Although the first question was
satisfactorily answered, the sec-

Hlent ‘Sheppie Glass, only “brought
ut very vividly that N.S.A. is not
understood on campus.” There
as, according to Sheppie, a very
ixed reaction in the halls. Stu-
ents questioned, among other

particularly, whether Bryn Mawr
could effectively be represented, or
even desired to be represented, in|'
the association.

H'ford Professors
Criticize Students
Last week’s issue of the Haver-
ford News carried a “Faculty Re-
ply” to the problems of curriculum
education. Below are _ reprinted
excerpts from this article by Wal-
lace T. MacCaffrey, Associate
al History, and Marcel Gutwirth,
Associate Professor of French.
By ‘reprinting these “highly
tentative” suggestions, the News
does not mean that they should be
put ‘into’ practice at Bryn Mawr,
even if this were possible. We are
simply offering them as “food for
thought” as regards the curricu-
lum question.
_ “We do not think (Haverford’s)
resources are mobilized to their
highest potentiality . . . In matters
intellectual our students remain
in leading strings in many impor-
tant ways and are more than-con-
tent ‘to do so. . . Most striking is
‘the prevalecce: of an essentially
‘puerile and certainly non-intellec-
tual concern with marks in them-
selves ... We should like to see
a marked de-emphasis on ‘passing’
a course. .
. Both the lecture system
and. the limited electives are es-
sentially educational short - cuts
. » We are prepared to defend
their use in the American system
as an answer to the crying defic-
iencies of most of our secondary
education.
. We envision the first two
years am college as a period in
which two things are done. First,
the. student is given some notion
of the varieties of disciplined in-
tellectual experience .. . Secondly,
we do a hasty repair job to make
‘up for what the secondary schools
did not do.
We regard the junior and
ically different kind of experience,
penetrating study of a particular
field ... No college can ever be a
great ‘dollege unless its students}
‘have a strong sense of
‘a commitment, not of the mind
alone, but of the soul as well, to
‘the world. of ideas.”

honorary degrees from a number

in 1955, and the present state of

in Greece. :
| In addition to the lecture, which
will be illustrated, he will conduct
a seminar for graduate and special
undergraduate students in Greek
and archaeology.
At present, Mr. Wace is retired
main goal is to enliven the interest
in Undergrad for I feel that is the
means by which .it..will be able to
function successfully.” To accoim-

tions to the “Big Five”, more. hall
meetings and more extensive pub-
licity of the school’s activities, -
Jane’s ideas for the purposes
and possible improvements of Un-
week’s isue of The College News.
“There I ‘suggested -committees,
publicity and other means of co-
operation between the board and
the actual student body. In my
opinion, that is the main deficiency
of the present set-up. Undergrad
has no way of letting the stadents
know of its activities. A few of
the halls aren’t even represented.”
Jane was notified yesterday af-
ternoon by Sarah Stifler, the pres-
ent president. She'‘was then pre-
sented with a corsage of red roses.
“Speaking of Sarah,” said Jane,
“I can’t praise her enough for all
she has accomplished. Few péople
on campus realize that she was one
of the main persons responsible
for the new election ‘system, and
I think she deserves a lot of credit.
My only hope is that I can live up
to the wonderful job shé has done
as Undergrad President, parties

election change.”
Jane and the other new skies
will assume their official duties
after spring vacation. “I can't be-
lieve it,” she said. “Seems ‘like

Ferguson Heads
Self-Government
Patty Ferguson, newly-elected
President of Self Gov, thinks that
the organization has an “educa-
tional function” which it often
doesn’t fulfill. “Sel Gov’s chief
failure,” said Patty, “is that it is
limited to the people who get
caught, or to the two boards which
run it.” Although it is still too
early to make’ any definite plans
for increasing students’ knowledge
of the organization, Patty is very
much in favor of such projects as
the mock trials.
As the first officer elected under
the new straw-ballot election sys-
tem, Patty feels that the new pro-
cedure is “much better” than the
old nominating committees, She
feels strongly, however, that Self-
Gov candidates should write state-
ments about their ideas and poli-
cies, | which they did not do this
year. All other candidates for the

