Emphasizes ‘Discredit Clause’
Legislature met November 30,
to discuss proposed changes inthe
driving rule and the application of
the ‘*‘discredit clause’? to the ex-
tended -men-in-the-rooms hours.
The new driving rule, subject to
approval of the Trustees » will read
as follows;
“Every. student with a legal
state license may drive while at
college. Students wishing to keep
cars must park them outside the
specified areas, and must register
with the Executive Board. before
bringing the car to school. At the
tim ime of registration, a student must
provide the following information:
1. Written approval from parent
or guardian.
2. Complete insurance for car
and driver.
3. A -precise location of a
permanent.parking space.
Stickers must be displayed on the
rear window of the car. No cars
may be parked on campus. If re-
turning late in the evening, a girl
may leave her car on the campus,
but. must remove it by 8:30 the
following morning. Requests for
special permission to keep a car
within the designated area must
come before the Executive Board.
The Board reserves the right to
refuse permission if information
is incomplete or to revoke the
privilege if the rule is not: being
respected.’?
After .a unanimous Vote, Presi-
dent ‘Emily. Bardack announced that
- this ruling would become effective
second semester. All requests will
be heard ‘two weeks before the end
- of first semester. They may be
submitted now.

Asst.Atty.General
Will Lecture Here
About Civil Rights
This Monday evening, December
14, Burke Marshall, Assistant At-
torney General‘in charge of civil
_rights, will speak at Bryn Mawr.
He plans to speak ‘‘as informally
as possible’’ about the development
and future of the Civil Rights Act
of 1964, Because of his position,
Mr. Marshall is possibly the one
man most responsible for how the
Civil Rights Act will be enforced:
He is also responsible for en-
forcing civil rights measures
which became law years ago. Mr.
Marshall’s department in the Jus-
tice . Department has brought
several court suits to. remove
discriminatory barriers to Negro
voting in the South, and is bre-
paring other cases,
Mr. Marshall is the author, of
_a recently published book, FED-
ERALISM AND CIVIL RIGHTS,
in which he attempts to explain
‘what the government can and can
not do in enforcing civil rights.
Mr. Marshall was appointed to
‘his present position in 1961. He is
a graduate of Phillips Exeter Aca-
demy:and Yale, ‘and received a
law degree from Yale in 1951.
that the direct line between the
clause and the liberalization. of the
men-in-the-rooms ruling should
be emphasized. Instead of making
additional note of it in the Self-
Gov rules, délegates ‘decided to
allow the individual halls to make,
the point clear. The ‘‘discredit
clause’? states: :
“Any action which brings un-
favorable notice to a student and
thus lowers the prestige of the
College, which damages its: repu-
tation in the public’s eye, or which
results in the demoralization of
the Self-Government system, is
considered as discreditable to the
College.’
It was pointed out that the re-
sponsibility for reporting in-
fringements is the same here as
for any other part of the. honor

Self Gov. Revises Driving Rule, Undergrad Encourages Berkeley —
To Continue Protest Against Ban
By Erica Hahn
Monday, December 7, Undergrad
tackled the problem of taking a
stand on the recent political ban
and ensuing demonstrations at the
Berkeley campus of the University
of California,
The ‘most important problem
facing the meeting was an un-
tangling of the issues at stake.
The only clear issue is a lack of
student-adminisStration communi-
cations. At Bryn Mawr it has fre-
quently. been complained by stu-
dents that there is no way to reach
the adminstration with complaints.
At Berkeley the problem is mul-
tiplied many times by the size of
the campus, the fact the admini-
stration is the same for all of the
University of California campuses,
and the lack of a student organi-

A night letter from the Undergrad Association of Bryn

President
California; Edmund G. Brown,
Charles Powell, President of the Student Body:

