paren
May Day started early this
morning when sophomores rose at
5:15 to prepare breakfast for the
seniors in their halls. At 5:45
the seniors were roused, and by 6
they were coming to full con-
sciousness over a breakfast of
coffee and doughnuts,
Collecting their May baskets,
seniors proceeded to Miss Mc-
Bride’s house at 6:45, led by the
class song mistress and Presi-
dent Caroline Willis. Caroline

The top academic awards and
prizes for 1966 were announced
at this morning’s annual May Day
assembly in Goodhart Hall.
Winner of both the Maria.L.
Eastman Brooke Hall Memorial
Scholarship and a Charles S&S,
Hinchman Memorial Scholarship,
each to be held during the senior
year, was Sheila Burke, ’67.
The Brooke Hall award is made
annually to the member of the

junior class with the highest gen-
eral average, and the Hinchman
scholarship goes to a member of
the junior class for work of special
excellence in her major subject.
‘Cheaper Living on the Main Line’
Is May Queen’s Budget
Following is the text of May
Queen Caroline Willis’ morn-
ing speech -- Ed.
The other day, while I was wait-
ing for the free phone, I happened
to hear a fascinating conversation.
The topic was, it turned out, ‘‘How
to Save Money without being Really
Trying’’ or ‘‘Cheaper Living on the
Main Line.’’ As I had a pencil
and paper with me, I took notes
and I wish now to share these
with you.
First, in the area of residence,
the hall dining rooms will hence-
forth observe all Fasts (both reli-
gious and political) on a campus-
wide basis. Those students who
wish to eat may participate in
group discussions,
To help with maintenance, facul-
ty members may find supple-
mentary employment cleaning stu-
dents’ rooms. This will be a Good
Thing in two ways:
a) it will encourage greater at-
tention to detail on the part of the
student body, as no girl would
leave her room in its present
state to be seen by her major
professor.
b) the faculty salaries will in
this way be augmented,
In order .to cut down electricity
wastage following the example of
New York, the campus power plant
will be turned down at 6 p.m. and
off completely at midnight. This
is, you may have noticed, already
in effect in the main reading room
of the library. Also, to make full
use of Daylight Savings Time,
students will be awakened from
now on at 5:45 by the sophomores
inseach dorm.
In the realm of the academic,
those girls who do not participate
in class discussions shall be re-
quired to pay a higher tuition to
compensate the professors for
their increased work load. Those
Bryn Mawrters wishing to listen
to a course shall pay admission
at the door.
Due to the success of allowing
Solution
people with Haverford courses to
walk there in the snow, by a joint
agreement of the Gym Dept. and
the Buildings and Grounds Dept.,
the bus will be used in the future
to house the overflow of fresh-
men.
Student activities will be some-
what altered under the new money-
saving system. The outgoing A.A.
president has announced that since
the ’65-’66 sports season was so
successful, BMC teams will turn
professional to help meet costs
of keeping the Gym open on week-
ends.
The social chairman cooperated
fully by resigning; the money thus
saved will provide more band-
aids for Rock andindoor swimming
facilities for the Pembrokes.
In doing her part to save money,
but ostensibly in order to secure
more privacy in sign-outs, the
out-going Self-Gov president has
arranged for ail switchboards to
be ‘removed from the halls, many
of which were deteriorating from
lack of use anyway. The switch-
boards will be replaced by empty
boxes labelled indiscriminately
«¢‘Out’? and ‘‘‘In.’? Those students
who fail to comply must file an
Operation Match form with the
Dean’s office.
Due to the success of morning
coffees in several of the halls,
the Administration has decided to
tear down the Deanery. The area
cleared will provide space for 4a
five-story parking garage, staffed
by Burns men who failed to meet
the «¢997’’ requirement for regular
college patrol duty.
Most exciting of all is the new
money-saving plan outlined by the
Calendar Committee! Due to~ the
vast number of snags in the new
calendar it was decided by unani-
mous vote that for the academic
year 1966-67 the college will not
. Open.

Sheila, whose major is econom-
ics, was originally in the class of
’68 but accelerated and will grad-
uate next year. |
Another Hinchman scholarship
went to Katherine Sborovy, ’67,
for special excellence inher major
subject, English. She was also the
winner of a Sheelah Kilroy Me-
morial Scholarship in English. The
latter award is given to a student
for excellence of work in second-
year or advanced courses in Eng<
lish, Last year Katherine was one
of the members of the editorial
board of the REVIEW.
Maysoon Pachachi, ’69, was
awarded the Sheelah Kilroy Me-
morial Scholarship in English for
the best essay written during her
freshman year,
The Elizabeth S. Shippen Schol-
arship in Science, which may be
presented to students whose major
is biology, chemistry, geology, or
physics, was awarded to Mavis
George, ’67,. whose major is phy-
sics. ;
Frida Attia-Stolowy, ’67, who is
originally from Panama, won the
Elizabeth S. Shippen Scholarship
in Language for excellence of work
in her major, Russian. This year
Frida was vice president of: the
Katherine Sborovy
college’s Russian Club.
Susan Scarpelli, *67, was also
the recipient of a Shippen scholar-
ship for excellence of work in her
major, Latin.
Granted the Elizabeth Duane Gil-
lespie Prize in American History
was Nancy Gellman, ’67. This
prize goes to a sophomore or a
junior for work of distinction in
that field,
Nancy is a_ political
major, but won dhe prize on the
basis of the history courses she
has taken. During her past college
years she supplemented her work
load with Hebrew courses at Gratz
me ge and .was-also a student at.

