Artist's sheiiteh of the n new aryn:d Mawr College | Science Conk which will occupy ta acres
on the campus.
When completed, it will be the first center in a women’s college for students
in science at all levels from the first year to the Ph. D. The architects are the Philadelphia firm
of Martin, Stewart and Noble.
President McBride discussed
plans for the new science center
on campus at today’s commence-
ment exercises. The project will
cost about $1,600,000. ©
When completed, the center will
be the first in any women’s col-
lege for students in science at all
levels from the first year to the
Ph.D. It will occupy nearly four
acres of the 70-acre campus and
will bring together the college’s
full program of teaching and re-
search in biology, chemistry, geol-
ogy, mathematics and physics. .
Planning for the center is the
result of Bryn Mawr’s 15 years of
experience in developing a_pro-
gram of coordinated teaching in
the sciences and mathematics. In
the new layout of buildings, de-
partments that function together
will. share expensive equipment
necessary for interrelated work
and duplication of libraries will be
reduced to a minimum.
The proposed building program
provides for two new units to be
added to the present unit, Park
Hall, built in 1938, which now
houses the chemistry and geology
departments. A three-story struc-
ture will be built for the biology
department and another for the
mathematics and physics depart-
ments.

Miss McBride Discusses Plans For Science Building;
|Will Contain Facilities For’ Science Teaching, Research’
The biology building, which will
cost about $900,000, will contain
besides laboratories and classrooms
for regular work, special labora-
tories for teaching microbiology,
biochemistry and anatemy, -a lec-
ture hall seating 125, a library,
and an isotope room for storing
and processing radioactive com-
pounds.
The physics and mathematics
building will have laboratories lo-
cated below ground level in which
the precise control of temperature
and humidity necessary for mod-
ern physical research can be main-
tained. The plans also call for lab-
oratories and classrooms on the
upper floors, an optics laboratory,
a lecture hall and a library in this
‘unit, which will cost about $700,-
000.
President McBride announced
preliminary gifts of $200,000 to-
ward the center. “The building
program will be accelerated,” she
said, “because of the crowding in
all buildings in the College and be-
cause of the effort to put the
teaching of science on the best pos-
sible basis in view of the demand
for highly qualified personnel.”
“Present shortages of scientists)
prepared to undertake basic re-
search or teaching are known to be
serious,” President McBride went
on to say, “and there is evidence
that they will be come more criti-
cal. Teachers of science are in
such short supply that the educa-
tion of future scientists is threat-
ened.”
Miss McBride also said that pro-
portionately large numbers of
Bryn Mawr students studied in sci-
ence or mathematics. A _ recent
survey showed that one quarter of
all Ph.D.’s at Bryn Mawr. were tak-
en in science. A study of occupa-
tions showed that teaching was the
most frequent choice of Bryn
Mawr graduates holding A.B.’s,
| M.A.’s,. or Ph.D.’s.
Miss McBride Speaks
At Graduation
Exercises
Bachelor of Arts degrees were
conferred on 124 members of the
Class of 1955 at Bryn Mawr’s 67th

Goodbye And Good Luck
To the Class of 1955—goodbye and good luck. We can-
nét “evaluate” your college education for you—to-: tell you
what it has meant to you or what it should have meant to
you. An education is an individual affair, which is not sum-
med up in statistics, or averages, or newspaper editorals.
What we sincerely hope is that your degree does not mark
the “beginning” of life, or the “end” of life, but a step to new
and even more worthwhile experiences than you received at
Bryn Mawr.
Time For A Change
After a period of experimentation and “agonizing re-
appraisal,” and after listening to a great many criticisms and
a number of compliments, the News has reached the decision
to make a change in its policy and journalistic style.
This change, although still in the planning stage, is the.
result of a great deal of thoughtful consideration—the intent
of which is to publish the best possible paper on the Bryn
Mawr campus.
