Freshmen to

Give Shows,

Feature Modern, Classical

This year freshman hall plays
promise to be as varied and enter-
taining as they have been in the
past, After only .a week of re-
hearsal they will be presented Fri-
day and Saturday evenings, Octo-
ber 14 and 15, at Skinner Wonk-
shop.

iPat Ranard is directing Den-
bigh’s.choice, Pyramus and Thisbe
from \Shakespeare’s A Midsummer
Night’s Dream. She plans to use
Elizabethan costumes with a. sim-
ple set and lighting, and to em-
phasize the stage business for hu-
mor and to get across the point
that the “play within the play” is
“put on by a group of clods.”

Robert .Frost’s The Masque of
Reason will be Pembroke West’s
offering, directed by Edie Bush.
She hopes it will be “a modern,
striking production which will ap-
peal to both humor and intellect!”

Passion, Poison and Petrefac-
tion or The Fatal Seltzer Bottle by
G. B. Shaw is Radmor’s ailitera-
tive play, directed by Janet Fried-
man. She says they will “concen-
trate on characterization not per-
fection in lines” and “hope to have
fun and also put on a good per-
formance. ”

Rockefeller has chosen Drei-
ser’s In the Dark as its play and
Carol Schrier as its director, “A
weird play whcih can be either a
tragedy or a comedy,” this pro-
duction features a dismembered
body and assorted ghosts and
phantoms as well.

Penny Schwin, the stage direct-
or for Graduate ‘Center and Batten
House freshmen, called The Won-
der Hat by Ben Hecht and Kenneth
Sawyer Goodman, which they have
selected, “a romantic farce.” She
says it will be an “incredible in-
novation in the history of Bryn
Mawr.” ,

The Elizabethan costumes will
lend an air of finery to Merion’s



production of The Dark Lady of

the Sonnets. “Students will dis-
cover from whence cometh Shakes-
peare’s genius,” predicted Pattie
Canode, the director.
‘ Pembroke East’s director, Pat
Dranow; said that their play, The
Boy with a Cart by Christoper Fry,
“is a modern miracle play, which
will ‘be set and costumed symbol-
ically.” It is a serious play whcih
will be done in its original vein
although the girls did adapt it.

Interfaith Presents

| Philosopher Tillich

Mr.
Theology at Harvard University,
will open Interfaith’s once-a-month
series of lectures on Friday, Octo-

ber 21, at 8 p. m. in Goodhart Aud-|

itorium. One of the world’s most
eminent Protestant theologians,
Mr. Tillich will lecture on The
Religious Encounter Of East And
West.

Born
parentage, Mr. Tillich came to the
United States in 1938. Because of
his opposition to the Nazi regime,
he was dismissed in that year from
his post as Professor of Philosophy
at the university in Frankfurt am
Main.

Upon his arrival in this country,
Mr. Tillich was immediately given
a post at Union Theological Sem-
inary. In 1954 he was invited to
teach at Harvard Divinity School.

Mr. Tillich studied theology at
the. Universities of Berlin, Tuebin-
gen and Halle and in 1912 received
his Ph. D. from the University of
Breslau. He holds honorary degrees
from the Universities of Halle,
Yale, Glasgow, Princeton, Har-
vard/ and The New School.

In 1953 Mr. Tillich was invited
to deliver the Gifford lectures on

Stockholm Meeting Indicates

East-West Tea

This summer, an international
Historical Conference, which is
held every (five years, met at
Stockhelm. ‘Mr. Gilbert, Mr. Dud-
den, (Mr. Broughton and Mrs. Man-
ning attended from Bryn Mawr.

Mr. (Gilbert, in describing the
conference, explained that it lasts
one week, and that for a week
previous to this, single committees
confer_on special problems. Mr.
Dudden participated in one of these
committees which dealt: with Eco-
nomic History.