Pass - Fail
As many seniors have discovered, Bryn Mawr’s grading system °
sometimes makes it difficult to get irito graduate school. Underclassmen
majoring in the humanities, when they discover this, often decide not to
take a math or science course that interests them because they fear
for their grade average, For the same reason, science majors decide
not to take an upper level English course, or psych majors don’t take
history of art, All of this tends to force a student who came here for a
liberal education to stay in her major field more than is perhaps neces-
sary.
One solution, recently instituted at the University of Pennsylvania
(see page 7), is a pass-fail system in courses outside one’s major and
outside the basic course requirements for graduation. We think that
such a system could be adapted to Bryn Mawr and recommend that
Curriculum Committee look seriously into this possibility.
A pass-fail plan allows a student, if she wishes, to take courses out-
side her major, ‘‘for no end other than knowledge of the material,’’
says U of P’s Student Committee on Undergraduate Education. We agree
that. a pass-fail system would indeed encourage and reinforce the idea
that learning is an end in itself.
There are other advantages. It might make it easier to take a fifth
course. It might increase inter-departmental communication, It all
depends on the specific plan and, of course, it is quite possible to have
a pass-fail plan which does none of these. However, the potential is
definitely there, and certainly deserves the consideration of students,
faculty, and administration,
NEWS Stand
At the last Undergrad meeting, a proposal was offered to append a
charge for all campus publications except the Yearbook to the suggested
increased student activities fee. Students who did not wish to subscribe
to any or all of the publications included would be responsible for
individually requesting the removal of the charge.
The motive of the measure is a noble one at heart -- raising sub-
scription figures for some starving or at least partially hungry pub-
lications. Its effectiveness hinges on a tried and true feature of campus
life: student apathy in the face of such administrative nuisance tasks.
At present, opinion gatherers are collecting opinions on the issue
throughout the dorms and the COLLEGE NEWS would like to add its
collective voice. We were not consulted about the plan, and we dis-
approve. Although the NEWS is always cordially receptive to new
subscriptions, we do not accept such an arbitrary method of obtaining
*them. We hope to convince students, by the merit of our newspaper,
that their college life is incomplete and uninformed without the NEWS.
We do not agree that forcing them to subscribe is the proper method
of drawing their admiration.
An inclusive activities fee that benefits the entire campus is the
responsibility of all ipso facto members of the Undergraduate Asso-
ciation. The cost of a private subscription to the NEWS or any other
publication is a decision that should be left up to the discretion of the
consumer. :
The COLLEGE NEWS appreciates the thought behind the suggestion,
but in this case we must insist that, the end -- however attractive --
does not justify the means, ,
oo Tradition
This is a world in which each
of us, knowing the evils of liberal-
ism, and the horrors of innovation,
wil! have to cling to what is close
to him, to his tra. ition and his
love, lest he be dissolved in a
universal confusion and know
nothing and love nothing. This
time has been long in coming;
but it has come, It is, we think,
for us and our children, our only
way to make partial order in total
_ chaos.
There remains a tradition at
Haverford both beloved and sal-
vagable; the annual Rape'(sic) of
the Maypoles...

have no idea if Haverford successfully upheld the tradition the above

‘A Nitkk : Wo od’
To the Editor:
The day of the first perform-
ance of College Theatre and the
Haverford Drama Club’s produc-
tion of ‘‘Under Milk Wood,’’ an
unfavorable and highly subjective
description of the dress rehearsal
was published in the NEWS, Sub-
sequently there was a letter from
Karen Durbin objecting to this
unfair and unjust treatment, but a
review of the actual performance
did not appear, Several of uscom-
pletely unconnected with the
production wished to supply this
lack. We are glad to have this
opportunity to express our own
views, for we feel that ‘‘Under
Milk. Wood’’ was one of the finest
College Theatre productions to
date,
The set was a surprise and a
delight. In addition to a skeletel
composition of the usual dark plat-
forms there was a realistic rep-
resentational scene appearing
through a veil of harborside mist,
constantly changing and moving to
show the action of wind and sea
and the passage of time. The sway-
ing masts of the boats augmented
the enchanting, hypnotic effect of
the play. Lance Jackson’s lighting
was, as always, superb, and
greatly facilitated the smooth shift
from scene to scene. Dawn and
high noon and sunset came con-
vincingly and beautifully.
The lyric power and beauty of
Thomas’ lines, obvious throughout
and the extra work the actors did
with music and poetry was well
worth the effort. The crowning
touch was the delight of Gwen
Aaron’s warm Welsh accent as
she read Second Voice. Robert
Butman as First Voice was ade-
quate despite his regrettable ten-
dency to pronounce ‘‘milk’’ as
‘é¢melk.’’
The actors handled the difficult
job of playing more than one part
with ease and skill. This was one
performance in which the quality
of the acting was consistently high,
with no special ‘‘stars’’ or ‘*weak’’
characters. The casting, left until
all the actors had worked.with the
play long enough to get well into
the feeling of it, was especially
apt. The moods ranged from slap-
stick to lyric sorrow, in a flaw-
lessly flowing progression. The
fragmentary tendency of this play
was held firmly in check, and the
overall impression created was
one of unity and continuity, The
action moved smoothly from one
scene to the next and from mood
to mood with no hesitancy.
One of the evening’s most im-
pressive performances was given

[LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
by Joachim Von Der Thusen who
played afiercely poignant but never
pathetic Blind Captain Cat. There
is no single starring role in the
play, and every actor turned ina
superior performance; but some of
the scenes highlighted in our
memories were of Priscilla Rob-
bins as the maid. Lily Smalls
carrying on an animated dialogue
with herself in the mirror; Mar-
garet Cool as Polly Garter singing
in her beautiful untrained voice
of her lost love; Lynne Meadow
and Howard Bush as Mr. and Mrs.
Pugh hating each other over the
lunch table; Lynne Meadow, this
time as Gossamer Beynon, twitch-
‘ing; Rich Gartner as the Rev.
Eli Jenkins, reading. what must be
some of the world’s best bad
poetry; Nimet Habachy andFelicia
Folk as the two Mrs, Dai Breads
trying to tell their bedroom for-
tunes; Chris Kobler as Sinbad
Sailor, lusting after Gossamer
Beynon; and Munson Hicks as Mr.
Waldo singing in a riotously ribald
manner a song that could perhaps
be perfectly innocent.
There were many other ‘excel-
lent performances, and many more
*thighlights’® than we have been
able to mention. The evening wasa
thorough delight, and we hope that
none of you missed it at the in-
stigation of the pre-performance
review. .

Inn Kitchen
A few weeks ago, I went to the
student kitchen in the College Inn
to bake .a birthday cake, and as I
entered the kitchen I nearly col-
lapsed. Filthy dishes and cooking
pans were scattered among piles
of garbage which had been left on
the counters. The new stove which
was purchased to replace the stove
that was burned out by careless-
ness was not working. It too had
suffered from improper use and
a failure to wipe off inches of
grease which had accumulated on
its surface and insides.
Needless to say, the cake didnot
turn out as well as it might have.
This kitchen is our kitchen, and
I refuse to believe that Bryn Mawr
students could have such a lack of
consideration for others. The
thought of eating food cooked in
this kitchen is enough to make
anyone sick.
I have also heard that pots,
cooking utensils, and dishes have
been disappearing from the kitchen
all- year, and that often food left
in the refrigerator is missing the
next day. What is most shocking
is that a stove had to be replaced
because grease left on it had caused
it to burn out, and that the new
stove is being’ treated in the same
manner.
I am thoroughly disgusted with
the lack of responsibility towards
the Inn kitchen and will make no
further attempts to cook food in
it until I feel sure that more care
is being taken towards its im-
provement.

NCUP Request
Margaret Levi received this re-
quest for Bryn Mawr’s ‘aid and
wished to share it with the cam-
pus. »- Ed,
A thousand million thanks to
people at Bryn Mawr for the much
needed help!
On May 10 and May 31 there
will be municipal elections here
(first a primary then .a runoff).
Newark Community Union Project
is supporting two militant candi-
dates for City Council anda liberal
insurgent Negro candidate for
Mayor. The candidates are com-
mitted to a number of exciting
radical proposals concerning
urban renewal, the war onpoverty,
education and police brutality.
If the candidates Win (the coun-
cil candidates are engaged in ex-
tremely close contests) the move-
ment here will receive a great
boost.
We need election day workers
-- to babysit, take voters to the
polls, challenge, etc. A number of
girls from Bryn Mawr would be
very welcome ... They would come
the evening of May 9 and stay over.
Hopefully, victory parties will fol-
low election day.

‘Educational Goals Committee’
Develops Bryn Mawr Branch
The Educational Goals Commit-
tee, organized to develop an over-
all framework of educational
theory, plans to hold a series of
seminars on ‘*The Meaning of
Education at Bryn Mawr’’ early
in the fall of 1966.
This committee was recently
formed by a group of students who
feel that the increased discussion
of the university in America and
the growing importance of organ-
izations such as Curriculum Com-
mittee points to a need for defining
the goals of education.
In order to know what issues
are important and to avoid jumping
into a program of widespread
change without having an idea of
what should be retained and what,
if anything, should be chariged in
the present system, it is neces-
sary to form a total view of what
an education should entail.
Dorothy Dow, Nancy Gellman,
Bev Lange, and Margaret Levi are
organizing the seminars here, to
provide an open forum for discus-
sion of the goals of education and
for evaluation of education at Bryn
Mawr in light of these goals.
The seminars will be plannedas
working sessions in which all
members of the college community
students, faculty, and administra-
tion, will be encouraged to examine
critically all aspects of education
and to work towards implementing
the theories and policies developed
in the sessions.
The Educational Goals Commit-
tee called a meeting for those
interested in contributing to the
planning of these sessions Thurs-
day afternoon. The meeting was
Alliance Sponsors
NATO Discussion
Drewdie Gilpin, president of Al-
liance, has announced that there
will be a discussion of NATO at
7:30 p.m., May 9 in the Common
Room. Lt. Cl. Orley Caudill of the
Air Force'‘will be there to speak
and listen to comments, He is now
connected with the Pentagon, in the
Military Committee and Standing
Group.
Although he will speak, he is
also very interested in what people
think these days about the future
of NATO, especially with the
French withdrawing their troops.

