Begins Flexner
“Church music is denomination-
al. It stands for dogma and doc-
trine,” said Mr. Paul Henry Lang
in the first of the 19th series of
Flexner lectures, Monday night in
Goodhart Auditorium. Miss Mc-
Bride, im her introduction, remind-
ed the audience that the last Flex-
ner series on music ‘was given by
the late Ralph, Vaughn Williams.
Other notables who have contrib-
uted to the series are James
Breasted and Alfred North White-
head.
Mr. Lang began in his lecture
entitled “Culture and Cult—Cult
and Music” by saying that he wish-
ed to talk, not as a musician, but
as an historian. He lamented the
' state of modern music which, he
says, is being taken over by the
mathematicians. (More specifical-
ly, in the case of church music, the
Catholic church in trying to retain
its old traditions has forgotten one
of its most sacred legacies, that of
music. By the same token, in the
Protestant religions, melodies dat-
ing from the Reformation are rare-
ly found, In their place we have
“Victorian ditties”. This is because
music can possess conceptual
meaning by association only. “The
principal cause of the deteriora-
tion of music is. the: deterioration

prevalence of this feeling is due
to the fact that music calls for a
specialized approach. Many peod-
ple feel that since “music might be
called a physiological, nervous re-
action,” and since it is known-that
even animals can respond to music,
you can “relax. and listen your
way to musical knowledge.” In-
tellect is not brought to bear on
the subject.
Therefore the implications be-

Lang Discusses
Music Criticism
On Wednesday, February 10,
Paul Henry Lang discussed applied
musical aesthetics in the first of
his six lectures to the Seminar in
Criticism.
The knowledge or understand-
ing of art, Mr. Lang began, de-
pends on. a rational analysis of
which composers are often incap-
able. This knowledge, then, is the
concern: of the critic. The critic
of music must ask himself three
questions:

tentions, and what his means of|

Unamuno’s Prose,
Verse, Philosophy
Probed By Panel
Since Unamuno, the great Span-
ish literary giant, could not ex-
press his philosophy in the sys-
tematic form of the nineteenth cen-
tury, and was extremely gifted
verbally as well as a philosopher
of language,” he created in a di-
versity of forms a oneness of
thought. He was the most out-
standing member of the “genera-
ion of ’98”, a modern Spanish Ren-
aissance which aimed to fill Spain
with a new spirit.

Freshmen Spread Happiness
A panel discussion of this liter- |
ary philosopher was sponsored by
the Spanish and Philosophy clubs
in the Common Room, Tuesday,
February 16, with Mr. Ferrater-
Mora, Professor of Philosophy,
Mrs. Willard King, Lecturer in
Spanish, and Mr. Claudio Guillen,,

rejects all familiar definitions of
man as a creature of God, for ex-

fact of nature. In the struggles
within each man, between mind and
heart, reason and faith, neither
ever gains the victory, neither ever
rests in peace, for Umamuno denies
the conciliatory type of thinking.

College. elections this year will be somewhat
simpler due to the completed reorganization plan.
—Undergraduates-are-now-ipso-facto- members-only
of. the Undergraduate Association and the Self-Gov-
ernment .Association. Therefore the major officers
of these two organization only are college elected.
* Arts Council and the smaller four of the erstwhile
“Big Six” organizations are now incorporated into
the: Undergraduate Association, and although ipso
facto membership in these no longer exists, voting
for their presidents is open to any person with even
a passing interest in them.
Slates for the various college-elected officers
will be drawn up as usual by straw-balloting. Slates
for the other five presidencies will come from sug-
gestions from’ the sophomore and junior classes,
narrowed down in the board meetings of the respec-
ive onganizations. The candidates will be having
dinner in the various halls during the week before
elections. These dinners are planned to give every-
one: a chance to get to know the candidates and
to vote more intelligently, This is an opportunity
not to be neglected!
The college-elected officers and hall presidents
will'all be selected within the first week of elections.
The ballot boxes will be in the halls as usual. Vot-
ing. for the other five presidents will be in Goodhart
on the second Tuesday, from 9:00 a.m, to 2:00 p.m.
The ballot boxes will be in separate rooms, along
the corridor leading to the: Common Rogm. The
voting is open for five hours to give every student
time to vote, and you are enthusiastically welcome
to do so. Preferential order on all ballots is nec-
essary in case of ties, and no ballot is valid which
does not include the full slate of candidates.
The number of election meetings per class has
been reduced by the reorganization plan. Certain
officers elected last year by the classes, will be elect-