At the main conference, morn-
ing sessions were devoted to the
reading and discussion of printed
reports. In the afternoon, short
papers (communications) relating
to the topic of the morning report
were read, Mr. Gilbert had a re-
port on “Cultural History and its
Problems” in the section on Meth-
odology of History, and Mrs.\Man-
“ning had a paper, “Movements of,
Nationalism in ‘Canada and Ire-
land” in that on the British Em-
pire.

A large number of people from
different countries attended the
conference, including some _repre-
sentatives of the Far East whose

ching Methods

East and West came out very
strongly. In their written papers,
the Easterners followed an or-
thodox Marxist line, and in dis-
cussions they read prepared pa-
pers. In certain meetings, partic-
ularly in those of a general char-
acter, such as that of Methodology
of _ History, there were strong
clashes,
(Mr. Gilbert, giving an evalua-
tion of the conference, noted that
the reports and communications
are valuable from the point of
view of presenting a survey of the
present state of research on the
subjects with which they are con-
cerned. Six volumes of reports
will be published from the confer-
ence, ‘

hand, with a few exceptions, was

like that which put the Marshall
Plan into effect,” asserted Mr. Rog-
er Wells, speaking on “Americans
in Foreign Policy in the Coming El-
ection” in the Common Room on
Monday evening, October 10. “We
don’t have much choice but to nego-
tiate,” he said, but this will come
after the elections. Right now,
we are “tied to a fixed election
schedule” which leaves little room
for major foreign policy consider-
ations of far-reaching magnitude.
For instance, ‘Ambassador Lodge’s
recent suggestion of appointing
Ralph Bunche as ambassador to
the Soviet Union, as magnificent
and far-sighted as it may seem at
first glance is, Mr. Wells feels,
purely a “campaign suggestion.”
Discussing our present foreign
policy, he said that our approach
of “What’s—good- forthe United
States is good for the world” would
be more diplomatic if stated and
followed as “What’s good for the
world is good for the United
States.” Concerning the appro-
priation of money, through the
‘U.N. for O.A.S. (Organization of
American \States), for instance,
the United States.-“dragged her

ing to put money into this and
other projects, “it’s a little late.”

On the subject of Cuba, he said,
“We have provided Khrushchev
with a trump card which we may
be sure he will play to the fullest
during the negotiations in Berlin.
We’ve won a great victory in the
U.N. recently by not allowing the

to be discussed, but Khrushchev’s
won Cuba! For the trouble in Cuba
both parties are equally to blame,”
he continued, “Cuba has for a
long time had a one-crop economic
system, and the United. States has
done just the opposite of encour-
aging diversification, guaranteeing
her a large portion of our sugar
imports. Here there was more
perspective, more imagination
needed.”
Four Factors To Consider

In considering the problem of
underdeveloped countries, we must
take four factors into account:
technological change and its ef-
fects, the revolution of rising ex-
pectations-on the part of the peo-
ple of these countries, population
explosion, and the explosive force
of nationalism which has brought
forth such leaders as Castro and
Lumumba. Many Americans feel
that non-military foreign aid is
“money down the rat-hole,” and
that these countries often become
antagonistic rather than friendly
because of our help. “But,” inter-
jected (Mr. Wells, “were we grate-
ful to the British for the help they
gave us?”

Loan Rather Than Gift

(Money invested in the “food for
peace” programs in underdevelop-
ed countries constitutes a “loan”
rather than an outright gift. The
food is sold for foreign currency,
given as “disaster relief,” or bar-



modities. The money is then re-

words. To the overwhelming stu-

(“plus a few Penn boys whose
Kennedy posters were instantly
destroyed”) Nixon commented that
he hadn’t seen such a mob scene
since Caracas, Venezuela but he
was happy that “at least this was
a friendly mob.” He went on to
say that he was very encouraged
to see so many young people in-
terested in politics and he hoped
they maintained their interest
throughout their lives. He did add
that he hoped they would all be-

jcome Republicans but that. interest

was the important thing. He mana-
ged to shake a few Bryn Mawr
hands in the onslaught and some
lucky ones even received carnations
that Mrs. Nixon was passing out.