concerned with developing a format
for the _ sessions,
speakers, and finalizing the topics
to be discussed.
Suggestions included having stu-
dents from other schools come to
explain what kind of framework
they have; having sessions in the
dorms with professors invited to
lead discussions; ending the series
of sessions with a re-evaluation
of the nature of an educated person
to see how ideas will have changed;
and printing up formal evaluations
to be kept as future working papers.
Further questions to be dis-
cussed next year are: What frame-
works are possible for the devel-
opment of an educated person? --
the role and value of requirements,
of major work, of grading, of in-
dependent work and of work outside
the academic sphere.
Is participation a valuable and
necessary part of education? What
constitutes student affairs? Do stu-
dents have a legitimate part to
play in the administration of he
college?
What is the role of the admin-
istration of the college community?
What is the role of the professor?
Researcher? Teacher?
Criticisms and suggestions on
the above topics should be directed

‘Long Day’s Journey’ Rehearsals
Experiment for Emotional Qualities
Rehearsals for College Thea-
tre’s production of Eugene
O’Neill’s ‘‘Long Day’s Journey
Into Night,’’ scheduled for May 6
and 7 at 8 p.m, in Roberts Hall,
Haverford, are now entering their
final week.
Completed in 1941, this play is
one of O’Neill’s last, and one which
he intended not to be presented
until 25 years after his death, It
is in fact a searing picture of
O’Neill’s own family, with only
slightly disguised details: he is the

On Opening Production
Little Theatre is making ef-

Pam Barald, one of the organ-

that the extent and degree of stu-
dent and administration response
to the venture has been highly
gratifying. The furniture for the
set, for example, has been col-
lected from all over the campus,
the wheel chair coming from the
infirmary. Many students who have
not participated in the activities of
College Theatre are contributing
their services to Little Theatre.

Creative Arts, Undergrad Fee
Discussed at Monday Meeting
Official recognition of the crea-
tive arts was the first item dis-
cussed at the Undergrad meeting
Monday night. A petition asking for
a reevaluation of the Bryn Mawr
curriculum and requesting credit
for creative courses other than
creative writing will be posted in
all dorms by May 9.
The Curriculum Committee,
headed by Joan Cavallaro, cur-
rently is working on this problem.
Joan brought up specifically the
possibility of students’ receiving
credit for instrumental instruc-
tion, Margaret Edwards feels that
if more notice is given to the arts
on campus by the administration,
facilities will improve.
The question of a raise of Un-
dergrad dues was discussed also.
Representatives gave reports on
the opinions in their dorms con-
cerning a raise. It was apparent
that many students favored an in-
crease up to 20 dollars, The extra
money could be used to provide
more exciting activities on cam-
pus, including speakers, confer-
ences, workshops, and professional
per‘ormances, A substantial num-
ber wanted the new fee to be paid
by parents with tuition;--others
agreed to have it included on Pay
Day during the year.

My general impression is that Bryn Mawr teaches
people what it thinks they need to know, and some-
thing of how to do what they should know how. to do.
Amherst teaches people how to know, with a sample
of what it is to know a few things very well. Bryn
Mawr seems more interested in giving information
and orthodox methods, Amherst was more in-
terested in the destruction of information and the
criticism of methods. After he graduated, the smug
alumnus could rebuild his models of the world or
even make new ones, Bryn Mawr teaches people
the old models and old games to play with then:
without much sense of humor.
So freshman comp remains and no doubt will
remain what it is because of what Bryn Mawr is,
because of what Bryn Mawr does, and what it values,
and what it does not value. This is not necessarily
bad. If it is done. energetically, it.is a lot better
than “some

- Galbraith, Kaufmann, Boorstin Yr, Phillips, Miss Mellink Plan
At North Carolina Conference
by Kit Bakke
A trip to Chapel Hill is nice
any time, but I found it especially
delightful during symposium week,
The 1966 Carolina Symposium,
‘ entitled Man, Mind and Myth, in-
vited 40 students from other cam-
puses to stay at the University of
North Carolina, April 17-20, free
" of charge, to attend the symposium
lectures and seminars. The budget
for the symposium was over
$14,000, so the’ university could
afford to treat us well, both with
food and lodgings, and with the
treat of hearing and questioning
interesting and learned men on
everything from Vietnam to cab-
bages. z
The first event Sunday night was
a terrace buffet at the Morehead
Planetarium, given to the college
by one of their richest benefactors.
John Kenneth Galbraith, the key-
note speaker, was there, towering
over the rest of the guests, His
speech, like several others, was
rumored to be on Vietnam. It was,
and the audience reaction was
very strange. He was against our
being there, but in a very quiet,
reasoned ‘way, and the audience,
which was relatively conservative,
didn’t seem to get the point because
they clapped very heartily at the
end.
It may be that they were just
being polite. In fact, I was over-
whelmed with Southern Hospitality
during my whole visit. The sorority
where I stayed (it had a color TV)
went out of its way to be nice,and
all the kids and the professors I
met were marvelous,
On Monday, Dean Alan Richard-
son, a bishop of the Church of
England, and Daniel Boorstin, pro-
. fessor of American history at the
University of Chicago, spoke.
Richardson was a very sweet Eng-
lishman but his ideas were not well
received. He felt that the ‘*God
is dead’? movement had no merit
and that of all religions, only
Christianity was not a myth be-
cause it had historical basis. Most
interestingly, he actually said that
everything had already been
thought of, with the exception of
matters of scienc®. In other words,
all the philosophical questions that
could ever be answered had been
answered, It was not a very ‘en-.
couraging thing to say, especially
to a group of idealistic young col-
lege students.
H’ford Professor
To Deliver Talk
On Amer. Indian
Theodore B. Hetzel, chairman of
Haverford’s Engineering Depart-
ment, will discuss ‘The Religion
of the American Indian,’’ Wednes-
day, May 4 at 7:30 p.m. in the
Common Room, The lecture, spon-
sored by Interfaith, will be
illustrated with Mr. Hetzel’s own
photographs of Indian life.
Mr. Hetzel’s.-*tavocational in-
terest,’”? the religious life of
modern American Indian tribes,
has in the past 14 years taken
him all over the U.S, He is par-
ticularly interested in the mis-
sionary work of the Quakers, in
working with tribes such as the
Seneca and Mohawk of New York
- State, where Christian beliefs have
been grafted onto the old ‘*Long-
house’? religion with its corn fes-
tivais and healing ceremonies.