The most -immediate ‘question
is that of the correctness of the
administration’s behaviot in the:
present situation. Phere has been
until November 20, a University
ban against ‘‘illegal’’ political ac-
tivity. In October the campus began
enforcing this rule.
The resulting demonstrations
were - against the rule’s enforce-
ment, The student body questions
the right of the administration to
declare any political activity
illegal, especially since the Cali-
fornia court system has not de-
cided this question.
Furthermore, Governor Brown
of California sent in the state
police to end the sit-in, a matter
for campus police. And since
these students have been arrested
by state police, they claim they
should not be tried by campus
authorities, as is happening, but
in state courts.
A majority of Undergrad doubted
the administration’s right to de-
- fine legal and illegal political ac-
tivity. More important is to.
establish some sort of perma-

tion body to prevent. future
collapses of communication, .
Along these guidelines, the above

Freedom For and Against -
Freedom of expression has had a bad time of it this month, First it
was the University of California’s curtailing of student political activity,
definitely a bad thing. This limitation of speech and action has drawn

We were told that there is an
auditorium at Haverford, but that
it is not very big, This might not
be a disadvantage. A small, packed
house is better than a huge, half-
filled hall, particularly when
everyone in the small house can
see and hear, If an extra per-

would probably be a delightful
kind of nuisance to those involved.

effort to dispel the gloominess,
or perhaps to reflect supplicants’
thoughts back down upon them,

This has put her in contact with
thousands _of_.students over the.
years. In fact, she was a student
here herself once. She was gradu-
ated in 1921, majoring in French
and Sparlish.
Between 1921 and1941,when she
returned here, she worked for the
Shipley School, and for seven years
as Secretary to the President at
Haverford. In accordance with her
life-long hobby of gardening, she
has taken classes at the Barnes.
Arboretum in Merion.
All during this time she has liv-
ed in Ardmore with her mother and
sister,, Now, with Miss Donaldson’s
retirement, all three are moving to
Florida. They have already bought
a house, with a yard that could do
with a little landscaping. But that’s
no problem: with her extensive
knowledge of horticulture (‘‘She
knows. everything about shrubs and
trees and plants,’’ said Mrs. Kath-
erine Whelihan enviously), she is
already looking forward to putting
the Florida sunshine to work. No
flower could resist growing for a
combination like that.

Teaching Careers
Discussed at Tea.
By Headmistresses
Undergrad’s continuing program
of Job Opportunity Teas presented
Miss Mary Carter,. Principal of
Radnor High School, and Miss
Margaret Speer, Headmistress of
the Shipley School yesterday after -
noon in the Common Room.
Miss Carter spoke first, des-
cribing the practice teaching pro-
gram at Radnor High School, in
which many Bryn Mawr girls have
and are participating. She also
stressed the many.new techniques
-in' teaching such as television,
team teaching, language labs, and
the rise of college-level courses
in secondary schools.
Miss Speer stated that the dif-
ference between public and private
schools may not be the difference
between public and private, as
much as that between large and
small. In quoting-from a question-
naire attempting to evaluate teach-
er reaction to teaching, she stated
that there seemed to be little dif-
ference between the replies of the
public and private school teachers.
She also added that the most com-
mon disadvantage cited, that of
dissatisfaction with administra-
tion, was not necessarily confined
to teaching, and thus not a specific

Following the formal question-
answer period, ‘*open house’ was
held in all the state departments
of government. Students were in-
vited to pursue.the issues which
interested them in discussion with
the various secretaries and direc-
tors ‘of the State departments.
The Honorable Walter Alessan-
droni, the Attorney General, fur-
ther demonstrated the frank open-
ness characteristic of, the

