Vitality, Rather Than Pure Technique
Distinguishes Trio’s Chamber Music

By Martha Bridge

Goodhart’s
splendor was the setting for the
program of ‘chamber music given
last. Monday evening by the Trio
Concertante. Under the influence
of the Trio’s performance, the for-
mal surroundings were almost
transformed into’ the warm and
richly personal atmosphere which
such. musie requires.

This reviewer must, in all fair-
ness, admit to an enthusiasm for
chamber music—a genre often re-
‘garded as lacking in appeal for
any but the most rarified taste.
This enthusiasm is apt to lead to a
softening of the critic’s standards
of. performance. The Trio Con-
certante brought chamber, music to
Bryn Mawr; grateful feelings ‘may
obscure other considerations.

The program was a beautifully
balanced selection. The drama of
the: Brahms C Minor Trio (Op,
101), the colorful variety of the
Beethoven Variations on the song
“Ich bin der Schneider Kakadu
(Op. 121) and the romantic lilt of
the Trio in D Minor (Op. 49) by
~ Mendelssohn
the scope of the trio form. It is
hard to see how anyone could have
left this performance without feel-
ing the personal impact of this
kind of music.

Fond of Ensemble Playing

All three of the members of the
Trio Concertante, Werner Torka-
nowsky, violinist, Madeline Foley,
‘cellist, and Claude Frank, piano,
are at the same time obviously
fond of ensemble playing and pos-
sessed of considerable solo ability.
Anyone who watched them at clos-
er range during the workshops

‘might have sensed in each one a

definite musical personality. This
quality came out very clearly in
Monday evening’s concert, for the
ensemble, although not strictly
unified in a traditional sense, had
a certain vigor of interchange of
musical ideas among the players.
This made the Trio exciting to lis-
ten to and watch, even if some-
thing was lost in the way of pre-
cision and polish.

Mr. Torkanowsky’s playing was
outstanding for musical, rather
than technical, brilliance. In the
Mendelssohn trio, for example, he
caught the romantic appeal of the
melodie material in the first move-
ment, but did not seem quite at
home with more technical pass-
ages.’ Mr. Torkanowsky played
with ‘sensitivity rather than with
showmanship; he made the violin
sing, but often, when he was call-
ed upon to make it dance, his nim-
bleness was not equal to his spirit.

was particularly impressive in
the emotionally dramatic passages
in the Brahms trio. is:

Miss Foley
' Miss Foley has a strong tone,

‘considerable grace in phrasing, and

the sometimes ungrateful ‘task of

‘playing an instrument which, by

its very nature, does not always
eut through the more brilliant vi-
olin and-piano sounds. Miss Fo-
ley’s performance of the ’cello vari-
ation in the second movement of
the Beethoven was exemplary, and
throughout the program ‘she dis-

- played a really enviable pizzicato.

Mr. Frank did a solid job of
"holding the ensemble together—the

former in a trio for piano and

ping off cascades of notes, and
showed, as well, a great deal of
lyrical imagination. Mr. Frank
has, besides,‘an unusual ability to
communicate to the audience his
love of what he is playing.

Perhaps this is the best way to
summarize the effect of the Trio
Goncertante’s performance: the au-
dience was given the opportunity
to enter into the most intimate and
satisfying way of playing music.
By sensing that the Trio was hav-
ing. a kind of instrumental conver-
sation among its members, the lis-
tener was brought closer to the
wonderful mystery of musical com-
munication.

Bridge interviews”
Trio Of Musicians
By Martha Bridge

Anyone who happened to wander
into Goodhart last Monday aftei
noon may have seen two young
men ‘and a young woman busily
engaged in moving chairs, pushing
the great black Steinway, and-leap-
ing with nonchalant agility from
stage to auditorium. At alae
glance they may have appeared t
be members of College Theater
stage crew—as, indeed, they were
surrounded by evidences of that
tireless group’s activity—but fur-
ther discreet investigation revealed
that these three were the Trio Con-
certante, rehearsing for their eve-
ning performance.