or the ‘peyote religion’’ of the
Oklahoma Indians, is another ex-
arcole of a ‘‘blend that’s uniquely

" ..¢luded -- and Christian beliefs
and terminology. Mr. Hetzel will
also touch upon relations of var-
ious American Christian sects to
the modern Hopi, Navaho and
Alaskan ladians,
Boorstin very pointedly ignored
Vietnam and revealed his dislike
of Galbraith, by saying that the
term ‘‘affluent society’’ was very
crude and by making disparaging
remarks about Harvard. His lec-
ture itself was good but fairly
self-evident.
Tuesday was very exciting. Wal-
ter Kaufmann, the philosopher
from Princeton, spoke about myth
in literature, religion, and philoso-
phy. That night, Nelson’ Algren
gave a fascinating speech,
He was very bitter about our
being in Vietnam and, though it
wasn’t really relevant, had no com-
punction about saying that Lady
Bird ought to have a pillowcase put
over her cage to.stop her flutter-
ing. He was the one who talked
about cabbages. He felt that cab-
bages were neurotic and that their
peaceful appearance shouldn’t fool
anyone. He also said that anyone
who got up in the morning HAD
to be vaguely neurotic.
Tuesday, I also fell in with the
small and -harrassed end-the-war
group on the UNC campus, Ap-
parently several other symposium
guests did as, well, because one
UNC boy told me that he couldn’t
figure out why all of a sudden so
many people were agreeing with his
stand. At the moment UNC isplan-
ning a fast somewhat like ours,
I had to miss Wednesday’s
speakers because of plane times,
geology field trips and psychology
papers. But the formal speeches
themselves weren’t really the best
part. The best was. talking WITH
the speakers and the other stu-
dents.

Beethoven Mass
Outstanding Work
In Joint Concert
by Alice Ely Chapman, '66
The Bryn Mawr College Chorus
and the Haverford College Glee
Club, with the College Orchestra,
joined in concert Saturday night,
directed by Robert Goodale and
Robert Goss.
The concert began with a con-
certo for oboe and string orches-
tra by a Baroque composer, Mar-
cello.
Ed Hazzard, the soloist, gave
the work a warmth and vitality
which is often lacking in Baroque
music. He used ornamentation with
moderation. Alexander Blachly
(H’ford ’67), the conductor, showed
an acute understanding of the music
he’ was performing, keeping avery
good balance between the soloist
and the rest of the orchestra.
This was especially true in the
slow second movement, which was
very moving. The only factor which
did not enhance the work was the
pitch problem, especially in the
violin section.
The major work of the evening
was the’ Mass in C Major by
Beethoven,
The high point of the entire
-work. was the Credo, in which
Mr. Goodale brought out the great
contrast between the delicate and
robust often found in Beethoven.

lich, tenor, and Robert Goss, bari-~

Vietnam Commitment Justified,
Says Former HUAC Worker
by Cookie Poplin -
‘‘Our commitment here (in Viet-
nam) is legal and justified.’’ In
this statement Fulton Lewis II,
former research director for the
House Committee on Un-American
Activities, summarized his posi-
tion in regard to the controversial
issue April 18 at a lecture,spon-
sored by the Conservative Club
and Alliance.
Mr. Lewis considers himself a
‘*libertarian’’ rather than a ‘‘con-
servative’’ and based his subse-
quent argument on the thesis that
‘tthe rights of the individual are
supreme and cannot be subjected
to the dictates of the collective
will of society.’’
He began by trying to explain
the considerations behind the pres-
ent U.S, policy in Vietnam. ‘‘We
have respect for the sovereignty
of independent nations and inde-
pendent people,’’ he said; we have
no desire to expand. We are'merely
saying ‘‘no’’ to an aggressive dic-
tatorship. Mr. Lewis then con-
sidered the objections to govern-
ment position. He refuted those
who advocate isolationism or
‘¢status-quoism;’’ Vietnam is very
close to us, and ‘‘we are involved
in the world whether we want to be
or not,’’? He called the assertion
that the war in Vietnam is a civil
war ‘‘a fallacious interpretation,’’
and reminded the audience that
other aggressors, such as Hitler
in the Sudetenland, have used this
tactic to disguise aggression. One
should ask not where the members
of the NLF were born, but where
their allegiance lies, Since they are
loyal to the communist government
of North Vietnam, and, if the NLF
were set up in power, South Viet-
nam would not be independent of’
the North, Mr. Lewis concluded
that the war in Vietnam is not a
civil war.
He is not against negotiations;
the question, he insists, is when,
how, and with whom. He warned
the audience against what he con-
sidered Chgmberlain’s mistakes
at Munich; negotiating from a posi-.
tion of weakness, and appeasement.
There has as yet been noassurance,
the speaker continued, that nego-
tiations will end communist ag-
gression in southeast Asia, and he
pointed to the unrest in that area
over the extent of our commitment.
‘¢‘Where do we stop? If we sur-
render South Vietnam, will we
come to the defense of Thailand?
eee This is a showdown theater
that we are involved in ... The
‘price tag is the destiny of the en-
tire area.’?’ We must demonstrate
through strength that we will not
tolerate aggression.
Mr. Lewis considered — it
*tidiotic’’ to negotiate with the Viet
Cong; we must negotiate with the
real aggressors.
He went on to the problem ofthe
government in Vietnam, The height
of war, he said, is not the time

