SDA Holds First
Campus Meeting

Led by Pamela Stillman, ’49, and
Marjorie Low, ’50, the Bryn Mawr
chapter of the SDA held its inaug-
ural meeting on Wednesday, April
23. The constitution of the na-
tional organization was read, as
well as its four basic principles,
which are as follows:

“1, We dedicate ourselves as an
organization of progressive stu-
dents to the achievement of free-
dom and economic security for all
people everywhere through educa-
tion and political action.

2. We believe that rising stand-
ards of living and lasting peace
can be attained by democratic
planning, enlargement of funda-
mental liberties and international
co-operation.

3. We believe that these objec-
tives can be attained only if the
wealth and power of the organized
forces of reaction are overcome by
political action in accordance with
democratic principle.

4. We believe that communism,

ment of not only foodstuffs but
also investments and manufactur-
ers is desirable and inevitable. The
imperial problem is equally dis-
turbing to the British, Mr. Read
said. The major points of discus-
sion were fading trade relation-
ships with dominions and changing
spheres of influence in Australia
and New Zealand. :



like all forms of totalitarianism, is
incompatible with these objectives.
In our crusade for an expanding
democracy and against fascism
and reaction, we therefore welcome
as members of SDA only those
whose devotion to its principles is
unqualified.”

The next meeting of the SDA,
which will henceforth hold weekly
meeting, will decide upon a con-
stitution and a future program.
Officers will be elected and the con-
stitution ratified.

Viteles Analyzes Industrial Psychology,
With Emphasis on Worker Selection

according to common sense meth-
ods.” This method, utilizing the
interview, references, etc., has not
been supplanted, but merely sup-
plemented by psychological tests.



Seideman, ’49.
Arts Night

The total profits of Arts Night
amounted to $62.65. This sum has
been applied to the student quota
for the Drive. Cash receipts were
approximately $300. Expenses in-
cluded programs, props, lights and
Federal Tax of $59.88.

Better results are obtained when
tests are used. Dr. Viteles showed
several slides of graphs illustrat-
ing the great increase in the per-
centage of workers who proved
satisfactory in their jobs, when
psychological tests are applied in
their selection.

These tests are, of course, not
100 per cent dependable. They
merely increase the chance of good
selection. From these tests, it can
rbe calculated accurately how many
workers must be hired in order to
have a desired number left at the



end of a training period.

Here’s a perfectly strange man looking you in

the eye. You’ve been introduced...but it’s up
to you to carry on from there. Maybe your go-
between threw in some clues along with your

names. Maybe you're exposed to each other without benefit
of life-lines. What on earth is there to say to this man?
The thought panics some of you into sticky silences. You
grin sheepishly at him, wishing with your whole heart he’d
hurl an opener at you. But maybe he thinks ladies should
make the opening gambit. So it could be a draw...
with each of you muffing your chances of making an
impression on the other. But it needn’t...when it’s so easy
to start the ball rolling.
What is there to talk about? People are the liveliest topic.
“Do you know...?” always gets an answer. People do things,
say things, wear things, win honors, go places. Things hap-
pen to people...funny things, weird things, odd things. “Had
you heard...?”can start you off. Places are easy to talk
about too. Places you’ve been...places you’re going...places

you'd rather be than where you are right now. When you've

exhausted the tangibles, start on ideas. “What do you think
about... ?” will set him chatting. You'll even find yourself being
talked down if you come out flatly with “I think...!”Talk about
things you’ve never done...people you’ve never met...places
you've never seen...things you. know nothing about. It’s a sure
way to pry information out of a stranger.

Conversation’s a game of associated ideas. One thing
leads to another. And like most games, it requires at
least two players. It’s not a monologue. Toss words out...
then wait for responses. It takes two active ears...as well as

a nimble tongue !