tical aspects of the textbook ‘tax

Dr. Rien Presents
Anti-Poverty Talk
In League Series
By Roberta Smith
Dr; Martin Rien of the Bryn
Mawr School of Social Work spoke
Tuesday in the Common Room on
the recent Anti-Poverty legis-
lation. His lecture was sponsored
by League.
Dr. Rien sought to present an
objective analysis of the program
and to give a‘‘framework for look-
ing into its organization.’’ He
presented both the advantages and
disadvantages of the Bill, and
pointed out criticism from both
the left,and right.
Criticisms. of the bill, he re-
marked, range from the accusation
that the bill was designed merely
as a vote-getter and (as one
Socialist says) as a ‘‘mocking
and a fraud” to the assertion that
the ‘*War on Poverty’’ is becoming
a ‘‘War on the Poor,’’ seeking to
bring pressure on _ deprived
classes.
Dr. Rien went on to show how
the new bill is, in its different.
aspects, both a departure from and
a continuity of past legislation, in
the field of.poverty. It differs from
the ideas exemplified in New Deal
legislation in’that it seeks to pro-
vide genuine ‘‘equality of oppor-
tunity’? rather than simply income
security.
The emphasis on ‘‘inculcating
good work habits,’”? and thus re-
ducing the dependency of a poten-
tially productive portion of our
society is an idea carried over
from New Deat legislation.
He went on to outline the basic
structure of the Bill itself, a
two-faceted program which will
seek to combat ainemployment by
providing opportunities and job
training for young people and by
facilitating community action
against poverty.
‘We periodically rediscover
poverty,’’ said Dr. Rien -- and
this he believes is the most signi-
ficant contribution of the new bill
-- by bringing the problem of
poverty into the public eye, it will
lead to new and better solutions to .
_.an ever-present question. Fi

Politicking On Berkeley Campus
Erupts Into Free Speech Fight
The festering political activity
controversy at the University of ~
California’s .Berkeley campus

last week as California police ar--
rested hundreds of students for
staging a sit-in in the university’s
(administration building.
Near chaos reigned on the 83,710
student campus a8.state and Berke-
ley police, acting jon orders from
California Gévernor Edmund G.
(Pat) Brown, hauled away 801 stu-
dent demonstrators who | had

decision to ban student political
activity from the campus,

Letters From Berkeley
The following letters are by
graduate students (one of whom
graduated from Bryn Mawr in
1963) at the University of Cali-
fornia~concerning ~the Berkeley
campus’ Free Speech Movement.
The problem over free speech
and assembly first arose in Sep-
tember. and has continued with
rioting and demonstrations ever
since. The solution does. not yet
‘ appear ‘in. sight.
Help Wanted
I am now sitting along with more
than 3 thousand other students
of the Unizig yzity of California,
at Berkery,’ who have dem-
onstrated silently before a meet-
ing of the State. Regents, You are
‘aware, I’m sure, ofthe free speech
movement initiated here on Sep-
tember 30th, Since that time, there
have beendemonstrations, a period
of negotiation, and dispute over
what regulations the Adminis-
tration of this univefsity should
and ‘could rightfully impose on the
political life and activities of its
students.
Today, on. the date of Decision
’ by the Regents, hopes were high.
Joan’ Baez came at noon and led
a two hour rally, after which
we —_walked_-quietly, six abreast,
to the place of the meeting. We
have just been informed (at about
3:30) that the Regents, upon Pres-
ident Clark Kerr’s recommenda-
tion, voted that certain Hyde Park
areas within the: campus be set
up which university students and
staff could utilize to advocate law-
ful political and social action; to
ask for contributions, and to so-
licit membership. for lawful
activity.
Although this is one step for-
ward .(during the past six weeks
it has been unlawful to do any of
the abové three things at all),
we object to the idea that the
on-campus action must be
“‘lawful,’’ for it implies that the
administration will determine what
is lawful, and that adds up to a
form of prior restraint.
Thousands of students here, un-
der the banner of the Free Speech
Movement, have -urged that the
‘Regents realize that only the courts
.can determine whether a political
action or activity is lawful or
unlawful, They have proclaimed,
futhermore, that political and so-
cial action should be encouraged,
and not restrained, on a univer-
sity campus. Free speech and the
right to assemble cannot stop at
the classroom. Nor can just ana
fair limits be placed on these
rights by the administration ofa
state-supported and therefore po-
litically pressured institution,
I write to inform you of what
is happening, in hopes that you
will tell others about it as well.
And, of course, any and allexpres- ©
sions of support from individuals,
from organizations, or from the
Bryn Mawr community (excluding
administration and faculty) will be
appreciated. They will have most
impact if directed either to: The
Board of.Regents of the State of
California, c/o Mr. Clark Kerr,
President of the University of
California, Berkeley, or to The
Free Speech Movement, c/o Mario
Savio, Box 809, Berkeley, Calif-
I do hope you will take action
on this, It is important not just-
to the U, Cal. students, not just
to all students, but to all citizens.
Sue Gumpert (?63)
Incoherent?
If I be a bit incoherent, please
forgive. I have beén up 48 hours
over the rioting here.
November 14, the Regents in-
stituted a new rule which was
clearly. contrary to the First
Amendment. December 2, the stu-
dents demonstrated and 800 were
arrested by state cops ordered in
by Governor Brown.
Then hell broke out. 18,000 stu-
dents (or so) are refusing to
attend classes. 75% of all Teaching
Assistants and more than half the
faculty are refusing to teach. The
American Association of Univer-
sity Préfessors has asked for the
Chancellor’s resignation. The
faculty is threatening to close the
school.
I am going to bed now for the
first time in days.