to have elections or self-deter-
mination; our first task should be
to bring peace to Vietnam. ‘‘We
are not just talking about elec-
tions,’’? he declared, ‘‘We are talk-
ing about FREE elections.’? He
admitted that the government in
South Vietnam has been far from
ideal, but he felt that as we joined
with Stalin to fight Hitler, here
too we should accept the lesser”
evil in order to overcome the
greater. We must seek, above all,
stability in the present govern-
ment.
Where do we go from here? Mr.
Lewis protested against a policy
according to which troops weré
ordered to do enough to die but not
enough to win. He noted that we
could put Haiphong, Hanoi, the Ho
Chi Minh Trail out of commission
from the air; he claimed further
that Red China has too much to
lose to enter the war,
The government and the country
must support their fighting men,
and in particular we should ensure
that dissident elements here do not
give support to. the enemy, as he
said Ronald Ramsey in Los Angeles
and the ‘*‘May Second Movement?’
have been doing. a
Mr. Lewis concluded emphati-
cally, ‘‘We should alter our at-
titudes as a nation and do what is
necessary in Vietnam.’’
Current May Day Rites Revealed

Today’s May Day festivities will
be Bryn Mawr’s 66th celebration
of this ancient holiday. In a 191;
May Day speech, President M.
Carey Thomas traced May Day
back to the grotto of the nymph
Egeria,
This tradition of revelry and
games evolved into the traditional
English May Day, from which the
Bryn Mawr § festivities
adopted.

Friday morning, the seniors will
sing the **Magdalen Hymn.’’
The. first May Day. celebration
at Bryn Mawr was held in 1900
to raise money for a ‘students’
building.’’ Since then May Day
has been celebrated annually. In
1920, the scope of activities was
increased tremendously, by pro-
ducing an authentic Elizabethan
May Day.

College Curriculum Adds
Variety of New Courses
Several new courses have been
added to next year’s curriculum,
and structural changes in some
of this year’s courses have been
made as well.
The Biology Department will be
offering a course in Advanced Gen-
etics and Evolution andthe Philos-
ophy Department will offer a 300
level course entitled Philosophies
Marx, and
Nietzsche, The Greek Department
will be offering a full unit of
Homer next year.
Many new courses have been
added by the History of Art De-
partment for next year, all at the
advanced level. Two semester
courses will concern Gothic Paint-
ing and Jan van Eyck, A third
course will concern the iconog-
raphy and style of Poussin and the
impact of his painting on the de-
velopment of Baroque:art. This
course requires a reading knowl-
edge of French. In addition the
department is offering a course on
Modern Architecture. This will in-
clude a brief survey of nineteenth
century developments and a study
of several twentieth century archi-
tects.
A course in Apocrypha and
Pseudepigrapha will be an addi-
tion to the department of History
highly acceptable.
of Religion. The Mathematics De-
partment has added several new
courses, including one on Number
Theory.
The Latin Department will have
two types of 100 level courses
in 1966-67. In addition to the
present 101 there will be a 103
for students whose preparation is
not as extensive.
The Psychology Department has
also made a change in its cur-
Yriculum. After the first semes-
ter of Introductory Psychology,
students will be able to choose
one or two courses at the same
level to complete their first year
of study. The second semester
choices are Comparative Psychol-
ogy and Social Psychology.
A new course entitled Medieval
Narrative: From Beowulf to Malo-
ry will be offered by the English
Department next year, This
course is open to juniors and
seniors only.
The French Department is of-
fering a new advanced course en-
titled Realism and Naturalism,
while the. Political Science De-
partment has made quite a few
changes and added several
courses, including The Soviet
Union and Eastern European Gov-

