Guards Hired for Patrol SAC, SDS to Sponsor Seminar
To Prevent Vandalism
The William J. Burns Company
is currently providing Bryn Mawr
with a new addition to its campus
- hired guards on duty every night
Science Building’s
Costs Cut in Half
By AnonymousGitt
An anonymous foundation has
donated $300,000 to Bryn Mawr
to help specifically in paying off
the $600,000 construction debt
on the- recently completed:
Physical Sciences Building. The
gift, which was received on
December 21, has also been in-
Cluded in the fund’ being
$10,000,000 raised for Bryn
“Mawr with the help of the Ford
Foundation.
Mrs. Whelihan, Assistant tothe
President, has characterized the
anonymous gift as a ‘tremendous
help’? in reducing the science
building’s debt by half. She em-
phasized the difficulty of raising
money for suchconstruction pro-
jects: donors have apparently
contributed more money for
scholarships than to the *‘brick-
and-mortar’’ funds for building
laboratories and _ classrooms.
Certainly the facilities of the new
science building have proved
invaluable to the 0 students
registered in Math ‘and Physics
courses taught in the building, as
well. as to the Chemistry and
Geology students who use its
laboratories,
The identity of the foundation
donating the $300,000 will
probably never be made public,
and is known only to high officials
of the College, but should be
greatly appreciated by a wide
circle of students and professors.

between the hours ot 6 Pes and
6 a.m.
Making complete rounds of the
campus approximately every hour,
the uniformed guards inspect each
floor of the library- and all build-
ings. In addition tothis new method
of surveillance, the college still
maintains its regular watchman
and will soon install time clocks,
in Taylor Hall, Dalton Hall, the
library and the science buildings,
The lantern men also will retain
their duties.
Vandalism and thefts occurring
on campus were the cause for the
hiring of the guards. Particularly
the president’s and the deans’
offices have been the objects of
vandalism.
Last November, for example,
a tapestry was stolen from Good-
hart Hall. Valued at $10,000, the
Gothic work of art from the lobby
of Goodhart depicts two women on
horseback surrounded by soldiers,
According to the DAILY PRINCE-
TONION Of Tuesday, January 5,
the insurance adjusters for the
tapestry, William E. Miller and
Son, believe that the theft may
have been a prank and are search-
ing for the art treasure on eastern
college campuses,
Mr. Walter Dodwell, Head Se-
curity Officer at Princeton, ap-
“pealed to Princeton students to
notify him if any one of them
should know the whereabouts of
the ‘tapestry.
. Mr. Dodwell’s appeal remains,
however, without results and the
whereabouts of the work of art
are as yet completely unknown,
Whether or not this tapestry is
found, the guards and other pro-
tective measures taken by the
college will hopefully prevent
similar thefts and vandalism in
the future.

“The Meaning of a Liberal Arts
Education’? will be the subject of
a seminar, Co- -sponsored by the So-
cial Action Committee and the
Students for a Democratic Society
in order to promote dialogue on
the Bryn Mawr campus.
The first part of the seminar
will deal with various aspects
of a liberal arts education and
iis validity. Among the topics will
be the relevance of the Bryn Mawr
courses to the real world, the effect
of required courses on depart-

The subject of the ease part
of the seminar will be -the role
of the student. An important ques-
tion here is whether or not it is
possible to be simultaneously a po-
litical activist and a student. There
will also be a _ discussion of
academic freedom. :
The program will largely in-
clude discussion. The Social Action

