Arts Night Show Draws Large Crowds
Merry Spirit Pervades Varied Program
By Martha Bridge
Arts Night drew a large and re-
sponsive audience to Skinner
Workshop last Friday ‘evening.
‘ynere was a good-natured, holiday
air about the whole program, and
everyone seemed to be enjoying
nimself thoroughly. Arts Night,
in spite of its formidable title, suc-
ceéaed in being an evening of en-
tertainment,
There is, however, a certain pur-
pose implied by~ that formidable
title, and this was completely ig-
nored in the unfortunate act which
was chosen to, begin the program.
‘the Rafia-Mafia Italian Street
Band, an odd assortment of a bal-
loon man, a “co-ordinating accor-
dionist,” a violinist, two guitarists,
and three street singers, was em-
barrassingly out-of-place on the
Arts Night program. It was little
more than an excuse for Isabel
Kliegman,...an..amazingly....accom--
plished torch-singer, to cut loose
with “St. Louis Woman” and “Ba-
sin Street Blues.” It is difficult to
understand just what these songs
had to do with an Italian street
band, or why Miss Kliegman’s tal-
ents could not have been displayed
in a less absurd and haphazard
framework. Even the amusing
“Jtalian” duet sung to Miss Klieg-
Panel Gives Report
On Size Of College
The faculty, graduate student
and undergraduate reports on the
size of the college were read for
the benefit of the alumnae by @
panel consisting of Mr. Ernst Ber-
liner, professor of chemistry, Jane
Cauvel of the Graduate School, and
Jane Keator, undergraduate repre-
sentative, and presided over by
Mrs. Marshall, Dean of the College.
The consensus of opinion was that
Bryn Mawr has a moral responsi-
pility to increase and that it should
do so, on the condition of fulfilling
certain requirements,
Mrs. Marshall spoke of the prob-
lems, by now familiar to every-
body, caused by the steadily in-
creasing population and its effect
on colleges througout the country.
Mr. Berliner presented the fac-
ulty report, gathered from ques-
tionnaires filled out by the faculty,
which favored a 100% “iticrease in
enrollment if certain . conditions
were fulfilled that maintained
teaching quality and academic life
for the students, Specific condi-
tions were: the completion of the
new science center, a new 60-stu-
dent dormitory, a faculty and staff
increase retaining the quality and
student-faculty ratio, and a survey
of other office, classroom, library, |.
and athletic needs.
Jane Keator gave the undergrad-
tionnaires recently filled out by
the students. Over half the stu-
dent body felt that Bryn Mawr
should increase by the 100% recom-
mended by the faculty on con-
dition that the same standards and
faculty-student ratio be retained.
The Graduate School’s point of
view was presented by Jane Cau-
vel. It\was gathered from inform-
al discussions and therefore not
completely. representative. They
felt that a 10 % increase would.af-
fect them only so far as «library
space was concerned. Fear of set-
ting the precedent of admitting
more and more students was the
main reservation.
mapeby..Jim Moody and Paul Hodge
could not redeem the Rafia-Matia
ensemble. It was all pretty silly.
in tact, it was painfully reminis-}
vent ofthe worst of television’s ||
aimaceur vaudeville hours.
Next on the program was Anne
Hobson’s one-act play, “The Miss-
amusing portrait of two poor b
eminentiy respectable Southern la-
dies fignting desperately against
the forces ot progress—in the per-
son of a new minister. Ably as-
sisted by Benita Bendon, Mimi Gi-
soil and Gerald Goodman, Miss
Hobson played her own Miss Fan-
ny with warmth and humor, roll-
ing’ her eyes expressively, presid-
ing over the tea table with venom-
ous courtesy, and fluttering about
the stage in that incredible blue
costume already familiar to lovers
ot the Titmouse! Praise is due to
Rabbit. MacVeagh.-for--her~skillful
direction and to the stage crew for
its cheerful and appropriate set.
During the intermission which
followed “The Misses Anderson,”
the audience was free to inspect
es Anderson,” a sympathetic ana
the exhibit of paintings by Fritz
Janschka and students. It was a
bit difficult to get a satisfactory
view of the exhibit because of the
limited space between the walls
and the rows of seats, but those in
the audience who managed to
squeeze their way around the
Workshop were rewarded by close
inspection of several fascinating
pictures. This reviewer was par-
ticularly impressed by a mosaic-
like composition made up of what
seemed to be- machines of some
sort but proved to be finely detail-
ed biological structures.
The audience returned to their
seats to hear original modern mad-
rigals and recorder music, perform-
ed by Marion Perret, Nancy Fair-
bank, Ruth Simpson, Betty Brack-
ett, Natalie Starr, Laura Rockefel-
ler and Donna Cochrane. Dressed as
Elizabethan boys, the group sang
Helen Rhinelander’s “My Phyllis”
and Tawn Stokes’ “My Love Will
Still Be Mine,” both conventional
and pleasant madrigals.
Arts Night ended with an orig-
inal modern dance, “Hoodoo Voo-
doo?” choreographed by Leora Lu-
ders. To the sound of an eerie and
wailing Calypso record, the danc-
ers enacted the primitive ceremony
of exorcizing demons from those
considered to be possessed. Mrs.
Arthur Dudden was striking and
wild-eyed as the woman possessed
by the evil spirit, and Leora Lu-
ders was sinuous and commanding
as the chief medicine man, and the
ensemble was talented and well-re-
hearsed.

