Bryn Mawr-Haverford Revue Exhibits
Mixture Of “Ease And Awkwardness”
By Jean MacIntyre
In a college literary magazine
one learns to expect some very
good writing, some’ bad, and a good
deal that is neither one nor the
other. The current issue of the
Bryn Mawr-Haverford Revue runs
true to the pattern. It exhibits the
usual characteristics —the strong
influence of other writers, the mix-
ture of ease and awkwardness, and
the desire to appear ‘more mature
than is actually the case — which
are to be looked for among young
writers. When these tendencies are
overcome, the results are usually
more successful; when they are
taken to be evidence of great orig-
inality, the work suffers.
. Those who have overcome them
include D. MacNab Brown, whose
Necklace of Noah’s Arks has cap-
tured the behavior and the conver-
sation of children exceptionally
well. Miss Brown’s skill in devel-
oping Car’line and Jacob and her
subtly conveyed purpose make this
story the outstanding piece in the
collection. Nancy Dyer’s Adam
Daltry shows ability in her fore-
shadowing of the end throtgh the
episode of the calf, and compels the
reader to exercise his imagination
in referring back to the earlier
happening when he reaches the
end. Its faults are to be found in
technique, especially in clumsy
transitions and a lack of any time
sense, but these are minor in the
face of her conception and treat-
ment. Adam Daltry would be con-
siderably helped by lengthening so
as to balance the middle with the
earlier and later material, and also
to give Miss Dyer room for her
excellent detail, which in its pres-
ent state looks overdone beside the
poorer broad statements in her
connecting passages.
The exploration of the crazed or
unbalanced mind is presented in no
less than four stories. Of these,
Frank Conroy’s Checker Game ex-
ploits the sensational aspects of
mental illness. His study of the
crazed father does not measure up
to his perceptive treatment of the
little boy alone and with his moth-
er. Harvey Phillips’s The License
conveys the feeling of insanity, but
I wonder whether his stream-of-
consciousness technique might not
be more comprehensible to the mad
than to the sane. The influence of
the later Joyce is all too apparént,
but it does not appear to have ex-
tended beyond a surface resem-
blance. Paula Sutter’s glimpse into
a mediocre and vindictive woman
is well conceived and written, but
she does not entirely realize the
potential of her situation. It would
perhaps be better to have done this
in verse than in prose. Michael
Roloff’s Keith has a tantalizingly
hidden r@ason for his alcoholism,
while thé hypersensitive adolescent
Francois barely is motivated at a
fC . . e “White's Reception, |.
Steven Sieverts’s Colloquy, George
M. Anderson’s Carl, and Stephan
Chodorov’s The Splendor of the
Heart, all studies of adolescents
various ages, have an ease of
ing, for the most part, and a fin-
ished conception. It is difficult to
find what Mr. Sieverts is trying to
accomplish, since the two sides of
the conversation are pretty well in-
dependent. However, it is a sensi-
tive study of the late teens’ desire
- for difference and its expression in
the same way. The ending of Carl
does not seem to follow from the
free of technical difficulties. On the
whole, these four express their
characters well by means of action
and words rather than through
thought, and the results are better
than those gained by mental ex-
ploration.
It is unusual to find a play in-
cluded in-such a collection. Eve-
lyn de Baryshe’s A Play is realistic
in form and detail and obscure in
plot. and. characterization. These
are great faults in drama, since
any audience will miss many de-
tails that are essential to its com-
prehension. The dialogue is writ-
ten,.in straightforward, if not al-
ways conversational, sentences.
This play is full of ideas taken up
and dropped, and closes on a non-
sequitur line which the mother,
must drop out of character in or-
der to speak. The age of the
daughter is never clear, nor the
motivations of the adults other
than the mother.

the right direction, and one may
hope for more drama in the future.
On the whole, the prose of this

