‘Things MAY Be Looking Up
The social scene MAY be a little brighter. this year. Caroline Willis
has published a schedule of all campus mixers and coffee hours,
to which everyone is invited, available from the hall social chairmen,
and A.A. President Anne Godfrey has organized various co-ed athletic
activities, such as mixed doubles tennis and volleyball.
¥
*Thanks to efforts such as these, the social scene MAY be'slightly
better ; however, many efforts to improve the social climate are
stands now, the College agrees to pay for one coffee hour per dorm
per *year. It ALLOWS each dorm to hold (and finance) one additional
coffee hour and one evening mixer in the hall. In the same generous
spirit, the College permits each dorm to hold another mixer, pro-
Yeates we
vided they can find a place for it outside the hall.
Is it unreasonable to ask that a hali be permitted to have as many.
mixers as it wishes to finance and organize? And since individual
hall mixers are open to the entire college, this would involve no.
inter-hall discrimination. Would it also be unreasonable to ask that
the hall ,might choose. whether or not to allocate the covers monies
for either a coffee hour or mixer?
With this consideration from the administration, our social
Mawrterdom might cease.
Promising
“The proposal brought before Undergrad to organize teas for seniors
with company representatives is one of the most constructive to
emerge in recent years. These teas are being conducted in cooperation
with the Bureau —of- Recommendations. They offer the Bryn Mawr
graduate who does not plan to continue her studies immediately an
Opportunity to gain information abotit positions ‘available to liberal
arts graduates.
This may help alleviate the graduate’s dilemma of going-to graduate
school because she does not know how to locate or secure an interesting,
reasonably well-paying ‘position. The teas might also check the June
rush toward secretarial schools preparatory to even applying for jobs.
Lists have been posted in the halls, asking seniors to suggest
various fields in which they might be interested in finding employment.
If response is enthusiastic. to this proposal, there should be a wide
variety of interviews on campus. This seems quite worth while for
anyone considering immediate employment after graduation. Such a
promising idea deserves campus support. _ re
Nightmare Alley
The dulcet tones of the College fire bells are a prelude to a short
nightmare of unnecessary chaos. The myriad regulations to be fol-
lowed in preparation for saving one’s skin are exasperatingly com-
plicated, confusing, and, what is more, neither logical nor standard.
One dorm is instructed to.close the doors, open the windows, and
leave the lights on, while another is just as painfully tutored to shut
the windows arid open the doors (They havel’t told us what to do with
‘the lights).
The gear for the individual fire fighter‘ seems fairly cradand
If one is not in one’s room, however, one is assured that one does
not really need a towel, flashlight, et al. As a matter of fact, the
smoker dweller may even. have a better chance for self- -preservation,
since she does not need to hunt for the postulated paraphernalia
while flames consume her room, and, of course, the fire staircase.
Perhaps a review of the present system might ‘be in order. Stand-
~grdization and/or revision might make these rules more -effective—
and possibly even a little more logical. After all, the purpose of the
proveene is to expedite evacuation in a real emergency.

of the 1964-65 academic year.
Nancy Bradeen, League president,
Mr. Donald Archer of the YMCA,
Mrs. Walter Foster of the Bryn
Mawr School Board, Rev. Burton
of Bethel AME Church, Dr. Ber-
nard Ross, professor of social
work and social research, and
.. Ginny Kerr of the Social Action
Club co-operated in a panel dis-
cussion to explore areas of com-
mon interest and concern between
the students .of the college and
the residents of Bryn Mawr.
Members of the panel spoke of,
several current community activi-!
ties and many possible future pro-
jects in which Bryn Mawr students
could participate.
stressed were tutoring of pre-
“school and elementary school chil-
Among those
dren, lending services to Girl~
Scout troops, and working with the
YMCA on physical edygation and
camping programs. In addition to
these, they urged students to con-
tribute their time and energy to
election activities this fall.
In her introduction to the dis-
cussion, Nancy outlined the gov-
ernmental, social, and economic
aspects of the town of Bryn Mawr.
She cited the difficulties involved
in governing the town which is
located in two counties and three
- townships.
After an opening statement for
the panel by Dr. Ross, Mrs. Foster
emphasized the need for programs
including pre-school children. Ac-
cording to recent reports of the
local school board, such things
as reading to these younger chil-
dren and taking them’ on: field
trips greatly adds to their chances
of adjusting well in. elementary’
school. A recent proposal to be-

students could communicate with

there Tuesday morning.
The parking lot and surrounding
streets were filled with people of

whose messages ranged from ‘*Ar- —

Haverford and Bryn Mavr stu-

cal fence, were a noticeable part
-of the estimated-5,000 who turned
out to hear the deeply tanned,
silver-haired senator.
In general, the crowd was well-
behaved. Except for occasional
squabbles “between anti-Goldwa-
terites (one of whom shouted *‘ Heil
Hitler’) and ‘surrounding irate
Main Line matrons,- there were
no hecklers or *‘incidents.”’
The anti-Goldwater contingent
from Haverford and Bryn Mawr,
estimated at about 150, for the
most part limited their activities
to passing out Republicans for
Johnson literature and displaying
signs saying, among other things,
**No Hope Here for Negroes or

_ NSSAFENS Rep
Talks to Students
The six Negro members of the
Freshman class were given a
,lunch, Tuesday, Oct. 6, by Mrs.
Hotten, a representative of the
National Scholarship Service and —
Fund for Negro Students. Mrs.
Hotten was interested in: hearing
about their reactions to their pro-
fessors, classes, students, and
social life at Bryn-Mawr,.
The NSSAFFNS is an organi-
zation trying to get qualified Negro
students into inter-racial or pre-
“dominantly white colleges. Among
its activities, it keeps voluminous
files on which colleges want or
don’t want Negro students, ~—
Mrs. -Hotten of the New York
branch is on a tour of colleges,
bringing the file up to date. Since
the six, Valerie Fisher of Georgia,
Jacqueline Williams of. Florida,
and Wonza Williamson, Barbara
Webb, Marsha Young, and Jessica
Harris of New York State, agreed
that Bryn Mawr was comfortable,
the topic turned to dating.
The twoSoutherners were rather
surprised by inter-racial dating
and found it quite different, but
the four New. Yorkers are rather
used to it.
The students agreed that the
majority of high school guidance
counselors are not aware of ed-
ucational opportunities for Ne-
groes. The NSSAFFNS has been
filling the gap by advising Negro
students on the basis of their
records® and recruiting qualified
Negroes for schools who want

Conservatives for Goldwater J
In “his speech, which was clear-
ly delivered but hardly dynamic,
Senator Goldwater described the
campaign as one of fundamental
issues, i.e., fan all-powerful cen-"
tral goverment versus the federal
' System’?,and-“‘a socialized econ-.—
omy versus~ a free economy.’ ~
The senator remained general
throughout most of his speech,
never mentioning his opponent by
name.
Political saws were occasiaqnally
peppered, however, with such re-
marks as direct criticism of the
Democratic senator from Arkan-
sas, J, William Fulbright, and the
comment that ‘‘So much dirt has
been swept under the White House

The Figure Erdman Makes
Abstraction is an old story with
_ the philosophers, but it has been
_like a new toy in the hands of the
Cold Eye Cast at fedaee
architects of our day...
More than once I should have
signed the dorm to radicalism,
if it had been the originality it
was mistaken for by young stu-
dents... Its most precious quality
will be its having crumbled up
and carried away the skylights with
it. Look at it a hundred times;
the showcase will forever look
like the Long Island Railroad Sta=
tion. It can never lose its sense
of a building that once unfolded
by surprise as it went.
