_ Aeeording to Director Jane Wil-
son, this year’s junior class de-
cided to try ‘‘something new’? and
in its organizational meeting last
spring decided to “gamble. on” a’
satire’ written by Marianne Lust
and Marsha Feinland rather than
utilize the traditional theme.
Jane revealed, ‘‘ ‘Rosencrantz
and- Guildenstern Were Lovers’
is. a literary parody based on
Shakespeare which punches at
modern things. A series of Shakes-
pearean tales are satirized with
a definite subplot connecting all
of them.”*
‘’The. Show includes a presen-
tation of ‘Hamlet’ with a take-
off on Marat-Sade and sidelines of
Peter Pan, The ‘Rise and Death
of George Macbeth’ is based on
‘who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
ahd ‘Romeo and Juliet” 18a pars ~

First Injured Vietnamese
Arrive For Treatment
Three war-maimed Vietnamese
children arrived in San Francisco
last week, They are the first
children brought to this country
by the Committee of Responsibi-
lity for War-Burned and War-In-
jured Vietnamese children,
The Committee was organized
for the purpose of providing
medical care in the United States
for as many injured Vietnamese
children. as possible, Many Bryn
Mawr students have been involved
with the committee, andwas raised
for it on campus last year, Pre-
parations over the past year for
the evacuation of these children
have included a massive fund-
raising drive, recruiting of doctors
and hospital facilities (over 500
physicians offered their services,
and 8 cities across the country
pledged hospital beds to COR),
and setting up arrangements with
the Ministry of Health in Vietnam,
One of the three arrivals is
a twelve year old boy so severely
burned that little hope was held
for him when he left Vietnam,
Now, however, he is receiving
proper medical attention and has
improved, The others werea seven
year old girl and a fourteen year
old boy, both of whom suffered
deformities from grenade and
artillery blasts, They will pro-
bably undergo plastic surgery in
the near future,
. A number of problems were
encountered in arranging for the
evacuation of these children ac-
cording to Dr, Herbert Needleman,
Assistant Professor of Psychiatry
at Temple University, National
Chairman of the Committee of
Responsibility, and Drewdie Gil-
pin, who is a member of _ the
national committee, First of all,
the Vietnamese Ministry of Health
surrounded the project with so
much red tape regarding the child-
rens’ leaving the country that it
threatened to retard COR per-
manently, On a visit to South Viet-
nam last July, Dr, Needleman con-
ferred with the Ministry and
eliminated some of the hold-ups.

at Pentagon
mately 425 men from Oakland,
Chicago, Boston, New York, Phila-

on page 3 for details of the demon-
strations here.)
' Tuesday through Friday of this
week, local draft resistance unions
conducted an intensive campaign
of leaflet distribution, draft board
pressuring and public education
on the war.
Tomorrow the groups will con-
verge on Washington, meeting at
10:30 “in front of the Lincoln
Memorial for a rally including
speakers Dr. Benjamin Spock,
Donald Duncan, Dave Dellinger
and Julian Bond. The marchers
will proceed to the Pentagon in
two groups, one planning civil
disobedience and one preferring
to protest-within the law.
The former faction will go as
close to the headquarters as
possible and either sit-in, storm
the building or hinder work within
the building.
Miss McBride stated that the
college as an institution was not
providing bail money for Bryn
Mawr students. Dean Lyons of
Haverford was not very hopeful
that their money would be sufficient
to handle Bryn Mawr bail. Glen
Nixon, chairman of Haverford’s
Social Action Committee, advised
students to etther $50
with them, or have the name of a
friend or relative who could wire
the cash if needed.
Miss McBride and the deans will
be in their offices in Taylor Satur-
day morning, and all are planning
to be in their homes Saturday after-
noon, They will accept collect tele-
phone calls from students. They
will then call anyone whom the stu-