As I tip-toed in, Mr. Torkanow-
sky, the violinist of the group, was
shouting criticisms from the back
of the hall, while Mr. Frank and
Miss Foley, at the piano and ’cello
(respectively) . played through a
passage—with Mr. Frank supply-
ing the missing violin part vocally.
Then Mr. Torkanowsky resumed
his place, and Miss Foley took over
his duties as conductor—and so on.
I gathered that they were under-
taking the thankless (and almost
fruitless) task of adapting their
seating arrangement to the acous-
tices of: Goodhart, for every few
minutes, at the suggestion of one
of the three, the group would move
forward, or to the side, or would
move the piano. The general ef-
fect was that of an extraordinarily
earnest game of musi¢al chairs.

Trio Rehearsal

Watching the Trio rehearse was
an exciting experience, evoking
memories of the delight one fags
at watching someone draw a pic-
ture or assemble a puzzle. There
was the same kind of gradual
growth of an object of art, so that
it ‘almost seems, by analogy, some-
thing organic and living. Here was
an unusual growth, however, for

the group was-molding-its-own-per=+

formance, and there was a remark-

_|able interplay of common purpose

and individual criticism in the self-
development. I was. impressed by
both the insight and the good hu-
mor of the ensemble.

I .was fortunate in having the

opportunity to meet the members

of the Trio Concertante the ‘next
day.

Although I had already observ-
ed them in rehearsal and at the’
concert, and had been charmed by
Mr. Frank’s happy gifts of expres-
sion during the Monday mornnig
workshop, I was not really prepar-
ed for so entertaining a conversa-

ARDMORE and BRYN MAWR, PA.,: WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1956

by ‘Rita Rubinstein

From all college campuses comes
front-page news of reactions to
the Hungarian revolt. Indeed,
these repotts of dramatic rallies
and appeals have a sobering effect
on the essentially academic nature

of student dailies and weeklies.
These papers have come out
strongly for other vital interna-
tional issues, but what is signifi-
cant is that in the Hungarian situ-
ation it is students who comprise
a major part of those dying in
quest of a freedom they have not
known.

Role of NSA

The role of NSA in the Hungar-

ian struggle was outlined in the
Sarah Lawrence Campus. “The
USNSA believes that academic
freedom and university: autonomy
are necessities which must cut
across national boundaries .. .
When racism, colonialism, dictator-
ship and the like have worked to
defeat the purpdse of universities,
USNSA has strongly voiced its
condemnation of these forms of or-
ganization.
_ “Recently students have played
a vital role in uprisings in Hun-
gary. Even before the initial
struggles the Hungarian youth or-
ganization (DISZ) had listed cer-
tain demands for reform in educa-
tion and had called upon the gov-
ernment to meet these demands,
which included complete freedom
of the press, abolition of the death
penalty, permission to make trips
to ‘Western countries and the im-
portation of Western literature.
Students also demanded an end to
compulsory courses in Marxism
and Leninism, and requested that
pre-war autonomy be restored to
Hungarian universities.

Asked for World Support

“The students of Hungary have
asked for world support in their
efforts to achieve freedom in edu-
cation . . . ‘to come to our help in
our endeavor to restore peace and
with it the independence of our
country, which are basic conditions
for cultural ‘work and research.’

“The role of the USNSA in this
struggle is to gather all possible
information on conditions and ac-
tivities pertinent to the matter at
hand, and to extend sympathy and
possible action to Hungarian stu-
dents, and to relieve them of their
suffering. Olive S. Gray, Interna-
tional vice-president left for
Vienna Nov. 8 to study and view
first hand, if possible, the role of
students in the uprisings. He will
then advise the USNSA as to ac-

students andthe welfare of uni-
versities.” ceaniaa

In the MIT paper, The Tech, was
the report of an “Action for Hun-
gary Rally”. Students were ex-
cused from certain classes. The
speaker’s name had not been releas-
ed at press time, but others tenta-
tively scheduled were Dr. Julius

‘Stratton, Chancellor of the Insti-

tute, and Dr. Bella Fabian who,
during his lifetime, had been im-
prisoned by Czarist Russia, Fascist
Germany, and the Communists.
“The ‘student assembly’ is being
sponsored by a group of students”, |
the paper continued, and “after the



rally, — of the ‘Committee For

ja Free Hungary’s”

petition will be
available for those who wish to
sign it.”