Miss de Laguna’s
Eskimo Find
Following is the second in a se- role in the establishment of the
ies of articles sponsored by cur-
riculum committee on members of
the Bryn Mawr faculty. -- Ed.
by Dorothy Hudig, '68
Miss Frederica de Laguna,
chairman of the Anthropology De-
partment here, is a Bryn Mawr
girl from childhood. Both of her
parents were professors of phil-
osophy here, She remembers
sleeping on the porch on Faculty
Row, and coming to Taylor for
entrance exams several times dur-
ing her high school years. During
her junior year of high school,
Miss de:Laguna’s parents went on
sabbatical to Europe, and sent her
to a lycée at Versailles, Later
she entered Bryn Mawr, where she
lived in Pem West and Radnor,
and earned her degree from the
joint department of political
science and economics.
No courses in anthropology were
available here then, Her interest
in the subject was inspired by her
father’s stories of life in the
Philippines and the diversity of
alien cultures, and by Elisha K.
Kane’s book “Arctic Explora-
tions,’? which she read when she
was about 13, Since that time she
has always been especially inter-
ested in Arctic Eskimos.
When she went tograduate school
at Columbia (Ph.D. 1933), Profes-
sor Franz Boas told her ‘there
would be no jobs in anthropology.’’
Unfortunately, he was right. When
the depression came, she found
her work at the Pennsylvania Mu-
seum was no longer funded, and
she was delegated as a ‘‘cata-
aaa receiving $15 a week
nder WPA, and later only $13.45
a week.
But job opportunities or not,
Miss de Laguna had already com-
pleted much work in anthropology.
As a doctoral candidate, she went
on a Danish government survey to
Greenland with the Eskimo expert
Therkel Mathiassen. :
Also, as a graduate student,
she ‘discovered’? the Eyak In-
dians, or rather rediscovered their
true identity. The tribe of about
20 surviving members was believed
to be Eskimos with Tlingit in-
fluences, but from a follow-up on
a clue, the tribe was established
as independent and ‘‘forgotten.’’
The clue came from the U.S.
marshall in Prince Williams Sound
during a 1930 survey of the Indians
there. Miss de Laguna had gone
to the marshall to try to geta skiff
that belonged to the local bootleg-
ger. One of the marshall’s re-
marks was, ‘‘There are three
breeds of cats hefe,’’ which in-
trigued Miss de Laguna with the
possibility of a ‘‘third breed.’’
Differences in language and cul-
ture provided supporting evidence
for the claim, Dr. Edward Sapir
completed the, language ‘‘diag-
‘nosis.’? Today Michael Kraus
(University of Alaska), the main
expert on Athabaskan Indian
languages, is doing further work on
the Eyak, He found Miss de La-
guna’s field notes ‘‘invaluable’’
because she wrote down phonetic
text sentences, rather than merely
vocabulary. Last Sunday, her re-
search was paid the high compli-
ment of a 1-1/2 hour cross-con-
tinent phone call. Yukon Island in
Cook Inlet, which was first ex-
cavated and surveyed by the party
. led by Miss de Laguna, was de-
clared a national historical monu-
ment by the U.S in 1965. Miss
de Laguna greatly prizes a medal
awarded her by the Homer Society
of Natural History in honor of her

landmark. Even the Alaskan boot-
legger gained from the discovery:
he was in jail, and was delighted
to get rent for his skiff.
In 1938,.Miss de Laguna taught
the first anthropology course at
Bryn Mawr, later became chair-
man of the currently joint Depart-
ments of Sociology and Anthropol- ,
During Artistic- Artsy Arts Night
by Eleanor von Auw
It is a remarkable fact. about
this year’s Arts Night that no
single number and no ‘‘repre-
sentative’’ selection from thepro-
gram could be taken as indicating
or containing the essence of the
whole show, the spirit that warmed
ogy. Right now Miss de Laguna \the audience assembled in Skinner
has been elected President of the
American Anthropology Associa-
tion, and will assume office this
November.
What is ‘*Bryn Mawr’’ to Miss
de Laguna? She is just as devoted
as she was when she was an under=
graduate when she claimed, ‘A
broken rule undermines the com-
munity,’? and led a campaign to
allow smoking on campus because
infraction of rules reflected on the
reputation of the college. Her bro-
ther went to Haverford. Today she
is seeing further development of
her vocation, as the Anthropology
and Sociology Departments become
separate next year.
om)Friday evening, April 22, toa
m of delighted enthusiasm.
Perhaps its source can be found
in the sparkling introductions and
inter-act frolics of Lynne Meadow,
Ronnie Scharfman, and Mike
Moore. Mike’s_deviltrously grin-
ning face seemed to peer through
every interstice in the action.
Maybe too it is to be found in
the marvelous interplay, some-
times overt (even to the point of
blatancy), sometimes unobtrusive-
ly silent, of ‘‘cul-chah’’ and
*cul-ture.’’ For this was.a pro-
gram that mingled the artistic,
the artsy, and.the unpretentiously
hilarious in an exuberant variety
that yet could boast unity and co-
herence. This particular ‘‘two cul-
tures’ dialogue’’ was a very happy
and pleasant one, no element of ten-
sion intruding except possibly in
Vernon Haskell’s. description of
his **Theme and Variations’’ as
“real culture,’’ which epithet,
while ostensibly humorous, was not
entirely convincing as toits having
been spoken in good humor.
The renditions of the J. Edgar
Hoover Memorial Jug Band and
the excerpts from the Dance Con-
cert in their marked contrast to one
another perhaps best represent the
extremes in tone of the whole. The
former capitalized on the general
informality and careless gaiety and
on the close contact betw¢en those
on the stage and those_in—the
seats below them. The latter (parts
of Liz Schneider’s ‘‘the mind is
its own beautiful prisoner’’ and
Alice Leib’s ‘*Synapse’’) instead

created an artificial sense of
distance, the dancers seeming to be
elevated far above the spectators.
This performance was easily the
most serious, surely the most in-
tense, number on the program.
The Renaissance Choir’s sing-
ing of several madrigals, led al-
ternately by Ed Hazzard and Steve
Bonine, was the first feature of the
program, And even asthe excerpts
from the Dance Concert would
naturally have been shown to better
advantage in an auditorium that
placed a greater distance between
the performers and the audience,
so the Choir’s selections could
have been given with more effect
in a hall with greater possibilities
of resonance. Nonetheless, the
light, fine tunes provided a pecul-
iarly appropriate introduction to
the eyening.
Perhaps the most original per-
formance of the night -- particu-
larly in the medium (or mediums)
it employed -- was Janie Paul’s