Did it ever occur to the fresh-

thing originality is? =

;Teally, One seeks originality with-
in the limits of six or seven estab-
lished—traditions, elements which
the audience expects to find in a
Class Show, and which distinguish
it from a real show. To offer the
audience something truly original
is, essentially, to disappoint its ex-
pectations; and thus originality is
a great gamble which is bound to
be rewarded with correspondingly
great failure or success, By now,
it is evident that The Happiness
Germ was triumphantly success-
ure the class of ’63 would have ev-
ery reason to be proud of their
show, and of their own courage in
producing it.
Traditional features of a class
show are catchy tunes, particular-
ly a drinking song; a full-blown
kick chorus; and a few good comic
character parts. One also awaits,
though not with enthusiasm, some
topical jokes,’ a feeble attempt at
love interest (usually involving
the ubiquitous Bryn Mawr Girl),
and an air of cynical sophistication.
From the start it was obvious
that The Happiness Germ would
have none of this. Even its post-
ers with their cheerful flower de-
signs promised something out of
the ordinary. The same happy
feeling was echoed in the set for
the first scene, the most beautiful
one I’ve seen in a class show. The
overture, too, was no tinny: piano
pot-pourri of tunes, but a genuine
orchestral introduction. And then
the heroine (if there was a heroine)
turned out to be a child, while the
thero” was “ten times older than
you, m’ love”.
That, The Happiness Germ was
so contagious was due chiefly to
its. direction. Mary Johnson’s
delicate touch could be sensed in|
all sorts: of wonderful details—the
varicolored butterfly nets of the
scientists, the individuality achiev-

characters (each scientist, each

the balance between neutrality and’
out-and-out scene-stealing in the
minor characters—in~ short, it
‘was the grace and polish of the
production which kept The Happi- == =

bore and turned it into a fantasy
so light and airy it almost defies
criticism.
The music of Sarah Shapley and
Shirley Daniel was unusual and
very effective—especially when it
formed a background to the action,
as in the dance of the schoolchil-
dren pursuing humming butterflies.
There were funny mock-classical
touches, such as the scientists’ ela-
borate “x, x, x, x, x” and the fugue
of cocktail laughs, though this was
too short to make its point. The
songs were unusually well-adapted
to the persons singing them—thus,
the children sang a sing-song tune,