The following were the activities
of other New England colleges as
reported in The Wesleyan Argus.
“Harvard and Yale have had ral-
lies and established committees,
and the head of the Princeton
Aquinas Foundation has ’ yepri-
manded that university’s indiffer-
ence to the revolution.

“At Harvard a Committee for
Free Hungary was formed and urg-
ed aid to the point of sending vol-

resort to put a stop to Russian
aggression. Charging that ‘the
Soviet Union has not been chal-
lenged effectively for its aggres-
sion in Hungary, a band of some
80 Harvard undergraduates sought
to to arouse student support on
university campuses all over the
nation. :
Petitions to 700

“They sent petitions to 700 stu-
dent councils suggesting they or-
ganize Committees for Free Hun-
gary, collect money and clothes for
relief and send signed petitions to
President Eisenhower asking for
‘strong action in Hungary.’

“A student meeting at Harvard
featured a speech by Istvan Laszlo,
who had escaped from Hungary
13 days before. He was a leader
of the Union of Students in Hun-
gary and one of the instigators of
the revolution. In the fight against
the Russians, he commanded a unit
of 5,000 armed rebels...

“At Yale, contributions from in-
dividuals and Yale groups have ex-
ceeded the $5000 mark”, the Yale
Daily News reported. This money
will go to the World University
Service and other organizations
that specialize in helping displaced
Hungarian students.

“A Freedom Light was lit at
Yale by members of the adminis-
tration to ‘serve as a source of en-
couragement and inspiration to
freedom-seeking people everywhere
as well as'a reminder to America
to keep their freedom strong’.”

The recent drive to raise funds
for the Hungarian Student Emer-
gency Supplemental Appeal spon-
sored by World University Service
received an astonishingly quick
and enthusiastic response here at
Bryn Mawr. The total contribu-
tion ‘made by faculty and students
reached eleven hundred dollars

and was gratefully accepted by
WUS.

This money, conibined with siti
ftom ‘colleges across the nation
and from universities in other coun-
tries, will be used in four ways to

plement immediately the subsist-
ence relief now being given by
the Red Cross; to aid in all subsist-
ence once the Red Cross feeding
scheme-ends; to establish and pro-
vide for the operation of a special
student refugee camp where stud-

scholarship offers and resettlement
in Europe and the U. S. during the
future.

WUS is one of three organiza-
tions participating as an interna-
tional coordinating committee for
the student escapees in Vienna.
This committee, which is receiving
contributions.by cable, is working
with the voluntary agencies in Aus-
tria.

The gifts channeled through
WUS provide housing, transporta-
‘tion, clothing, miscellaneous arti-
cles, instruction material, and per-
sonnel, as well as insurance for
long - range planned assistance.

U, S. Immigration Policy

Hard-principled men who change their tune are an_end-_|

Jess source of amazement to us. . Most recently it has been
Representative Francis Walter who has felt the need to re-
examine, perhaps only momentarily, the strength of his con-
victions. Mr. Walter, who, as co-author of the McCarran-
Walter Act’ (Public Law 414) has frequently feared for the
nation’s ‘homogeneity” of population, now appears in the
forefront of those urging the easing of immigration restric-
tions for the entrance of a larger number of Hungarian refu-
gees. We are happy to see the Representative’s change of
mind. Weare only sorry that his new attitude is almost
solely the result of his recent on-the-scene experiences with
Soviet oppression of fleeing civilians. We can only hope

that Mr. Walter’s as well as all of Congress’ sympathies will
not stop: with the problem of Hungarian immigration but will

cause considerable reconsideration of the whole of U. S. im-

migration policy. cs

President Eisenhower has announced that the original
number of Hungarian refugees to arrive in the U. S. has
been’ raised from 5,000 to 21,500. U.S. admittance of
Hungarian refugees has been slow and troublesome, mainly
because of the blocs set up by the country’s immigration
law. The emergency Refugee Relief Act of 1953, due to ex-
pire December 31, and the “parole” provision of the McCar-
ran Act have been the measures invoked for the Hungarians’
admittance. The first is not part of basic law, the second
leaves the refugee with an indefinite status. Both were call-
ed upon as a matter of expediency. Neither is to be consid-
ered a beneficial precedent for future and similar situations.
Briefly, today’s refugees have not ben allowed to enter the
U.S. on a regular immigration basis. Why?

