Ferrater-Mora Lecture

ever, is just as difficult ‘to pin
down as philosophic methods and
conclusions. Since the .issues are
always so fundamental that con-
clusions involve unprovable as-
sumptions, each philosopher sees
every other philosopher ‘as his mis-
vuided enemy.

Such a situation, said Mr. Fer-
rator Mora, is inherent in philoso-
phy, as testified by the large num-
ber of definitions of philosophy in
western philosophical . history. In
the past, however, a_ sort of
gentlemen’s agreement existed,
between conflicting schools, not to
argue over goals and materials.
Thus philosophy was able to play
the role of queen of the sciences.
But then began the division which
has continued to the present, ex-
cept for the temporary reunifica-
tion effected by Kant. Nineteenth
century philosophy was in a situa-
tion similar to today’s, with the
exception that we no longer hope
for reunion, having reached, in
Mr. Ferrater Mora’s opinion, the
furthest limit of anarchy in the
movement. of philosophical sys-

’ tems.

ism, Logical Positivism, Intellectu-

Materialism, Solipecism — the
schools in contemporary philosophy
are overwhelmingly numerous, di-
vided ‘among themselves and

against each other, leading to the
conclusion only that “in -contem-
thing can happen.” Mr. Ferrater
Mora cited two groups which have
resisted internal division more
than others—the Marxists and the
Neo-Scholastics. The greater de-
gree of internal unification and
self-preservation of these two,
however, he attributes to their pre-
occupation with extra-philosophi-
cal—for example, political and so-
cial — considerations. Philosophy
has thus turned from the study of
great problems to a “fastidious”
survey of minutiae. Contemporary
philosophic literature abounds in
cases, in a “return to the con-



The Bryn Mawr hockey teams
made a considerably better show-
ing yesterday afternoon on their
own field than they had the pre-
vious week at Swarthmore, as the
j.v.’s romped to a 4-0 win and the
varsity struggled to a 1-1-tie. The
improvement might have been due
to the extra cheer afforded by Bryn
Mawr’s wearing red tunics, since
Chestnut Hill’s pale yellow ones
would not afford much contrast
with our usual dingy gold ones.

But a more scientific: reason for
the j.v.s’ success lay in the fact
that they played an excellent and
very fast game. A more vital rea-
son was that we made four goals,
two of which. were contributed. by
Polly Merrill, one by Louise Mun-
son, and another by Abbie Trafford
in the second half.

The varsity game was much less
wide-open, a back-and-forth, hard-
fought contest which showed
spurts of really fine playing and
occasionally degenerated into
what looked to be athletic-style
bickering. Edie Murphy scored the

Hockey Report °
impressive half-time outlook, but
that lasted only until the Chestnut
Hill right inner made a scoring
dash in the second half.

With the score tide both teams
made concentrated efforts to make
the extra tally that would certainly
mean a win with time running out,
but despite frenzied attempts near
the end, with Bryn Mawr doing

most of the threatening, neither
team could overcome the tie, which
isa-very sporty result when it



comes to discussing things over
postgame punch and cookies, but
isn’t half so nice as a win on the
record.

Bryn Mawr’s last chance for
glory on the hockey field for this
season will be next Tuesday when
they play Rosemont’ here at 4:00.
Several members of the team in-
dicated that an enthusiastic (well,

at least smiling crowd of cheerers
would be a great help in trying
to get that last win.
