Neither snow nor rain nor sleet nor hail shall stay these Mawrters from

the swift completion of their appointed duties. Some individual with
considerable forethought even purchased plastic streamers for the water

logged may poles.

Sport, Dance, Boat Ride
Highlight Soph Weekend

A boat ride, spectator sports
and a dance will be the highlights
of the Sophomore Weekend this
Friday and Saturday, May 1 and 2.

A rock and roll band will pro-
vide music for dancing at the boat
ride on the Delaware River. Liquid
refreshments will also be served.
Rides will leave Pem Arch at 8:15
pem., however those students who
have cars are urged to drive in-
stead.

Although there will be no carni-
val as in the past, this year a
number of sports events have been
planned. At Haverford on Saturday
there will, be a cricket match be-
tween the Haverford alumni and the
college team. Tea will be served
around 4 p.m. at the half, Haver-
ford also will be competing against
Swarthmore in track and tennis at
Haverford and in sailing and base-
ball at Swarthmore.

A ‘*formal preferred’’ dance
will end the Weekend Saturday
night. Clyde Emerson and his six

piece band will play in Founders
Hall from 9 p.m. until 2, and re-
freshments will be served at mid-
night in the Haverford common
room.

The cost of the entire weekend
per couple is three dollars, or two
dollars for either the boat ride or
the dance. Tickets are on sale in
Taylor from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m., or
they may be purchased at the dock
for the boat ride or at the door
for the dance. Out-of-town dates
may be boarded at Haverford,

A blanket 3 a.m. permission
has been extended for signouts
both Friday and Saturday nights.

The combined Haverford-Bryn
Mawr Weekend will coincide with
Bryn Mawr’s May Day festivities
and Haverford’s Alumni Day.

Further information about any
of the events may be had from the
sophomore organizers of the
Weekend; Sam Hopkins (Haverford)

more. She -has worked for the
college in computer programming,
particularly for the faculty cur-
riculum committee. She comes
from Cheshire, England.

H. R. M. Judy Zinsser
Delivers ‘Edict of May’

In true Bryn Mawr fashion, May
Day Queen Judy Zinsser spoke this
morning in a vein closely corres-
ponding to ‘‘the history and phi-
losophy of May Day from its be-
ginnings to the present day.’’

After commenting briefly on
archaic May Days, Queen Judy
traced the celebration into the
Elizabethan era, then compared

Miss McBride Generates New Catalogue,

Plots Bulb Rationing, Recharges Infirmary

Ed. note. below is the text of the
speech which Miss McBride gave
this morning at the May Day as-
sembly.

We are writing the 1964-65 cata-

logue and we have come up with
a new thrust. I wanted to let you
know.

Wwe’ve made changes wherever
we could this year because the
type is to be reset. We tried not
to say anything we had said be-
fore but we did have to repeat
‘¢philadelphia’’ and ‘*Paoli’’; and
we are also using English as our
first language.

Bryn Mawr was founded by stu-
dents in order to bring speakers
into warm buildings. It has been
increasingly successful in attain-
ing this objective and is now by
means of agrant from Ford Found-
dation seeking other forms of con-
frontation.

Beginning in fall of 1964, a new
plan will improve faculty-student
relations. It is expected to involve
some delay in the opening of the
College, and Thanksgiving dinner

will therefore be eliminated.

By the new plan, students will
move to faculty homes and apart-
ments, and faculty with minor chil-
dren will move to the residence
halls, where they will be freed for
informal faculty-student relations.
It is understood that faculty will
not be disturbed after their lights
are out. If, however, lights are out
from Sunday to Thursday, new
bulbs will be required.

In this catalogue the section on
courses has been eliminated. The
change is made because all Bryn
Mawr courses will, after Septem-
ber 1964, be those given in other
colleges. These courses must be
registered by students by July
unless they are former Bryn Mawr
Courses, in which case they must
be given off campus. Students wish-
ing to know about former Bryn
Mawr courses should consult the
Haverford College Library, Cura-
tor of Rare Books.