Because of the McCaran-Walter Act. Based on the dis-
criminatory national origins premise favoring Northern and
Western Europe, the Act, by its quota system; has always
worked against ~immigration from Southern and Eastern
Europe and other parts of the world. The present total.an-|
nual quota has been fixed at 154,657——-r 1/6 of 1% of the
population figures of the 1920 Census. This total figure is
absurd—the 1920 Census not only considered a population’
smaller than today’s; it also did not include the American
Indian and the Negro. Yet the authors of the Bill knew
that the 1920 Census as a base figure for a quota system
would favor a group obviously believed by them to be a better
class of citizens. The entire national origins premise has
been proven false anthropoligically and is unjust. Immigra-
tion to the U.S. cannot be wholly unlimited and certain re-
strictions should not concern themselves with a person’s

-

Yet if he national-origin quota system must be employ-
ed, as seems the case—what with the strong anti-immigra-
tion sentiment of a country itself made up of immigrants,
the figures used should at least be those of the last. Census
(1950). In addition, the present policy of letting unfilled
national quotas remain unused is detrimental both to us and



unused quotas has been frequently proposed but never achiev-
ed. Thus, when emergency legislation such as the Displaced
Persons Act permits the entrance of new immigrants, the
number admitted is mortgaged against the quota provided
for in the McCarran Act. Due to these circumstances, Hun-
garians are not allowed to immigrate until 1985, Latvians
until 2274, Greeks until. 2013, Estonians until 2946.
~The United States, at one time, welcomed immigrants.

“The McCararn-Walter Act and its supporters work on the

theory of keeping immigration to the very minimum. We

urge Congress to seek revision of a discriminatory and harm-
ful Act. In the present Hungarian case, we are indeed labor-




under a misapprehension if we think that it is we who
doing the Hungarians a favor by admitting them. In

than a month, a brave people have struck more boldly
nt in Communism than the past few years of incon-
erican cold - war propaganda. It is only fitting

00 little—that we show our gratitude to these

Pruett Speaks On
H-Bomb Problems

Noting that he is no longer cer-
tain that nuclear bomb tests should
cease, Mr. John Pruett, physics
professor, spoke on the hydrogen
bomb problem at Current Events
December 3.

There are, Mr. Pruett said, four
issues concerning the problem: the
moral, the political, the military,
and the health. The major health
issue concerns “fall-out,” of which
the greatest danger is Strontium
90, an element which loses only
half its radio-activity in forty
years,

In the explosion of larger nu-
clear bombs, radio-active debris,
including Stronium 90, rises into
the stratosphere as .a hot, vapor-
ous gas bubble. There it disperses
until it falls slowly—perhaps only
fifty per cent of the debris may
fall in a decade—over the entire
earth.

The most complete data on
Strontium 90 was found by the
Atomic ‘Energy Commission in its
very recent and extensive “Project
Sunlight.” After it has fallen,
there is no known way in which
Stronium 90 can be removed from
soil. It is transferred into the hu-
man body through food. After a
few generations, it may pfoduce
a genetic effect, but, more impor-
tant, it acts like calcium to enter
the bones where ‘its radio-activity
may work to destroy the bones,

By 1970, if there are no more
bomb tests, the average human will
have absorbed from past tests one
half of the amount of Strontium 90
he can hold safely. However, if
present tests continue and more
nations begin them, the \dahger
limit can be surpassed.

But, Mr. Pruett said, whatever
the health hazard, it must be bal-
fanced against the hazards of dis-|
continuing hydrogen bomb explo-
sions. Scientists may now be test-
ing to find a “clean” nuclear bomb,
which may be exploded without the
danger of Strontium fall-out or nu-
celar anti-aircraft weapons. The
two hazards, of health and of not
making -vital discoveries because
tests are discontinued, must be
weighed in any consideration of the
hydrogen bomb.