More Words On Election:
‘ With yesterday’s straw ballot for the presidential candi-
dates of Self-Gov and Undergrad we have once again entered
the period of campus elections and, as is always true at these
times (despite the fact that they recur annually with unfail-
ing regularity), a few editorial words seem appropriate.
College elections, by their emphasis on the organization-
al aspects of campus life, are often thought to bridge a gap
between the “real” world of politics and social problems and
he ivory-tower existence of the university. The fact that
this feeling exists is indicative of a misconception com-
mon to American college students, and responsible for the
attitude which observers of the academic scene have cap-
itously termed ‘apathy’ as well as the equally ‘severe self-
criticism of the reflective student considering his role as a
member of the “real” world.
Because the American student is not conditioned by his
community experience to react violently to distasteful polit-
ical situations, he often considers himself politically imma-
ture or passive beside his riot-oriented Latin American or
East-European counterparts. His self-condemnation is gener-
ally reaffirmed by his elders, though they themselves would
hardly condone riot as a means of political action and are
“probably somewhat uncertain as to jist how youth should
direct its political energies. Attempts at making the student
part of the “real” world are made continuously. Most not-
able among the ‘recent projects of this type is Yale’s Chal-
lenge program, in which important speakers confront the
student body with vital contemporary issues, but examples
on a smaller scale are numerous.
- Though these student movements are indubitably desir-
able,-they are often motivated by a basic error, the recog-
nition of which might lead to a solution far more satisfactory
than any to be effected by elaborate programs to Challenge,
inspire, or excite. The error is simply the unquestioned
assumption of the premise, that there is a difference in
the degree of the “reality” of the life of the college and that
of the outside world. .
The business of studying is, however, very much a part
of this “real” world and the student engaged in creatively
working out an abstract problem is-contributing as actively
to community life.as one collecting signatures for a petition
on Civil Rights. Recognition of this fundamental concept
should more satisfactorily produce an attitude leading to
desirable action than any Challenge by illustrious speakers
to exchange scholarly texts for the New. York Times or foot-
ball rallies for their political equivalents. The difficulty of
the second is its,implication that the two sets of activities
exclude one another; the beauty of the first is its recognition
that scholarly preoccupation is not only compatible with
responsible citizenship, but complementary to it.
The student by being a student and devoting his time to
studies is no less a patriot than the steel worker who spends
his work hours forging the national muscle or the senator
codifying its temperament. Recognition and acceptance of
this attitude implies recognition and acceptance of its ‘nec-
essary consequence, that while the student’s work is no less
“real” than anybody else’s neither is his civic responsibility.
All of which brings us back to the perhaps seemingly
irrelevant observation that we are once again beginning
campus elections. Recognition ef the suggested attitude is
recognition of the fact that as members of the “real” world | of
we are also members of a college community and, having
dispelled the myth of the ivory tower, our activity in this
capacity becomes in no way less real than activity in our
capacity as citizens of a larger political group. Campus
‘political’ activities are not mere contrivances designed to
provide practice in the essentials of citizenship; they are
Soltvitles serving real ends and performing real] functions.
We are students, but we are at the same time citizens of the
college as well as the national community; this dual identity
should at no time be forgotten, but its recognition during the
period of elections is particularly essential.
NOTICE
Undergrad and Self-Gov are pleased to announce their candi-:
dates for the office of president: ;
but~encompassed—byneither, Al-
though courses relevant to this
sort of preparation are offered by
the college, she may. find them so
distributed among the various de-
partments of the social sciences
that the requirements of a major
in one field prevent her from tak-
ing advantage of those related ond
pertinent courses arbitrarily des-
ignated to another.
Programs of study in these
broad fields, whose relevant aspects
are at Bryn Mawr treated by var-
ious courses’ in the departments of
Political Science, Psychology, Soci-
ology, Economics and History, have
been devised at many colleges and
universities since the war, Har-
vard’s Department of Social Re-
lations is, perhaps, the best known
of these, but major-work in de-
partments known variously as Po-
litical Behavior, Human Relations,
or American Studies can be done
at many universities.
Professors Concur
The need for some method of
more satisfactorily integrating
courses in the various social sci-
ences at Bryn (Mawr has been ac-
knowledged by faculty members in
these fields, Questioned on this
subject, Professors ‘Bachrach,
Brown, and Schneider (of Political
Science, Psychology, and Sociology
respectively) generally agreed that
as the curriculum is_now set up it
does not allow students to take
advantage of course offerings in
\the related fields to the extent

lems which might be preferred by
students professionally interested

istic approach to social science.”

ning further study or oe and

grounding in the methods and
techniques of one. Not only must
ber of requirements into a sched-
ule of four courses a year, but the
introductory courses of the social
sciences (except for political . sci-
ence) are two semesters each, and
many of the advanced courses de-
mand prerequisites. Thus, “trap-
ped into a lot of specialized cours-
es she doesn’t want,” as Schneider
put it, the student may find it im-
possible to squeeze into her pro-
gram courses directly related to
her interests.
Methods Sought
Though none would favor the
creation fo a new inter-department-
al department of the type estab-
lished at Harvard, Bachrach,
Brown, and Schneider are not to-
tally in accord as to what would
be the best method of dealing with
the need for integration.
“What I’m interested in experi-
menting with,” says Mr. Bach-
rach, “is problem-oriented teach-
ing in the social sciences . . . that
is, rather than have the student
proficient in the method, approach,
and content of one area of social
science she would be exposed to
the complexities:and difficulties of
solving problems within the con-
text of the real world .. .”
Thesis Suggested
“This -would~itivolve- having the
departments flexible enough to al-
low an inter-disciplinary approach