News To Conduct
“Gallup Poll’ Here
The College News is joining Gal-
lup in the public opinion research
field. Monday, April 30, the Alli-
ance Representatives in each hall
will distribute the News poll on
political personalities and issues.
The poll will be collected on May
,
Now, before the campaign is un-
der ‘way, the News is interested in
finding out and publishing findings
on what people think of Eisenhow-
er, Nixon, “fifth amendment” Com-
munists, and ‘Dulles’ foreign policy.
The college paper will devote
page three of the May 9 issue to
publishing the results of these and
18 other questions.
If campus response is complete
the results will be interesting in
themselves, as well as in compari-
son with national figures and pre-
vious campus results.
With the News poll, Alliante is
planning to register the students
on campus in political parties; they
are also interested in discovering
who is interested in doing active
work with her party next Novem-
ber.
The Poll will be collected on
‘Wednesday, May 2 by the Alliance
representative in each hall.

President Kath-
L. Lanin Feature
At Junior Prom
by Liz Rennolds
A few weeks ago The College
News published an article quoting
the Junior Prom Committee as
striving for the “perfect Bryn
Mawr dance”, ,
Saturday night told the tale.
In true “Primavera” style, the
College Gym was decorated with
paste] streamers, posters, and even
cakes. Added to this was Lester
Lanin’s dance band which provided
excellent (though sometimes a lit-
tle too speedy) music.
Hats were enjoyed by all. All,
that is, who managed to obtain
them by Lanin’s usual “reach and
yell” method.
Already “conditioned” by the
outstanding Oklahoma!, Bryn
Mawr girls and their dates came
to the dance able to enjoy it rath-
er than pull it apart.
(Incidentally, very few decora-
tions were torn away).
All in all, the Prom Committee
is to be congratulated on a suc-
cessful attempt at “the perfect’.
The idea of substituting quality
for quantity, so to speak, is good.
Entertainment was getting a little
one-sided. However, it definitely
should not be excluded forever
from Bryn Mawr dances.
__Comments.... varied:—-“I4—seems*
more like a real- college; dance!”
“Wasn’t that music fabulous?
‘Just absolutely fabulous?”
...-tbut suppose you don’t
Mambo, Tango, or jitterbug?”
_ “Learn!”
“I missed the Octangle.”

By Judy Mellow
An earlier resolution on the part
of this reviewer not to approach
Oklahoma! with a critical eye, has
given way to a decision -to view
it very critically, and to point out |
every place that the show fell
down. :
The result is the same: Okla-
homa! deserves nothing but praise.
The Maids and Porters outdid
themselves this year in a show for
which they had not only the voices,
but also the ability to put their
parts across. They seemed to be
enjoying the show as much as the
audience, and this was no small
amount: °
Louise Jones as Aunt Eller was
perfectly charming-in--her~roleof
knowing all about young love ‘and
its eccentricities. As Curly and
Laurey, Al Mackey and Florence
Wilson could hardly be better cast.
Both have delightful voices (though
it’s doubtful whether anything
could detract from the wonderful
music of Oklahoma!) They sang
and: acted equally well, and had the
added attraction of looking the
parts of the romantic hero and
heroine.
Odell Brown was singularly un-
attractive as Jud Fry, as the part
intended him to be. He was the
closest thing to a villain the show
had to offer, and he produced some
fine acting, particularly in the last
act, where he did a remarkable job
of being knocked down—something
that is very difficult on the stage.
Hilarious Triangle
The hilarious triangle of Will,
Ado Annie, and Ali Hakim was one
of the high points of the show.
Edward Dudley, who played Will,
sings very well; Evalin Johnson
(Ado Annie), can put across a song
or a line go that her audience goes
into convulsions; and George Bry-
an as Ali can say a “Persian good-
bye” with amazing talent. Louis
White, as Annie’s gruff father, was
the crowning glory—he brought
laughs without saying a word,
merely by changing his expression.
The cast was supplemented by a
wonderful chorus. and dancers who
romped through every” scene with
wonderful enthusiasm and energy.
But the praise that goes to the
sophomores for directing and man-
aging the show cannot be less
glowing than that which the entire
cast deserves.
Sue Opstad is obviously a direc-
tor with a sense of humor and the
ability to put it into effect. -She
knows the timing that makes an
action funny on stage, and the en-
tire show bore out the opinion that
she“ Has an inborn sense of pace
that makes a show a success. Anne
Sprague, who directed the music,
was every bit as able, for the or-
chestral accompaniments were well
done, and the singing and piano ac-
companiment by ‘Leslfe Kandell
and Terry Elsom were well-timed.
Whatever arranging Anne and
Walter Lehmann did ‘was obviously
successful. :
It’s impossible to give credit to
all the sophomores. who worked on
| the production, but special mention
should be made of the excellent _
sets— the backdrop of the fields,
and the set used for Jud’s hut—
and of the smooth job of stage
managing. Not only was the cos-