Undergrad Asks
For Dues Hike
‘‘Should) Undergrad dues be
raised?’? was the topic discussed
at an open Undergrad meeting
held Monday, October 16,
‘‘yes” was the overwhelming
opinion expressed by representa-
tives of the member organizations.
As a result, Undergrad has pro-
posed a dues hike of $10 - $20
per student, as well as a new sys-
tem of payment,
At present, each Bryn Mawr
student is required to pay $14
($7 per semester, automatically
charged to Payday), $3 of which
actually goes to THE COLLEGE
NEWS. Under the proposed sys-
tem, a single Undergrad bill would
be mailed to the student’s home
at the end of the year.
Lola Atwood, president of
Undergrad, explains, ‘‘a $20 dues
raise would give us a bang-up
budget to work with, but $10 would
give us enough for us to cope
with what we can’t pay for now,
plus some for expansion in Arts
Council and Social Committee.
“$1.50 from every student
means $1,000 for Undergrad, Dues
of $25 per student would double
the Undergrad budget.”’
The 1967-1968 Undergraduate
Budget distributes $8,250 among
Alliance, Arts Council, Athletic
Association, League, Self-Govern-
ment Association, Curriculum
Committee, Social Committee,
various clubs, and Undergrad

its adoption of the new drug ‘statement

on the drug issue which more nearly
expresses concern for the well-being of

The. Self-Gov statement on drugs
now reads:
Because drugs are illegal and potentially dangerous

We have

there were two main sources of possible
violence:
the black militants and the
fact that permits for the march had not
been granted,
Neither of these holds
much danger now, The black militants

There will be many marshals to keep

isolate any incident that occurs. State-

and most of the marchers will have

To the Editor:
I read in the last bine of the

I do not and, in fact, have been

gress the Dance Club has made in
‘the three years I have been at
Bryn Mawr.
In view of the concerts of the
last two years it seems obvious that
Dance Club is ready to become a
major élement of the cultural scene
at Bryn Mawr and Haverford. I am
‘always pleased to see the kind of
creative effort and enthusiasm they
are exhibiting and look forward to
both their Christmas and spring
concerts.
As for the and sets: this
is done + ona voluntary basis.
No student has to work on these
projects if he does not wish to or
does not he has the time. The
fact remains -that there are a

There are only so many weak
ends during the year. All of our
performing arts plan to draw their
audience from both campuses. So
when the Dance Concert is
scheduled at Bryn Mawr on the
same night as an orchestra concert
at Haverford neither of these have
the audiences, the quality and effort
put into them deserve. The Bryn
Mawr College Theatre and the
Haverford Drama Clubdecided last
spring that as a gesture of recog~
nition to the problem and in hope of
mustering all the effort and talent
available in a more concentrated
way, we would plan two instead of
three major productions for the
academic. year of 1967-68. This is
not a policy that a future group is
obliged to continue. It is an experi-
ment and its merit 7 ote

Statement Favoring Resistance
Issued by Bryn
The above statement supporting draft
resistance was drawn up recently by four
‘Bryn Mawr students--Sally Dimschultz,
Jackie Gilberg, Kathy Murphy, and Kathy
Soffer--and read at an outdoor rally on
campus Thursday, October 12.
Twenty-five students signed the state-
ment at that time, and more signatures
are being sought.
The statement was conceived as exe
pressing the involvement of women, as
well as men, in the draft. Personal
reasons for being concerned about the
draft would gain strength and coherence
in a group statement, it was thought.
Mrs, Kraus, who recently returned
from a trip to North Vietnam, responded
to the students’ statement supporting draft
resistance at the rally. Having spoken
to many North Vietnamese women, she
emphasized the role of women, whether
Vietnamese or American, in resisting
‘the policies of a government which is
destructive to their families and to their-
country.
After more signatures on the statement
are collected, it will probably be sent to
a Congressman, and released tothepress.
However, its authors hope that while girls
declare their support for - resisting a
selective service.system and a war which
on a draft information and counselling
leaflet to be given out at high schools
affect and hurt them;’ they will feel a
commitment to actively give support.
The statement might possibly be printed