We feel a newspaper’s ultimate value can only be judged
in terms of its effect on and role in its present surroundings.
Whatever value it may have as an historical record, or as
a means of reporting events to “outsiders” can only be sec-
ondary.
With this in mind, we have surveyed the situation and
come up with some not-too-astounding conclusions. The first
of these is that any weekly newspaper on a small campus
faces the.very real problem of a shortage of “news.” Unlike
a large university, a smaller campus naturally has less news
in the first place, and what there is travels more quickly and
thoroughly. A weekly newspaper finds itself behind the
times—rather than printing “scoops,” it often merely sums
up what everyone already knows.
The second conclusion is that at Bryn Mawr the problem
is aggravated by the fact that most activities and campus
interest in the activities are even more limited than else-
where. We feel that this in truth is a “thinking rather than
doing” campus. What Bryn:Mawrters think about is open
to debate—but at least the potential for constructive and
critical thinking is very much alive. It is by presenting the
opinions of a number of students, hoping at the same time
to arouse interest in those who have no opinions on certain
subjects, that we feel the News can become an exciting and
* valuable—if not perfect—publication.
What we plan to do next year is to greatly increase crit-
ical writing in the paper.
umns such articles as theatre and book reviews, comments
on the political scene, random opinions.on anything of inter-
est to the college community. We hope, perhaps once a month,
to devdte two pages of an issue to the discussion—by stu-
dents and professors—of some problem pertinent to Bryn
Mawr, for instance, its educational system, or social orente
ization.
~~ ~What will these additions replace? Certainly the cover-
age of a great number of spdeches on campus, although we|
hope to increase the scope of so-called “advances” on-speak-
ers. Certinly not the reviews of plays, musical events, news
of interest to the campus that can be reported best and most
completely through the newspaper.
- These plans are of course tentative. They are aims, and
may not be immediate achievements. But we did not want|
_ to end the college year with a summation of any past achieve-|
3 -when we would rather point with enthusiasm and an-|
ciation tothe ming fal.
We hope to have as regular col-

Letters to the Editor
WBMC Manager Announces Next Year’s Plans;
Includes Wiring Of Pems, Rock, And Denbigh
To all those interested in listen-
ing to the radio:
How many students at Bryn
Mawr have listened to WBMC this
year? Unfortunately very few.
But the staff of the radio station
has continued with its admirable
work; broadcasting a large variety
of programs in the. traditional
high standard of our station. It
has been owing to a number of
faults in our wiring system that
much of the campus has not been
able to listen in to us.
Since we have been able to lo-
cate these faults, next fall during
Freshman week and the following
week-ends, with the kind help of
Haverford College, we are plan-
ning to rectify these. By the time
that College opens, Pembroke East
and West, Rockefeller and Denbigh
should be able to tune in to 580
with good results. Then if the
weather is still like this, don’t be
surprised to see us digging our
way from Denbigh to Merion the
next weekend! It seems likely that
if our finances are good we shall
be able to reach Radnor by the end
of the year.
With the promise of a good lis-
tening audience I sincerely hope
that hext year we shall be seeing
all our old staff members, and a
large number of new ones.. Every-
one is welcome whether she has
had experience or not. We should’
be very pleased, if you feel that
you do not have time to join the
staff, that you make some sugges-
tions about what you would like to
hear at 580 on your AM dial.
With very best wishes from the
Board of WBMC for a wonderful
summer.
Yours sincerely, -
Elizabeth B. Thomas,
Station Manager.
ltalian Movie ‘Romeo And Juliet’
“Exquisitely’’ Done; Acting Superb
Renato Castellani, with his di-
rection of the Italian version of
“Romeo and Juliet,” has created a
show with unlimited appeal for the
twentieth century audience.
Awarded the grand prize at the
Venice Film Festiva] this year, the
movie is a masterpiece of exquis-
ite detail and glowing splendor.
