Spring Ferments Ars Poetica:

Puddle-Wonderful Plagiarism?

by Emily McDermott, '68

Poetry is In in spring. What’s
more, spring is In in poetry, Al-
most every poet worth his salt has
had a few words to say about
spring, Of course, the popularity
of the subject makes it a little dif-
ficult to say anything that has not
already been said a dozen or more
times, Therefore, we at the COL-
LEGE NEWS would like to suggest
to budding poets that they scrap
originality when dealing with
spring and devote themselves
to repeating what has already been
said, This can be done in two dif-
ferent ways.

The first technique derives from
the *‘collage’? method of painting.
It might therefore be called ‘‘col-
lage’? poetry. The *‘collage’’ poem
consists solely of allusions to or
direct steals from other poems:
the poet strives to include as few
of his own words as possible. The
following is an example of this
kind of poetry:

April is the cruellest month,
mixing (as from unburied which)
memory and desire,

stirring dull roots with

April and we thy vestals

The second type of poetry is the
Idea Poem, which uses only tradi-
tional imagery and communicates
through word association, thus re-
lieving the poet of responsibility
for the poem, The meaning of the
poem depends largely on the indi-
vidual reader’s psyche. For
example:

rain... lamb... buds
love ... green... pussywillows

If the poet is of a more cynical
bent, he can amend this last poem
to read: :

rain... lamb... buds
love ... green... pussywillows
hell

(Such a trick ending gives the
reader something profound to think
about). The Idea Poem canbe sim-
plified even further, until it reads
simply ‘‘SPRING!’? But perhaps
that defeats the purpese of writing
the poem in the first place.

‘Cherry Orchard’
College Theater’s
Next Production

**The Cherry Orchard,’’ by An-
ton Chekhov, will be the Bryn
Mawr-Haverford College Thea-
ter’s next production. The per-
formance will take place in Roberts
Hall on May 7 and 8.

Robert Butman is directing the
play and Vicki May, president of
Bryn Mawr College Theater, will
be assistant director.

Though not all the parts have
been cast yet, those in the. lead-
ing roles are as follows;

Jane Robbins will play Madame
Ranevsky, the owner of the cherry
orchard; Priscilla Robbins is her
daughter Anya; Lynn. Meadow is
her adopted daughter Varya. Mun-
son Hicks is her brother Gaev;
Terry van Brunt is the merchant
Lopakin.

Rich Gartner, Nimet Habachy,
Chris Kopf, Rena Gill agd Rick
Bready,. will also be in the play.
Judy Chapman is production man-

ager.

‘The Cherry Orchard,’’ written
in 1904, is a masterpiece of
dramatic form and one of Chek-
hov’s most celebrated plays. It
concerns the tragedy of power-
lessness during a period when
the Russian life and character was
changing to a new order with a
practical, modern outlook.

Madame Ranevsky could be
saved from ruin if she would
sell her estate. But she will not
because she cannot, and is at last
ruined and thrown out into an
unsympathetic world.

When the degree is finally yours,
what do you plan to do with
it? You'll find that many good
jobs require women with col-
lege backgrounds. But, they
often require women with sec-
retarial skills or business
knowledge, too. Will you have
marketable skills? Katharine
Gibbs School offers expert
training in secretarial and busi-
ness subjects; the Course for
pn Women takes just 8/2

“Seance” Absorbing Drama
Even on a Dry Afternoon

-by Nancy McAdams, '65

The thing is, see, is that you’ve
just gotta see SEANCE ON A WET
AFTERNOON at the Bryn Mawr
Theatre!!

The raindrops fall slowly into a

grimy puddle on a grimy street. ©

The puddle mirrors a grimy Vic-
torian mansion giving ominous
warning of the eerie drama about
to unfold within.

The house looks like all those
ugly dilapidated mansions of a by-
gone era; the kind present in sub-
urbs everywhere, the kind remin-
iscent of better days, the kind
always leading one to imagine
strange and sinister happenings
which have no part inthe humdrum
activities of daily life. This house,
indeed, is the backdrop for a very
strange and sinister situation.

Kim Stanley and Richard Atten-
borough, as the couple about
whom the story revolves, fit into
this .backdrop perfectly. She was
once a beauty, with a still beauti-
ful face reflecting the powerful

‘emotions and strange visions which

completely dominate her, and move
her to believe she can make con-
tact, as a medium, with the souls of
the dead, She holds seances, in a
dark room with only a single candle

burning in the center of the table, -

and conveys messages from ‘the
dead to their relatives still on
earth,

Her husband is a quiet tortured
man, who is painfully aware of the
~~

twisted nature of her mina, He ac-
quiesces to her every wish, does
all that she tells him witha feeling
of hopelessness. He has giveninto
her, and accepts the unreal condi-
tions of their life as inevitable, .

‘It is only with the carrying out of
her recently evolved plan to kidnap
a child Sitates, This is one
step too far, for it will involve
them with the world outside, its
obvious disapproval and reaction
against their way of life, and the
serious consequences if their plan
should fail, He tries vainly to dis-
suade her to refuse tocomply, but
then, finally, he gives in to her in
this as he has in everything else.

The story from here on is com-
pletely absorbing and terrifying. It
moves swiftly toward a gripping
climax and leaves one exhausted
and overcome, both by the fascin-
ation and suspense of this strange
tale, and bythe magnificent and
powerful performance of Kim Stan-
ley!