Memorial For Charles J. Rhoads
oan me Discussed by Dresident McBride
sel of the Permanent Senate In-] :
The'memorial service for Charles
J. Rhoads will serve best as a trib-
ute to him if it helps us to think
of the future of the college. Mr.
Rhoads’ death this winter means
critical changes. Members of the
Board and the faculty are at work
will take long consideration.
Mr. Rhoads’ life spans the per-
iod from Dr. Taylor’s first plans
for Bryn Mawr in the late 1870's.
He has for a long while been the
only person- who has known each
college generation. This experi-
ence was of great aid to the col-
lege, particularly because it was
combined with an unceasing inter-
est in Bryn Mawr’s future. Right-
ly then our memorial service for
him on the 15th should be thought
of in relation to his unique associ-
ation with Bryn Mawr and his con-
tinuing concern with the new
stages of its planning.
His death makes present mem-
bers of the college think beyond
their individual experience in Bryn
Mawr. The memorial service should
help. us to consder not only his
service, but what the college has
been and should be. The time is
one of particularly difficult deci-
sions, when we shall miss his lead-
ership and need the interest and
thought of all those who find them-
selves taking this-larger relation-
ship to the college,
Philosopher Marias

Dr. Julian Marias, principal

speak at an open meeting of the
Spanish and Philosophy clubs
March 15 at 8:30-p.m. in the Ely
lecture on “Ortega’s Philosophy as
a Spanish Interpretation of the
World.”
An influential philosopher in his
own right, Dr. Marias was born in
Madrid ‘in''1914 and studied phil-
osophy under Ortega during the
1930’s. As an author he has writ-
ten a book on Unamuno, an intro-
duction to philosophy entitled Rea-
son and Life, and has published
several articles, including a recent
symposium on existentialism in
the Yale French Studies.
In 1948 Dr. Marias; together
with Ortega, founded the Instituto
de Humanidades with the hope of
creating in Madrid ‘an academic
institution free from political and
social pressures. Whén the Franco

Year of Decision
‘A week ago today President Eisenhower announced that
he was willing to run for the presidency of the United States.
His announcement was greeted with almost unanimous joy
on the part of the Republicans, and with more temperately | :
expressed sorrow on the part of the Democrats.
We feel that this decision was Mr. Eisenhower’s own to
make, and that despite enormous party pressure on him, he
made it himself. He is giving the Republican party the lead-
ership it wants, and is giving the chance to the American
people to show whether they want to continue his programs
and his administration.
More important, he has at no point concealed any of the
details of the seriousness of his physical situation, and we
are voting next November on his health report as much as on
his past political record. Many people do have serious doubts
as to whether he can live in the presidency for five more
years, and some feel that two years of Eisenhower are better
than more of anybody else. The American people, who, to
the credit of Mr. Eisenhower himself, are in the possession
of the facts, will decide.
We are also glad that it is from the so-called “liberal
wing” of the Republican party that the standard holder will
come. Though we are not unanimous in our support for Eis-
enhower, we are unanimous in our preference of Eisenhower
- to a candidate from the extreme right wing of the Republican
party. As the New York Times said, as the Republican can-
- didate we have an “internationalist and a humanitarian.”
Another. thing the editorial board of The College News
is unanimous about is our distrust of the ability of Richard
"Nixon and our opposition to him as the second member of the
Republican slate. He has at no time shown any consistent
political or ethical convictions; his earlier history of Mc-
- Carthy support, the complete lack of evidence of any change
of heart, and his dubious political ethics as shown in the ’52
campaign, disqualify him in our eyes. In addition, his constant
reference to the Democrats as -‘‘the party of traitors” rather
than seeing in them a legitimate opposition, makes him un-
acceptable as a possible president. The chance that he will
succeed to the presidency if. the Republican ticket is elected
is greater than usual, not only because of the President’s
health, but also because of his age. The President’s. strength
is that he unites both his party and the country; Nixon
unites only the opposition.