Although lacking many of
Shakespeare’s immortal lines, the
film moved so briskly that the
omissions were more than made up
for. Most notable of the lines left
out was Mercutio’s famous “Queen
Mab” speech, a modification which
the English writers particularly
criticized.
Made in Veroma and Venice the
movie has hardly been equaled for
sheer spectacle. The authentic set-
tings in the ancient monastery on
the island of San Francisca del De-
serto near Venice and in the Col-
onnade of Verona’s San Zeno Mag-
giore Church help particularly to
bring the three-hundred-and-fifty-
year-old tragedy to life. The cos-
tumes were near perfection, and in
the ballroom scene Julia stood out
beautifally in her white satin gown
in contrast with the red dresses of
the other women.
All of the principals were little-
known English actors. Susan Shen-
tall played Juliet and Laurence
Harvey, Romeo. Apart the» were
good; together they were magnifi-
cent.
Susan looked just young enough
for the part of Juliet. Her plati-
num blond hair and sweet. face
gave the desired effect of “sweet
innocence,” while her acting re-
vealed an amazing feeling for deep
emotional expression.
Laurence was a clever, amorous
and tragic Romeo. He was clever
in the ballroom scene, which was
tastefully done, when he met Ju-
liet. He could not have been more
amorous on the balcony and the
tragic suicide scene had the effect
of completing his character.
The supporting actors all did)
their jobs well. Especially notable
was the portrayal of Friar Lau-
rence.
Trueblood Speaks
The Rev. Mr. Trueblood spoke on
“Prudence Is Not a Christian Vir-
tue” at Baccalaureate Service Sun-
day night in Goodhart. Mr. True-
blood is Chief of Religious Infor-
mation of the United States Infor-
mation Agency.
The Rt. Revs Walter H. Gray,
Bishop of the Diocese of Connecti-
cut, delivered the prayer at Com-
mencement. ?
Life Of Alaskan
Indians Pictured
In Photo Exhibit
An exhibit of the photographs
taken on the ethnological and ar-
cheological fields trips to Yakuta
Alaska is now being shown on the
second floor of the library. These
pictures were taken in the summer
of 1939 and 1952 and in the winter
and spring of 1954.
Among. the most. striking pic-
tures “in the exhibit were those of
the snow covered Alaskan land-
scapes. Also interesting are the
pictures of the natives and their
children, some in native and some
in European dress.
This settlement on the Guld
Coast of Alaska is the home of the
Tlinglit Indians. 250 live there
now, descendants of 600 ancestors
who form the northernmost settle-
ment of the tribe. Pictures of In-
dian masks, art, and clothes show
the life and culture of these In-
dians.
Society was changed by the in-
troduction of a salmon cannery /in
1902. The operations of salmon
fishing and the salmon cannery are
shown in these pictures. A picture
of a member of the expedition fish-
ing for seaweed is included, with a
caption which assures the viewer
that it tastes quite good when eat-
en mixed with salmon eggs.
These Indians are now a back-
water people, poor and unable eith-
er to plan for the future or to re-
turn to the happy days of the last
century.

With musical as-
|sistance from their classmates,
several of the seniors presented
skits in front of Taylor, Dalton,
the gym, and the library, depicting
various aspects of their Bryn
Mawr, careers.
VS,
On Taylor steps, Elaine Alter,
| wearing a bathrobe and carrying a
towel and flashlight, described sev-
eral notable events of the past
year which were ably pantomimed
by Sue. Hiss and Ellie Small.
Among the highlights were the ad-
vent of the inch worms on campus,
the institution of an academic hon-
or system, “emergency. doubles,”
the closing of the. Penn House,
campus marriages, and no straw-
berries at May Day breakfast.
Perched on a window at Dalton
were Maddie de Ropp, Bobbie
Borneman, and Eva Schur. Wear-
ing raincoats and wielding mops,
they described the results of a gi-
gantic flood in Dalton. Their tale
of woe~was set to the tune of
“Noah’s Ark.”
