- Welsh Born Oxford Classicist:
Compares ‘Amherst Bryn Mawr

“by” Miranda Marvin 63

“T would call the change from
Amherst to.Bryn Mawr going from
play boys to work girls,” said Bryn
Mawr’s new Instructor in Greek and
Latin, grinning broadly.

“Girls are more docile,” (his Ox-
ford English made it “doe-cile”) con-
tinued ‘Anthony John, Marshall,
This sit-
uation seems not anrelated to the

fact. that he himself is young, hand- |
-- some, and unmarried.

‘Born in South Wales, “just down
the coast from Dylan Thomas,” Mr.
Marshall was educated there until

“he went “abroad to England” for

college. In school he learnt to speak
Welsh. The proper pronunciation
of Bryn Mawr, he explained, is ap-
proximately “Brun Mauer.”

Upon_ leaving Wales, Mr. Mar-
shall: spent six years: ‘at Wadham
College, Oxford, four as an under-
graduate and two in research work
for a. B.Litt. =

It is after the Great Hall at Wad-
ham that the main reading room of
the Bryn Mawr library is modelled,
and the resemblance, according to
Mr. Marshall, is close- enough to be
“excrutiating.”

Late Roman Republic

Mr. Marshall took his degree in
“litterae humaniores,” the |
Classics course, unchanged in es-
sence since the Middle Ages. The

“late Roman Republic is his particu-

lar interest,

On- the. shelf. behind his-desk- sits
a’ carbon copy of. his B.Litt thesis,
“Proconsular Administration of Jus-
tice in Asia Minor in the Late Re-
public with Special Reference to
Cicero in Cicilia.”. Ruefully he re-
ports that he could not keep it from
being “dreadfully dull.”

Of Oxford he said that it. “tends
to ‘dladbanize one.’
tration on each discipline as a
science is, he’ feels, the culprit.

The university system, under yin 5
‘ a. student takes university exams/

only twice in his college career, and
receives marks. in his, finals. as the
only “grade” he gets to determine
how he graduates,. strikes Mr. Mar-
shall’ as less fair than our system
of an accumulated average. He. re-

ports also that the tremendous pres- |"
“.. gure--built- up » over these exams

produces at least three or. four un-
dergraduate suicides every year.
What led Mr. Marshall to Oxford
and to Classics? “I was. sort of
sucked along in the vacuum my
brother left; rather like a small car

- stuck behind a big ‘truck.”

It was this .elder brother, .who

who.was also responsible for Mr:
Marshall’s coming to the. United
States...
suggested his younger brother’ as a
good replacement for a eauaasied on
a year’s sabbatical,

Once, reports Mr.- ‘Marshail, he
tried for a career other than Clas-
sits,
“ret Service, but after carefully prov-

‘jing that I wasn’t a Communist or

“Fascist or anything, I failed all the

. exams.’

His year at Amherst ‘he anioved
immensely. He found the boys there
terribly shrewd and far more world-
ly-wise than: their counterparts. in
England, They were, however, dis-
tressingly ignorant, badly prepared
in school.. “They used’ their intelli-
gence to avoid knowledge.”

Their social life he found fascin-
‘ating. “I was adopted as a sort

of mascot by a couple of the fra-|



basic:

The concen-|

“K teacher at.Amherst, he|-

“J applied for the British See-t.

“/ternities, and I used to go to their
parties where I saw scenes. I- had
never seen.in staid* old England.”
The American student’s “technique
of hedonism” and ability to “organ-
ize an orgy” came in for amazed
comment,

At Oxford, he relates, “one Stands
around and drinks sherry and talks.
‘You can’t go into a. restaurant with-
out hearing the bay of undergradu-
ate. voices. finishing. off-God.”

Although his’ prime interest ~ at
the moment is research, Mr. Marshall
found .at-Amherst. that. he enjoyed
-teaching. His eyes lit up as he re-
membered the farm. boy from Mon-
tana who had discovered the delight |!
of poetry in his Catullus class.