To the Editorial Board of:
‘the. College News:
A few months ago your paper
ran a ‘series of articles dealing
with the status of extra-curricular
activities at Bryn Mawr. Apathy,
unwillingness to actively partici-
pate in student organizations and
a general lack of interest, demon-
strated by the low attendance at
planned programs, were listed
among the major problems.
An instance of the latter vl
brought rather forcefully to my at-
tention at the chapel service last
Sunday evening. The student body,
for whom the chapel services exist,
was represented in the congrega-
tion by six members. Had the hon-
orarium of the speaker depended
members would have been entitled
to an $8.30 seat!
' Although ‘this is certainly the
most extreme instance this aca-
demic year, it is indicative of the
tendency of chapel attendance sec-
ond semester. Since it is the in-
tention of the Chapel Committee
to meet students interests, it is of

major concern to them to seek out
the causes for this rather consid-

Could it be that.the publicity has
been inadequate to acquaint stu,

for example, has it been made suf-
ficiently well known that every
service is: followed by a discussion
with the minister to which a dif-
ferent member of the faculty has
been invited to participate each
week ?

would be. of immense value since

Comment: Wyndham, and the
Ely Room in particular, was the
site of two fine activities of the
past weekend, Friday night many,
reminded by the plentiful fish-
adorned posters, flocked to the
Pem East-Wyndham-East House-
sponsored “Hoposcope.” Wyndham,
a gracious, rambling home, should
engender a feeling of warm hos-
pitality on any. gathering, and
thus we think it a particularly
wise location choice for this type
of affair,
i General consensus is that Sun-
days, all Sundays, whether actual-
ly gloomy or not, are depressing
days in.a student’s life. Through
rsonal experience we've found
the Bryn Mawr-Haver-
ford Chamber Music programs on
Sundays at 4:30 in the Ely Room
the most pleasantly effective meth-
od. of dispelling those “pre-week”
blues. The response to the first of
this semester’s recitals was indeed

Things Have Changed
THmEE REEDED BDH pbb pb bt
Forty years ago, radicalism had
a different outlook. The March 2,
1916, issue of The College News
reviewed the first issue of a new
magazine, Challenge, which, be-
cause of its “radicalism and its bit-
ter attacks on the present system
of education, has attracted con-
siderable notice.”
Its purpose was stated as “an
opportunity for the students to re-
public and to demonstrate that
they are indeed a thinking part of
the community ... they are not
leading the cloistered life of pro-
tected innocence.”
It suggested a course in all
women’s colleges “to prepare the
students for comprehending moth-
erhood” (very radical). it also
(radically!) stated that “the atti-
tude of the average professor to-
‘ward the student is very insult-
ing.”

advertisement of “Vivacious Fash-.