Fair Lady Saved
In front of the gym, Catie Rodg-
ers and Chris Fischer presented
the melodrama, “Fair Lady Saved
in One Scene.” Catie received a por-
tant saying “help” from Chris, who
was marooned on top of the gym,
unable to pass her swimming test
and gain a degree. Gallant Catie
supplied her with a sheepskin, and
then accepted her invitation to
“Come up and see me sometime.”
The problem of filling the two
empty niches above the library
door was next considered by Sue
Lucas and Lyte Mitchell. While
Sue read their qualifications, Lyte
impersonated in turn Mr. Ferrater-
MacGregor, Mrs. Manning (who
has “droned on for many years”),
Mr. Sprague (a green lampshade
| over his head), Mr. Werner Skert-
| off, and Mrs. Sprague on a bicycle.
It was finally decided that only
| Miss McBride would fill the bill.

‘Counterpoint Contains “Extensive
Selection” of Poetry and Stories
especially contributed
by Gail Ames, ’55
The Spring Counterpoint pre-
sents a varied and extensive selec-
tion of poetry and short stories in
an. attractively-covered issue. It
is especially interesting to be able
to read the prize stories and poems,
but the editorial board has not
limited itself to the presentation
of writing already recognized, but
has chosen, to its advantage, sev-
eral experimental. pieces.
Stories. Excellent
The two stories by Donnie
Brown are excellently styled with
good management of detail, and
accurate, sensitive description of
the natural beauty of the tropical
landscape, with a minimum. of plot.
“Car'line” comes across as a more
successful story than “A Mussel
for a Dry Stone” owing to the
caréful and convincing description
of the three children dawdling with
a bottle of soda pop ‘for their
grandmother.
“Banana Bark,” by Nancy Fuh-
rer, takes as theme the temptation
of man and retribution of the gods
against those who do not observe
their religious commandments—in
this case; the dietary restrictions
of a Roman Catholic husband dur-
ing Lent, and his Indian wife,
whose priestly ancestors were for-
bidden to eat the bark of the ba-
nana tree, at the pain of becoming.
changed into leopards. The myth-,
ica] elements of the plot are not
balanced by the rather haphazard
characterization of husband and
wife, though the devices. used at
the beginning to signal the wife’s
transformation are effective.
The two poems done by Connie
Horton, one untitled, the other
“Meditation, While Looking at th
City on a Blue Evening,” are well
phrased, and are enriched by sharp’
images describing the evening. In:
“Meditation,” the language is par
ticularly memorable and_ phrases:
like “long-armed mind” are strik-,
ing.
Japanese Marriages
“A Farewell,” by Asako Tanaka,
deals with the subject of arranged
marriages in Japan. The first per-
son narrative is generally well-
handled with some good bits of
mixed emotion well-expressed::
“One must compromise. at some’
point some time in one’s life, and
expect an even better result, prob-
ably.” Told simply, the story suf-
fers from an occasional awkward-
ness, but ‘is a fairly convincing
portrayal: of a young girl with a
“big question about marriage.”
Using a pictorial device in line
arrangement, Mary Lou Kemp has
succeeded in “The Spire” to man-
age the short, cliped line well, and
her unusual choice of words cre-
ates vivid imagery.
“Gilda and the Three Execu-
tives,” by “Littr die Miest,” is a
clever parody on the story of the
three little bears, here in an indus-
trial setting. The children’s-story
tone is maintained throughout,
making this an extremely funny
|| story.
“Josephine Elopse,” ‘by Anne
Hobson, is a neat sketch of a
young girl and her maid planning
an elopement that never comes off.
In spite of the realistic dialogue
and careful attention to character-
ization the subject matter seerfis a
bit too hackneyed, so that even this
original treatment does not stand
up well.