science major’ is incidental, All
of the advantages of the plan could
be had with a major in one depart-
ment, courses in the others, and -
an inter-disciplinary thesis.”
humanistic non-specialized ap-
proach to a wide variety of social-
relational problems,” Mr. Schnei-
der is “definitely in favor of inter-
disciplinary thesis work where it
seems appropriate” but~—does—not-
consider it_absolutely necessary to
an integrated program. More im-
portant, he feels, is a greater co-
ordination of the resources of the
various departments for an inter-
disciplinary approach \to a thesis
in one field.
“A student doing work in econ-
omics, for example, should have
the opportunity to consult with
members of other departments on
the sociological, political, or psy-
chological aspects of her project.
Discussions with faculty members
in_ related ifields .about methods and
source material could be of great
assistance in avoiding mistakes
and saving time. This cooperation
could be brought about bby the for-
mal setting up of a ‘Social Science
Section’ whose punpose it would be
to take better advantage of the
resources of the member depart-
ments.”
Shortcomings Cited
“An integrated program with a
selection of courses from the Po-
litical Science, Anthropology, Econ-
omics, History, and Psychology
Departments could be set up by
having departments waive certain
prerequisites and requirements in
specialized methodological cours-
es...” Mir. Schneider acknowl-
edges that such a program would
have definite shortcomings in that
it would indubitably weaken the
major and might lower the stan- |
that it ought.
The course structure as it now
stands presents several barriers to

New Undergrad President
To Meet Many Problems
by Marcy Tench
On Saturday evening at Freshman Show I over-
heard a freshman trying to explain our tradi-
explanation: they are something which have always
existed and are enforced, run, and financed by the
administration. Somewhere this year. we have fail-
ed to explain the meaning and functions of the Un-
dergraduate Association,
This misunderstanding, which I fear is campus-
wide, provoked some thought as to what type of
person should head the Undergraduate Association.
This year the final steps were taken in the plan for
Reorganization and the new system has been in
effect for a month. All of us working on this proj-
ect became aware of a real and pressing problem:
communications. The person whom you select to be
your next president of the Undergraduate Associa-
tion must have the concern and capabilities to com-
municate to every student the meaning, purpose,
and varied functions of Undergrad. ‘With Under-
grad’s Executive Board encompassing so many new
interest groups, the president must have broad
pre ir of all the organizations and not merely
Undergrad; there will be more to communicate.
To me the above is the most immediate problem
for the coming year. Aside, therefore, from the
ability to put herself and her organization across
to the students, the president must be acutely aware
of and receptive to all student ideas. Interest and
patience are qualities which must be had at all times.
Then there are those that apply to any president;
organization, tact, and an ability to communicate
easily and clearly with the administration, faculty,
graduates, and undergraduates,
It has never been the policy of the Undergradu-
ate Association to make recommendations, but I
advise strongly that the president be very familiar
with Undergrad and its workings, which means that
she should have been on the Board for at least one
jof her three years.
In many ways it is an cseisiiians and trying
job, but in retrospect it is a position full of rewards
tions to her date. She came up with the following |
Recommendations on Elections
“Virtue, Wisdom, Courage”
Demanded for Presidency
by Sue Harris
Each year the President of Self-Gov makes a
short speech to the junior class prior to the straw-
balloting, in which she describes the nature of the
office she holds, This year I have submitted the
speech which I made before the juniors on Monday,
February 15 to the College News in the hopes that
the rest of the college might also have an idea of
the demands of the office before the March elections
have come and gone.
It has been said that the office of the president -
of Self-Gov is limitless. This is quite true, I think.
She is obviously checked both constitutionally and
by custom in her position as president. But what
limits there are do not prevent her from feeling out
the nature of her job and, to a large extent, deter-
mining the boundaries of her job for herself. From
the point of view of mental energy and the hours
spent with people ‘on both sides of the law’, she
must.fix her own limits.
The president has at least three ant meetings a
week, and two other meetings when necessary.
These meetings include chairing the Advisory and
(Executive Boards of SelfGov, and sitting on the
Executive Board of Undergrad, the Academic Honor
Board, and College Council. She is thus involved
in many different aspects of the community, all of
which aré valuable to her in observing and under-
standing the way of life at Bryn Mawr; consequent-
ly, she is often called upon to give both her opinion
and that of Self4Gov when an idea is up for discus-
sion,
There are a number of “seasonal” duties to which
the president must attend, such as measuring’ the
snowfall with her trusty ruler before breakfast.
But on the whole one cannot say exactly what the
president will encounter during her term of office.
Her duties might range from helping the hall pres-
idents decide on Christmas Dinner speakers to dis-
cussing a possible expulsion; or from helping to
set up a new residence hall to correcting freshman
Self4Gov exams; or from speaking to several hun-
dred people on the theory and practice of Self-Gov