The Young Republicans, who are
also part of the College Youth for
Nixon-Lodge, plan to work pri-
marily through. the Montgomery
County Young Republicans. They
went to the headquarters yesterday
to see how they could help. Also
some girls have gone into the
Nixon-Lodge headquarters in Phil-
adelphia where Nan said that they
really need young people to work
for them. “Most of their volunteer
help are older women who have
free’ time and they have found
that young people can often be
more. effective.” Nan, who has
delegates in every hall to distribute
literature, buttons and_ stickers,
noted that Mr. Wells’ Political
Parties Course was also encourag-
ing students to work actively for
the candidate of their choice.

The Young Democrats are hope-
fully working with the Haverford

or Kennedy to the Haverford field

On Evading The Issue

Being good (though not men) and agreeing that now
definitely is the time, and, even taking great stock inthe
wisdom of time-worn adages, The News is, nonetheless, not
rushing to the aid of what collectively it, therefore, has not
got, that is a party. This notable restraint is less the result
of the absence of commitment to a candidate than the pres-
ence of a stronger commitment to both the news and the
News, (the former because of a professional sentiment for
unbiased reporting, the second because of unwillingness to
alienate half our readers so early in the season). There-
fore, despite the strong predilections of several of the editors
for Kennedy and the unswerving devotion of various others
for his adversary, the News will take no editorial stand. re-

garding either of the candidates in the coming election.

A New Kind of Re-armament

A Communist student who is ambitious for the success



his intellectualism and idealism meet no conflict in accepting
and disseminating the doctrines of his party. He can with
conviction bring to discussions on history, philosophy, art
or world affairs the ideas which are most favorable to the
aggrandizement of the Russian state. Armed thusly with an
undeviating ideology, he is a powerful weapon—possibly the
most powerful weapon of the Soviet government.

His influence is felt throughout the world. Certainly it
is felt by American students. Kremlin-engineered attitudes
toward general areas of foreign affairs. and specific United
States policy have frequently resulted froma skillfully plan-
ued but apparently effortlessly manoeuvered flow of ideas.

Tronically there is little we can or want to do to barri-
cade ourselves against this flow. As Americans we abhor
the notion of stifling discussion; as students we hardly want
to ward off ideas. It seems then, that if we are to preserve
American democracy, some form of positive retaliation
against this weapon, designed, in the words of Lenin, to make
the United States “fall like an over-ripe fruit into (Soviet)
hands” must be our immediate concern. | ;

Here the American student faces considerably more dif-
ficulty than ‘his hypothetical Soviet counterpart. Too con-
scious of flaws in the American scene for belief in the abso-
lute merit of democracy, too internationally sympathetic for
fiag-waving, too broad-minded for witch-hunting conserva-
tism, he is, despite his patriotic instincts and intentions,
caught without an active creed which he can believe in, ex-
ology. .

Late in September the mail brought to 6,250,000 homes
in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut a handbook con-
taining what might very well be the solution to this dilemma.
Titled Ideology and Co-existence, the booklet expounds the
philosophy of a movement called Moral Re-armament, which
has for many years been spreading its word in 25 languages
throughout five continents. The purpose of the movement is

Communism by arming individuals with

pete with the Soviet doctrine of inevitable class struggle; it
—honesty, purity, unselfishness and love. :

As a weapon against Communism this hard-sell of mor-
al values is double-edged.’ Not only does it offer a positive
creed to compete with Red ideology in uncommitted and
wavering nations; it also, if given enough momentum, might
serve to jar this nation out of its moral lethargy in areas
such as racial discrimination, foreign aid, and labor manage-
ment conflict where bigotry and self interest are not only

The 40th Cousin



Reviewer Enjous

by Isa Brannon

Advance reviews of The 49th
Cousin, a pre-Broadway play which
opened at the Locust Street Thea-
tre in Philadelphia this Monday
night, have described the show va-
riously as “heart-warming,” “old-
fashioned,” and “refreshing.” All
this made me rather dubious about
attending the production. Now
that I have seen it I can under-
stand the plight of other review-
ers. J thoroughly enjoyed myself,
but explaining my feelings in con-
crete terms is somewhat difficult.