Hilda Enos in “Parmenides” has
included some very amusing con-
versation of the poet versus the
the poet’s view, distorts the actu-
ally changeable universe for his
own purposes.
Little Boy Subject
In “The Terror,” Sue Cotton has
taken a rich little boy with a pre-
cocious imagination and not many
friends as her subject. While the
ending is both surprising and
plausible, the mass of the story did
not command the interest of this
reader, perhaps because the child’s
point of view has often an adult
ring to it.
Patty Ferguson’s very fine story,
At «The Christ Room,” concerns a
child’s betrayal of her friend. The
| three little girls are described with
such depth that all stand out as
individuals. The story uses a
“house” made of dogwood trees as
a means of showing the various
personalities of Lawson, sensitive
and introspective; Bertha, bump-
tious and callous; and Mary who is
dominated by her friends and
changes her loyalty from one to
| the other.
Charlotte Smith’s “About Miss
Tilney” is an extremely well-han-
dled and complicated description of
the confused state of mind of Miss
Tilney, who rebels from her ‘Eng-
lish-walking-shoe world, especially
from her bigoted friend Mabel, by
going to the movies and relaxing
her attitude about men; the story
is reminiscent of Katharine Mans-
field’s “Miss Brill,” except that the
epiphany of Miss Tilney is one of
joy rather than despair. In regard
to careful plot construction and
deep analysis of characters, this
story rates especially high.
Justine Polier Speaks On Juvenile j
Delinquency And “Troubled World”
The Honorable Justine Wise
Polier, Justice of the Domestic Re-
lations Court of New York City,
spoke at Bryn Mawr on May 21.
Judge Polier spoke on “Troubled
Children in,a Troubled World,” the
anniversary speech of the Social
Economy Department’s fortieth an-
niversary.
Social Viewpoint Needed
Judge Polier stated that harsh
treatment would not solve the
problem of juvenile delinquency.
She added that public criticism of
“coddling criminals” had forced
many social liberals today into a
compromising position on the ques-
tion of how to treat delinquents.
She noted that_the problem cannot
be'svlved from a legal standpoint,
but rather from the social view-
point of “how has society forced
tour youngsters to become delin-
quent ?” ‘
On this point, Judge Polier ap-
pealed to social workers to “get
closer” to the, people for whom
they were working. She noted that
today the tendency is to become
30 involved in-fund-raising cam-
paigns, etc., that the essential per-
sonal contact with people is lost,
Judge Polier traced the inter-re-
lationship between the wanes
times and» juvenile delinquen
noting that the present. neu
state ‘of the world has the’ offtet
of creating youthful law-breakers. .

Orchestra Plans.
Concerts, Recitals
In ‘the last meeting of the year,
the orchestra committee made sev-
eral plans for the coming year.
These included the long awaited
plans for concerts in the Cloisters.
There will be two in the fall and
two in the spring, on Saturday
nights at 8.30. Although the ac-
tual program has not yet been de-
cided, tentative pieces will be
Schubert’s Fifth Symphony, and
Douglas Moore’s “Music for Out-
of-Doors.” It is also hoped that
certain of the Classical composers,
who wrote much chamber music
for the open air, will be heard as
well,
Original Compositions
There will be the two usual win-
ter concerts, including this year,
Dr. Reese hopes, some original
compositions by . Haverford and
Bryn Mawr students.
A second innovation will be stu-
dent recitals, fortnightly, on Sun-
day afternoons from 5 to 6 p.m.
There is little chance for the mu-
sic student- who plays a non-or-
chestral instrument, or who spe-
cializes in voicéf'to get a chance to
perform, and he is therefore apt to
lose much of the vital drive neces-
sary for progress. The purpose of
these programs is to give experi-
ence, but not with so much empha-
sis on technical perfection, that is
usually required for public per-|
formances. The hour program may
be divided up between several peo-
ple, or center around a chamber
group; the division, and choice of
program will be entirely up to the
performers.