An FSM _ spokesman said he
thought the strike and boycott was
‘tabout 85 percent effective.’’ La-=
‘bor organizations in the Bay Area
seemed to be honoring FSM picket
lines at the university, as food
deliveries to university cafeterias
and construction on university

In Sacramento, Governor Brown
rejected a plea for amnesty for
the 800, saying, ‘‘We’re not going
to have anarchy in the state of
California, and that’s coenene sa
tion) anarchy.’’
The resolution calling for the
implementation of the new regent’s
policies referred to a regent’s
ruling that. granted. students the
right to engage in ahy sort of
‘‘legal’? activity.on campus, but
permitting the university admin-
istration to take disciplinary ac-
tion against students engaged in
activity that would result in viola-
tion of the law -- presumably sit-
ins and other forms. of civil. dis -
obedience.
The Free aneeeh miearnent
termed the ruling unacceptable
Kerr criticized the FSM for
*‘distortion,’’ ‘‘irrationality,’’ and
*¢ill will,’? and, said the issue had
-nothing to do with free speech, but
rather concerned political action.
In past years, students had used
the plaza at the Sather Gate en-
trance to the campus as a ‘‘Hyde
Park’? area for debates, rallies
and political speeches.
This fall, long after the Repub-
lican National Convention, pro-
Goldwater students complained to
school officials about the manner
in which supporters of Governor
William Scranton: had used the area
to recruit backers for the Pennsyi-
vania Governor.
This eventually led the dean of
students, Katherine Towle, to in-
voke a long-ignored regulation
prohibiting the use of the area for
off-campus political purposes.
Students defied the ban and began
the protests.
and Author of TO BE EQUAL
Whitney Young, Executive Brreeter of the Hletionel Urban League
To be Equal Outlines Reform,
New Approach to Race Issue.
By Edna Perkins
' (TO BE EQUAL, by Whitney Young,
McGraw-Hill Company, 254 pages.)
Books on the racial problem run
the gamut from James Baldwin’s
personal and emotional essays to
sociological studies with no pro-
posed solutions. Now, in TO BE
EQUAL, Whitney Young, Executive
Director of the National Urban
League, has written what could
_well serve as a handbook for
reform,
The Urban League has some-
times had an image as a rather
slow-moving organization, too
easily satisfied -with token gains,
This book goes a long way toward
dispelling that image,
Mr. Young proposes a ‘‘domes-
tic Marshall Plan,’’ a program of
‘special effort,’ to. compensate
for centuries of poverty and deg-
radation for Negroes. He argues
that it is not enough to simply
‘topen doors’’ to Negroes, since
the great majority of them are
too far behind to benefit from new
opportunities unless a special ef-
fort is made to recruit them for
jobs and to improve their health,
housing, and education.