The attraction of Bryn Mawr,
apart from “a certain. curiosity to see
what a .girl’s college was like,” was

- Injustice in the Language Orals:

How,many,.Seniors this. year will be deprived of their
diplomas by the language orals? . The annual ‘phenomenon
of otherwfse“superior students failing to graduate because
they could not master ‘the -intricacies of German word order

~ How did this happen? Bryn Mawr is almost unique ‘in
requiring two languages; but it is surely, not impossible for

thinking ahead, for not remembering Freshman year that
three years is not eternity, and that someday the oral must

‘It is, however, exactly because most Freshmen cannot

only American ‘to be in such a
camp. She. learned everything
about the Yugoslav’s life from..his
love of folk music and cowboy
songs to his government’s endea-

Such work ‘camps as Kathy was
in are. madé“up of yolvnteers~ be-
betweén_16-20-yearsold; There are
1200 youths divided into 12 camps
altogether,.and Kathy compared
their method of organization tg
that of NSA’s — except for the
government sponsorship. The
camps help to build roads, parks,
and sometimes. houses. Essentially
they’ govern themselves, Kathy
said, having meetings to discuss
the problems and decisions which
come up in daily life

Such efforts by the Yugoslavs to
relax the rigid totalitarianism of
the Marxist line (which Kathy
interpreted as an advanced form
of Communism) are criticized by
the other satellite nations. = __

Kathy found a vast’ difference
‘in Whe Commish” oF “Czéthosio-

Next summer, Kathy says she’ll

thing. But what. she saw of. the.



motherhood, call for a reform in
the whole social system.

“A rational and psychologically
balanced view would appreciate and
enjoy the ways that women are
truly different from men, and _ it

would recognize that in most re-'~

spects, they have far more in com-
mon with men than our society is
willing to. grant.” :

This view may be snatched up
by the present-day suffragettes,
but when it comes to the elemental
female; the “having more’in com-
mon with men” is a terrible idea—
at least as far as the concept of
equality goes. How horrible to be
equal with men! How much more
rewarding is the. position of a fe-
male who ‘relies on a man osten-

causes him to do her bidding. As

an equal, a female could not do —
this. But “an infinitely powerful, -
seemingly inferior female could. -

And does!

The rest of the supplement deals
with specific types of females and
the problems and: rewards consis-
tent with these types.

“Speaking for the Working
Class Wife” is an-excellent view
of a strong individual who has. not

wasted time in reflection onthe .

impossibility of improving her
state. The fresh, clean -attitude of

the article is heartening in con-

trast to the’ degenerate, too-deeply
inspected female of the lead article.

The next article, “The Decline
and. Fall--of -Fashion,” takes the
‘evolution of the typical ready-
made, fashion-plate woman from
the old-time elegante, and reveals

‘the hi-jinks of merchandising that’

make her what she is: able to
wear purple house-boots with com-
plete assurance, —

The supplement rolls along with
a desk-banging “Tale of Women,
Politics and the New Frontier,’
which defies analysis. _

Other noteworthy articles: “Sec-

ond Chance—New Education for
Women” may be good to file when
some of us, regretting housewifery
and refusing to:be caged by it, try
to get back into our old alma ma-
ter. According to Mrs. Raushen-
bush of Sarah Lawrence’s ‘new
“salvage operation,”- the Center

sibilities for middle-aged study are
becoming more and more a reality.

_. Students Consider
GOP Platform For Coming Election _

_ Unbiased Opinion |

' Partisans of the Democratic and !

Republican parties will havé an
_ opportunity to find out more about
the organization of campaigns and

to help their parties’ candidates in

the races for Governor and United

States,aSenator in Pennsylvania.

In the contest for Governor of
the state, Richardson Dilworth. the
Democratic mayor of (Philadelphia,
is running against William Scran-
ton, Republican Congressman and
former Special ~ Assistant to. the
Secretary of State.

In his years as mayor, Mr. Dil-
worth has concerned himself with
programs in the fields of transpor-

_ tation, housing and redevelopment,
health and welfare. He serves as

President of the U.S. Conference

of Mayors and of the American

Municipal Association.

Mr. Scranton has tried to bring
industrial plants. to Pennsylvania
in order to provide more job op’
portunities. He worked to save In-
ternational Correspondence Schools,
a Pennsylvania industry employ-
_ing 1000 men and women: He sup-

“ports air” pollution control arid ur-

fan. renewal.