Editorial Board,
Lackenbach Selected Editor-in-Chief
The new order replaced the old
Monday night when the COLLEGE
NEWS staff elected its editorial
board for 1965. Lynne Lackenbach,
66, former NEWS managing
editor, will head the board as
editor-in-chief.
As editor, Lynne hopes to pub-
lish more ‘‘special’’ news issues
on important campus events as well
as new feature pages on national
and local student affairs, Through
letters. and’ news features written
by both NEWS staff members and
other interested students,. she also
hopes to utilize the NEWS’ potential
as a forum for student opinion. As
a chemistry major, Lynne hopes
to eventually combine science with
journalism by working in scientific ;
publication,
Karen. Durbin, ’°66, an English
major, will assist Lynne as as-
sociate editor. Before her election
to the associate editorship, Karen
served the NEWS as board mem-
ber-at-large . Pam Barald, 66,
the new managing editor, has pre-
viously served as make-up editor.
When asked about her new position,
Pam wees, **Anything but make-

Managing Editor. :
| Krugman, ’67, were elected make-
up editor and member -at-large ,
respectively.
Commenting on the new editorial
board, outgoing editor Anne Lov-
gren said; ‘*The staff was fortunate
enough to place very capable people *
in the positions for which they
were best qualified. Lynne Lacken-
bach should be a very fine NEWS
editor. Besides, she can write
reasonably cogent editorials at

eterna me, that’s important!’’
humor.
A full round of congratulations
was given to Alma Lee, creator
of the Ride Board, This is the new
Taylor Hall decoration, a large
map of the United States, replete
with destination hooks and cards
indicating the desire for either
rides or riders.
Also discussed was use of the
College .Inn building which, when
Erdman opens next year, will no
longer be emergency residential
quarters and will be entirely open
for student use. Suggestions in-
cluded equipping it with a pool
table and ice cream machines.
ys The Inn was also considered as
a place to put up dates or sub-
i freshmen for the night or as a
meeting hall for campus organiza-
tions. Any positive ideas go to the
Administration.
Among future plans Undergrad
hopes. to .bring former Mawrter
Katherine Hepburn here to talk
about Bryn Mawr traditions, in-
cluding the ‘‘ones she started when
she was here.” (It’s said that Miss
Hepburn was the first to take a
moonlight dip in the Cloisters
pond.)
The Bryn Mawr student-ex-
changes committee and the Social
Action Club said. they hoped to
collaborate in arranging a Seminar
Series for the second semester}
concerning the life ‘of the liberal
arts college student.
Definite plans for cultural ex-
changes are being made with
Lincoln University and Tougaloo
College. Also being considered are
academic exchanges with Benning-
ton College, St. John’s University,
or Rosemont,
Finally, for the devotees of

The group planning the seminar
includes Ginny Kerr and Mary
Thom, Rhoads; Sandy Shapiro and
Edna Perkins, Denbigh; and Judy
Baer, Wyndham. Also on the com-
mittee are Sharon Swingle, Merion;
Jean Trubek, Batten; and Jean Hunt
and ‘Margaret Levi, Rock. Notifica-
tion .of .meetings will be on the

The Social Action Committee
voted to sponsor this seminar at
its meeting Wednesday, January 6.
At this time the Committee elected
_ Jean Hunt ’67 and Margaret Levi
*68 as co-chairmen for the second
semester.
The Committee also voted to
have several additional programs.
Ginny Kerr ’66 and PaulaSchochet
’68 are planning a panel on ‘*The
Summer and Social Action,” which
' will include people from organiza-
tions such as Martin Luther King’s
Southern Christian Leadership
Conference, COFO, the Students
for a Democratic Society, and the
President’s War on Poverty, Their
representatives will speak on re-
spective needs and the jobs they
have for students in the coming
summer,
A program on the House Un-
American Activities Committee
will feature the film‘*Operation
Abolition’? produced by that com-
mittee. A speaker and discussion