Emotion of Rights Battle
By Marcia Young
The latest commentary on the
Civil Rights front is THE-MOVE-
MENT by Lorraine Hansberry,
published ‘by Simon and Schuster
- in cooperation with SNCC.
This is perhaps the most mov-
ing, dramatic and concise pic-
torial documentary yet printed.
The photographs alone tell the
emotional story of the civil rights
battle in a. way far more im-
. pressive than words, The faces of
frustration, misery, dedication and
hatred tell their’ own tale. And,
as seeing is believing, there can
be no question but that this is
reality.
.The book gives the story. of
. the rights movement with a greater
frame of reference and depth than
has’ yet- been done. It begins its
peat ya the. civil dale: atthe baat ‘alae from Lorraine Hansberry’s THE MOVEMENT, pub- .
lished-by — and Schuster in cooperation with SNCC. Photos by’Danny Lyon and Bob Adelman.

a ena eit Ge
story in. the South and shows‘ the
southern environment; black and
white, It shows the despair that
has been beaten into the faces
of the older generation of Negroes
and the anger in the young, Then
there is the hope brought by our
generation in that first Carolina
sit-in. The story then moves North
to the urban ghettos under the
leadership of CORE, the Northern
Student - Movement, and other
groups.
. Lorraine Hansberry increases
her frame of reference by: aug-
menting her own commentary with
quotations from leading authorities
in many fields. She includes John
F, Kennedy, Howard Zinn and
James Baldwin. She does not limit
herself to today’s leaders, but
includes voices from the past, thus
showing that the elements for the -
race crisis have been in existence
for. decades. She does not limit
herself to the positive side of the
Negro leadership, but shows the
negatives-the whys and wherefores
of the Black Muslim movement,
An important emphasis is placed
on youth, The movement is by
today’s youth for those of
tomorrow-black and white. Beside
the picture of a tired but deter-
mined young Negro boy there is
the quote:
**They stand in the hose fire
at Birmingham; they stand in the
rain at. Hattiesburgh. They are
young, they are determined. | It
is for us to create, now, an America
that deserves them.’’
seem directed at the problems of
the urban and suburban North.
Although he has a regrettable tend-
ency to use statistics on Southern
conditions to support these North-
ern solutions, he still paints agrim
picture of the Northern ghettoes, a
“picture that underlines the needfor
haste in making reforms, For
example, he points to a Civil
Rights Commission report which
claims that if all of New York
city were as crowded as parts of
Harlem, the entire population of
the United States would live in
three of New York’s five boroughs.
His specific proposals are re-
forms rather than radical new
ideas, for he seems to want to
work within existing agencies as
much as possible. For example,
he wants the Health Education and
Welfare Department to make a
much greater effort toinsure inte-
gration in federally supported
hospitals; he wants a change in
wage scales to encourage the best
teachers and social workers to
work in the slums; and he wants
more Negroes appointed to city
planning and redevelopment agen-
_ Cies, which all too often end by .
.worsening Negro’s living con-
ditions instead of improving them.
The novelty of Mr, Young’s ap-
proach is not mainly in his specific
suggestions, but in the general
idea of a ‘‘special.effort’’ for
Negroes. He uses official govern-
ment statistics to prove that last
year’s tax cut can not be expected
to create full employment, but only
to stabilize current unemployment
rates, Some writers have sug-
gested more governmental action
such as greater public works ex-
penditures to stimulate the econ-
omy. Mr. Young makes no such
specific suggestions, but thinks
that the civil rights movement may
lead eventually to ‘‘major social
reforms. in the whole society,’’
reforms whieh would benefit poor
whites as well as Negroes. For the
time being, however, Mr. Young
argues for giving Negroes agreat-
er share of whatever jobs are
available. Although this may seem
only just, it also appears to be
where his program runs into prac-
tical difficulty, simply because of
the opposition of white worker's who
see their jobs threatened by equali-
ty.
Actually, Mr. ota s book
seems directed first at the-4¢white
power structure.’’ By appealing
over the heads of the poorer whites,
he may bring parts of his frogram
closer to reality, for the Northern
white power structure has always
kept up its liberal image and has
often made real efforts for racial
justice, But in addressing himself
to the white power structure and
the Negro middle class, he also
appeals over the heads of the
majority of Negroes, the ones his
reforms are supposed to help the
most, It remains aquestion whether
or not all progress can, or will,
come from the middle class in
such a way as to be really ef-
fectiye in the slums.