Students Consider
Civil Disobedience
The.October 21st Mobilization in Wash-
ington will differ from earlier marches
against the war in Vietnam in its call
for civil disobedience.
Last Sunday, in Haverford’s Union, J,
Barton Harrison of the Philadelphia branch
of the American Civil Liberties Union
spoke to about 30 students and faculty
members from Bryn Mawr and Haverford
who are :considering committing civil
disobedience tomorrow in Washington.
Harrison outlined the procedure of an
arrest, and gave hints such as ‘‘do not
resist arrest.’’
In a case of resisting arrest, it be-
comes the policeman’s word against the
person he arrested, and it is almost
impossible in court to determine who
is telling the truth. Harrison said itis
better to go along, although the person
has a right to ask the policeman his
name and badge number. He said that
this often makes the officer think more
carefully about his actions.
The actual civil disobedience will take
place outside the Pentagon as protestors
will attempt to block the entrances to
the building. No violence is planned.
Until a few days ago, the authorities
had flatly refused to grant the permits
for the march because of its openly
lawless aspects. Now it seems clear
that the permits have been granted. ;
Harrison emphasized ‘the difficult and
sometimes ffightening job of the police
in situations of mass protests. He also
explained that it may be up to 24 hours
before bail is set, so students should
not expect to return on the bus if they
vare arrested.

The ‘Bandhok Theater is

pears here lest it be lost
completely in subsequent super-

charming theater, with a good

the way a theater should be run.
And the Russian version
of ‘‘Hamlet,’’ now playing at the
Bandbox, exemplifies the way a

the way a movie should look and

tainly a movie with Shakespeare,
Pasternak, and Shostakovich
- among its credits has someassets «
in looking and sounding and af-
fecting, and they are taken
advantage of magnificently.
The movie describes itself
as ‘‘after the tragedy by William
Shakespeare,’’ and that is only
fair. It treats its dramatic basis
with dignity, but without rigidity.

English viewer may be surprised
at the omission of ‘‘This above

followed by a lengthy discourse,
and a few. similar sections, but
their absence only points up their
basic superfluity; they: may be

There is gratifyingly much verbal

blatantly for foreign distribution
that lines are kept toa minimum
to facilitate subtitling, and the
subtitles are lucid and intelligent,
though one might wonder about
the exact nature of the lines ren-
dered ‘hey nonny, nonny ho,”
This is a very Russian ‘‘Ham-

are unmistakeable touches: the
broadfaced courtiers, the carts

some of the most memorable emo-

" music strrounding Ophelia is quite
perfect; it, plus, the awed pity on
the faces of the court combine
to produce one of the most af-

Also, there is a point after the
arrival of the players: when the
background percussion is supple-
mented by Hamlet’s nervous tap-
ping of a drum head, and ten-
sion rises until his anguished
scream is almost the audience’s