Theatre Group To
Produce 4 Plays
by Judy Mellow
At least four major productions
are tentatively planned by College
Theatre for next year. With a
permanent director, new. College
Theatre president Pat Moran feels
that this schedule, plus several
smaller productions will not be too
ambitious an undertaking.
Mr. Robert Butman who directed
this year’s three major productions,
will continue as director for the
College Theatre and the Haverford
Drama Club. The advantage of a
director who knows his actors,
technicians, and stages means that
each play can build upon the plays
before it. Pat believes that Mr.
Butman has proven this in the pro-
ductions this year.
While presenting a variety of
types of plays, Pat plans to con-
tinue the College Theatre tradi-
tion of presenting not just pleas-
ant entertainment, but plays of
real literary and dramatic value.
Tentatively, the major productions
will be a one-act play at Haver-
ford in October, a Shakespearean
comedy here Undergrad weekend,
a “serious .play” here in March,
and possibly a musical at Haver-
ford in the spring.
Plays of value will be most re-
warding, Pat feels, for both the
actors and the audience. In addi-
will be three smaller shows, stu-
dent-directed. An emphasis will
also be placed on experimental
theatre, and Pat hopes to hold act-
ing and production classes Friday
afternoons and Saturday mornings
in Skinner.
Pat’s own words sum up the es-
sence of her plans} “The purpose
of College Theatre is primarily
creative.. It is not only an outlet
for the-interests of a few, but it
demands an audience, and there-
fore has a responsibility to the au-
body of the story, but otherwise is
dience as well as to the actors.”

Jinty Myles And Harvey Phillips Command Admiration
In An Impressive Production Of ““Man And-Superman’’
The Bryn Mawr College Theatre
‘land the Haverford Drama Club
have come up with three joint sur-
prises this year; three very ambi-
tious productions. Much Ado About
Nothing, Trojan Women, and Man
and Superman have been not only
ambitious but also extremely ‘suc-
cessful. Our joint theatre groups
have finally received the inspiration
and knowledge of a permanent di-
rector, Mr. Robert Butman. The
clubs - have been able to use—Mr.
Butman’s ability to excellent ad-
vantage with the result that this
year their audiences have been
treated not just to plays, but to
real productions.
Bernard Shaw, even at his witti-
est, can be more than a little tedi-
ous on the stage. The Roberts Hall
production of Man and Superman,
however, conquered Shaw’s verbos-

igverford. stage is able to con-
me the impression of being nearly
half apron. This distinct advantage
allows the actors to play to the
audience with a force that is im-
possible from behind a proscenium
arch. The Man and Superman cast
had the audience in the palm of its
collective hand,
Harvey, Phillips in particular
took advantage of the assets of his
stage. He played Jack Tanner with
an enthusiasm which I am sure
would have delighted G.B.S. him-
self. Harvey does have a rather
unfortunate tendency to roar his
lines in the style of Lawrence Oliv-
ier. The role of Jack Tanner is a
series of satirically indignant
speeches, however, and Harvey,
with his excellent diction, used his
tendency to shout to good advan-
tage in enlivening his characteri-
ization. His compelling stage pres-
ence put him in absolute command
of both the stage and the audience.
Harvey seemed to enjoy himself
immensely in his role with the re-
sult that Jack Tanner become thor-
oughly convincing and thorough-
ly enjoyable to his audience.
Jinty Myles was delightful. The
role of Ann Whitefield is the most
difficult in the play, but Jinty mah-
aged to catch the spirit of Shaw’s
female Don Juan. She played the
charmingly hypocritical Ann with
subtle force. Her stage presence
was remarkable, and she made par-
ticularly good use of her eyes in
projecting her character. In fact,
she overwhelmed her audience as
completely as she overwhelmed
Jack Tanner.
Fritz Rencken looked wonderful
as Roebuck Ramsden, displaying
his pomposity with indignant vigor.
Andrew Miller’s Tavey was awfully
funny, and all the more effective
due to the actor’s lack of inhibition
on the stage. Both Fritz and An-
drew tended to force their charac-
ters, however, making them ridic-
ulous and out of proportion to the
tone of the play. E. B. White was
hilarious as Tanner’s—class. con-
scious chauffeur, ’Enry Straker.
His cockney accent was clear and
effective.
Susan Gold was convincing as
the invincible Violet. She display-
ed a fine sense of timing, partieu-
larly in her scene with Hector Ma-
lone, Sr. George Malko as Hector
Malone, Jr., was disappointing.
Shaw’s Americans are generally an
amusing combination of man-éf-
the-worldiness and gullibility. Un-

