Mr. Eugene Carson Blake Addresses
The College at Baccalaureate, Sunday

The sermon at Baccalaureate
Chapel Service Sunday night was
delivered by the Reverend Doctor
Eugene Carson Blake, President of

the National Council of: Churches | §

of Christ in America. Dr, Blake

began with a description of the|

accession of the emperor Tiberius
to the Roman throne, a seat of su-
preme authority, religious as well
as political, and a description of
‘ the character of this emperor, 80
great in his time. Political and ec: |

Roman morals—the people expect-

‘these troubled times, but Tiberius.

could not solve them, Where could
one look for help?’

At the same time, on a grassy
hillside in Galilee, a peasant was
talking to other peasants. He en-
joyed no prestige or fame, a mere
earpenter’s son. But it was from
him that the solution to civiliza-
ton’s problem was to come. The
Romans -would have scoffed at his
words, spoken with the tone of
authority: “He who hears my
words, and does them, shall be like
a wise man, who built his house
upon a rock.” But today Tiberius
is but a name in a history book,
between Augustus and Caligula in
the list of Roman emperors. And

through the ages.

This miracle of the transforma-
tion of significance should give us
a new perspective on our roles in
the world. We today are faced
with the same problems as Rome
of 2,000 years ago, Perhaps, in-
stead of turning to Congress and
the U.N. for thé basic answers to
these problems, we should direct
our attention to small groups of
humble people. It is possible that
again we are blinded by apparent
greatness, and ignore what is of
true importance.

ice,

Mr. Henry Chauncey, President
of the Educational Testing Service
at Princeton, gave the commence-
ment address this morning, June
fourth. His topic primarily con-
cerned education for coming gen-
erations and the potential value of
testing methods to help determine
the place-of the individual in so-
ciety.

He stressed the increasing im-
portance of specialized training to-
day, and the difficulties of enlarged
student enrollment, stating that
the “tidal wave of students, com-
bined with the diversity and quality
of training required, confronts our
country with a whole host of edu-
cational problems.” One of the
most ‘essential problems is “the
task of helping our young people to
fulfill their capacities for education
in environments congenial to their
aptitudes.”

It is the class of “young people
of average ability, who ultimately
determine our character as a na-
tion,” and it is the variety within
this class that must be discovered
by means of “measuring tools” that
afford insight into the individual’s
“weaknesses, abilities, interests,
ways of approaching problems and
situations ... By far the most im-
portant use of tests is to enlarge
a person’s knowledge of himself.”

Mr. Chauncey wished to empha-
size that testing “can make its
greatest contribution” not in re-
ducing society to patterns of con-
formity, but rather in its potential
“ability to make clearer and clear-
er--the image of the individual,”
thereby fulfilling the “constant
responsibility of a democratic so-
ciety.” .

Testing today, Mr. Chauncey
pointed out, is still in experiment-
al stages, but eventually “greater
and greater reliance” will be placed
“on the many different kinds of
tests that will be developed as aids
to understanding the capacities and



special characteristics of youth.”

Poem

Dedicated to Helen Taft Manning by Stephen J. Herben

First Lady of the land (when most of you

Were puzzling over P and Q).

Hostess to Sultans, Democrats and Kings,

She turned her mind to somewhat higher things.
Surpassing all her Eli family

At Yale took, en passant,

a Ph.D.

Here at Bryn Mawr,. fantastic though it be,
She got along, with (even liked!) P.T.
Teacher, Historian, friend, twice Dean—
What is there that she has not been?

A model for the past (or

any) age,

A Person and a Personage.

Spring ‘Revue’ ‘Derhaps Best Yet’

In Material, Style And Technique

by Eleanor Winsor

In the wake of the recent state-
ment somewhat hesitantly made by
a few people concerning their pres-
ent idea of culture gods and influ-
ences, has come the May issue of
the Bryn Mawr - Haverford Revue
— another testimony, somewhat
stronger, but still consistent with
the general trend of the first, of
the literary consciousness on cam-
pus.

The current Revue, edited this
time by Paula Dunaway and Con-
nie Horton, Mather Fieck and
Frank Conroy, is perhaps the best
that has yet appeared both in its
selection of material and in the
stories which are somewhat more
than youthful experiments with
youthful themes—love, death and
adolescence. Besides an awareness
of contemporary trends and types,
the writers show a strong and ma-
ture interest in technique and sev-
eral have a fine independent style.