Answers. Problems
The cooperative plan seeks new
answers to several difficult prob-
lems which have developed with
the growth of study in America by
students: from many lands _ since
World ‘War II.
“The colleges. are hoping, on
their ‘own initiative, to suggest
new ways of dealing with a situa-
tion which has concerned Ameri-
can deans and admissions ‘officers
for some time,” explains David
D.. Henry, Director of Admissions
at Harvard and secretary of the
| cooperating: -coleges’-steering com-.
mittee for the plan.:
colleges find it difficult, and some-
times impossible, to assess school
records and reports from abroad
in terms of the standards we apply
to American students. We believe
a joint effort, involving direct co-
operation between educators here
and abroad, may offer a fresh ap-
proach to some long-standing prob-
lems in international student ex-
change.” (For. the students, in ad-
dition to the problem of improved
scholastic evaluation, there is meed
of careful planning for effective
job placement on their return to
their homelands.
Why Nigeria?
The 21 colleges and universities
hope ‘to initiate their limited pilot
project in Nigeria this spring, to
admit students for the academic
year 1960-61.
The cooperation of Nigerian ed-
ucators was sought in the pilot
project with several considerations
in mind. Nigeria will become an
independent nation in October,
1960. Its 85,000,000 people have
a special eagerness at this moment
to obtain the best education for
their youth. Interest in American
institutions is keen and widespread
in Nigeria, and English is the lan-
guage of instruction in its schools.
Many Nigerian students have at-
tended American colleges and uni-
versities since the end of World
War II.

his vice president, Louis Loeb, is

The Society also has a growing
library of folksinging information

Haverford Class Night
To Omit Cynical Quality
by David Gwatkin
On Thursday night, March 3, the
Haverford Students’ Council will
once again present its annual Class
Night performance at eight o’clock
in Roberts Hall on the Haverford.
campus. The proceeds of this
presentation, originally used, ac-
cording to legend, to pay for dam-
ages on the Swarthmore campus
inflicted by overenthusiastic Hav-
erford supporters, now go to the
War Memorial Scholarship Fund.
The program consists. of four
separate plays of approximately
thirty minutes, written and pre-
sented by each of the four classes.
Although the subject-matter usu-
ally remains secret until the ac-
tual performance, most plays in
the past have dealt with Haver-
ford and Bryn Mawr life, and have
often viewed these subjects very
humorously, if somewhat unkind-
ly. According to rumor, this
year’s Class Night, while retain-
ing all its humor, will tend to cut
down on the cold cruelty and piti-
less heartbreak often associated
with it.
Tickets for the presentation,
chargeable to Pay Day, will be
made available soon to all Bryn

tending at a price of seventy-five
cents apiece. This price will in-

show, but also transportation to

Herman Toll of the 6th District of
Pennsylvania ((Germantown-Chest-

streth, Republican candidate for
Mayor of Philadelphia against Dil-
worth in 1952, The topic of their
talks was “The Issues which Should
be Important in the 1960° Presi-
dential Campaign.” Mr. Toll stress-
ed three main issues which he con-
sidered to be the most important.
He placed most emphasis on the °
need for greater defense and secur-
ity spending, underlining —the
“keeping up with the Russians”
attitude. He accused the Repub-
lican party of complacency on this
vital issue. (Secondly he stressed
the need for growth in education.
The necessity for the expansion of
education, he explained, was for
the sake of training engineers and
scientists. in order to keep mili-
tarily prepared in the face of the
cold war. ‘Mr. Toll’s final main
area of concern was in the field of
civil rights. ‘He said that strong
civil rights legislation must be
‘passed, and he blamed the Republi-

for not taking effective steps in
pushing through such measures.
Mr. Longstreth attempted to
give an image of the modern Re-