faculty Curriculum Committee at a
joint meeting on February 27.
Student complaints concerning
the organization of the conferences
fall. into. three main groupings:
subject matter dealt with, method
of presentation, and, in some in=
stances, complete lack of organiza-
tion of conferences in a field in
which. a comprehensive examina-
tion is to be offered.
The students have examined the
‘methods used. in the various de-
partments.. There is great variety
in method: lectures, questions and
answers, students’ reports, individ-
ual work. There is equal variety
in choice of material: systematic
study, discussion of major prob-
lems, presentation of totally new
material, historical approach, so-
called “filling in the gaps.”
Different departments place
varying degrees of emphasis on
both the conferences and the final
examinations. The students feel
that the variety is good, that dif-
ferent ‘fields present different prob-
lems and that the establishment of
this or that .particular method of
presentation would be an unreal-
istic attempt to reduce highly di-
verse fields to a _ rigid: pattern
detrimental to all of them.
However, the seniors have felt
that in many fields it is possible to
choose among various alternative
subject matters and presentations,
all of which may be equally valu-
able. In view of this, it was pro-
jods for the next year’s confer-
‘ing an equally important’ diversity
Student Curriculum Committee
posed that every spring, after a
discussion of the merits and fail-
ings of the current year’s proceed-
ings, the junior majors meet with
the whole faculty of their depart-
ments to discuss the different pos-
sible objectives, subjects and meth-
ences. °
At this time, the department
may. explain the rationale of its
program, propose alternative plans
among which the majors may
choose, discuss student suggestions
and make a final decision on a ba-
sis agreeable to both students and
faculty.
It was felt that this suggestion
will maintain -a vital diversity
among departments as well as add-
from year to year within the de-
partments themselves. Because the
interests of the senior majors vary
with the years, in many cases a
corresponding variety in methods
used and material covered in com-
prehensive conferences would re-
sult in a more meaningful unit of
work.
It was further suggested that a
questionnaire be compiled and dis-
tributed to this year’s seniors, to
ascertain their final feelings’ on
the subject after they have taken
the final examinations.
This meeting was attended by
President McBride, Deans Mar-
shall and Geffcken, Professors
Goodale, Wells, Linn, Schneider
and Gillman, Undergrad President
Sarah Stifler, Curriculum Commit-
tee Chairman Jane Keator, ands
representatives Ros Harrison and

Math Advocated
As A “Language”
lt has been said that mathemat-
ics is in some sense a language,
and a language which has become
vastly important in many fields. A
person must be in a very real man-
ner “literate” in mathematics be-
fore he can attempt to read most
current work in physics, chemistry
and astronomy, and a_ knowledge
of mathematics has become in-
creasingly useful and even neces-
sary in many branches of subjects
such as economics, psychology and
philosophy.
For this reason, the suggestion
has been made that, although
mathematics is not solely a lan-
guage, it might easily be more
useful to students in certain areas
of study than would a second lan-
guage, particularly if the two lan-
guages offered were from the same
language group.
Since much work is being done
in English today in many fields al-
most exclusively dominated by Eu-
ropean scholars when the two-oral
system was first introduced, and
since a great deal of technical lit-
erature has been and is being
translated into English, a knowl-
edge of two foreign languages, al-
though desirable, is no longer as
necessary as it once was for ad-
vanced work in a number of sub-
jects.
Therefore it has been suggested

In view of the fact that the Bryn
Mawr undergraduate often la-
ments the fact that she is being
“forced” to take certain of her
subjects, and that had she been
given a choice she never would
have signed up for that social sci-
ence course, it would seem fitting)
to present a resume of a report on
the Bryn Mawr curriculum which
was presented to the faculty in
1948. Perhaps with an insight into
the whys and wherefores of the
literature requirement, Philosophy
101 or what have you, the chronic
lamenter would be able to see a
method in all this madness about
her. .
The Committee on the Post-War
Curriculum made a four year
study of curricular matters at
Bryn Mawr as well as other col-
leges. After a year of joint meet-
ings with the Faculty Curriculum
Committee, during which the Bryn
Mawr curriculum was discussed in
full, the report of 1948 was drawn
up by the two committees. It com-!
mences' with a brief Statement on
the Curriculum as a whole, a cur-|
riculum which was believed to ful-
fill a two-fold purpose: to give a
broad and sound education in the
liberal arts and sciences, and to
provide adequate preparation for
advanced study or professional
training for those wishing to do
graduate work.
The two committees favored the
maintenance of 15% units of work
and stressed the value of allied
‘work. They examined the fields of
study required of all students,
keeping in mind the assumptions
that requirements are intended to
introduce each student to certain
of the fundamental areas of learn-
ing, and they are intended to in-
Curriculum Committee Head Discusses
1948 Re-evaluation of Required Courses
were made:
English Composition: The two
committees felt that this require-
ment combines training in writing”
and organization of papers with
experience in criticism and analy-
sis. The plan is continually restud-
ied in relation to the undergradu-
ate curriculum with the purpose of
improving the preparation offered
the student in the freshman course.
Philosophy: The two committees
found that the Bryn’ Mawr curric-
ulum is unusual among other col-
lege curricula in the central] place
given to a required course in. phi-
losophy: The first year course
gives ‘the ‘student an oppoftunity
to study major concepts in the his-
tory of Western thought and gives
training in analytical thinking.
Furthermore, other departments
depend ona student’s familiarity —
with the material of this, course.
Literature: Both committees
considered this requirement, . like
those in science and philosophy, es-
sential to a liberal arts curri¢ukum.
The opportunity is given the -stu-
dent. to study English literature, or
Biblical” and classical literature,
which form. the basis for it. It was
felt that the courses fulfilling this
requirement should be broad in
scope. There was appreciation for
a flexible interpretation of the
requirement providing that the
courses substituted be not too re-
stricted or specialized in content.
Science:. The Committee on the
Post-War Curriculum met with the
science departments to discuss this
requirement. The majority were
interested in elementary — science
courses of broad scope, but were
of the opinion that careful study
of one field of science was prefer-
able to more general science
courses. It was felt that the meth-
sure sufficient breadth and diversi-
fication in each )student’s, program.