Remembrance Of Term Past
This marks the last regular issue-of-the News during
the school year and it is rather difficult to let this event go
by unnoticed. That the year has been an eventful one can
be measured in many ways and the News editors have their
favorite way—the large number of “juicy” editorial topics
topics that have been handed to us. ;
Politics have figured prominently in the news every-
where. The success of the new college election system was
a tribute to everyone who contributed to its formation. And

Most commendable, also, is the unusually fine calibre of
the College Theatre productions. The Ford Foundation
Grant, the Woodrow Wilson Conference, the visits of Messrs.
Kennedy and Fulbright—all are highlight of the year. And
Bryn Mawr itself has figured in the news nationally via the
unusual hobby of one of its students. ¥
Strawberries were reinstated in their rightful position
Off The Bookshelf
by Helen Sagmaster
Today, most novelists who are
considered “serious” have a well-
defined statement to make about:
some aspect of life, or more com-
monly, about Life ‘with a capital
L. Whether the novelist express-
es his ideas openly or obscurely,
the novel fairly glows with his
personality and his philosophy.
In this way, John’O’Hara’s Ten
North Frederick (Random House)
is refreshing. In the story of
Edith and Joseph Chapin, wealthy
and respectable citizens of. Gibbs-
ville, Penna., there is no dramatic
life’ which O’Hara may be pre-
senting here needs almost to be
supplied by the reader himself.
Both the Chapins are members
of the “best families.” They are
sensible, intelligent and honor-
able. Joseph Chapin is a quietly
successful lawyer, and for ‘a brief
period is quietly unsuccessful in
politics. Edith, an: aristocrat to
the hilt, is plain and reticent.
They are the parents of two chil-
dren, and their address on North
Frederick proclaims them a model
family of the upper class.
In their personal lives, the Cha-
pins are more striking. Although
perhaps no farther from: the “nor-
mal” than any other family, the
contrast with their position in
‘Gibbsville makes their private
shortcomings more noticeable.
Each is small in some way, limited
by vanity or possessiveness or love
or respectability. They are neith-

the author relates are told with
emphasis on the factual—what
was done and said, more than what
was thought. This multiplication
of details, as seen by Edith and
Joseph themselves, their daughter
n, their son Joby, or by some
outsider, makes the reader feel
that he. knows the Chapins better
than he would if he had been one
of them.
In the smooth, matter-of-fact
style, practically none of the auth-
or’s personality imposes _ itself
upon the reader. Ten North Fred-
erick, which is obviously the work
of a talented professional, leaves
more up to the reader than do
most novels. Life in general, or
Joseph Chapin’s life in particular,
can be seen as tragic, beautiful,
meaningless or purposeful: / all
these aspects are present in the
life of the central character, and
no one of them predominates
overwhelmingly. And if the 62
years of Joseph Chapin's life do
not play a part in any grand
scheme of things, this does not
detract greatly from the fascina-
tion of the novel.
Bachrach Lectures
At Current Events
The Power Elite, a new study by
S. Wright Mill, was the center of
Mr. Peter Bachrach’s discussion of
“Bourgeois Idealogy and the The-
er outstandingly good nor partic-
at the hedd of May Day. There was only one change made
-this year of which we do not approve: the elimination of
spring as a season of the year. The cold weather during the
last two months has not been a good thing from any point
of view. We would like to suggest that a committee of fac-
ulty and students be appointed early next fall to study the
causes and prevent the same thing from happening again
next year.
An Absurd Requirement
The recent trouble over the open-book hygiene test has
caused us to re-examine the whole question of the hygiene re- '
quirement. As it stands now, the hygiene requirement is a
burden to both students and administration, The material
covered in past exams has either been of a very general na-
ture or has consisted of absurd value judgments and perhaps
useful but certainly unessential details.
No one’s knowledge of hygiene is increased by answer-
ing an advice-to-the-lovelorn-like question of What Bill should
do if he cannot afford to be a doctor. Similarly, it may be
very well to know the difference between sublimation and
projection, but the vast store of psychological terms not coy-
ered on the test make one scrap of information seem quite in-
significant. .
It is common knowledge that the student enters the ex-
amination room with the underlined pages of a hygiene book
stacked away in the back of her mind. Like all required
memorization, the facts are promptly forgotten after the
exam. The student body does not now adopt a serious atti-
tude towards this requirement and never will. This situa-
tion has been illustrated (in an unfortunate manner) in the
recent open-book failure. Cramming before the exam, or, as
in the open-book case, looking up a term in the index does
_ teach one anything. The hygiene exam serves no func-
tion. ; ‘
‘ Jf students are interested in knowing the seven basic
foods, let them look the matter upon their own. In this way,
there is at least a possibility that the knowledge will be re-
tained. We will place our bets on curiosity rather than on
forced cramming.
At present, the hygiene requirement is held up as a men-
ularly evil.
John O’Hara’s talent for narra-
tive rescues what might be an
unexciting form: a biography of
someone who never lived. Opening
with the ‘funeral ‘of the promi-
nent Joseph Benjamin Chapin, Sr.,
Ten North Frederick allows a few
comments on the deceased from his
family, friends and acquaintances.
The ‘main portion of the narrative,
however, is in the form of a flash-
back,‘ which gives the reader a
picture of the Chapins before their
marriage, and of the whole of their
married life until Joséph’s death.