Letter to the Editor
Student Questions

Challenge College

To the Editor: _

As we come back to Bryn Mawr
from literally the ends of the
earth, some questions come to mind
which are not accompanied by ans-
wers. Perhaps you may be able
to answer them.

In our lives and travels this sum-

mer, when most of us were faced
with disturbing awareness of prob-
lems affecting other people’s lives
and perhaps even our own, did any
of us find it hard to forget these
matters? Or have we returned
resigned to the conviction that
nowadays there is very little of
significance that we can do to help
out, no matter how much we might
ike to?
“How many of us are haunted by
a sense—however vague—of Re-
sponsibility for much of what hap-
pens to the world as we mature
and look on, or look away? And
is there anywhere the feeling that
maybe if this growing sense of
concern and responsibility were
encouraged and channeled, then
maybe, just maybe we could be
prepared to do a little something
when we go out into the world
for good?

Could it be that there are faculty
members who really believe that
part of their responsibility as



Opens in Cty;
Risible Acting

The story is about a German-
Jewish family around the turn of
the century. The father is played
by Menasha Skulnik, This was
my first-encounter with this de-
lightful actor. He made the whole
performance come alive each time

he appeared.

Father Henpecks

A strict father, he has kept his
three daughters from marriage,
and their situation has worsened
by his retirement from business.
In addition, as his school-teacher
daughter puts it, “Ever since Pa
came home, God has moved: into
the spare bedroom.” God is Mr.
Lowe’s best friend, and they are
constantly having rather heated
one-sided discussions:

Three Themes Appear

There are three central themes
in the play: (Mr. Lowe’s ambition
to be again president of the Re-
form Temple which he founded,
Tracy’s wish to be assistant prin-
cipal of her school, and the young-
est daughter Carrie’s desire to
marry a Russian. According to
Mr. Lowe a Russian Jew is only
better than a Hungarian Jew. Mat-
ters become worse when Tracy de-
cides to marry the principal of
her school. He imsists that he is
acceptable because he is an athe-
ist. The objection—he is a Christ-
ian atheist,

One other role deserves mention
here—that of the oldest daughter.
Martha Scott plays the part. It
is long, and not particularly color-
ful. (Miss Scott does a very good
job of sustaining “it: Saaremaa

Pathos and Accent

Describing the comedy further
would involve repeating’ lines out
of context—lines full of amuse-
ment, pathos, and a delightful
Yiddish accent. It cannot be done.

The play can be recommended
for entertainment, but one cannot
avaid saying that it does have a
limited appeal, because of its eth-
nic character. Nonetheless, it does
provide an enjoyable vening, for
humor is, after all, universal!

a foreign student, and, in turn, a
job will be found abroad. Jobs are
actually “traineeships;” the stud-

transfered from department to de-
partment so that she may see all
its aspects. Salaries equal the
“living wages” of the country; the

;student must supply the costs. of

transportation and_ side _ trips.

AIESEC charters a round-trip
flight at reduced rates. Trainee-
ships last for six wéeks to three

Solid South Loosens Tradition;

by Isa Brannon

“It is a heady ‘experience for
the Southerner to be wooed by
either major political party; the

by a prominent textile manufac-
turer at a rally in Spartanburg,

ry (Goldwater as its major speaker.

There is a political revolution
going on in-the South today. A
great many people feel that the
Democratic party has desertéd
that region, This is not so much
because of its choice of a Catholic
candidate, but because of its plat-

. form. The party is for a strong-

er federal government than South-
erners have stood for; it wants to
remove the authority behind the
right-to-work ‘laws in an area of
the country which is not strongly
unionized, but which has a grow-
ing industry. The civil rights plat-
form is not the area of contention
that.it might be, because Southern-
ers have become accustomed to the
fact that. most of the country con-
siders segregation morally wrong.
However, the South does not want
much direct government interven-
tion in education.