He said that the Democrats try to,
propagate the idea that the\Dem-_

premise by citing the examples of

“This brings up the question,”
he notes, “of what relation the
needs of the students should have
to the curriculum. | Bryn Mawr
has traditionally been dedicated to
the strong major. A glance at the
catalogues of her sister colleges
shows that none has as rigid re-
quirements for a sociology major.
In the case of Wellesley, for in-
stance, the system is so lax that
required courses aren’t even listed
in the catlogue! The question is;
do we have an obligation to the stu-
dent who wants a general course,
or is our obligation to the princi-
ples of the college? . .. It seems
to me there are no definite ans-
wers and so it might be good to
keep changing, even if just for the
sake of change. Requirements
tend to become routinized... I’m
in favor of occasionally shaking
things up, talking about, and ex-
ploring new possibilities.”
That greater flexibility in pro-
gramming and exposure to a wid-
er area of study justifies weaken-|...
ing the major program is disputed
by (Mr. Brown who feels that “the
only way one becomes educated is
by intensive delving into one sub-
ject matter .. .” “The techniques of
thought and empirical facts neces-
sary to creatively resolve prob-
lems can’t be achieved when you
only skim the surface of a lot of
things . . . the mind is best devel-
oped by delving deeply into one
field . . . once one is well grounded
in the techniques of one field he
can easily pick up knowledge of
the others.”
“The desirability of a strong ma-
jor,” Mr. Brown continued, “is a
complex question related to the
goals of the faculty, the ideology
of the college, and the aims of the

education in preparation for grtdu-

cate “an organization of the se-
quence of courses so that they can
major in one field and take cours-
es and comps in related others.
The mechanism for this has been
available for a long time—it is
simply a matter of easing the cur-
riculum so the proper courses can
fit in. This might be done by
changing introductory courses to
one semester so students could go
on to advanced courses in their
freshman year.”
Another means of adding scope
without weakening the majors
would be senior seminars on topics
cutting across several fields. “Sev-
eral of these,” Mr. Brown said, “like

bound to religion.
He felt that there were three
failures of organized religion: the
emotional, the intellectual, and the
moral, Among the educated, re-
ligion is no longer a source of in-
_tense emotional experience._—The-}
scholarly derive this experience
from literature, music, or the thea-
tre instead.
The intellectual failure of or-
ganized religion is a kind of moral
of honesty._(Religious beliefs tak-
en literally are intellectually un-
satisfactory. Nor can they be
taken symbolically as Niebuhr and
Tillich propose, because’ three
questions would remain unanswer-
ed. |What is meant by the sym-
bol? Zs the gymbolical meaning
warranted? ids it more warranted
than an indefinite number of other
possible intenpretations?’ There-
fore, Kaufmann feels that in. be-
lieving things without knowing,
one is being..less than honest with
oneself.
Examining the motivation for
adherence to a religious morality,
Kaufmann referred to Kant and
William Paley. Kant pointed out
that if obedience to the will of God
is extorted by fear of divine ret-
ribution then morality is reduced
to prudential behavior. Kaufmann
suggested the substitution of love
of God for fear or hope of gain as
a solution to this problem. This
still leaves the problem which he
regards as insoluble: how do we
know what is moral, or, in a relig-
ious context, how do we know. what
__is-God’s will?
Kaufmann presented his own
positive alternative—a morality of
openness. A flexible moral code is
derived from exposing oneself to
“involves a lack}

ities, (However, one cannot prove
Reverend Stra
Reverend Straughan Gettier,
chapel speaker last Sunday night,
considered the question “Is Ongan-
ized Religion necessary?” Rever-
end Gettier is the minister of the
Unitarian Church in Princeton,
New Jersey.
Mr. (Gettier began ' his talk by.
‘stating the arguments against or-
ganized religion. The first case
that defenders of organized relig-
ion put forth is that it has been
around for a long time and has mer-
it as_a continuing institution, This.
argument is_ irrelevant, said the
speaker, because one could say
that the institution of war has
been around an ‘even longer time
and it is probably better and more
organized today than it has ever
been, yet certainly war is not a
worthwhile instituion.
The two main anguments against
organized religion are first that it
is artificial and second that it is
“bad”, continued Mr. Gettier. In
support of the first point he stat-
ed that organized religion is a con-
trivance, developed culturally rath-
er than instinctively. “A child on
a desert island, raised by a moth-
erly wolf would never conceive
of Christian concepts of religion.”
Organized religion is “bad” for
three reasons. First, it is narrow
or promotes narrowness. History
illustrates that sectarian ideas
have had vicious effects. Secondly,
it is outmoded. The theology of
organized religion answers all
questions. and so seems to solve
his way is right and must leave it
open for adaptation to different
situations. The .invariables _ in
Kaufmann’s code are. humility,
love, courage without hope, and
honesty especially, but not only,
to oneself. Kaufmann concluded
with a quotation from Nietzsche’s
Thus Spake Zarathustra, “This is
my way, what is yours?”
ughan Gettier
man’s problems, went on (Mr. Get-
tier. “You recite a creed with
magnificent language elipsis. In ef-
fect it is just theology translated
to the nervous system.” He added
that man can’t give allegiance to
thoughts he himself hasn’t exam-
lined. _Thirdly,—organized religion |
is oppressive. This is a result of
the organization of the religious
body itself. It must have the pow-
er to enforce its creed or historic-
al tradition.
Twenty years ago it was.predicted
that the twilight period of Christ-
ianity had come, but all statistics
show religion to be even more
powerful and popular now than at
any other period in history. But
does this organized zeal mean any-
thing?” questioned Mr. Gettier.
“Is there a need for organized re-
ligion or rather for reorganized
religion?” The objectives of re-
ligion are the same as they have
always been, he explained. Essen-
tially they are to help people to
have a concept of order, to main-
tain a community and to justify
authority in our social organiza-
tions.
The Christian church uses three
sources for its power: the sword,
the scriptures, and the Christian
theme of life and history. It is
now challanged in all of these as-
pects. The sword or political pow-
er of the church is separated
from government in the United
States by the Constitution and the
support of Supreme Court deci-
sions. The Bible has come under
scholarly criticism. The tenets of
the Christian tradition are desir-
able but it is not necessary to at-
tain them through the Christian
religion. ‘We should look at all
religious organizations with a
fresh eye and see what things we
want them to do,” summarized Mr.
Gettier. “The punpose of religion
is to raise the potentiality of the