Scholarships formerly awarded
to Bryn Mawr students have been

legally transferred to the United
College Office of Financial Aid
and Full Time Employment, A few
scholarships can be retrieved from
colleges with computer systems
identical with the Bryn Mawr -
Haverford IBM 1620, provided
those colleges are the same col-
leges in which the student has
found a course,

A building formerly used as an
infirmary has been closed to pro-
vide a student union, The old equip-
ment of the infirmary is being
removed as rapidly as it can be
sold since this equipment is not
considered appropriate for a stu-
dent union.

No new equipment is planned for
the faculty in the residence halls,
other than the light bulbs -- which
will be furnished each Friday
morning. Students moving into
faculty housing will have certain
needs for new equipment, These
will be CONSIDERED each Fri-
day morning!

and contrasted this with the ultra
modern, mechanized, militarized
Soviet May Day. Comments ye
queene, ‘they don’t hop, they
march instead.’’? Being a Quaker
college, Bryn Mawrters, of course,
ignore these modern refinements
and rest quietly in the Elizabethan
tradition.

Being a modern and perceptive
monarch, Judy theorized on the
“Spirit of May Day.’? She sur-
mised that Bryn Mawrters are too
tortured and introverted and then
suggested that, as a cure for these
ills, the May Day spirit be insti-
tuted as a year-round tradition.

She cited several changes which
have helped to contribute to this
extension of may day festivity. The
new ‘fopen door’? -- or rather
open dorm -- policy on Friday
nights helps us share our spirits
- May Day, of course - far into
the night. The ‘¢men inthe rooms’?
rule allow more timid Bryn Mawr-
ters to sing, hop and dance with
similarly minded males in the
relative privacy of their own
rooms,

One step, however, has been
rather dismal, i.e., the extension
of library hours. ‘This was a back-
ward step,’’ saith ye queen, with
an irony vast and mincing,

Also, BMC’s myriad ipso facto
organization present intriguing
possibilities. ‘‘Why not make
Dance Club ipso facto too?’’

When queried about her sudden
ascendency to the May Day throne,
Judy first said, ‘‘The whole idea
appeals tremendously,’’ and then
confessed (whisper) ‘I have a
Napoleon complex, you know.’’






Candy Simpson, a chemistry
major, has been offered a Ford

to three members of the junior Grant for summer research,

Ann Allan, a junior, was chosen
by the history department to re-
ceive the Elizibeth Duane Gillespie
Scholarship in American History.
A present resident of German
House, Ann plans to visit Germany
this summer.

Jane Hutchins, a British Grad-
uate Scholar was awarded the Am-
erican Academy of Poets Prize.
This prize is awarded to the stu-
dent who submits to the English
department the best poem or group
of poems.

Sallee Horhovitz, ’64, received
the Bain-Swiggett Poetry prize.
This prize is awarded annually
by a committee of the Faculty on
the basis of work submitted. Sallee
is co-editor of the 1964 Yearbook.

The Katharine Fullerton Gerould
Memorial Prize was awarded to
Barbara Wyler, ’65. Honorable
mention went to Pat Collins, ’65.

Barbara, an anthropology major,
has been active in Arts Council.
She is presently studying poetry
and prose composition in the Ex-
perimental writing course



ZDENKA KOPAL

Connie Rosenblum and Diane
Willis received the Sheelah Kilroy
Memorial Scholarships in English.

Connie, a junior English major
won the Kilroy award for excel-
lence of work in second year or
advanced courses in English. Con-
nie has served for three years on
the COLLEGE NEWS, and has held
the offices of Member at Large
to the Editorial Board and, pre-
sently, Associate Editor, She was
recently elected editor of the 1965
Yearbook.