~ Movies:
Friendly Persuasion

By Jana Varlejs



Warm, home-spun humor, a re-
lief from the common | slapstick,
type, gives Friendly Persuasion a
charm which sets it apart from the
usual Hollywood “productions.”
This charm, however, is achieved
at the loss of forceful development
of theme. :

The story centers about a Quak-
er family faced with standing firm
on their pacifist convictions at the
cost of their home and lives, as

approaches their farm. The con-
flict in the film itself is well de-
veloped, but instead of conclusion,
contradiction is evident, and the
characters do not appear to have
been much affected by their ex-
periences. Everyone “lives happily

ever after,” an anti-climax which
is a little disappointing after a few
dramatic war scenes.
Nevertheless, a fairly even bal-
ance between comedy and attempt
at a more serious overtone is
achieved. At times the “friendly
persuasion” is quite obvious, dem-
onstrating the Quaker renunciation

As his wife, Dorothy McGuire,

Administration And

Varied Experience Of Jr. Year Abroad
Life Of An American In.

Paris Described By
Bryn Mawrters

By Lynn Deming

Bryn Mawr College has for many
years been a participant in the
Sweet Briar Junior Year Abroad
Program, which® sends students of
all major: men’s and women’s col-
leges to study for nine months at
a European University. By far the
most popular request. among the
growing portion of the. American
students who desire foreign study
is the University of Paris, where
History, Literature, Art, and Phi-
losophy majors can drink in the
benefits of the most famous school,
and the most talked-about city in
the world. Those Bryn Mawr stu-
dents whose academic interest and
proficiency in French have landed
them inthe foreign metropolis
have all sorts of things to say
about it, ~~ extremely enthusi-
astic.

First of all, American college
juniors.in.Paris. are treated to the
privilege of living within the close-
ly-knit nucleus of a French family,
where adjustment*is usually made
fairly easy by a selective ‘matching
of “foster-families” and the stu-
dents who board with them. (All
financial arrangements are made
by Sweet Briar College). Although
students have occasionally run into
clashes of incompatibility, the ma-
jority agree that this living plan
is one of the most exciting advan-
tages of their Junior Year Abroad,

The French language, of course,
is spoken almost eighteen hours a
day, both within the family, and at
all classes taken in the various
schools of the University of Paris.
Unfortunately, many students are
unqualified for the more. advanced
courses given at the Sorbonne,
while the programs designed there
for foreigners are generally not up
to par. As a result, most Ameri-
cans take courses at any of the
other outstanding schools, such as
the Institut Brittanique, the Insti-
tut d’Etudes Politiques, or the
Louvre.

However, academic adjustment is
perhaps more of a challenge than
social adaptation, for Americans
must learn to accept such facts as
that one of the world’s largest uni-
versities functions without publish-
ing any accurate catalogue of its
courses before they actually begin.
Complete independence in one’s
work, as well as complete indiffer-
ence on the part of professors as
to whether or not lectures are at-
tended, or work is completed, com-
plicate the situation. Grades may
even be given which in no way
take into account all the duly grad-
ed work done by a student through-
out the term (with the exception
of the final exam).

Yet perhaps one of the hardest
adjustments for an eager Ameri-
can student to make is acceptance
of the fact that everything worth-
while cannot be seen and done in
Paris in nine short months. Such
a realization probably accounts for
the large number of Junior Year
abroad students who try to get jobs

_and positions in Europe after grad-

Students Discuss

Mrs. Marshall Presents
Pros And Cons
Of Program

by Eleanor Winsor ©

In the vacillations of all sopho-‘ “
mores there must come a moment |

when Junior Year abroad seems
the certain answer to “sophomore
slump”. The wide variety of pro-
grams which can now be scheduled
has removed junior year from the
class of language majors’ special
privileges and has made the gen-
eral possibility additionally attract-
ive. “Yet,” says Dean Marshall,
“the values of the program are
purely individual and vary with
the student.”

Mrs. Marshall, as an undergrad-
uate at Smith, spent her own jun-
ior year in Spain and speaks en-
thusiastically of the broad and deep
experience—the opportunity of see-
ing a different way of life from a
definite viewpoint. Unlike’ the
drifting tourist, the junior year

student has a working job in the|-

country. For her, doors are open-

ed not -onty~ to everyday “lire but)

also to intellectual life and she
has the occasion to meet and’ work
with outstanding professors. In Ker
senior year at college she can
bring to her academic and social
life a breadth of experience, view-
point and a new contribution.