The. greatest single danger in
music appreciation is the confu-
sion of the objectively valuable
with the subjectively pleasurable.
The appreciation of music must not
be reduced to the mere worship of
pleasurable sensation, with the
listener permitting himself to be-
come immersed in an “aural tone-
bath” in which he luxuriates “with
half-closed eyes and fully closed
mind.” (Mozart’s work exemplifies
the perfect balance between beau-
ty and profundity.
Elements Of Sound
The sound of music, Mr. Lang
went on to say, is artificial. Noth-
ing like it is to be found in nature.
It can tbe analyzed into three gen-
eral component parts, which are
duration or tempo, pitch, and in-
tensity (of loudness), A possible
fourth element is “tone-color”, or
what makes the same note differ-
‘ent when played on different in-
struments or sung by different
voices. This, however, is really
only the mingling of the same
note with subsidiary sound-waves
that alter it slightly, and thus
falls under the heading of pitch.
In actual fact, however, this
three-sided tone scheme (duration,
pitch, intensity) is only a rough
and inadequate sketch. It is based
largely on the Pythagorean theory
that music is purely mathematical.
In opposition to this idea is that
developed by Hugo Riemann, who
lived in the late seventeenth and
early eighteenth centuries.
According to Riemann, the core
of “musical. logic” is an artistic
thought process virtually inde-
_| pendent. of the ‘natural sciences._To}
discuss music in terms of physics
or mathematics is pointless. To
illustrate this, ‘Mr. Lang consider-
ed duration, or musical time, from
this new angle,
‘Duration has neither a mathe-
matical nor a cosmic nature, but
comes directly from within man.
The fact that musical time used
to ibe reckoned by the beat of the
pulse until the much more prac-
tical metronome was introduced
accords with this.
The essence of musical time con-
tinuity is its flexibility. Although
of course it must relate to the mu-
sical context, duration as a com-
ponent part of music also has an
“organic vitality”. Music does not
fing with religious music,

deal with absolutes; everything is
relative because everything can be
reinterpreted in terms of another
kind of time.
In a sense, every composition
does have a correct tempo, but this
is determined by human and per-
sonal factors rather than by ab-
solute principles or pure disci-
pline. Many considerations, such
as the qualities 0f @ singers Voice
or the acoustics of the room, must
be taken into account. It is up
to the sensitivity of the performer
to assess these influences.’ Some-
times the composer puts down the

hind the statement that in relig-
ious music the “leading role is
and was in the hands of the lay-
man, that is, layman where music
is concerned,” can be easily under-
stood. ‘Luther, in deciding to re-
tain music in the liturgy: of his
church, fathered Bach, Buxtehude
and Schutz, while in Calvinist
countries church music ‘was virtu-
ally unknown.
Mr. Lang went on to say that
not only has there been a deterior-
ation of music, there has also been
a confusion of what religious mu-
sic is. Just because the texts are
religious, it does not follow that
the music must be the same. For
example, Handel and Purcell sec-
ularized music. “To us, Handel’s
Messiah is the very essence of
sacred music.” In the composer’s
day, however, it was considered
entertainment. ‘Much of this type
of music was concerned with ap-
pearance and morals but not with
religion,