Bryn Mawr Trust, Vietnam Summer
Explain Their Two Opposing Positions
BANK'S STATEMENT
Several weeks ago, a group of
Bryn Mawr students met to dis-
cuss the Bryn Mawr Trust Com-
pany’s treatment of Mainline
Viemam Summer. The major
question raised. was: Should. we
withdraw our accounts as a -pro-
test measure? A letter was sub-
sequently written to the Bank,
Stating that we felt Mainline
Vietnam Summer was a legitimate
organization and should have been
‘permitted to open an account, We
asked the Bank for a policy state-
ment.
. On October 4, I received the
following letter:
Your letter concerning Vietnam
Summer indicates a misunder-
standing of the reason thata check-
ing account in this name was not
If you wish to know the reason
why we could not open this account,
please call-on us ---,
Mr. Paul, the treasurer, phoned
me shortly. ‘thereafter and asked
me to come to the Bank for a talk.
Then in conference the President,
Vice-President, and Treasurer
outlined the Bank’s position.
Firstly they stressed that the
Bank’s action was non-political,
that they did not discriminate
politically unless the organization
was a threat to national security.
Bank’s Responsibility
However, the Bank requires that
the organization’ be recognized,
especially if its members solicit
funds from the public. In other
words, the Bank must fulfill its
responsibility toward the public by
making sure the organization has
proper authority or a‘‘resolution.’’
A ‘‘resolutionis 1) authority from
the parent group, either at the
state or national level and/or 2)
the authorization of the group itself,
stating that those opening the
account have the power to write
checks. Paul stressed that EVERY
organization wishing to open an
account had to meet one of these
two requirements.
Paul said he asked Chuck Bres-
jm ed Decatine he. dia vant him. °
Summer Project was considered
autonomous, and he answered that
had he known this, he might have
waived that requirement,
Lack of Communication
To fulfill 2) of the ‘‘resolution,”’
Bresler submitted a statement
signed by himself and the vice-
president (Vietnam Summer only
had two elected officers). However,
the Bryn Mawr Trust Company re-
quired the signatures of. four
officers. When I pointed this out to
Paul, he replied that had he known -
there were only two officers, he
would have changed the require-
ment.
In conclusion, the Bank stressed
that its decision was. apolitical. and
‘that there was probably a lack of
communication between Mainline ©
Vietnam ‘Summer and the Bryn
M Trust.

VIETNAM
SUMMER’S STATEMENT
There seems to be a great deal
of confusion concerning the re-
fusal of the Bryn Mawr Trust
Company to, accept a checking
account from. the Main Line Viet-
nam Summer Project. On behalf of
the project, I would like to clarify .
what happened.
As co-ordinator, I went to the
Haverford branch office of the
Trust to open a checking account.
I spoke with a Mrs. John, received
the necessary forms and explained
to her that the project was pri-
marily educational in nature and
was formed to bring the facts of -
the Vietnam War to people on the
Main Line. When I returned the
forms the next day signed by two
peas. S&, Mrs. John refused to
accept them and said thatthe Trust
had decided not to open the account.
When pressed for an.explanation,
she said that the account was *‘con-
troversial’’ and that the bank didn’t
want it. Apolitical?
Just Following Orders
To me, this is like a restaurant
owner refusing to serve a Negro
the Trust’s Main office and was
referred to Mr. Paul. I met with
him and explained in detail the
program of the Project. He men-
tioned several times that the bank
did not have to accept any account
it’ did not want, and even threw
in’ the*fact that the bank receives
*‘yery strict.orders . from the
Treasury Department and the
Federal Reserve Board’? about
accepting accounts from organiza-
tions ‘unfavorable to our govern-
ment.’?
I emphasized that the local group
was completely autonomous, and
that there was no question of trans-
fer of funds to any foreign govern-
ment or even to any other organi -
zation, national or local. We were
opening an account to deposit con-
‘tributions which would be used
primarily to pay for the literature
which we hoped to distribute.
“With respect to the fact that we
-had elected only two officers, Paul
said that the Project appeared
‘skimpy’ and that he wanted to
know more about its ‘‘depth,” i.e.
who some of the people interested
in it were. I explained ‘that the
Project was composed mostly of
Haverford and Bryn Mawr faculty
and students, members of the local
community, and that we felt that
two officers were all that were
needed. Paul’s current statement
that he did not know there were
only two officers is completely
false. He knew it, and he knew
why.
Bank’s Demands
I left samples of the literature
we were planning to distribute,
minutes of our meetings and an
outline of our summer plans for
him to study, as well as the re-
solution of the Project, signed by
the two officers, and awaited his
decision. Two days later, I was
told by Paul that the bank would
accept the account only if (1) he
received a letter from the national
Vietnam Summer office in Cam-
bridge authorizing us to open. the
account and (2) we would elect two
additional officers. If we did not
local project is completely auto-
nomous,”’ that ‘‘opening a checking
account is completely the responsi-
bility of local projects’? and that -
he refused to waste his time simply
*‘to satisfy the paranoid delusions
of a local banker.” I repeated’ this
to Paul the next day, and again
emphasized that: we- felt only two
officers were necessary. He re-
plied that he was “‘sorry’’ but
‘the bank could not accept the
account unless the conditions were
met. Never, at any time, was I told:
that the Trust might be willing to-
waive any of its requirements.
Lack of Judgment
The Bryn Mawr Trust now claims
that its decision was due to a lack
of communication. More accurate-
ly, I would say that it was due to a
lack of good judgment. One can
only speculate as to why the Trust
was so uncooperative, - but I can
hardly believe that its reasons were
‘*apolitical.’? Since the summer,
the Trust’s tune has certainly
changed. When I went: there in-
cognito a week-ago, a minor official
almost sweet-talked me into
believing that the bank had. been
grievously wronged.
Because we felt that we had far
more important work to do, Main
Line Vietnam Summer did not wage
a protest campaign against the
Trust. However, many of our mem-
bers closed their accounts becatise
of their personal feelings about
dealing with such an organization.
Most opened accounts with the
Pennsylvania National Bank in Ard-
more, which routinely accepted the
Project’s account without con-
ditions.
My own feelings are clear! I do
not wish to deal with the Bryn
Mawr Trust Company, and I would
feel exactly the same way if they
refused on the same basis toaccept
an account from a group called
“Main Line Citizens to Support
the Murder of Innocent Women and
Children in Vietnam.’”? Banks