Penn Institutes Pass-Fail § ystem: DIscaUNT RECORDS Baibge Foe 2 ey
Would It Apply To Bryn Mawr?
by Lynne Lackenbach
“The University of Pennsylvania
will institute a pass-fail grading
system next fall in its undergrad-
uate schools. The new system will
allow students to take a limited
‘number of.courses under pass-
fail grading.
The new plan is entirely the
work of the student body. In Jan-
uary, the Committee of Instruc-
tion of the College asked the Stu-
dent Committee on Undergraduate
Education to draw up a plan for a
pass-fail grading system. The re-
sulting proposal was presented to
the Committee and approved, and
similar action was later taken by
the corresponding committees of |
the College for Women and the
Wharton School. The faculty ap-
proved the proposed system on
April 5, clearing the way for its
introduction next fall.
The system itself, in which a
designated number of courses may
be taken without a specific letter
grade other than ‘‘pass’’ (A-D) or
‘¢fail,’’ includes the following pro-
visions:
- Each undergraduate may elect to
take six of the 40 course units re-
quired for graduation on a pass-
fail basis. No more than two of
these courses may be taken in any
given term, and-no pass-fail option
may be used in major, school, or
group (distribution) requirements.
Freshmen may not take courses
for pass-fail, and students are not
‘obliged to take any courses as
pass-fail. Further, students must
register as pass-fail students at
the beginning of the course.
Should a student decide to major
in a field in which he has previous-
ly taken a pass-fail course, and the
department will not accept this as
fulfilling its major requirements,
the student has two options; he may
request that the letter grade he
received in the course be con-
sidered by the department, in which
case he will still have used one of
his six pass-fail options; or he
may, with departmental permis-
sion, take another course to fulfill
the requirement,
In crowded class_ sections,
majors and graded students will
always have preference for places
over pass-fail students andvaudi-
tors.
Under the proposed pass-fail
plan, professors will continue to
-grade all students -according to
normal procedure; the final. mark
will be transposed to pass or fail
by the recorder. There will be no
need even to inform professors

ten of the architect’s work,‘‘Kahn’s
effort to make architectural form
coincide with real and symbolic
functions _has — profoundly _im-
pressed students and influenced his
peers -- more perhaps than any
other architectural philosophy
since Mies’ work in the forties.’’
Vincent Scully, Professor of the
History of Art at Yale, says in
his recorded narration at the ex-
hibition, ‘‘Structure, light, the re-
lationship to nature and to other
buildings -- how many the funda-
mentals of architecture are. Over
the years, over the past 15 years
especially, Louis I. Kahn -- surely
America’s most inventive archi-
tect -- has grown step by step in
them all.’’
which students have registered for
pass-fail, though the information
will probably not be classified.
According to the student com-
mittee which drew up the plan,
the proposed grading system will
offer five unique advantages;
1) It will lessen pressure for
grades by offering the student a
chance to study a certain number
of courses for no end other than
knowledge of the material. While
the committee feels that grades are
to some degree necessary, ‘the
pass-fail system would reinforce
an attitude towards learning as an
end rather than as a means,’’
2) The pass-fail system will
allow a student to explore areas
of knowledge in which he has in-
terest but little talent or aptitude
and provide him with an opportunity
to obtain a more liberal education.
3) Since a pass-fail system
should encourage cross-disciplin-
ary study, a variety of viewpoints
will hopefully be introduced into
more Classes.
4) The pass-fail system would
provide -an opportunity to~ study
the effect of grades on student
motivation and performance, since
for the first few years at least,
all teachers.would report letter
grades for their pass-fail students
along with the grades for their
regular students. A committee
could compare the grades of the
two groups to check on the effects
of the system.
5) The system should encourag.
the addition of experimental
courses to be conducted strictly
on a. pass-fail basis. If such
courses proved valuable, they
could then be included in the regular
curriculum under the standard
grading system. s
Opponents to the pass-fail sys-
tem object that it would tend to
~fower overall class quality and
overload certain classes with
pass-fail students. They also fear
that some departments will erect
barriers to pass-fail students,
especially in advanced courses.
The student committee respon-
sible for the plan feel that the pro-
posed system will minimize these
difficulties if they appear at all.

WORLDS IN COLLISION 5.95
Since the publication of Worlds In Collision
in 1950—probably the most discussed book
of this generation—a dramatic array of sub-
stantiating evidence has come up in the fields
of astronomy, geology, and archaeology.
Many of Dr. Velikovsky’s assumptions that
were regarded as contradicting the estab-
lished views in science are now verified and
confirmed by new discoveries. Worlds In
Collision is a fascinating prediction of scien-
tific re-awakening and spectacular findings.
AGES IN CHAOS.................5.95
**Dr. Velikovsky discloses immense erudition
and extraordinary ingenuity. He writes well
and documents all his statements with the
original sources . . . His conclusions are
amazing, unheard of, revolutionary, sensa-
tional. . . If Dr. Velikovsky is right, this vol-
ume is the greatest contribution to the inves-
tigation of ancient times ever written.”’

abilities, even required gym. One
thousand points may sound im-
possible, but points are awarded
generously and it is amazing how
quickly they add up.
