Funds: For NDEA Loans
Lie In Political Bormancy.
WASHINGTON (CPS}-- The
most popular and probably most
important government program for
U.S, ‘ college and university
students. is in serious trouble in
Congress,
The. National Defense ‘@ucation
‘Act (NDEA) bill, providing loans
for college students, was sent
to the House Rules Committee last
week where if. could lie dormant
“through the end: of the current
congressional session..
The- action centered around a
_ growing. feud between ‘the House
and Senate Higher Education Sub-
committees,
The Senate earlier approved an
extension of the NDEA act, in-
cluding an additional $35 million
a-year.more than the.current $90
million annual amount for student
loans, The action would’ give the
NDEA three more years of life
instead of matting. it expire next
summer,
A House version of the NDEA
bill would authorize a higher loan
total---$135 million the first year.
Where the Senate limits $800,000
of the program to any one. uni-
versity, the House bill eliminates
any ceiling at all; The current
limit is $250,000 to any single
school,
But rather, than accept the ap-

A. Step. Forward
The. Administration and House Republican
leaders. have reached a bipartisan compromise
on civil rights legislation, which may break the
Judicial Committee stalemate which has held .
up the present draft for weeks,
If it is adopted, the compromise bill will be
the broadest civil rights legislation passed by
Congress in -recent years, It will include:
an FEPC pravision applying to unions and busi-
nesses in interstate commerce; a ban on dis-
crimination in all public eating places; an in-
crease in the speed of trials in cases of voting
‘discrimination; a community relations service
to mediate racial disputes around the country,
But the compromise is far from perfect, It
allows too many loopholes for those who would
deprive Negroes of their freedom, The govern-
for example, is permitted to initiate
publicly managed, ‘controlled or supervised
facilities. In all other instances the government
can legally intervene, but does not have the
important power -to-initiate actions, Further--
more, the provisions against discrimination in
elections apply only to Federal, and. not to
state votes. FEPC, also, applies only to inter-
state commerce, and therefore doesn’t affect
discrimination in most small businesses char-
‘tered on the local level. It seems, too, that the
compromise draft still doesn’t provide: for
adequate specific enforcement of the bans against
discrimination -- and, what use is a law, ‘if it
can’t be enforced, °
—While-the compromise bill is no panacea for
United States discrimination problems, and it
is not as “liberal’? as we might like, itis
certainly a step in the right direction, It is not
necessarily a defeat for those who believe in
strong civil rights legislation, because it is not
final, but, we hope, only a first step in a series
of bills leading’*to the kind of anti-discrimination
legislation we want,

To the Editor:
The eight of us living in the
newly-formed co-operative dor-
“mitory feel that quite a bit of
comment is required. on the arti-
cle about us which appeared in
last week’s issue, of the NEWS. °
First, despite the brevity of the
article, there were numerous er-
rors and pmmissions. At the time
of the interview with the NEWS,
we requested that the copy for the
article be. shown to us before it
was sent to print. The NEWS
agreed, but we never saw the arti-
cle before it appeared in the paper.
Therefore, we would like tosuggest
that the NEWS make a policy of
having its interview copy edited
and amended by those interviewed.
Our major reason for dis-
appointment, however, is that we
wanted very much to make it clear
that living’ in smali-groups out-—
side of the dormitories is not only
possible but extremely desirable
for some people. —
We feel that our experience in
*-the Co-op justifies looking at the
housing regulations which are at
_ present being enforced at Bryn
Mawr, Some of the reasonsfor our
very strong positive feelings about
co-operative living are as follows:
1, We have found that cooking and
cleaning are not very time-con-
suming when there are eight people
to do them; twelve hours per person
Another Look At the Navajo.
To the Editor:: -
We were very much disconcerted
by Jana Rediger’s cursory
description of the Navajo in last
week’s NEWS, Not only does this
article contain such fallacious
statements that it could be
considered libelous, but it is so
full of sweeping generalizations
that it must give rise to serious
misconceptions in the mind ofthe -
reader unfamiliar with the Indians
of this area,
We feel that this type of under -
standing Shown in this article is
similar to that which led to the
destructive policies of the USBIA
‘up to the present administration.
One nrust consider not only present ~
circumstances but also the
historical events - notably the
harsh culture clash involving shift
of prevailing economic patterns
and condescending attitudes of
uninformed white men - which led
to some of the present dilemmas,
As Anthropology majors and as
students, two of whom have worked
for the past twosummers on reser-
vations in the Southwest, we think
that Jana has failed to appreciate
the fact that there are value
systems very different from our
own which are nonetheless valid.
The two of us who have lived
with Indian families have found
that certainly the conditions are
different from those found in the
home of a Bryn Mawr student’s
family, but this does not make’
the former ‘deplorable.’’ They
are - and were more so in the
past - an intrinsic pers of this
@ is unnecessary te refute the
3 misconceptions in this article point:
“by point. itis sufficient to Say ~~
that the statements concerning
Government and Church support,
educational facilities, ‘‘lack of
initiative,’’ family structure, and
permanancy of jobs are simply
incorrect. ©
Perhaps . the . most serious
omission in the article is the fact:
that the Indians are proud of their
cultural differences. The tribes of
the Southwest are culturally among
the ‘strongest of any in the United
States, That they are “satisfied
‘with ¢onditions as they are,”’ is a
rather negative approach, These
. people once had a strong andwell-
integrated culture. Despite the