Challenging the incumbent, Sen-
ator Joseph Clark (Democrat), -is
Republican, James Van Zandt, a
member of the United States Con-
gress since 1939.

Senator. Clark ,has pel leg-
islation that would promote civil
rights, voted for medical care for
the aged under Social . Security and
advocated increased Social Secur-
ity benefits, a higher minimum
wage, extension .of ynemployment
compensation, help for small busi-

~ ness and help for the _ewially

: farmer. =

He supports “disarmament un-
‘der world law” ‘and increased mi}-
itary appropriations. He has
campaigned for flood control pro-
jects, coal research and anthracite
mine subsidence study in Pennsyl-
vania. His Clark Emergency ‘Pub-
lic Works Bill. aims at creating
more jobs for the unemployed in
this state. _

Representative Van Zandt’s
campaign stresses better housing,
betber transportation, practical re-
development. of troubled = urban
areas and greater. employment in
‘Pennsylvania. He serves as a sen-

ior member of the House Armed |*

Services. Committee and has tra-
veled widely to study our military
needs. He is also a’ member of the’
Joint Committee on MA tomic
Energy.

Republican supporters, led by’
Caroline Roosevelt, club president,
‘will work through the Young Re-
publicans “of Philadelphia arid the
Council in
this area. 2

Young Democrats, with Harriet
Bograd at their head, will join the

~ Because Pennsylvania is one of
those fortunate states in which the
gubernatorial candidate is not run-
ning with an eye on the ’64 Presi-
dential nomination, the Republican
platform in the race for governor-
ship is mainly concerned with the
esoteric interests of the sfate,

William Scranton, Republican can-
didate for governor, has shown con-
cern for the welfare of Pennsylvania
in promises to name a state highway
commission to help plan and admin-

ister-a-vast highway-network, ‘to -re-

form. the state civil service program,
and to cut state spending, while
making the tax ia Me hc
more efficient.

The building of support for ‘a
high-speed mass transportation sys-
tem is one of the main planks in
the Scranton platform, and it in-
cludes a promise to try to get’ Wash-
ington funds for construction of the
Pennsylvania turnpike.

The proposed reform of the state
civil service. system has. the dual

purpose of promoting more efficient’

state government (with an effort to
cut state ~spending-.and. keep taxes
down) and eliminating corruption
in. Pennsylvania -which is a -result
of the use of civil service as an in-
strument of “machine politics.”

Scranton has stated that the state
budget could be cut by as much as
$90 million (9%: of the budget),
and at the same time the system of
sales -tax . collection could be made
more effective, possibly by restoring
a 2% commission to retailers who
collect the four per cent sales tax.
(This commission was voted out in
1961. )

Scranton’ has blasted ‘the machine
politics and corruption of the Demo-
cratic administration. Among other
things, he has indicated that, if
elected, he will have a state probe
in an attempt. to “cleafiMup” state
government, especially in Philadel-
phia. (That is, providing that there
is no grand jury investigation.)

Scranton has also said that he is
interested in support of urban re-
cnewal projects and further efforts
in education. He has criticized the
state Democrats for the lack of in-
“dustrial development ‘in Pennsylva-
nia during. the administration, since
this industrial stagnation -has re-
sulted in failure to provide enough
employment in “the state.

In the senatorial race, Republi-
can candidate James Van Zandt ‘has
shown special concern over the pro-
posals for more Federal ‘spending
(resulting in higher taxes) that
have been made in Congress by the
Democratic
Clark.

The Pennsylvania race -is..of. ma-
jor importance in the national po-
litical picture, partly because of
President Kennedy’s narrow victory
inthe race in-1960,--Because —the
margin was so small, the results of
state elections may have ‘heavy in-
fluence on administration policies.
Certainly if the Republicans win in
certain states (i.e. Ohio, California,
New York, Michigan, Pénnsylvania),
it will be interpreted as disapproval
of the Kennedy programs, whereas
Democratic victories in these states
would be a “go ahead” signal for

bigger and bolder (?) New. Frontier



policies.