Having had six years of “exper-
ience”, so to speak, Miss Martin
should be quite an authority on life
at Bryn Mawr. And that will be
an asset: for the duties include not
only work with freshmen and in-
dividual sub-freshmen, but ~also

high schools, talking with interest-
ed girls and giving them a general

Evgnts meeting Monday, May 14.
Mill advances the theory that
the chief decisions in the three
most important fields — war and
peace, defense, and inflation and
recession—are made by a small, in-
terdependent group, which Mill
calls “the power elite.”
‘Lhis theory, as it applies to the
running of large corporations, dif-
fers greatly trom Beale’s theory,
according to which corporation de-
cisions are influenced by public
opinion, fear of government inter-
vention, and fear of “mass revolt”
in the form of depression. Large
corporations, Beals says, are also
influenced by the idea that “what
is good for the company is good
for the country.”
According to Mill, there is a
great deal of intermingling of jobs
among the power group: for exam-
ple, generals become presidents,
and corporation heads become top
members of the executive branch
of the government.
Mr. Bachrach criticized Mill’s
theory on the grounds that there
are times when such a power elite
does not exist. Also, if this is a
dangerous situation, it exists be-
cause the people, fascinated by
striking personalities, have voted it

paum, and Tony Amsterdam. , The
lirst three exhibit a defined style
only possible to discern. through
more than one work. While they
differ, all show technical command
and a’fluidity of verse lacking in
others. Miss Rosenbaum’s experi-
ment with the sestina gives a re-
markable freshness to an old and
very dithcult form; her Quarrel, I
consider the better poem because
tess generalizea and less bound by
formal considerations. Mr. Feick
and Miss Horton, by not using the
traditional forms, have set them-
selves a more exacting task. I feel
that on the-whole they have -suc-
ceeded. Their poems are fresh and
clearly developed in thought and
versification.
It is possible that the poorest
poetry in the world is written by
young people about other poets
whose work they have just discov-
ered. Tony Amsterdam’s To Mus-
set belongs in this category. The
poem as.a whole poses from-image
to image while the ending is self-
consciously world-weary. His sec-
ond poem—Again in the Bedroom
by the Railroad Track—is haunting -
in phrase and strong and unusual
in its use of the sonnet form and
meter,
Allen Fischer may also be num-
bered among the successful. His
Fourth Vision owes much to T. S.
Eliot, but stands on its own as an
independent poem. The only dis-
sonant lines are those in Verse III,
which bring in “I.” Since the per-
sonal does not appear elsewhere in
the poem, this sudden intrusion by
the poet breaks unity and sets up
expectations which he does not
realize. : bad
Adele MacVeagh’s Mine, while
pleasing, appears mistitled because
her description is general while the
title is extremely specific. -E. B.
White III departs from the gay
cynicism of Reception into the
Eliot-influenced Eight O’Cloeck rem-
iniscent of the Sweeney poems.
There is a certain grammatical
confusion in the last stanza which
makes it uncertain whether the
woman is weeping, or the clock.
Some of the poetry is confused
or confusing, notably the symbol-
riddled ABC Song by Stephan Cho-
dorov. The melody of this poem is
beautiful and the rhymes subtle.
The idea appears to be similar to
that in Splendor of the Heart, but,
expressed more concisely, gives
much more satisfaction. B. Ben-
don’s Vanilla belongs, I think, in
the confused category. The se-
quence of ideas does not appear
connected either in the poem or
with the title.
‘ Some remarks about the balance
of the contributions are in order.
I should have liked to see more
poetry and a larger list of contrib-
utors. Much of the material comes
from board members at both col-
leges. Perhaps these board mem-
bers should go out in search of ad-
ditional writers. Also, there was a
decided overbalance of Haverford
against. the Bryn Mawr group.
Perhaps there ought to be more
advertising for - contributors in
advance of the deadline. I am also
somewhat disappointed that there
was not more variety in form and
content. An almost total lack of
humor made the succession of som-
ber tales and verses become monot-
onous. Also, if someone were ever
ambitious enough, some narrative
poetry might be contributed.