‘The Budget
To the Editor:
The recent publicity con-
cerning the Undergrad budget has
been brough to our attention; the
problem of Arts Council and
cultural activities on this campus.
Just because Bryn Mawr happens
to be near New York, Philadel-
phia and Haverford (which has
an excellent arts series and movies
on for: our
campus: to be the cultural waste-
land that it is.
At other schools it is possible
for the student council to spon-
sor a particular event. At Bryn
Mawr, however, the general funds
are divided among different
organizations, each of which is
then responsible for getting speak-
ers and providing entertainment
and enlightenment for the college.
Arts Council seems to suffer most
from this arrangement, It is all
very well to publicize going-on
in Philadelphia and New York, but
trips there are time-consuming
and expensive! There is definitely
a need for worthwhile things to
do here, not only during.the week,
but on, week-ends as well. Surely
there is a sufficient demand among
students for artists to come to
_..Speak and perform here, Alliance
has a busy schedule, satisfying
the needs of many interested stu-
dents; -AA,~too;~has a -vigorous ~~
program, sexvine a segment of
the school. Certainly- Arts Council
could appeal to a =e ‘portion
of the college, ;
We realize that the . ‘new Arts ~
. Council president has not had much
opportunity to plan for this year.
But if Undergrad dues are raised,
perhaps \ art of the additional
revenue. could be allotted for an
arts program sponsored by either
Arts Council or Undergrad,
Certainly something must be done
if Bryn Mawr-is to- maintain its
»sposition as an intellectual . and
cultural center.

Marriage, Money, and Transfers
Supply Reasons for Dropouts ~
_By Peggy Wilbur
The first article in this two-
part seties described Bryn
Mawr’s very low dropout rate,
At this point, it is consistent
to outline a few reasons for this
occurrence, ..
The percentage’ of early mar-
riages is on the rise. There is
less tendency to discourage them
the part of college ad-
ministrators, and more ‘students
may feel free to marry and con-
‘tinue their education,
Bryn- Mawr is located in a
metropolitan area which has a
high concentration . of men’s
schools, and the Bryn-Mawr girl
who marries before graduation is
apt to acquire a husband who goes
to school nearby. Thus her
chances of being able to continue
here are better.
This coincides with the state-
ment of Annie Leigh Broughton,
Director of Admissions, that
metropolitan area colleges tend to
graduate more students than, re-
moter ones, She also cited. the
*‘more normal social life?’ as an
advantage of a are area

vated,’’ She added, ‘‘Now more
Students know what they want todo
and how to do it.”’ She cited this
increased motivation as a reason
for taking college less lightly,
and for the rise in graduate ed-

Alliance Marxist Film:
A Propaganda Classic

day’s film was testimonial to:
the excellent job Kathy Boudin is
doing in bringing - originality to
her attempts at political stimula-

Room was filled to overflowing:
‘a remarkable turnout since the
film was competing with chorus

The movie, ‘“You and Your Pal,?’'
was a revealing indication of con-
temporary East German ‘‘Marx-

in East Germany and depicted the.

largely by a desire for colonies.

