Undergrad_V.P. to Take On- Civil Rights Conference Attracts -
Job of NSA Co-ordinator

This week Undergrad voted and
agreed to include the office Of NSA.

. Coordinator in the duties “of the

Undergrad vice president.

Judy Zinsser proposed this con-*
solidation of offices as an amend-
ment to the Undergrad constitution.

‘The motion was passed unanimous -:

ly and in February a formal amend-
ment will be drawn up.

None of the qualifications for the
office of Undergrad vice_president
will be changed. During the spring
élections there. will be an opportu-
nity to meet the vice presidential
candidates after the election of the

“President.

The amendment will give Under-
grad representation at the NSA

conference as well as Self Gov.
The importance of the vice’ pres-
ident’s office will in turn increase
with her responsibility to NSA and

“she will add a broadened point of

view to Undergrad itself..

_ We are now at half-way point
in the drive. The College es-
timates that we are at the $5
million mark now since $4.6 mil-

is still being compiled.

concerning the furtive activities of

and ‘Hitherto ‘and Ever After,”
in which the class of ’66 suggested
what can happen when a little girl

A Disgrace

Humiliated. That is how anyone who supports the ideals of the «
.Civil Rights Movement should feel after the Philadelphia Mummers

Parade fiasco.

The court order banning the use of black face makeup by partici-
pants in the ‘annual Philadelphia New Year’s Day parade which Cecil
Moore obtained on behalf of the NAACP served in no way whatsoever |
to advance the cause of civit rights. You might as well ban. Genet’s
THE BLACKS from all theaters because Negro actors in it use white
masks. Indeed there might be a more substantial cause for protest
there, since the play is actively hostile to whites.

Anyone who says that the Mummers tou a more than a ‘«misrule”

says that it $hows active
hostility and prejudice against Negroes, has a distorted mind.

If the Civil Rights Movement is going to retain the idealism with

_ which it began, the idealism which, seen in action during the Washington

March last summer, was profoundly alec it cannot allow this kind
of deterioration. .

Anyone who believes that the NAACP is a “fanatic,” semi- militant
organization, certainly got reassurance from this recent NAACP
peccadillo.



30

January’ is the month when we, often painfully, have to .measure
our achievements against the goals we have set. Tbs year has marked

“an unusual number of achievements.

We have reached the second year of the Ford Grant Drive, and Ford
Foundation Funds have already begun to expand the horizons of the
College. We have watched the plans for Erdman Hall and the new

_ “Science building come off the drawing-board and become tangible, if

still somewhat muddy, realities. We have seen student belief in the
Civil Rights Movement take form in plans for the monumental Second
American Revolution Conference, and sometimes in protests which °
landed us unexpectedly in jail.

Plans for revision of the curriculum and for enlargement of the
Library as well, are in progress. WBMC has been reactivated; Self-
Gov. is re-examining the driving rule, a sore spot for many students;
Undergrad, has- revised its. budgetary policy and attempted a solution
of the NSA problem by combining the jobs of Undergrad vice president

and NSA Co-ordinator, THE COLLEGE NEWS, with. considerable — -
Struggles, has been entirely revamped and expanded.

In all, the College has given signs ‘of a tremendous broadening of
horizons. This year’s. achievements have, not been made without
considerable effort and sacrifice. Many of them have been in the
planning stage for years. Bryn Mawr is a small college with big

‘ ideas. We all have ideas; brilliant, revolutionary, creative. But they

mostly never become anything more. Those people who try to make~-
their ideas into realities find themselves beating their heads against °

the wall. Everyone welcomes new ideas, but no one _— to put them ~

into effect.
If January is a time for measuring achievement, it is also a'time

for beginnings. Most of the projects now in progress have not been

completed, and they won’t be without considerable work. We can’t
all give a million dollars to the Ford Drive or help slap cement on
Erdman so it really can be opened this fall, But we can go to the
Alliance. conference, attend Undergrad meetings, give suggestions
to the library and curriculum committees, support WBMC and sub-
scribe to. THE COLLEGE NEWS, There is noreason why our smallness



’ must be a weakness, and so many of our big ideas a dead end.

BMC Student From Panama -
Remarks. on Canal Violence

” by. Frida Attia, "6

(Frida, who lives in Colon near
Panama City was home over
Christmas and left Panama just
‘beforé the recent outbreak ‘of vio-
: lence.) :

In 1903 the Republic of Panama
and the United States of America
‘Signed a treaty. Among the‘other
things then. stipulated, Panama
leased in perpetuity to the United
States, a 10-mile zone (known as
the Panama Canal Zone) for the
purpose of the defense, mainte-
nance and sanitation of the Panama
Canal, ;

Ever since, the problem of Pana-
ma’s sovereignty in this piece of
land has been a frequent cause of
disturbances.

The flag issue which, brought
about the rioting of the past few

days is ‘in essence the same prob-
“lem. The disorders began with a
scuffle between American and
Panamanian students. Unfortun-
ately, this scuffle developed into

.-mob-_ rioting which--has-caused-the-

death of several Panamanian stu-
dents and American soldiers, as
well as hundreds of wounded.

The bitter anti-American feel-
ings as well as the seemingly pre-

organized nature of the riotinghas ~

been something of a surprise to
many Panamanians and Americans
alike, for relations between the
two countries have been quite
friendly for the past few years.

However, now that these latent

' feelings have come to the surface

in the present crisis, I trust that
both countries will come to a
compromise: The country that
labored so to build the Panama
Canal and the country whose land
was divided to unite the world.

Exam Scheduling

‘To the Editor:
We think that the present system

of scheduling exams at Bryn Mawr
creates unnecessary problems for
many students.

Because exams dates are arbi-
trarily assigned, students cannot
utilize their time to best advan-
tage. Often students have exam

scheduled close together and are
unduly pressured for time to study,
Others have three, four, or even
eight days between exams. This
excess of free days is neither a

~- vacation nor a profitable time for

hinted
- We feel that the complete or

"partial self-scheduling of exams

would eliminate these problems
and that the student body would

appreciate the administration’s -°

considering this system.

Perhaps the most interesting

must be made to this performance
was that only two of the composi-

very presence was intimidating,
