Princeton Showers B. M. Chorus
With Vocal and Social Weekend

by Barbara Bettman ’49

Singing with Princeton was an
interesting experience. It was def-
initely a vocal weekend, though
for many of the girls it was quite
social also, and for almost every-
one it was very wet most of the
time. The travel situation was most
unusual and extremely involved.
Two buses left Bryn Mawr (half
an hour late) Saturday morning,
followed by “the oral people” an
hour later.

After a “delicious” lunch of so-
called chicken a la king (the king
is dead, long live the king), the
chorus rehearsed for four hours,
spending most of the time making
wrong entrances. Mr. Weinrich, di-
rector of the Princeton chorus,
does not believe in directing his
choruses during a performance.

At this point the chorus had
supper with Princeton, though af-
ter lunch many of the members
chose to seek another—any other—
place in which to dine. Some of
the girls stayed at Princeton, hav-
ing optimistically reserved. rooms
in advance. Their optimism proved
to be well-founded, as almost ev-
eryone who stayed saw Princeton
night life in some form. “Will too
much beer hurt my voice?” seemed
to be the universal question, though
lack of sleep was a close second.
It rained slightly (a euphemism)
hampering activities, especially
those of a couple who had gone
canoeing.

High spot of the concert Sun-
day afternoon was Mr. Weinrich’s
donning of his shoes, coyly hidden
behind the organ. The mass was
followed by what will probably be
henceforth referred to as the Great
Princeton Downpour—one way, at
least, to get one’s money’s worth
out of the academic gown. Two bus-
es left at five-thirty, leaving be-

Drexel Smears

B.M. in Baseball

Bryn Mawr, May 9th. “Pleasant-
ly smeared” goes down as the of-
ficial comment on Thursday’s var-
sity baseball game. Drexel 15, Bryn
Mawr 7 is recorded in the score-
book.

Hardball, Bryn Mawr’s usual
forte and the alleged despair of
Drexel, was played during the first
half of the game in which Drexel
lead by seven runs; during the
next half, playing softball, Bryn
Mawr managed to catch up as the
team scored four runs to their op-
ponent’s five.

Joanne Mott ’47, Captain and
Shortstop caught several difficult
fly balls, while Carolyn Seamans
47 pitched very well. ,

The Drexel team showed great
accuracy in fielding and excellent
catching.





hind not over twelve people, while
the third bus, scheduled to depart
at 9:30, simply never arrived, and
the trip ended by train for those
individuals who had wished to pro-
long their stay at Princeton.

The general expression of opin-
ion was that “everytime we got
inside it stopped raining”, but Girl-
ish ‘Ardor Will Not be Dampened,
and the proverbial good time was
had by all.

level of organization, control al-
ways resting with the constituent
membership, and ultimately with
the individual members of the re-
tail businesses at the base.

Bryn Mawrtyrs can observe the
operation of a basic unit of con-
sumer cooperation in the Main
Line Cooperative in Bryn Mawr
village. In a growing’ number of
American colleges and universi-
ties’ students are gaining knowl-
edge of the movement on the one
hand through the operation of co-
operatives supplying their own
consumption needs — books, sup-
plies, dry-cleaning and other serv-
ices, housing, réecreation—and on
the other hand through the inclu-
sion of the study of cooperative
principles in the economics courses
of the institution.

In _the Philadelphia area co-
operators are running a growing
number of food stores, a funeral
“co-op”, an optical “co-op” (1218
Chestnut Street) and a play “co-
op”. At nearby Moorestown a
housing cooperative is organized
and ready to build as soon as ma-
terials become available.

Official spokesman for the Amer-
ican Cooperative movement is the
Cooperative League, U. S. A. with
offices ,in Chicago, New York and
Washington. The constituent re-
gional office for this area is the
Eastern ‘Cooperative League at—44
West 148rd Street, New York City.
30. They supply informative lit-
erature, speakers: and organiza-
tional advice and guidance, though
service may sometimes be slow due
to pressure of demand.

Sincerely yours,

“HAWAIL TO HEAVEN”

Charming Hawaiian — American
novel by a Hawaiian Poet and Novelist,

“Sweetest, loveliest, most glorious
book I have ever read. Others seem
ordinary and trivial by comparison.
So beautiful it seems sacred; 50
convincing and powerful, it washed
the memory of all inferior books
from my mind. Was never so fas-
cinated by anything in my life.

“Every. page sparkles with en-
chantment. A cascade of wisdom
and beauty, revealing so much in-
formation of special value to girls.
Like immortal music, it leaves you
stunned by its indescribable glory.”