The influence of chance ex-
tended into painting as well as
sculpture. For Leonardo, stains
were Capable of giving artists sug-
gestions, but not details, of
landscapes.
Later, trees and clouds ap-
peared as. definite images in
paintings. They were minute and
unrelatéd to the main subject. The
artists responsible probably dis-°
covered the images in the process
of painting and followed them.
From 1460 to 1500, the use
of clouds switched from a chance
detail to a standard representation
of a painting’s theme.
An anonymous painting of 1440
contained - an unintentional man-
mountain, Later, ink blots were
used deliberately to find new land-
scapes. This technique freed the
artist by allowing him_ to
relinquish complete-control of his
subject matter.
This sort of selective tracing
in which the artist used only sug-
gestions in accidental designs that
interested him, had an influence
on Constable, Turner, and other
early 19th century Romantic land-
scape painters.
The critical reaction to this
new concept in art was not always
favorable, Whistler brought suit
against Ruskin, who had accused
him of ‘throwing a_pot of paint
in the public’s face’? after seeing
the artist’s ‘*Nocturne in Black
Ns } Loving Callsge fer Coiinad | TELE ‘ AR
‘Ruskin vaseniid not the pictures
- but the basic attitude behind them,
Whistler considered the subject
.of a painting of no importance
in itself. It was merely a method
for representing forms.
It was this reduction of paint-
dng to form and color that Ruskin
resented, Although Whistler
eventually won his case, he was.
awarded
in damages.
At this point in the history of
art came the alliance of chance
and intention, The transition from
representational to brushstroke
art raised the question, ‘Is it too
accident prone??’
In 1957 the Baltimore Zoo al-
lowed Betsy, one if its chimps,
to paint. One of her canvases
was compared to a painting by a
prominent modern artist. When
the public was asked its prefer-
ence, . many chose Betsy’s
creation.
According to Professor Jan-
son, ‘Betsy’s work is not art.

The designs of apes and infants
are pre-figurative. When a child
is ready, he 1 discover that a
design resenibles a face, He is
not yet, however, an artist.
The child does- not yet depend
on outside approval. He is more
interested in the process than
in the result, Once the public
is introduced, the interaction of
artist and society begins. This
interaction is impossible in pure
chance creation, which therefore
is not true art.

Receptive Audience Greets
Performance of Zoo Story
‘Interfaith’s new series, Religion
in Contemporary A Art Forms, began
with a coup de grace inthe Decem-
ber 2 presentation of Edward Al-
bee’s play THE ZOO STORY, by
the ‘Union Theological ‘Seminary
Players,
“The Players gave their per-
formance in a‘ packed Common
Room without benefit of proper
stage or ligtiting, and the enthu-
siastic response of the audience
attested to their success,
The actors were faced with un-
usual obstacles in the play they
selected, The 55-minute ZOO
STORY has only two characters,
who remain on stage throughout,
and physical action is at a mini-
mum until the dramatically violent
end, ;
The characters are Peter
(George Hiltner), a superficial,
complacently proper junior exec-
utive, and Jerry (Thomas Strib-
ling), a hypersensitive ‘‘angry
young man,’ frustrated..to. the
point of insanity by his “inability
to communicate with other beings.
The play is dominated by Jerry,
who verbally accosts Peter in
Central Park and forces him out
of his smug shell with a lurid and
painfully witty account of his un- _
sockedieal” ‘attempts at love or
understanding with others.
Jerry. calculatedly taunts Peter
into fighting with him. Inthe strug-
gle, Jerry produces a knife, in-
duces Peter to take it and then
impales himself on it. The play
ends as Jerry dies in bitter tri-
umph, having brought to the hor-
rified Peter his first completely
involving emotional experience, .
Despite occasional poor handling
of the more subtle dynamics of the
. dialogue, the actors succeeded not
only in conveying the power of
Albee’s provocative comment on
the isolation of man, but also in
relating it to the aims of organized
Christianity in the 20th century.