In view of these considerations,
many thinking ‘Southerners are
looking for other party affiliations.
‘One has been found in the Dixie-
crats, a third party which put
Strom Thurmond, a South Carolin-
ian, in the Senate. However, the
existence of third parties has prov-
en a difficulty in most countries,
and Southerners would rather not
follow this course,

Republicanism Welcomed

‘An allegiance to the Republican
party would do two important
things: restore the South to the
consideration of the ‘Democratic
party, and make a strong two-
party system in which each side
would be forced to contribute its
best men. It is this latter consid-
eration which makes many Demo-
crats of political stature welcome
Republicans, if not endorse them.

Support for Kennedy

There has been a lot of political
equivocation. in the South in the
last few months, and it is difficult
to see how deeply these ideas have
penetrated. (‘Southern newspapers
are behind Kennedy, almost to the
point of excluding Nixon’s name.
I noticed two important papers in
Florida which appeared to back
the Vice-President, but Florida is
not really representative of the
Solid South. is .means that
among the general populace there
is still political unawareness, Sen-
ator Kennedy made a statement in
New York that he did not need
the South. The Democratic party
does not need the South. How-
ever, the fact remains that it con-
trols 128 electoral votes, People in
the South seemed unaware of the
Semator’s remark, and he was re-
ceived with enthusiasm in North

_ Carolina. ‘All he needed to do to

bring the errants back to the fold
was to remind them.of the Demo-
cratic party which their great-
grandfathers had supported and
shout a few MDR campaign slo-
gans. It is difficult to break polit-
ical traditions.

Two of the great party leaders
in the South, James Byrnes and
Harry Byrd, have refused support
to Kennedy. The Byrnes’ repudi-
ation hardly .surprised anyone as
he -has openly supported Eisen-
hower. The only bothersome fig-
ures in South Carolina are the

{any responsibility to Senator Ken-
nedy.

A survey of car bumpers has
shown Nixon ahead in North Car-
olina. This has ‘been one sign of
jubilation for the Republicans. It
shouldn’t be used to indicate any-
thing but a bond between people
who are fighting for a new cause.
I do not believe that Nixon will
carry the states of the Southeast.
However, to Southerners this is

not the important factor. The im-

portant things are to get a two-
party system-working on the local
level, to have Republican candi-
dates once in a while, to avoid hav-
ing primaries more important
than elections. A national] election
starts the movement with a splash.
I only hope that in the face of a
probable draw or defeat ‘people
will not lose hope. The two-party
system should be preserved.



Goodhart’s New Gown

Having endured thirty-two’
years of plain existence, one fire,
and countless trying sessions
with production - minded stud-
ents, the Goodhart stage cur-
tain—worn thin through expos-
ure—has at last been replaced.

Throygh the beneficence of
Phyllis Goodhart Gordan, a
member of the Board of Direct-
ors, and of the classes of ’57

Rosenthal, Goodhart’s new tunic
was dyed to match the color of
its seats. Its actual shape and
lack of embellishment (the sec-

blend with and enhance Good-

A major point in‘Mr. Nixon’s campaign speech-

is tenuous.

governmental framework, at the apex of which is
the President. The business of government is gen-
erally carried out within the context of the parties,
according to their views of the national purpose and
the. best means of achieving it. The policies of a
party, especially as expressed in the platform, indi-
cate the policies of the man the party runs.

Leadership Potential

The ability of the two parties to produce strong
national leaders, amd respond to national problems,
deserves careful evaluation. There are major differ-
ences between the Republican and Democratic par-
ties, especially in the area of national leadership.