This awareness of types and
trends seems to draw a distinction
in fictional work between Bryn
Mawr and Haverford as the former
stories are individual within the
modern trend and the latter for the
most part do betray the influence
of well-known writers of the last
few ‘decades. Often here the ex-
periments of a major writer have
provided a framework for experi-
ment -by suggesting a theme or a
manner of treatment.

“Each of the four Bryn Mawr
short story writers has developed
a particular harmony of subject
and treatment and has written well
within her framework. As studies
of the childhood consciousness, Pat-
ty Ferguson’s “Four Steps In
Springtime” and D. MacNab
Brown’s “The Journal Summer”
combine sensitive understanding
with description. Miss Brown’s
Florida is rich and ther narrative
point of view combines the lush
beauty with a simple haunting
quality of memory. Miss Fengu-
son’s characters are appealing and
handled with understanding.

Elizabeth Carr has already cre-
ated and polished a distinct and
mature style. Her story, “Mardi
Had Three Lovers,” is captivating
in the deft handling of moods for
description, sound and atmosphere
and her “Katama Road” combines
these qualities with the force of
narrative and a sii compell-
ing plot.

Betsy Nelson’s sense of humor
is piquant but self-confident. In
“Peacock” her characters are fun-
ny in themselves and the humor is
increased by her approach.

On the Haverford side, there is
also appreciable humor in

_| Helmsteder’s story “The P, F. Col-

lier’s Man”. Although at one point
the exaggeration outweighs itself
in long dialogue, the details and
point of view are good and the con-
clusion is delightful.

Timothy Sheldon has worked

Novel Is Written
By Miss B. Linn

Miss Linn, recently appointed
full professor in English, has had
published a new novel, A Letter
to Elizabeth.

J. B. Lippincott Company who
published the book on May-15-sum-=
marizes it as follows: “A Letter to
Elizabeth is the story of a young
girl who is the illegitimate child
of a strange affair. In the summer
of her sixteenth year, she goes to



meet her father fer the first time;.

it is a visit which begins innocent-
ly and builds up to a tense, prob-
ing drama of discovery and change.
A group of intelligent, sensitive
people are caught in a web of un-
foreseen circumstances, and it is
the young girl, achieving a sud-
den maturity, who expels the dan-
gers of the past by her under-
standing of them .. . It is a mov-
ing tale of the consequences of
‘unearthing buried memories.”



well,
particularly illuminating, with the
familiar outdoorsy manner of
Hemingway in “Conflict”. In his
“Gentleman’s Chamber” he has
more of a free essay than a story
and he uses his freedom to explore
some of the topics that his col-
leagues have treated in their stor-
ies. There is more raw material
than development here.

The anonymous story, “Oceans
II”, as well as the poem “hey fagin,
come see the bombs fallin’” owe
more to stylistic sources than any-

thing else in the magazine and |

while the poem is interesting, the
story, for lack of the space nec-
essary to develop any recognizable
context for the experiment, falls
into a too-familiar type of collegi-
ate abstruseness.

Frank Conroy’s stories are good
narrative and the characters are
interesting although the subjects
and settings are worn,

Several good groups of poems
highlight this Revue and with the
exception of the work by Mather
Fieck, these poems seem relatively
free of that contorted imagery
and obscure juxtaposition that

‘manages to startle, but fails to

convince,

Benita ~ Beéndon’s- two. poems» in
imagery and‘versification are ex-
cellent, and “Primer” is one of the
best of the poems in the collection.
Paula Dunaway’s “Patterns of
Love” is simple and lovely; her
verse combines with the develop-
ment of her thought in a striking
manner that her other two poems
have not attempted, although they
too are clear and precise.

Connie Horton’s lyrics are clear
and musical; she often makes
startling combinations but she
does so with a confidence that
seems as convincing to our vision
as it must be to hers.

Adele MacVeagh’s work is
smooth and pictorially attractive;
her poems have an exhilarating
freshness and their appeal is main-
ly to delight. Cynthia Lovelace’s
‘Through Three Spaces” is a good
attempt to bridge the gap from
“pictura” to “poesis”; here her
complication of words is quite ap-
propriate. The anonymous poem
“Another For T ...” has some
clear images, although the whole
has a shade of Eliot in the con-
struction and style,

Variety of style, although not of
genre, marked this Revue; the col-
or design on the cover is an ap-
propriate and tasteful note. One
might hope that sometime illustra-
tions will follow, and that some of
the. creative talent in art that ap-
peared in the recent exhibit may
have an opportunity to combine
with literary talent in the produc-
tion of a campus magazine.