- “At Bryn Mawr, nothing ever changes.’? But this year has been
different. A number of changes have been made, most of them good.
Two efficient, well organized legislatures were instrumental to the
changes in self government rules. But, more important, students were
interested enough in profitable change to take such issues as guests in
the rooms and the dress rule out of the realm of ‘‘smoker gripes’’ and
‘organize petitions to do something officially about them. The self
government board realized the feasibility of changing the driving rule,
and. drew up new, more relaxed regulations, which were accepted by
the legislature. In a different quarter of student affairs, The Second
American Revolution was organized to study the pressing national
problem of equal rights, These student efforts changed, to some degree,
the daily Bryn Mawr life in 1964 and increased the outlook and personal
responsibility of each student. ;
The implementation and acceptance of these changes by students,
faculty and administration have been remarkably good. It seems that
most. students have handled well the trust placed in them by Self-Gov.
and the Board of Trustees in their adaptation to increased freedom
and responsibility.
But what does all this prove? It proves nothing, but it does demonstrate
that Bryn Mawr students are interested enough in their own govern-
' mental institutions and in the world around them to question and to
change, constructively. Though our image of ivory-towerism may not be
shattered, there is at least some new ivy growing on the tower.

a
That is, the administration has responded to the recent rash of
burglaries and vandalisms on the premises by installing several campus
guards in addition to the college’s own watchmen. The operation, kept
to a minimum, is also a justifiable parallekto current library problems,
2 o’clock curfews, and the sale of tear gas in the book store.
Seriously, that guards are needed at all is unfortunate. To think that
outsiders are responsible for the malefactions is a lamentable reflec-
_ tion on the community, but to think ‘that students are responsible is a
\
sadder situation by far.
Yet the guards are necessary. Damage has been done, and damage
may continue. One can impose an honor system only as far as the
boundaries of the college, which fact points to a permanent need for
campus guards, :
We do hope, however, that a minimum of guards will suffice, and with
the installation of such safeguards as time clocks, we are certain the
campus will be secure without an overabundance of watchmen.
Precaution, indeed, is the mother of protection.

And Leave the Driving...
Taylor Hall now boasts the incarnation of a long-discussed idea -- a
ride bulletin board. No one ever disputed the value and usefulness of a
means of uniting those who wanted rides with those who wanted riders.
No one, however, bothered to take the plan past the talking stage until.
now.
Alma Lee is personally responsible for the new ride board, She was
not content with merely recognizing a good idea; she took the time and
trouble to act on it. The result is a practical method of solving trans-
portation problems for the entire campus, ‘
Under the new driving rule, students will be able to keep cars in the
area during second semester. The prospect of Bryn Mawr cars makes
this an especially appropriate time ee the appearance of the
ride board, aaa
We thank Alma for her successful efforts to break the barrier of
passive planning. We hope her initiative will spark others to a similar °
. course of action.
Haverford Exams
All Bryn Mawr students taking mid-year
examinations for Haverford courses will
take the examinations AT BRYN MAWR.
The examinations must be picked up from
the Dean’s Office, Taylor, ten minutes
before the examination is scheduled to
begin. At the close of the examination,
students are to return completed examina-
tions to. the Dean’s Office, Students are
reminded that they are personally respon-
sible for turning in all examination materi-

Guiding Procedure
Complaints about the Campus
Guide system from two sources ,
‘ are resulting in an effort torevise
the current methods, The problem
is not inadequacy on the part of
the Guides themselves, but the
lack of efficient coordination be-
tween the Guides and the Admis-
sions Office. :
Miss Hillary Henneke, a mem-
ber of the Bryn Mawr Admissions
Office, explains that the .present
‘system schedules several girls to
be simultaneously on call, which
involves their being available in
the dormitory for a period of two
hours each week. However, in
practice, often no one can be se-
cured, either because the guide
cannot be located or contacted,
or .if she is found, she is not
prepared to guide.
Guides themselves are.unhappy
with the present situation, prim-
arily due to lack of organization.
Also, they feel that the pay, which
is campus minimum, is inadequate
in~ vi ofthe expectations and
restrictions that being on call
implies; i.e., if a girl is not
“called for three weeks, she has
presumably beendressed and well-
groomed, and been within the con-
fines of the dormitory during her
hours, and received no pay at all
for her efforts.
Since there seems to be little
hope’ for an increase in pay, the
answer is thought to lie in using
fewer girls with more certainty
of their being called. One idea
being tried .now is to have only
two girls on call, but for a time-
block of four hours..Not only does
the probability of actually guiding
increase, points out Miss Henneke,
but with the reduced number of
girls it is possible to pay each
of them one dollar for just being
available, in addition to whatever
they make giving tours,