SCHOLARSHIPS
BY COMPUTER
Last year $30 million in college schol-
arships went unclaimed — because ‘no
qualified persons applied . . . because
no qualified persons knew of them.
e Now ECS engineers and educators
have programmed a high-speed com-
puter with 700,000 items of scholastic
aid, worth over $500 million, to permit
students to easily and quickly locate
scholarships for which they qualify.
e The studerit fills out a detailed, con- —
fidential questionnaire and returns it to
ECS, with a one-time computer-proces-
sing fee of $15. In seconds the compu-
ter compares his qualifications against
requirements of grants set up by foun-
dations, business, civic, fraternal, re-
ligious, and government organizations,
and prints a personalized -report to
the student telling him where and when
to apply for grants for which he qual-
ifies. Thousands of these do not depend
on scholastic standing or financial need.

ee In his: lecture, Donald Fletcher, -
" director of drug abuse education for
- the drug company, Smith Kline and
- French, provided little new infor-
mation on the drug subject, ne-
glected references to the moral,
emotional and intellectual aspects’
of the question and made empha-
tically clear that his talk would
encompass drug. ABUSE, not drug
USE, the topic currently relevant
to Bryn Mawr questioning.
Although much of his information
twanged of ‘Time’? magazine
survey material and his basic
reason against drugs seemed tobe,
‘It?s bad for you,”’ Fletcher did
toss out some interesting facts.,
Particularly enlightening was
Fletcher’s comment that marijuana
-cannot be legalized by any of the
states of the United States, no
matter how desperately they would
want to change the laws. In 1961 the
Single Convention brought all old
narcotic laws throughout the world
under one code, and so today potis
illegal under international treaty.
In order; therefore, to legalize
marijuana, the U.S, Congress would
have to change American status in
the treaty. Hearing that, one student
in the group whispered, ‘‘Gotta get
back to the-dorm and write to my
Congressman.?’
Commenting on Timothy Leary,
principal advocate of the LSD cult,
Fletcher mentioned, completely
oblivious of the double meaning of
his words, that people who went to
see Leary paid *'$3 a head.’’ From
the center section came a kriowing
whisper,