NSA. Expansion
By Mary Beth Schaub, 4
The National Student Associa-
tion in its sixteenth Congress ap- ¢
proved a'new structure. The Na-
tional Executive Committee now
has. two interim boards instead of
regional Chairmen, One is the
Congress Steering " Committee
which will outline rules, commit-
tees and subcommittees, and the
structure of the following year’s
Congress,
The second is the National Su-
pervisory Board which will deal ‘
with financial problems and com-
munication between elected of-
ficers and the staff,
The position of Program Vice
‘President was‘ also modified,
There are now two, one “in the
Midwest and one on the West
Coast, instead of Philadelphia,
Thus: the. Director .of .Community.—-
Issues can now deal directly with
the Association’s main concern,
integration,
These, plus® the rule preventing
the reference of any legislation
to’ smaller boards, constitute an
attempt to provide for expansion,
This burden fell” formerly on the
’ NEC which spent its time break-
ing in new members rather than
_ dealing . with programming and
a
policy. Thusthe NEC accomplished _
little and yet received the venom
of. the attacks against the NSA
elite,
The three changes are intended
to promote efficiency in legisla-
tiott and communication; But the

Too Many Noisy Players BMC Interfaith To Offer Talking Squirrel Befriends
ig Out Poor Jacques ——
*
‘This past. weekend the Experi-
mental Theater Group of Williams
College put on a production of
‘ Jonesco’s- JACQUES OR THESUB-
MISSION with the aid of various
Bennington girls and one’ English
baby sitter, The emphasis. of the
production was on the raucous
- nature of Jacques’ family which
rather detracted from. the. play,
since the author presumably in-
tended to elevate Jacques.by his
refusal to accept conventions,
The saving grace of the produc-
tion was the doddering grandfather
who babbled drunken songs instead
of admonishing Jacques, His ina-
bility to comprehend his grand-
son’s rebellion placed him beyond
the pale of modern society, and
drew some attention to Jacques’
stark passivity, == case
The clue of Jacques’ resistance
lay “in his understanding of the
oppressive society’ around him,
‘yet the play had only two truly
great moments, whereas it could
have had many-more,
The first occurred when Jacques |
was visibly jolted by his sister’s
use of non-existent word, At this
point, he lost ‘his resistance~and
"let himself be drawn into marri-
age and the production line,
Jacques was reduced to hatch-
ing out eggs for the society he
had once disdained, It is only
in retrospect, however, that one
notices that it is far better to

because during the production
of this was noticeable above thé _
uproar, Jacques’ final plea, that
there might be pessimists hatched
out of the eggs, was nearly in-
audible,

placed on Jacques’ ‘‘submission,”’
the production might have been

New Prof In Art History
We have an amazing new pro-
fessor on campus, one who has dis-
covered talking squirrels in the
_, trees outside the History of Art
study,
Sheldon Nodelman came to Bryn
Mawr to teach modern art this year
after: spending his undergraduate
Sheldon A. Nodelman
|
i
|
|
1
+
|
: Only bachelor in West Wing
| and graduate years at Yale Univer-_
| sity.. His special field is the late
| antique period and he is presently
doing research onthe Severan por-
| traiture of the third century A.D,
It seems strange that a man with
~ such an intereshire?4 be teaching
modern art art. He maintains, h how-
ever, that the modern and ‘antique
periods are similar because in both
‘the naturalistic style was re-
placed by the abstract,’’ He is
especially interested in twentieth
century American art,.and in such -
artists as Klein and de Kooning.
In 1960-61 Mr.Nodelman studied
at the University of Rome on 4a..
Fulbright, at which time he planned
_ to write a history of Severan paint-
ing. However, he found his material
tan fraementarv and found no
“established criterion to which he
could compare Severan. painting.
Therefore he decided to establish
his own criterion and to compare
it with Severan sculpture.
Of future projects, Mr.. Nodel-
man says that hé has “a number of
things on the fire: both in antique
and modern art. But one cannot
help thinking that his history of
Severan Painting will soon mater-
ialize.~
Without any direct comment o on
our Yale counterparts, he said that
he has found the students here re-
sponsive,;-in fact-“%; ‘Surprisingly, -
so.”’ He added however, ‘I wish
they would talk more ‘treely.’?
_ SCM’s "Edge” Has Many Fine Points:
Food, | Friends, Folk-singing,.and Drama
The. Edge is not a restaurant.
It is a non-profit-making organi-
zation, whose purpose is to provide
a place fér college students to go
.in the evenings. It is a group
meeting place, a forum for dis-
cussion, a place to be alone over
books. or a letter or a cup of
espresso. It is, essentially, what
the ‘‘customers”’ want it to be.
The workers who volunteer come
from the churches and the college
groups associated with the organ~
ization, and, in increasing num- ;
bers, from the =customers them-
selves. Each night is staffed by”
an_entirely different group, under
the direction of a moderator who-
leads his group in discussion and
prayer before opening and desig-
‘nates jobs for _ the evenings.
Generally, one person: acts as
cashier and host (or hostess),

time between one night a month
to one night a week, or ‘‘on call’’

except that the volunteer sign a
commitment sheet stating that he

for which he has signed, and will

poses of the Edge.
The Edge in no way tries to
organize or. control but attempts
to PROVIDE: a place, a time, a.