In many instances the iG.O.P. has failed to re-

African student
Chooses BM ¢

by Berna Landsman

This year for the first time Bryn
Mawr’s foreign scholarship pro-
gram has brought to the college
a student from Kenya. Wamere
Mwangi, a member of the Kikuyu
Tribe, the largest single tribe in
Kenya, East Africa, has come as
a transfer student to the sopho-
more class,

One of the 172 ‘African students
welcomed by a group from the
African4American Students’ Foun-
dation on arrival in New York in
September, Wamere came on the
airlift financed by the Kennedy
Foundation.

How Wamere happened to come
to Bryn Mawr is an interesting
story, which she tells,by the way,
in beautiful English. “The idea of
going abroad to study first occur-
red tome in 1956, when I was in
the 11th grade,” she began. At that

time she was attending the African| _

Girls’ High School of Kikuyu, and,
having. reached. the. 11th grade,
had passed both the primary and
‘intermediate examinations given
at the 4th and 8th grade levels
respectively. Since all pre-college
education is not compulsory, but is
government-spdnsored and priv-
ately paid for, this was quite an
achievement, for the students that
the few schools can accommodate
ought not to be eliminated in the
examinations. (Many more stu-
dents go to primary school, there-
fore, than actually finish, due not

struction program was repudiated by the Repub-
licans. Just this year, Nelson Rockefeller was
frozen out of a chance for the Presidential nomin-
ation, because he was too liberal for the Republicans.

The Republican Party has consistently desired
protection of the status quo, a goal which is inap-
propriate in times of such fundamental change as
is characteristic of the period we are now going
through. One need only look at the records of
Grant, Hayes, Harrison, Arthur, McKinley, Taft,
Harding, Coolidge, Hoover, and Eisenhower to see
how well the Republicans have fulfilled their desires;
history demonstrates all too clearly the unfortunate
results. The depression was caused by Hoover’s
short-sighted policies; Roosevelt’s clear vision of
the problems confronting our capitalist economy
made possible the finding and implementation of
measures which substantially minimize the risk of
another such economic breakdown.

: Action and Imagination

The Democratic Party has shewn that it is a
party of action and imagination. Wilson responded
to the problems of a new industrial society with his
“New Freedom.” I have mentioned the response
of Roosevelt’s New Deal to the socio-economic prob-
lems of the Great Depression, Truman responded
to the challenging problems of internationalism with
a sound program of economic and technical assist-
ance to the war-torn and under-developed nations;
he also fostered the establishment of the defense
alliance system now protecting the non-Communist
world. e oa Ths esl on .
These are some of the vital differences between
the parties. Perhaps when Mr. Nixon urges us to
disregard party labels, he is hoping we will forget
the complacency -that has characterized his party
for nearly a century. But we must all remain aware

The party system is a fundamental part of our

by Nan Jamieson

Chairman of College Youth for Nixon-Lodge

Richard M. Nixon, because of his prominent
position in the administration, -must necessarily
stand in part on the Eisenhower record. A Nixon
administration would not be merely a continuation
of the Eisenhower administration. - However, it
would be built on this foundation which Nixon him--
self has helped to construct in the past 7% years.

In the field of domestic problems much prog-
ress has been made under Republican leadership.
The Department of Health, Education, and Welfare
was established, giving human problems a more sig-
nificant position in the affairs of government and
organizing for greater efficiency government efforts
in these fields. In the important field of civil rights,
the Republicans sponsored the first Civil Rights Act
in 82 years and in 1960 supported amendments to
extend and protect voting rights. Those who feel
that the current administration has been unconcern-
ed with the problems of the “average man” and
the problems of old age should realize that Social
Security has been extended to 12 million additional
persons and benefits increased. In the economic
field, both a recession and inflationary tendencies
have been checked before they could have a disas-
trous effect on the national economy.