Many Review At Midnight
Others Gaze
By Erica Hahn
The pre-examination syndrome
is a paradox that has puzzled
greater minds than ours since
5348 B, C,, (the founding date of
Mugwug Institute). Thus fore-
warned, we too. slash our way
through the nonsense, Panic is now
outmoded among knowledgeable
students. It takes time away from
compulsive eating,
Pre-examination reading has al-
ways been handy for those who
have not read anything during their
at the Moon
courses. Since recommendations
are, of course, in order, we sug-
gest, for Phil 101, ‘*Philadelphia
Discovered.’’? Too deep? How
about ‘‘Dr. No???
Studying in its more rigorous
forms is also undertaken by the
masochistic. This includes re-
reading old notes, visiting class
and smiling at professors, The
last is only for those who use
tooth paste.
A great deal of coffee is drunk
by those for whom it ts-their
life blood. Those for whom blood
is their life blood are watching
carefully for the next full moon,
The-library reports that during
the exam-period a great many books
tend to make unannounced, de-
partures, The area most plagued
by such thefts is the Quita Wood-
ward Memorial Room. No viola-
tions of the books and ink-rule
have been reported yet this year,
Educators recommend that one
study at a desk with a straight-
back chair, complete silence, anda
light falling over the left shoulder.
Frequently many students do use a
straight-back chair ... upon which
to rest their feet. The light, while.
falling, sometimes breaks and de-
scends the' room into darkness,
not always conducive to study.
Humility is one of the results
of concentrated study, a realiza-
tion that no one can éver know
everything. Unfortunately very few
professors will accept the fact
’ that it is their subject about which
one cannot know everything. Cer-
tainly it should be enough to reach
a minimum ... knowing nothing.
For many, the most important
function of the pre-exam period is
planning for the inter-session holi-
day. Ah, shall it be St. Moritz with
dear Karim, Aspen with darling
Alain Delon, or The Edge with
Haverford Harry? ~~

To the Editor:
It seems students now have a
new way of insuring early and ef-
ficient Mawrterdom -- by simply
walking around the campus. Walks
which were speedily shoveled when
the snow ended Sunday night have
‘been, at best, sketchily sanded.
That is, the areas which are sanded
resemble modified Hopi Indian sand
paintings -- small cryptic swirls
with the emphasis on background

Those of us returning from Park

break a leg, and be chipped out in

To College Board
Of ‘Madamoiselle’
Mademoiselle Magazine recent-
ly cited Bryn Mawr senior Cally
MacNair as one of 45 members
of its College Board, as a result
of her entering its annual cre-—
ative contest.
Cally, who also received $20
for producing one of the top ten
entries, was head of Arts Coun-
cil last year and notes that her
entry was comparable to that or-
ganization’s bulletin board.
Mademoiselle’s College Com-
petitions Editor wrote to Cally:
‘Well, we liked it (her entry) for
a whole lot of reasons; The ad-
vertising campaign proper was full
of ideas. It was warm, open,
kaleidoscopic, It had: humor...
And we just loved it, so we de-
cided to give you a prize (en-
closed.)’’
Cally will enter a second assign-
ment in February to compete fora
Guest Editorship, which involves
working with the magazine in New
York next June. .
Her jobasaCollege Board mem-
ber, however, will be to report
news of college trends and to sug-
gest subjects for further investi-
gation.

wife, Phaedra (Diana Willis), is
much younger than he. and falls
in love with Hippolytus. He has
devoted his life to serve Artemis
(Anne Lovgren), the goddess of
light and the hunt and does not
return Phaedra’s love. The god-
dess of love, Aphrodite (Carol
Cain), ‘is angry with Hippolytus
and \ induces Phaedra to tell
Theseus that Hippolytus has made
love to her. This is the. back-
ground for the tragedy.