ods which other colleges used to
teach science as part of general
education were used inthe intro-
“|ductory courses at Bryn Mawr.
Namely, an emphasis on the inter-
relationship of scientific fields, the
introduction of historical material,
and the frequent re-examination of
course material from the point of
view of the non-major. The dis-
cussion between the committee and
the science departments resulted
in the opinion that a distinction
between first year courses for all
students and for potential majors
seemed undesirable and impracti-
cable, that the science requirement
would be better met by a course
in one particular science than by a
general course, and that a good
first year course should be equally
suitable for the science major and
the non-science major.
Social Science: The two commit-
tees recommended that such a re-
quirement be introduced into the
Bryn Mawr curriculum. The chief
points upon which they based this
suggestion were: 1) Students of an
undergraduate program in liberal
arts and sciences should have an
introduction to some of the prob-
lems of man’s living in society and
his social institutions. 2) Statis-
ties showed that too many students
were missing systematic study in
social science and history.
Languages: The Committee on
the Post-War Curriculum met with
representatives of the language
departments and. drew up-the-fol--
lowing statement: “Languages are
important fields of knowledge in
themselves and essential to a full
understanding of the thought and
culture of other nations and socie-
ties. In the world today language
study has a very practical impor-
tance and can help American stu-
dents to see the position of their
country as one of many inter-de-
pendent nations. The study of for-
eign languages is also valuable in

giving a sense of the nature of
language in general and of the
processes of communication. The
immediate aim of the study of lan-
guage is to providg,a foundation
on which the student can build,
either in further study of lan-
guages and literature or in profes-
sional work in some other field.”
The two committees felt that
some modification in the require-
ment as it stood then was desir-
able. For the purpose of the col-
lege requirement, they believed
that: the experience gained from
some knowledge of two languages
belonging to two different linguis-
tic groups was valuable. They also

dents a greater proficiency in one

tageous and that the possibility of

that the college requirement be
met in one of two ways: 1) A
knowledge of two languages which
do not belong to the same linguis-
tic group. 2) A-knowledge of one
language to a higher level of pro-
ficiency. Present day students will
realize the extent to which the rec-
ommendation of 1948 has been
modified since ‘that. time.
$150 Movie Yield
To Benefit College
The Athletic Association voted,
at their last board meeting, to pay
off the remaining $199.99 debt on
Applebee barn to the Trustees of
the College.
The Athletic Association also
announced that 375 people attend-
ed Henry V, giving the association
a profit of $150. Therefore, in-
stead of adding it to the Associa-
tion treasury they will donate the
money to the college for the pur-
chase of a larger lens for the col-
lege movie camera.