Foreign Relations Strengthened

At this time foreign relations are more impor-
tant than they have been at almost any previous
period in our history, The Eisenhower administra-
tion worked hard to stremgthen Free World Alli-
ances. This has been done through conferences
with world leaders. Some of these conferences took
place in the United States and others during the
world tours made by both the President and Vice-
President, Negotiations on the nuclear test ban
and disarmament have been pressed forward. The
American position has also been strengthened by
the increase in foreign trade (now at its highest
level)’ and. by the shift of emphasis in the mutual
security program from a grant to a loan basis.
This last item is significant because the loan pro-
gram is less damaging to the — pride of our
allies.

These, briefly, are some of the achievements
of the present Republican administration, However,
what is even more important is what Richard Nixon
and Henry Cabot Lodge will do for the future of
our country. and the free world.

Albatross Will Take Flight
Carrying Letter Exchanges

A group of Swarthmore students
has come up with a revolutionary
idea in. student publications. The
student staff, headed by Blake
Smith of Princeton, New Jersey,
plans to publish.a monthly journal,
the Albatross, which will include
students’ and professors’ letters to
public officials and the answers to
these queries and complaints,

They hope to draw letters from
varied and distant campuses and
to find national circulation. It is
their contention that if a “man of
influence” knew that his letter
would be published in such a mag-
azine, he would be more likely to
answer and to answer “boldly and
well.” Hoping both to make the
adult world realize the potential
power of student opinion and to
make students aware of the prob-
lems of today’s world, Smith claims
the Albatross will establish “a
bridge of opinion between two au-
diences.”

Students who wish to contribute
to the journal are urged to send
letters to politicians about any
problem of wide interest: those of
ROTC, integration, and censorship
aré examples. In this letter the
recipient should be informed. that
his answer may be published in
the Albatross, a journal read by
several thousand college students
and professors. A carbon of the
letter should go to Blake Smith at

Mr. Wells praised the vast ex-
change program which brings for-
eign students in large numbers to
the U.S. Since the youth are to
determine our foreign policy in
the future, exchange programs, he
feels, can serve a very useful pur-
pose in mutual understanding.

“Our policy in past years. has
been—‘provocative,’ witness the no-
tion on ‘unleasing Chiang’ and the
U-2 incident. ;We need to keep in
mind one of Theodore Roosevelt’s
favorite sayings, “Speak softly
but carry a big stick.’ We have no
choice but to negotiate with the
Russians,” he said, “but there must
be no give-aways.” In conclusion,
Mr. ‘Wells said that our generation
is.doing more thinking about the
problems of foreign-policy than
ever before. “Is there a chance
that we can solve these problems?
Yes, there is,” he concluded. “Now
go to it!”

by the idea that we students and
our teachers are involved with each
other in a communion—in a com-
munity—in communication? iAre
we together to co-exist behind our
mutual symbols, or dare we step
out from behind these supposedly
secure symbols to discard the fa-
cade of separation and role play-
ing? —

How many of us recognize the
rare opportunity we have for per-
sonalized education—for conver-
sation—for imspiration—for real
learning? ids there a punpose in
all this education which goes hbe-
yond quizzes and papers and fran-
tic marks-consciousness? Do we
concern ourselves with understand-
ing and seeing relationships as well
as absorbing facts?

The risks of friendship, of: con-
cern, of commitment to a cause
whose success is uncertain, of
uniting intellect with dedication,
of faith in the face of failure—

are these ‘risks too much for us?
Will fear and false security turn _
our attentions from redlity, with
its certainty of uncertainty, to a
pseudo-reality built chiefly on im-
mediate ano tangible security. and

accepted her on the basis of her
high school record only, plus Wa-
mere’s description of her college

“When I heard about the Ken-

the necessary arrangements, and
all was settled,” she concluded.