Hilary Hosmer; the chorus leader,
Barbara Oppenheim; and members
of the chorus, Caroline Willis,

Social Conference
Yields Suggestions
For Interchanges
Caroline Willis, Bryn Mawr so-
cial chairman, and Ruth Levy rep-
resented Bryn Mawr at a work-
shop on social programming held
January 9 at Sarah Lawrence Col-
lege. Barnard, Columbia, Prince-
ton and Vassar also participated
in the conference, which was
designed to offer an opportunity
for interchange of ideas about so-
cial planning. es
The morning session was spent
on reports from each school about
what has been being done about
social life, (Caroline reports; ‘‘We
have almost everything that every-
one else has except money and
beer.’*) 8
The afternoon session was de-
voted to ‘‘griping about -mixers’’
(‘We all agreed that really big
huge mixers are bad’’), comparing
freshman week programs, and
various suggestions for improved
social life. Bryn Mawr ideas which
particularly appealed to the other
schools were square dances, inter-
college baseball and volleyball
games, ‘‘Theconference did point
to one glaring fault in Bryn Mawr’s
social program,’’ says Caroline.
**Every other school has a student
union where boys can come to meet
girls. Sarah Lawrence’s even has
a pool table.’’

007 Back Once More
By Nanette Holben
The Bond in ‘‘Goldfinger’’ has
grown to maturity ‘since ‘‘From
Russia with Love’’ and we get him
in thislatest film with compound
interest on~all that 007 can give.
Invulnerable, ingenius, and per-
haps a bit infamous;~although
pleasantly so, is Ian Fleming’s
James Bond, in whose role Sean
Connery is, per usual, no less than
devastating. At any rate:
On the first day of espionage
the agency gave Bond: a bright
shiny sports car with built-in-
radar,. bullet proof’ shields, right
nd left headlight machine guns,
an oil slick squirter, a smoke
screen blower,, a revolving inter-'
national license plate, an ejector
seat, and a partridge in a pear
tree (the latter more affection-
ately known as Pussy Galore, who
roosts rather in a ‘hay stack--
another story).
From which point our man goes
gallivanting (and gallantly, to say
the least) around Europe io un-

smuggling ventures.
From which point the intrigue

Communication Impossible.
In ‘Blacks’? By J. Genet
By Marian Scoon
“The Blaetae. «Siow Show?—
by Jean Genet is written for a’
Negro cast. The audience should
be all white - there must be at
least one white or a symbolic
white, if only a dummy, in the
audience, °
The play involves two levels
on stage. Played by blacks wear -
ing hideous white ‘masks, are a
court made up of ‘a queen, mis-
sionary, governor, judge, and
valet.
They sit above a group of
blacks in evening clothes pre-
pared to entertain the court with
their play.
The masks: act as judges of
the play the blacks will present --
it is the enactment of a ritual
rape and murder of a white
woman by a black man. After
the masked spectators have seen
the murder, they will judge the
black. As they have done this
all their lives, the passing of
judgement. is only another part
of the ritual. It is what the masked
‘‘whites’’ want to see and think
they will see,
The participation of the masks
in the black’s ritual is only one
level of participation required in
this play. The audience too be-
comes involved by being pre-
sented with afearsome reflection
of themselves, in the white-
masked blacks,
Although there may be audi-
ence involvement in the play,
there may not be communication. —
This¥ is made clear. when one
of the blacks ‘says: ‘*. . . This
evening we shall perform for you.
But, in order that you may re-
main comfortably settled in your
seats, . . . that you be assured
that there is no danger of such
a-drama’s worming its way into
your previous lives, we shall
even have the decency ... to
make communication impossible