Continued from Page 3
that a student might, with the per-
mission of her major department,
offer a one-year course in mathe-
matics, perhaps terminating with
a special examination, as a substi-
tute for gne of the two language
requirements. This would help to
lighten the ‘heavy course load car-
ried by majors in many of the sci-
ences, and especially by those do-
ing pre-medical work.
Such a plan would, to be sure,
broaden the traditional strictness
of the Bryn Mawr language re-
quirement. But whether any fur-
ther loosening of this requirement
would be detrimental, and whether
appreciably many people would
benefit from it, seem to me to be
questions answerable only by trial.

Gas Bill Typfies Relation Between
Political, Economic Power In U.S.
Common Room, February 29—
At a Current Events lecture Mr.
Bachrach discussed the natural gas
bill, “a typical illustration of the
relation between economic and po-
litical power” in the United States.
This bill, which provided for
state regulation of natural gas
rates, was passed by the Senate
on February 2. However, in the
course of the passage a Mr. Neff,
who was not a registered lobbyist,
offered Senator Case $2,500 to vote
for the bill. This offer helped
bring about a presidential veto
which has since killed the—bill;“In
his veto statement President Eisen-
hower denounced the. “arrogant
lobbyist” who had made that offer.
According to Mr. Bachrach there
are five major points in the action
surrounding ‘the bill’s passage.
First, it highlights the working
of the American party system,
where industry or the interest of
some-powerful meén, is all import-
ant. Power is centralized and the
individual politician has little free-

dom of choice in his voting if he
wants to keep his job.
Secondly, this bill ruins the
Democratic party’s claim that the
Republicans are the “give away”
party. In the collection of people
who voted for the bill were many
Democrats from the oil producing
states in the South and Southwest.
This bill was also the first major
ease of lack of cooperation be-
tween Democratic Senate Leader
Johnson and Eisenhower. Johnson,
from Texas, was one of the sup-
porters of this_bill.
The voting on this bill placed
Senator McCarthy in an awkward
position. His state, which is a
natural gas consuming state was
against the bill, while his financial
supporters, among’ them Hunt of
Texas, were for it. He finally
voted for the bill, antagonizing the
people of Wisconsin.
This was, finally, the first scan-
dal in the ruggedly individualist
oil industry of our west. Usually
the oil industry has done its work
in a more gentlemanly way, ac-
cording to Mr. Bachrach. Often it
offered money to a party rather
than an individual.
Mr. Bachrach also discussed the
background of the oil industry, re-
porting mostly from a series of
articles by Engler in the New Re-
public.

trines of 1680-1776 in relation to
the right of property.
During. this period, the status
quo received a “unanimity of ap-
proval by the articulate classes”.
The social thought of the time was
mostly conservative and in _har-
mony with the idea of private
property. This institution was de-
fended by the successors of John
Locke, and to a certain extent, by
.| Locke himself,
Locke has often been attacked
by modern scholars for his defense
of private property, and for put-
ting property rights over human
rights through statements such as
“Where there is no injury to prop-
erty, there is no injustice.”
Mr. Viner believes Locke’s posi-
tion on this matter has frequently
been misunderstood... The 17th and
18th centuries used the word
“property” in a broader sense, in-
eluding within it “life, liberty and
| te state”. Locke tended to con-
‘gider the right ‘of “property as a
‘law of nature. He accepted the
view that property existed prior
to the origin of government, An-
other school felt that ‘property
was originated ‘by government.
Private property was exalted by
Locke, but nowhere more so than
any of the other “natural laws”.
Except for freedom of conscience,
natural laws untouchable.
Locke was “an apostle of parlia-
mentary sovereignty, not of an-
archy”, and. expounded the Doc-
crine of Consent. Amidst the con-
siderable anti-tax feeling of the
time, there existed a notion that
no person could be taxed without
his. consent. “Consent” meant the
consent of Parliament, but when
taken literally, the consent of