Of Opinions On recon, oe
The journalism department at
New York University’s School of
Commerce, Accounts, and Finance
released the results of its fourth
annual opinion poll of the nation’s
college newspaper editors. °
A majority of the student jour-
nalists who responded said that:
—President Eisenhower should
be reelected to a second term.
—United States policy toward
Israel is inadequate.
—Extensive federal aid to edu-
cation is desirable.
—Desegregation in southern
schools. will-come-about despite ef-
forts to evade it.
—The campus press should feel
free to comment on national issues,
—American college students dis-
play a lack of interest in national
political affairs,
—Fraternities and sororities do
not have an undemocratic inti
ence,
Participating in the poll were 41
editors, at lange and small, public
and private institutions of higher
learning in all parts of the United
States. Their publications, it-is-es-
timated, reach a combined. collegi-
ate audience of almost half a mil-
lion students.
Fifty-five per cent of campus edi-
tors chose President Eisenhower as
their favorite candidate. Adlai E.
Stevenson was preferred by 26%.
Expressions of support were re-
corded to a lesser degree for Chief
Justice Earl Warren, Senator Es-
tes-Kefauver and Governor. Averell
Harriman. Five of the editors in-
dicated that they were still unde-
cided.
While 26 of 43 editors agreed
that the “peace and prosperity”
theme would make as. “potent an
issue as GOP leaders claim,” all
except four cited other issues which
they thought warranted discussion
in the coming campaign.
Low farm prices and high agri-
cultural surpluses headed the list
with 17 votes. Foreign policy was
listed 18 times and civil rights 9
times. Federal aid to education,
taxes, and the influence of business
on government also were included.
However, only three of the editors
81 to 15 in favor of federal aid to
education. Minority opinion held
that “control follows subsidization”
and that federal influence over edu-
cation is “unhealthy.” On the af-
firmative side, most replies said, in
effect, that control is not an in-
evitability regardless of how much
federal money is given to local
schools,
A majority of the editors main-
tained that school desegregation
will occur “in the foreseeable fu-
ture.” Twenty-six said that~not
eveng% organized resistance “could
stop it, but 18 thought that the
end of segregation would not be in
sight during “our time.” —
Significantly, half of the latter
attend schools outside the deep
South. One Bostonian said, “If we
had any courage, we would enforce
the law.” Editors from New York,
the Dakotas, and the Northwest
agreed with him. Opinion from
Dixie was divided.
One southern student wrote:
“Not in the deep South, where-op-
position is violent!!!” | Another,
however, put it this way: “Intelli-
gent people in all states see that
segregation is impractical as well
as unfair. They will win over the
diehards ... within several years.”
Some 92% of the editors assert-
ed that college newspapers should
feel free to discuss national] issues.
Moreover, nearly all of them indi-
cated that their papers do consid-

dents fail to read any paper except
the campus one ... we feel that
4we should try to keep them in-
formed of current happenings. We
also comment on them to a limited
extent,”

lack of interest by students in poli-
tics. One from a small southern
college wrote: “Students on this