Questions posed by Bryn Mawr —
students bounced off Fletcher like —
tennis balls. Having admitted that
marijuana has not ‘been proven __
more dangerous or @yen as dan- _
gerous as alcohol, Fletcher found
it difficult to fend off cries of
‘«Why the hypocrisy?” -
Fletcher revealed that the mari-
juana used in the U.S, is generally
of very low, often negligible,
strength. He said, **Sometimes it
is hard to trace the actual cannabis
content even with laboratory equip-
ment.’? This point, coupled with
Fletcher’s repeated: comment that
the question of drug abuse (not
drug use) was one of personal
choice, implied, most ironically,
that maybe it wouldn’t be so
horrible, horrible to try pot after
all.
The epitome of the one-and-one-
half hour lecture was found in a
dialogue between Fletcher and a
Bryn Mawr junior.. She asked
“Fletcher if he had ever smoked
marijuana. His almost indignant
reply was. to the negative. The
questioner immediately demanded,
‘(Have you ever had a drink?’ >
Chuckling weakly, Fletcher re-
sponded,. ‘Of course, but that’s
legal.”
A slip of the tongue? Maybe, but
still it was rather explicitly im-
plicit that it is the illegality of
pot that is keeping a director of

| Stoget: "Shrew"
_ Direction
of William Shakespeare’s ‘The
“Taming of The Shrew” has fallen
to Paul Hostetler, head of
the Temple University Drama De-
partment. Robert Butman, who was
to have directed the show, was un-
able to continue due to a per-
forated ulcer for which he is
currently undergoing surgery at
the Bryn Mawr Hospital.
Mr, Hostetler met the cast
’ and crew of the play Wednesday
evening. He basically agrees with
Mr. Butniaii’s interpretation af the
drama--that Kate really falls in
love with Petruchio, in contrast
to Bianca who is capable only
of puppy romances--but he differs
in direction technique. Unlike Mr.
Butman, Mr, Hostetler thinks that
it, is the director’s business to
block the play. He does notbelieve
that supervision of lighting and
‘ costuming is an integral part of
his task (as opposed to Mr. But-
, Man, who does) and. so has
given carte blanche to both these
committees. ....
Because of the delay involved
in getting a new director, the
cast has not been able to re-
‘hearse this weeky; The date for
the opening night has therefore
been pushed forward 6 days; in-
stead of November 3 and
4, the play is now slated for

Zoltan Kodaly, a 20th century

The second major problem came
from the evaluation of the health
situation in Vietnam by a team
of six American doctors, InSenate
subcommittee hearings chaired by
Senator Edward Kennedy, these
doctors minimized the serious-
ness of war injuries and concen-
trated instead on health problems,
Dr. Needleman countered’ their
report with testimony based on
his visit to Vietnam. He told the
Subcommittee that the extent of.
injury due to the war is pheno-
menal, particularly among child-
ren. He said that in the northern
most regions of South Vietnam,
where injuries are highest, he
“ound at least one case of napalm
burning in every hospital, Among
others, he visited a little boy
who had'been in the hospital since
April without receiving any medi-
cal attention, This testimony
prompted Senator Kennedy to sug-
gest that the task force of doctors
sent to evaluate the situation had
not discharged their responsibility
properly and had avoided politi-
cal implications by concentrating
on social problems rather than:

Penny says that her field work
this year is giving her a better
perspective about the things she
studied at Bryn Mawr insociology.
It is uniting theory with practice,
and she recommends a. similar
experience for any students who
have doubts about what they are
doing in school, ‘‘Pm very happy
that I’m doing this this “year,’’
she explained, ‘‘Pve seen things
that I never would have seen any-
where else”?
After her year in YSO is up, she
expects to go back to school, but
has not decided whether to return
to Bryn Mawr or enroll at a large
metropolitan university such as
UCLA. She will, however, get a
master’s degree in sociology and
believes that her field work this
year will aid her in understanding
whatever she studies in the future,
It is an excellent learning situation,