to be a.une, an atmosphere. The
constant change in policies or
entertainment, closing time, im-
promptu singing and most other
aspects reflect the concern of the
organization over the students and
its response to student wishes.

The Edge, located on Lancaster’
Pike in Bryn Mawr, was opened
on March 17, 1962 in response to
the need evinced by Bryn Mawr

to which to go for entertainment
and conversation after 10:00, when
most of the diners and delica-

The planning and the work onthe
coffee house was done by students

new perspective to the course by
giving students an opportunity to
study art history from the tech-
nical or practical point of view.
Although some art historians
might disagree, Mr. Mitchell is
‘delighted’? to have Mr, Janschka
teaching regularly since he be-

ductory course more valuable for
~ students who plan to take only one
artcourse as well as for those who
plan to major in art history.
Mr. Janschka puts his discus-
sions of practical art problems in
their historical context, explaining
how. one artist’s style influences
many others in a ‘‘logical develop-
ment of different techniques
through the centuries.’’ He also
explains how various painting sur-
faces, mediums, and kinds ‘of
under-painting affect the finished
work of art, although they are not—-
visible, He plans to teach some
basic -principles of perspective,
‘color and design as welfas artists’
‘‘cooking recipes’ for
various
kinds of paint. eet
In the past Mm Janschka has con-
~ ducted “art lab” as a regular part ~
of the introductory course, In this:
lab students have a chance to use
different mediums and gain some
understanding of an artist’s practi-
cal problems, The addition of'more
formal classroom. ~ instruction
about these problems is expected to
connect the lab periods more
closely to the rest of the course.

THE KAMA SUTRA OF VATSY-
AYANA translated by Sir Richard
Burton, F,F, Arbuthnot, Capricorn
Books, New York, 1963,
When the Kama Sutra was first
published in 1883 by the Kama
Shastra society in England it was
intended as a contribution of Hindu
erotica, whose translators were
“concerned about the happiness of
man and the comfort of woman,”
When the Kama Sutra was re-
published in England last year, it
prompted a cartoon of a straight-
laced Puritan furtively reading a
Neither of these. reactions,
however, indicates the true nature
of this contribution to our knéw-
ledge, as the American edition
clearly shows. Ably edited by W.
G,. Archer, wjth an intreduction by
K.M, Panikkar, the Kama Sutra is
offered as an important document
of our understanding of Hindu life
and thought, | \
‘To the Hindu, the sensual ele-
ment is a crucial part of: Indian
tradition. “Sex is central and na-
tural to their culture, as reflected
in Indian art, literature and re-
ligion, The excessive other-world-
liness usually attributed" to the
Hindus has no foundation in fact,
Kama (pleasure or sensual grat-
ification) was as. much a part of.
the ‘good life’’ as Dharma (virtue
or religious merit ) and Artha
‘‘The union: of
symbol of divine creation,... asa
transformation from duality into
unity.’ :
It is against this background that
Vatsyayana between the lst andthe
4th centuries composed the collec-
tion of aphorisms we know 48 the”
Kama Sutra, Vatsyayana was are-
ligious student, a moralist and an
impartial observer, Herecords in
an almost scientific fashion the
most intimate details and acts, in
the belief that skill, technique and
knowledge constitute the basis for
enjoyment of life,
But the Kama Sutra is not just an
exotic marriage manual, it isa
complete philosophy of the sensual
aspect of life, including marriage

and duty. As such, it is avaluable—
contribution to our studies and
understanding of India..
Finally, Vatsyayana recom-
mends two time-tested methods of
getting rid of a lover: speakingona
subject with which he is not ac-
quainted or pretending to be sleepy!
Seen inits entirety, the Kama Su-
tra is much more than a ‘dirty
Reading it, as one early
_remarked, is a task
‘equally pleasant and profitable.”’