WEEK-END POSTCRIPT: There
may be a Sophomore Carnival and
a Junior Show, but it all begins
with a Freshman float parade. Em-
ulating all the best float traditions,
each hall organized and awaited
that cerebral inspiration for a truly
origina] slant—the final éffect was
favorable. Although my view was
‘naturally limited because of my
own appearance as one of Last
House’s dwarfed intellects (the
theme was Snow White, with a
somewhat modified entourage) fin-
ished products, from Radnor’s “‘The
Seven Liberal Arts” to Rhoads’
winning “The Evolution of the Fe-
male Scholar,” were well thought-
out, well-executed.
Criticism: Cars add a profession-
al touch. Also, upperclass help
and participation is an _asset.....As
regards these matters, it would
seem advisable to make a general
ruling for “All or Nothing.”
That brings us to the featured
weekend event, Maids’ and Porters’
Oklahoma! Talent, spirit, enthus-
iasm: it was a gratifying achieve-
ment. Many orchids to Aunt El-
ler, Curly, Laurey, Ado Annie, Will
and all the singing panhandlers,
and sophomore directors, Sue Op-
stad and Anne Sprague. To a
freshman this is the most memor-
able college production from the
standpoint of the unselfish work
that went into it, and the commun-
ity spirit.
There must. be others who miss-
ed the Octangle and home-grown
singing at Saturday night’s “Pri-
mavera,” Aen: Lester Lanin
was the ostensible replacement in
this new no-entertainment-profes-
sional band dance policy, much of
the intimate party atmosphere was
lost. It will be interesting to hear
the genera] consensus on this is-
sue when future plans ‘are being
made. Many undoubtedly will
choose hats and Lanin over local
vocal and instrumental talent. I’m
just a conservative and an old Oc,.
tangle and Octet enthusiast from
Freshman Week.
What happened to Sophomore
Carnival?~.Someone must have
made off with the corn whiskey
from this here County Fair. Also
missing: crowds, enthusiasm, and
a sufficient number of original well-
run booths. If not for the auction
and Jim Moody as featured wit and
auctioneer, and the aed lemon- dacs 2
novelty refreshment .
Bad news. It seems the early
afternoon crowd quickly dispersed.
Soon only a few diehards remained,
as the winds and the crepe paper
started blowing harder. The after-
noon, potentially an all-college fun
time, was a disappointment.
CHAPEL SPEAKER
Chapel speaker Sunday, April 29,

A really, exciting College News
zame out once... honest! Forty
years ago, April 20, 1916, The Col-
ege News had some pretty scin-
iillating statements. For example:
“A ‘women’s Plattsburg’ has been
arranged by the League for Na-
sional Service to be run on strict-
ly military lines . . . Courses will
oe given in surgical bandaging,
cunning ambulance automobiles,
wigwagging (that’s what it says
here—wigwagging), camp cooking,
plain sewing, and American His-
tory (for women’s
military strategy, no doubt).”
course, it was a good idea; and it
probably produced just absolutely
dozens of generals,. or rather,
“generalles.”
In..the -weekly “Campus Notes”,
there was an announcement: “A.
Kern ’18, has broken the strength
test record, making a total of 564
points. Gladys Bryant ex-’17, held
the record last year, making: 558
points.” And to think that both
“A.” and “Gladys” were merely
sophomores when they were so
strong. In their prime, so _ to
speak?
All good things come in threes,
so here’s the last (minus any com-
ments, promise) :
The Bryn Mawr - Haverford