At Bryn Mawr Wamere hopes
to major in history, and some day
to teach at her former college
where there are now no African

what you would call ‘education

_ great need for educated people to

Much better informed about her
country’s government and current

Betsy Levering began her re-

present crisis in the Labor Party
in Britain in relation to Fabian
Society Theory, With further
study, she narrowed her subject

in the Labor Party which have
divided and redivided to form the

it was not without excitement. She

Mr. Pritchard, who is on the fac-

this year’s Asian program, ex-
plained that the purpose of the
program is to strengthen the cur-
riculum of the three colleges in

the area of Eastern and Southern
Asian studies, primarily through
increasing the knowledge of mem-
bers of the present faculties. A
considerable amount of the Ford
Foundation Grant money will be
used for library books.

A faculty seminar is. being held
this year om China, It cuts across
department lines entirely, dealing
with all aspects of the life of the
country. Members of the faculty
come from the following. fields:
philosophy, religion, art, sociology,
history, economics, and political
science. Next year’s seminar,
also taught by am outside special-
ist, will be on India.

‘Mr, Pritchard, who is also giv-
ing an undergraduate course on
Chinese Civilization, is Associate
Professor of (Far Eastern History
at the University of Chicago. He
has been teaching in this field
since 1933 at various colleges. His
special research field ‘is that of
relations between China and the
West, from approximately 1615-

Why college men
choose careers
with Du Pont

Every year, several hundred new college graduates choose

DuPont. Many Masters and Ph.D.’s do, too.

From time to time we learn from recent graduates the
factors which led to their decision to join this company. They
cite more than half a dozen reasons. Here are four of the most

important;

OPPORTUNITY AND RECOGNITION

They were aware that college-trained beginners
go right to work with men who have achieved.

For example, research chemists work with individuals. who’ve
done successful research. New engineers work with pros, some of
whom have designed new plants, or devised new manufacturing
methods, or distinguished themselves in some other way. And other
graduates, with B.A. or M.B.A. degrees, go to work with leaders
who’ve been successful in Sales or Advertising or Treasurer’s, or

another of Du Pont’s many departments.

They had been told—and rightly—that Du Pont rewards indi-
vidual achievement. And they were eager to start achieving.

RESEARCH CREATES NEW PRODUCTS;
NEW PRODUCTS CREATE NEW JOBS. -

Men like working for a company that believes in
research, enough to invest in it...$90 million a year!

The fact is that important new products come from Du Pont
laboratories and go to Du Pont manufacturing plants with frequency.

Here are but a few since World War II: “Orlon”* acrylic fiber
followed nylon (soon after the war). Then came “Dacron”* poly-
ester fiber, “Mylar”* polyester film, “Lucite”* acrylic lacquer and
“Delrin” * acetal resin.

These, and many others, have created thousands of new jobs...in
research, manufacturing, sales. ~~ in fact, in a// Du Pont departments. ~~

DU PONT BACKS EMPLOYEES WITH HUGE INVESTMENT
New graduates feel that every facility is provided for doing the job well.
Last year, Du Pont’s operating. investment per employee was

$32,500. Since much of this was expended to provide

modern and best of equipment to work with, it further increases

tthe ‘chance for individual achievement.
This applies to men in lab, plant and office.

DUPONT PROVIDES STEADY EMPLOYMENT

Career seekers appreciate the importance of security.

Today, the average annual turnover rate at DuPont is less

than one-third that of industry nationally.

~_. These, and many other reasons, draw new talent to Du Pont each year.

Prospective graduates, M.S.’s and Ph.D.’s interested in learning
more about job opportunities at Du Pont are urged to see their Place-
_.._ ment Counselor, or to write direct to E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co.

(Inc.). They should tell us the course they are majoring in so-we can-~

send literature that is most appropriate.

Mawr girls to help maintain the
office on certain afternoons during

crats will go in to participate in
a training session on canvassing

come to come. The group also
plans to distribute literature on
campus, investigate the possbili-
ties of doing volunteer work for

the Democratic office in Ardmore
and participating in the activities
under Alliance.

Sue Frieman started an inde-
pendent “Students for Kennedy”
organi zation, They claim a mem-
bership of about 40 or 50 and their
planned activities include staffing
