them. A preview of the gap
they will leave has been felt by all of us while they were deep
in their comprehensives during the past few weeks.
Yet this, the first class to graduate into a world which
is once more at peace, has a future ahead which we shall
watch with interest. Moreover we are eager for our chance
to follow them; for their opportunity has come to do more
than we as students at Bryn Mawr can do to play an active
part in ensuring and maintaining a lasting peace.
Wherever they go, whatever they do we know they will
Z do it well. We wish them all good luck and once more fare-
well.
The Alumnae Drive
The announcement. of the Alumnae Drive for ftactilty|
salaries should make all of us pause and think of what we
are getting as students at Bryn Mawr. Many of us have
come to take rather for granted the excellent teaching, small
classes, and large amount of individual attention which we
receive.. It is only on such an occasion as the announcement
of the drive for faculty salaries that we begin to realize all
_ the exceptional opportunities at our disposal. 3
It is traditional at Bryn Mawr that a light teaching load
with time provided for research will attract a faculty of very
high quality.. It is quite evident, however, that even the at-
tractions of a professorial position which includes time for
independent work will not counterbalance disproportionately
low salaries. It is common knowledge to everyone that the
price level has risen considerably both during the war and
the efforts at reconversion which have followed thereafter.
No group suffers more from an inflation than the profession-
al group with fixed incomes which do not respond to the ris-
ing trend of prices.
The Alumnae Drive is fully as much for our benefit as
. . . it is for that of the professors. The fact that the Alumnae
and the college are willing to undertake such a’ venture shows
that Bryn Mawr i is continuing to balance the condition of the
1 values for hen it statis. We as
alumnae,
and to ourselves to give al the help we can to make the div
_& success. ne
Opinion
Bowles Answers B. M.
Rationing Message;
Explains Views
«The following letter was re-
ceived by Alison Barbour, Presi-
dent of the Alliance.
Dear Miss Barbour:
I was very glad to have your
recent message Pia etic
rationing. s good to learn
that you-favor it if it is neces-
sary as a result of shipments of
food to starving countries abroad.
Judging from the recent public
opinion surveys, about 60 per-
cent of the American people
agree with you.
I was as anxious as anybody :
else to get rid of as many war-
time controls as could be safely
abandoned after V-J Day. But I
was strongly opposed to discon-
tinuing rationing unless we had’
assurances that this could be
done without interfering with the
task of meeting our obligations
abroad. We received those as-
surances. But I think it is clear
now that our rationing machin-
ery was dismantled too soon.
I certainly hope that in the
final analysis rationing won’t be
necessary. It would be difficult
to reorganize the program and to
recruit the necessary people to
handle it. However, I know you
agree that we must certainly ful-
fill our promises to do every-
thing within our power to re-
duce starvation conditions over-
seas. We must do this purely and
simply to save human lives. We
must do it to help rebuild the
economies of foreign countries
which have been disrupted by
war. And we must do it to help
build the foundation for a last-
ing peace.
Heavy shipments of grain
abroad will almost certainly re-
sult in reduced production of
meat and poultry for consump-
tion in this country next fall and
winter.
If these shipments abroad re-
duce our supplies here at home
to a point where we are threat-
ened with serious maldistribu-
tion, increasing black-market ac-
tivity, and even stronger up-
ward pressure on prices, then I
believe we should have the cour-
age and good sense to go ahead
with the rationing program.
Again, I hope that won’t be
necessary. We'll know’ more
about it within the next thirty
days. But one thing is certain.
If rationing does become neces-
sary, it can succeed only if it
is done with ‘the full ‘approval
and cooperation of the big ma-
jority of American housewives,
businessmen, and farmers.
Thank you again for letting
me have your opinion.

Sincerely,
Chester Bowles,
Director of Economic Stabilization.

Hunter Achievements

motive extablished.
The second essay, “William
Hunter and His Contemporaries,”
is not as clearcut in its outline.
William Hunter was_ the . less
famous of ‘the two brothers and
John’s teacher. His contribution
to obstetrics was like that of his
brother’s to surgery, but was less
for medicine as a whole. The rea-
sons for the quarrel with his
bréther John as well as for his
political actions is sdught in an
analysis made through descriptions
of William Hunter’s relations with
famous contemporaries such as
King George III and _ especially
David Hume, the philosopher.
In both essays a careful and
thorough interpretation of the
facts concerning the two brothers
and their contemporaries had been
made to gain any possible clue to
their personalities and thus to
evaluate their achievements. A
delicate balance has been kept in
presenting the facts on one hand
and their interpretation, the per-
‘sonality of the men, on the other.
The essays show the fine ethical
sense which is the mark of a true
scholar and in addition are writ-
ten well enough to be interesting
as biographical material. The book
is a tribute alike to the pure sci-
entists and to those of the medical
profession who are themselves sci-.
entists.

thing that Miss Chester has been
doing ever since, but proved she

fessors that “I’ve always been in-

so went the class song of the sev-
enth class to enter Bryn Mawr,
now celebrating its 50th anniver-
sary.
In 1892, despite a widely diffuse
impréssion that no Woman who was
not forced to earn her own living
goes to college, untess she has good
reason to think she would not be
a social success, the class of ’96 ar-
rived to gain “a higher education;”
one came on the strength of an ad
in “The Century Magazine’. Bryn
Mawr still considered itself an ex-
periment, and the student was
thought by her friends at home to
be “an awe-inspiring and not en-
tirely pleasing phenomenon.”
The athletic field was completed,
“nicturesque with its encircling
road and bicycle track” of four
laps to the mile, and designed to
serve as a skating pond in winter.
The striking feature.of athletics.
was the Swedish and German phy-
sical _ training, and records show
that frail Freshmen with a “total
strength” of 241.4 kg. had become
female Hercules by their Senior
year with a “t.s.” of 292.5 kg.
The class remembers well their
knee length bloomers for gym.
(And even they thought they were
absurd!) When they were Sopho-
mores basketball was introduced
and an ancient photo shows ’96
wearing corduroy skirts for the
first time daringly above the an-
kle, buttoned gaiters to cover the
revealed leg, and leg o’mutton
sleeved shirtwaists with ties.
To lectures the students wore
caps and gowns. Once every two
weeks in honor of ice cream for
dinner they wore evening dress to
that meal.
The rooms were fully furnished
with tea tables, Turkish rugs, and
Victorian bric a brac. Every girl
had one alcohol lamp with which
she studied, which lighted her to
bed and over which she roasted
marsh mallows.
Being an enterprising group, in
1894 when some of ’96’s articles
were refused by the ‘“Lantern,’”
they published their own magazine
“Unburnt Matches” (those not
needed to light the lantern.) They
prepared exams in the Vaux woods.
and chipped sheep brains out of
the skulls to study for Biology.
As Freshmen, they gave The Peter-.
kin Papers ard as Seniors The Cri-
tic.

Long Distance
Calls than a
year ago
_ Just one YEAR AGo the Bell
System was serving 21,600,000
telephones.
There are now 400,000 more
telephones and Long Distance
calling has steadily increased
even though the war is over.
Actually the volume of calljng
is now about 40% higher than
the average for all the war
years.
That’s why we are asking you
to please help by making only
necessary Long Distance calls.
We are building new lines and
new switchboards, but it will
take a while to get them into
use. In the meantime we'll ap-
preciate your help and under-
standing.