Levintow Of Clothing Workers’ Union
Points Out Role Of Labor In Politics
Common Room, April 19 —
“The American Labor. movement
is a job-conscious, not a class-con-
scious movement,” declared Mr. Da-
vid Levintow of the Amalgamat-
éd Clothing Workers’ Union, in his
Alliance-sponsored talk, “Labor
Looks to its Political Future”.
Mr. Levintow expressed his be-
lief that union members look to
their leaders for economic and job
guidance, and not for political
guidance: He referred to these
examples: the time John L. Lewis’
miners, who were generally quite
satisfied with their leader, disre-
garded his advice to vote for Wen-
dell Wilkie and returned Franklin
Roosevelt for another term; the
failure of Communists to achieve
dominance; and the complete fail-
use of the CLO and AL organi-
zations to bring about the defeat
of Robert A. Taft. “The ‘labor
vote’,” said Mr. Levintow, “is a fig-
ment of, the columnists’ imagina-
tion’.
Mr. Levintow then described la-
bor’s past and present activities in
the political sphere. In_ earlier
years, Labor spurred on the drive
Jvereny
for social legislation, for hour and
wage laws. More recently, it has
worked for social security benefits |
and government protection of the
right to organize. ‘On the debit

side”, labor unions have supported
certain immigration restrictions.
As an example of Labor’s inter-
est in politics, Mr. Levintow spoke
of the CIO’s old Political Action
Committee. PAC would seek to
make evaluations of the candidates
nominated by the existing parties,
by means of questionnaires and re-
search. Sometimes, PAC would
endorse a candidate, and sometimes
contribute funds. PAC contribu-
tions were collected from union
members on a voluntary basis and
were kept separate from regular
union funds.
PAC was also a “year-round
proposition”. People were urged
to register and newsletters were
published. Records as to how
Congressmen voted on labor legis-
lation were also published. Today,
PAC and the ANL’s political body
have merged to form COPE, the
Committee on Political Education.
The process 6f labor and political
education are this body’s most im-
portant task,
Mr. Levintow characterized La-
bor’s enemies as “a small group in
American business which has nev-
er accepted the principle of col-"
lective bargaining.” Mr. Levin-
tow also stated that while this is a
small group, its influence .is great,
as is seen by the activities of the
NAM and Chambers of Commerce.
The Taft-Hartley Act was criti-
cized by Mr. Levintow because it
had made “national issues” of mat-
ters that could be and had been
resolved at the bargaining table.
Mr. Levintow’s talk was followed
by a spirited question session. .

Arthur Dudden Analyzes Presidential
Issues With Aid Of Character Props
Dr. Dudden, assistant professor
of history, spoke on “Politicians,
Parties, and the Presidency” at
Current Events on Monday night.
In discussing the candidates, re-
ferred to as A, B, C, and D and
identified by golf balls, mortar-
board, coonskin cap and dollar bills,
Dr. Dudden gave a brief sketch of
their public appeal. A’s personal
popularity is very great—he is a
father-image to the American peo-
ple and engenders confidence in
both his following and his opposi-
tion. B is handicapped by his de-
feat in 1952 and his similarity to A
in a policy of moderation, but he
is a good speaker and understands
all sides of a question. C is mark-
ed by his common touch, lacking in
B, and his shrewd playing as the
underdog, but he fails to appeal to
his party officers. D is quiet about
his status as a candidate or he may
lose it, but he is able to deliver a
large block of votes.
The Republican party is in a‘
condition with plenty of funds but
it is threatened by a,farmer de-
fection and the loss of Southern

gain.the Northern Negro vote. The
Democrats are handicapped by a
sick treasury, the old split between
North and South and a lack of
unity behind one candidate.
The issues are emerging along
the lines of the Republican “peace
and. prosperity” slogan. Foreign
policy will probably be a major is-
sue with Democrat. accusations of
failing to keep pace with the So-
viet policy shifts. They also point
out that prosperity is not equally
distributed despite the Republican
claims and cite the plight of the
farmer. Desegregation and income
tax deduction are other issues.
The campaign promises to be a
noisy one. Ike is extremely pop-
ular and will be hard to beat unless
some catastrophic event happens.
If the Democrats sweep the South,
split the farm belt and gain one
populated Bastern—state they can
beat Ike, but it will be a minority
victory.

man, and Sara White.
Miss Luders did an expert job of
creating a dramatic pattern in the
dance, a building tenson and then
a joyous relaxation. There was no
aimless leaping about in gauze-
draped leotards. “Hoodoo Voodoo?”
was far superior to most amateur
modern dances both in plan and
execution; it was just the kind of
thing for which Arts Night exists.