~ The arguments for remaining in
an American college are quite dif-
ferent, Courses offered to Ameri-
cans abroad are general and do
not give the same opportunity for
research and individual work as
advaneed courses in the major at
Bryn Mawr. The continuity of in-
tellectual experience is broken by
concentration upon different things
and there is a transition back to
college work as necessary as the
initial step in the opposite” direc-
tion.

Financially the junior year pro-
gram is more expensive than a
college year as trans-Atlantic pass-
age must be counted as extra. Fees
are the same as those of the col-
lege which sponsors the trip but ‘in
addition there are one or more
university vacations when the de-
lights of skiing in the Alps or bath-
ing on the Riviera are an extra ex-
pense.

what seems, back in .America, to
have: been only a beginning.

It must be admitted, however,
that all “retournees” cite Paris as
an expensive place in which to live,

in comparison with other European:

capitals. While the cost of living
is comparable to that in the Phila-
delphia area, it denies to the Amer-
ican student that very beneficial
exchange of currency which he can
enjoy in Germany or Italy. How-

ever, the dazzling abundance. of}

STRIFE Goes To A Darty: BMC
Smiles for Magazine Photographer



LIFE Magazine photographer Alfred Eisenstadt, shown
here at Pem West tea during his stay at Bryn Mawr on assign-

ment for LIFE’s
see below.

“American Woman” issue. For “full account”,

By Anna Kisselgoff

Once upon a time, when Lenry R. Huce was sitting in his castle
on 51st Street, before a sign on his sedan chair that said “CRIME-
STRIFE, Inc., publishers of MISFORTUNE”, he received” a” phone
call from Clare B., who was throwing a-little party at the Baths of
Caracalla in Rome, which are really just an imitation of New York’s
Penn Station.

“You listen to me, Lenry,” said Clare B., “you go right ahead
and put out an issue on the American Woman, you hear?!’

Lenry R. said yes dear and called in Alfred E.

“Kisie, old kid,” he said, “why dop’t you run right down to Bryn
Mawr and fill up four pages for December 24?”

Bisie said o.k. and did. ae

When Eisie stopped running \and got to Bryn Mawr, the Public
Relations Department, which is the most richly endowed department,
being second only to the Latin Department in tradition, came out to
meet him as did its chairman, the James Dean Professor of Press
Release. Everybody thought Eisie was a real nice guy even if he did
look like a professor. You must be very tired, said the James Dean
Professor of Press Release, may we take care of your Leica? LEisie
said yeah and everybody said wasn’t the Leica cute. Then they gave the
Leica a bone and let it run around.

Soon they took Eisie to his quarters on the window sill in Taylor
on the staircase between the first and second floors, where he spent
most of the next four days.

Eisie Feels He Is Being Watched

After the first day, Alfred (or Eisie) began to worry. I have the
feeling, he said to himself, that I am being watched. For some reason,
ae continued, I do not fit in. This is indeed very bad. The girls at
Bryn Mawr might suspect, although I don’t see how, that they are
being photographed. And if it is one thing STRIFE believes in, it is
he natural spontaneous candid photograph.

So Alfred solved the problem. He took off his tweed jacket. He
put on a blue sweatshirt. Now, he said, I will look like anybody else
at Bryn Mawr. I shall also get myself a green bookbag like Dr.
Sprague’s. Which he did, and after that not one girl at Bryn Mawr
noticed him when he crept. under the library desks with a@ light meter.

Alfred the Great roamed far and wide. One day as the Public
Relations Department was carrying him across campus, he saw a girl
climbing down into the manhole in front of Radnor Hall.

“My, my,” he said, “fancy meeting you.”

“Yes, fancy that—although you have made me pose in this spot
for three hours,” answered she.

“Ha ha,” said Eisie, “I take it you are going to play some subter-
ranean tennis?”

“As a matter of fact, no,” she said, “I am just going to my comp
conference.” And then she vanished,

“How spontaneous!”, exclaimed Eisie and took a picture of the
manhole.

Later Eisie went to a philosophy class because STRIFE is a family
magazine and you never can tell what the household pet will want to
read. The Bryn Mawr professor of philosophy spoke about many
things, including philosophy, and then he said: “Today I am giving
you an exam. Please answer the question ‘How many Angels can dance
on the head of a pin? ’ ”

This gave Alfred an idea: “I will see how many Bryn Mawr girls
can sit on top of Taylor Tower’s weather vane.” And that very day
Eisie took a picture of the Freshman Class Meeting atop Taylor’s
weather vane, which was facing North.