SATISFACTION*

A girl tries hard to get her guy,
With lipstick, powder, rouge and dye.
She primps, she paints, she colors and curls
To try to beat the.other girls.
And when she’s got it all just right,
~~ She always says, “‘I-look a sight!’

MORAL: Set your sights on the BIG,

BIG pleasure of Chesterfield King! Live
a little! There’s more full-flavored
satisfaction from the world’s best
tobaccos. PLUS King-size filter

action! Big, big length—for a better
tobacco filter! Packed smoother

Chesterfield King has everything!

Seniors Present

Class Day Skits,

Represent Varying BMC Attitudes

On “Class Day”, the last day of ,h

classes, the seniors presented four.
skits at Taylor, Dalton, the. Gym
and the Library.
: The first skit, if not quite orig-
inal, was a startling transposition
of a vaguely familiar theme to the
Bryn Mawr environment, A lovely
blonde baby doll, appropriately
dressed and boxed in crib, lounged
on Taylor steps. Her mother, var-
ious college dignitaries, and of
course, the villian, a Haverford boy,
all cavorted to the southern drawl
of the narrator.

Baby doll, it seems, was enjoy-
ing her debut at Bryn Mawr, She
just made it without disaster. The
moral of the tale—there’s still



periment; Progress to Plenty?”

Carol Colebob—“‘A Study of the
Representation Theory of Boolean
Algebras.”

Dorothy Innes Blanchard—“Pres-
byterian Polity; Its History, Struc-
ture, and Operation.”

Radnor

Suzanne Levin—“‘A Discussion of
Electronic Digital Computors and
Their Use in the Solution of Scien-
tific Problems.”

Joan Schreiber—“Some Studies
on the Aerobic and Anaerobic

Metabolism ‘of Tetrahymena | piri- |
"Tr.

¢

Paula Sutter—“ ‘One Eye to the
Sun’ — The University of Goet-
tingen—1734-1789.”

"he second. skit was comprised
of scientists, scientists with brews
and weights and dogfish, scientists
clinging to ledges, hanging from
windows and crowding out of Dal-
ton’s doors. Their plea, rendered
in snappy lyrics (Gilbert and Sulli-
van could scarcely be distinguished
from Junior Show) was for ingen-
ious new equipment to match their
own inventiveness.

The performance at the gym was
an; enact. t of a Survey of Eter-
nity 101 Course, bringing such no-
tables as Plato, (with parents)
Dante, Cleopatra, a Graeco-Roman
discus thrower ~‘and Marianne
Moore to life.

No one appeared overwhelmed
by the impressive march of civili-
zation, In fact, a dominant note
of optimism was struck with the
guiding principle that “Bryn Mawr
is a tough training ground for
women’s minds.”

The final skit gave the TRUE
representation of Life at Bryn
Mawr. The students filed in and
out of the library in a very aca-
demic procession, The Monroe Doc-
trine, characterized by a tall blonde
type, the persevering student with
a white veil ond..the svant-gende-:
with a banjo and swaying hips
paraded, about in the Bryn Mawr -
fashion. At last the college is



seen in its true colors,

Atomic power

It was there, in the ground, in the air and
water, It always had been. There are no more
“raw materials” today than there were when

The only thing new is knowledge. . . knowledge
of how to get at and rearrange raw materials.°
Every invention of modern times was “available”
to Rameses, Caesar, Charlemagne,

In this sense, then, we have available today in
existing raw materials the inventions that can
make our lives longer, happier, safer, easier. We
need only knowledge to bring them into reality,

Could there possibly be a better argument for
the strengthening of our sources of knowledge—
our colleges and universities? Can we possibly
deny that the welfare, progress— indeed the very
fate—of our nation depends on the quality of
knowledge generated and transmitted by these
institutions of higher learning?

It is almost unbelievable that a society such as
ours, which has profited so vastly from an accel-
erated accumulation of knowledge, should allow
anything to threaten the wellsprings of our

Yet this is the case.

The crisis that confronts our colleges today
threatens to weaken seriously their ability to
produce the kind of graduates who can assimilate

and carry forward our rich heritage of learning.

our aid.

alee

The crisis is composed of several elements: a
salary scale that is driving away from teaching
the kind of mind most qualified to teach; over-
crowded classrooms; and a mounting pressure of
applications that will i increase 100% by 1967.:

In a very real sense our personal and national
progress depends on our colleges. They must have