'Y | Opportunity For Interesting, Rewarding Service Provided By
Embreeville Project; Students Urged To Participate In Fall
By Sydney Jamison
Because of the activities of the
various League-sponsored service
projects, Bryn Mawr students have
an unusually rich variety of op-
portunities for personal contact
with the social problems of the
Philadelphia area. One of the new-
est and most rewarding activities
of this type is the recently organ-
ized weekend-long Institutional
Service Unit at Embreeville State
Hospital, which is sponsored by the
American Friends Service Commit-
tee- in conjunction with their sum-
mer institutional units.
The Service Committee’s Hand-
book for Weekend Volunteers sets
forth the ideals which apply to this
particular project, as well as to
their other concerns. “They share
with many people, in and out of
institutional work, the conviction
that love and friendship really do
make atdifference in the lives of
patients; that love and friendship,
expressed in simple-ways,-can-as=|~
sist invaluably the full-time staffs
of mental institutions; that volun-
teers in mental institutions can
serve as a ‘bridge of understand-
ing’ between the hospitals and the
communities of which they are a
part.”

night at the High Street Friends
Meeting House in West -Chester.

the principal aspects of mental

Embreeville. There the group gath-
ers for more “getting acquainted”
and general discussion of the pre-
conceptions and the real knowledge
which each member brings to the
experience.

On the Arab-Israeli dispute, 35
of 40 students criticized the U.S.
policy, while seven offered no com-
ment. Some condemned the State
Department for “catering to the
Arabs” While others said that the
“politicians are sacrificing Ameri-
can interests” for the sake of the
Jewish vote. A slight majority fa-

Students Sign Up
For Summer Jobs
The Bureau of Recommendations
is a medium between Bryn Mawr
and the job world.
Approximateiy 150 girls have
registered with the Bureau of Rec-
ommendations in hopes of getting
summer jobs. (These include one
from Shipley and one from Spring-
field.)
Ranking highest on the list of
summer employment were wait-
ress jobs and family jobs. Jobs in
hospitals and labs ‘were also secur-
ed through the Bureau.
The locations of the various jobs
extend from Philadelphia through
New England and along the East
coast.
_The .procedure-for-obtaining jobs”
through the Bureau varies. There
are files in the basement of Taylor,
which many students have made
use of, concerning jobs formerly
held by Bryn Mawr Students.

Mrs. Nahm Reports
On New Bookshop
Mrs. Nahm reports that this
year’s new bookshop is as enjoy-
able for the staff to work in as for
the students to shop in. As we alf
know, the atmosphere is less “damp
and dusty around the edges” than
that of Taylor basement, and, jper-
haps more important, delivery
truckmen can no longer “become
irascible and dump books on the
pavement.”
Yet in spite of these new advan-
tages, business has not noticeably
improved. The total gross income
of the bookshop is about the same
as last year’s. Mrs. Nahm explains
this by the fact that professors are
less likely to drop in to the book-
shop after classes when a walk is
involved, and that in addition there
have been fewer tempting gift-
books on display this year because
of the need to get “settled.” The
staff-hopes that-more-casual brows=
ing and buying will be seen next
year.

This incongruity seemed to be a
violation of Ann’s outwardly Vic-
torian character. The brigand
scene was beautifully staged (as
were all of Mr. Butman’s group
scenes) achieving the full effect of
its humor. The final seduction
scene was hilarious —the best. in
the production—with Ann stalking
Jack from one end of the stage to
the other. Mr. Butman made a
number of cuts in the script, no-
tably the Don Juan in Hell scene.
‘He was justified for the most part
from the theatrical point of view,
however, because Man and Super-
man intact is an insufferably long
play.
The first act set was magnificent,
built on,a grand scale and metic-
ulously detailed. The second and
third act sets were also effective,
although their backdrops were dis-
appointing. Both were very drab
and obviously painted hurriedly.
The props committee outdid them-
selves in every detail, particularly
in the first act. Dick Rauch and
Dick Wood deserve-a lotof credit
for the’sets, and also for that-wot-|
derful automobile.
On the whole Man and Superman
was a very impressive production.
The few weaknesses I have noted
were more than redeemed by the
overall excellent of the production.
Shaw’s play is very long, loosely
constructed, and potentially rather
dull, but this production of it made
for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.