Next on the agenda was a visit to “Current Events” where the
world problems were being solved. LEisie did his job very well. In
+fact,—he_took.so many.CLOSE shots of the professor speaking, that
many began to believe the crisis was not in the Suez, but in’ ane ORE
mon Room.





Typical a Mawr Girl: Mopsie Fell

“And now,” announced Alfred, “I will take a spontaneous picture of
the typical Bryn Mawr girl.” Quite luckily, and of course, by chance,
there she was: the typical Bryn Mawr girl, Mopsie Fell, hanging up-
side down.from the almost perfect groined vault of Pem Arch, bidding
her date, Prince Rainier, goodnight. “Aha,” said Alfred. And Mopsie
Fell. :

Then came time for Eisie to mosey back home. The James Dean
etc. and everybody cried, but Eisie paid no heed and merely said he
hoped everyone at Bryn Mawr would subscribe to STRIFE so that he
could get paid for this job. And then he added, that if they didn’t,
Lenry R. would print the story on Harcum instead. Of course, this
was unthinkable and everybody said yes, yes; we shall subscribe, and

days and that certainly was not to be for nothing.

Mora Vs. Gilbert
In Lively Debate

Last Thursday night, in the Com-
mon Room, Mr. Ferrater-Mora, of
the philosophy department, and Mr.
Gilbert, of the history department,
in their debate about history and
the philosophy of history, spoke of
the respective roles pf the historian
and the philosopher.

Mr. Ferrater-Mora made two
criticisms of current historical
work, referring not to any histor-
ian in particular, but to historians
in general, or “the hypothetical his-
torian.” The first was that histor-
ians are “too cautious”: they con-
sider it their task to “describe
events as they are,” relying too
much on facts. Mr. Ferrater-Mora
stressed that facts vary in their
certainty and in their significance,
and that in certain instances ‘the
significance surpasses the fact. His
other criticism was that historians
are “too rash”: they tend to reduce
facts to patterns examined by psy-

ichologists and. sociologists; ands

speak of “historical law” without
examining its meaning.’ Mr. Fer-
rater-Mora suggested that as both
historians and philosophers are
“too rash and too cautious” the so-
lution for the dissension between
them. might lie in combining the
rashness of one with the caution of

|the other.

No Hypothetical Historian

Mr. Gilbert first remarked that
one cannot talk about “the hypo-
thetical historian,” but must con-
sider representative historians of
our age. He went on to say that
great historians are not guilty of
the “rashness” of dividing history
sharply into fields, and that the in-
clination to accept laws from other
fields touches upon the problem of
the position of history between the
social sciences and the humanities.
The purpose of the historian, how-
ever, is to present “the uniqueness
of the historical situation,” which
can stand out only after the other
‘patterns have been abstracted.

As to the question of reliance on
facts, Mr. Gilbert stressed that the
significance of facts depends upon
the problem which the historian is
investigating; it is not possible to
establish a general significance of
an event. The question of the
meaning of history is not the task
of the historian but that of the
philosopher.

There are two issues on which
Mr. Gilbert would like the philoso-
pher to provide the historian with
more information. . One is how the
philosopher expects the historian,
whom he attacks for unclear use of
terms and concepts, to use logical
language. The other is a reference
to historical relativism: to what
extent is it possible to understand
another period if we don’t have the
right to judge it according to our
own values?- The problem which
gives the historian an interest in
events of the past is usually one
which comes from a present situa-
tion which he is trying to clarify.
Mr. Gilbert considered that the phi-
losopher is dealing with the same
issues as the historian, but that
his views are too abstract and that

him.

In the general discussion which
followed, Mr. LeBlanc suggested
that a méthodology for history is
a-task which should be undertaken
jointly by philosophers and histor-
ians, taking into consideration the
merits of both.



The Freshman Class announc-
es the election of Betsy Emer-
son and Pie Pinckney as Repre-
sentatives to Self-Gov and Joan
Strell as Undergrad Rep. The
new A.A. reps are Nancy Du-