In Took-
ing at the symbols of different
cults we see that culture is the
differential
cult. Culture is always full of
spiritual reality. These spiritual
symbols are exemplified in Luth-
er’s insistence that the lines of
Christ be set forth in sturdy to-
nality. Symbolism, however, is not
the, only aesthetic criterion. Per-
fection in tune is also desired.
“Music is like a mirror.” It
reflects the feelings of a whole va-
riety of cults, especially the Christ-
ian ones. It has become, however,
no more than a vehicle; it supports
the text instead of representing
itself.

choly mood in both lyrics and mu-
sic of his songs.
Even more outstanding was the
choreography, usually a rather
weak point in a class show. Joan
Chapin’s work was by far the most
creative I’ve seen here. Especial-
ly attractive were the schoolchil-
dren, who managed to work in a
few kicks without high-stepping |
out of character—and Fester Fan-
tom’s Frivolities, as danced*by the
Cocktail Set, and Abby Thomas’
beatnik dance, had to be seen to
be believed.-
A Allegorical Types
Because of the allegorical na-
ture of the show, there were few
strong character parts, but a great
many types. This perhaps ex-
plains the consistently high qual-
ity of the acting. The Happiness
Germ ‘was not an actors’ show, but
individual ,talents stood out, and
made one. regret that more hadn’t
been done with such characters as
the Little Man (he had such a
charming smile), the — scientists
(Ann Kneeland and Cynthia Gard-
ner, in particular, began to be
quite interesting as individuals in
the last act, quite apart from their
excellent stylized performances up
to that point), and some of the
socialites and beatniks.
Small Parts Built Up
Ann Witman was an engaging
Polly, and one would have liked to
have heard more of. her singing.
Actors who built small parts into
large ones by skillful use of ges-
ture and byplay were Joan Chapin,
Geeti Sen, Roberta Downs, Mimi
Orr, Lana Lewenthal, and Virginia
McShane.
In the case of Angela Schrode
(Teline), stylization made no dif-
ference—nothing could have held
her down. One seldom understood
what she was saying, but that
didn’t matter. Her timing of lines
and/or hiccups was flawless, and
she got most of the laughs in the
penthouse scene and, in fact, when-
ever she was on stage.
The lack not only of character
development but of characteriza-
tion led to the expository nature
of most-of the dialogue. It was
at its best as delivered by Jo Anne
Rosenthal, Anita Polishuk, Pauline
Dubkin, Elizabeth Fox, et al., be-
cause artificiality seemed more
natural from the Beatniks, but
even so what one heard was not
dialogue but consciously clever
Thought, This scene was the most
effective one in -the-show,-in—spite|—~
of its precarious balance between
parody of beat language and gen-
uine sympathy with the charac-
ters.
Much less successful in the pent-
house scenes chiefly because it was
pointless and unintelligible, the
dialogue was worse still in the
first act. (Scientists and school-
children’ were politely télling each
other, for the benefit of the audi-
ence, things which they must have
known already: it resembled a well-
rehearsed ‘informal panel discus-
sion (“I’ll answer that, Mal’).
Moral Objectionable
Consequently, it- was fortunate
that dialogue was cut to a mini-
mum.
and in fact my only strong objec-
‘ion to the show, was its use of a

Moral. There is nothing wrong,
certainly, with an implied moral—
most plays have one, if you look
hard enough for it. But The Hap-
piness Germ was not content with
implying its moral: it. subordinat-
ed everything else to it. And then,
when rwe.arrived at the point where
the Deep Inner Meaning of the
plot was to be revealed, it turned
out to be a combination of Abby >;
Van Buren and a Women’s Christ-
ian Temperance Union tract. The
Answer Song answered nothing at
all.

terfered even with the comic char-
acters. It seemed unfair, for in-
stance, to condemn such a wonder-
fully funny character as Teline for
being what she was, though the
success of “Teline’s Songs”—music-
ally and dramatically one of the
best things in the show—partially
justified its use.
On the other hand, it was the
“Goodhart:
moral which gave The Happiness
Germ its particular freshness and
charm. Strangely innocent beside
most of its predecessors, it show-
ed, behind the polish of its actors,