Diane Willis received the Kilroy
award for the best essay written
during the Freshman Comp.
course. She wrote her prize-win-

ning essay on ULYSSES. a

Faculty Prerogatives

The letter recently sent to THE COLLEGE NEWS (see ‘‘Letters
to the Editor’? column) and every Bryn Mawr Faculty member has
prompted considerable concern and disturbance among faculty mem-
bers and students alike,

Certain unfortunate aspects of this letter are immediately apparent.
Many faculty and students feel that the examples cited of lack of
faculty interest in student affairs and social problems are not valid
ones, Faculty members may choose other means for their personal
participation in causes such as the civil rights movement, And it is
certainly their prerogative to choose the directions, as well as the
type and number, which their personal concerns may take, It is
certainly not a student prerogative to demand interest or participa-
tion in any particular effort.

The letter also cited poor faculty attendance at the Civil Rights
Conference and the Vietnam discussions, Students, as well, might be
questioned about their attendance and interest in the recent ‘‘Soviet
Women’’ symposium,

The most detrimental aspect of this letter, however, was its mis-
representation of the writers’ honest desire to improve student-
faculty relations. These students distributed flyers to the faculty
containing constructive proposals for improvement of this relationship
which far better clarified their intentions and motives than their
letter did. We hope the faculty will consider the content and intention
of the flyers presented to them more indicative of student intentions
than the tone of the letter received Wednesday,

Non-partisan Protest

Almost every issue which has caught the public attention recently has
become confused, rightly or wrongly, with the civil rights question. An
obvious example of this is the recent activity in Chester, which was
originally sparked off by a protest against sub-standard and inadequate
school facilities,

The same confusion of issues is likely to result as a result of the
legislative move to revoke the charter of Tougaloo (Miss.) College, It
is true, of course, that Tougaloo has been the site of active civil rights

protest. But this consideration has no bearing upon the fact that the

’

legislature’s move is a direct affront to the students’ basic right to an
education.

The issue does have a relation, indirectly, tothe civil rights question.
Southerners have often made the charge that Negroes, because they
have had an inferior education, are unqualified to vote. If this is true,
Negroes will surely not become better educated by the closing of the
few Negro colleges in the South,

However, this question must not be confused with civil rights.
Neither liberals nor conservatives have any legitimate reason for re-
fusing to support Tougaloo’s protest. The right to an education is a
fundamental part of our laws. Essentially it is the reason we are
in college. Any affront to this right demands protest and indignation.

Help!

It seems almost too beautiful a day to complain about something as
sordid as this year’s exam schedules. After all, maybe we should be
merrily frisking around the gaily-streamered maypoles (assuming
they’re still here), leisurely munching our strawberries, or surrepti-
tiously practicing hoop rolling in the Cloisters.

But it is precisely because of the exam schedules that many of us are
unable even to consider doing any of these things.

The arguments for and against self-scheduled exams have been bandied
about for too long to have any potency repeated again here. Students
plead for them; faculty and administration object onthe grounds that we
are hereto learn responsibility andthat tohave four exams the first days
of exam week is the ideal way toteach us such responsibility, They warn
us that later in life we will have to endure hardships far beyond that of
having too many exams in too few days, that we must prime ourselves
for such hardships NOW,

But the lack of self-scheduled exams is highly inconsistent with Bryn
Mawr’s policies in other areas of academic life. For example, all stu-
dents are required to write their exams under the same physical con-
ditions -- ie, in the same room -- although they are free to leave the
exam room any time during the three hours, This is a sensible rule,
But where is the logic in assuming that a student who has had ten days
to study is writing under the same conditions as one who has had
exams on the three or four days preceding?

The success of the Haverford system has been observed upon and
commended, Eventually it will have to replace Bryn Mawr’s inefficient,
cumbersome, and basically unfair system. It is unfortuante, however,
that so many students are going through such agony (hardly a strong
enough word to describe this year’s exam schedules) before such a
change can be made,



LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Academia?

Ed. note

Copies of this letter were sent
by the undersigned students to
members of the faculty on Wed-
nesday morning.

To The Editor:

Are the educational aims of the
Bryn Mawr Faculty purely aca-
demic?* We--and a great number
of students-- are appalled by the
lack of faculty attendance at lec-
tures and conferences on current
and critical problems. For exam-
ple, there were no more than ten
faculty members at the Civil Rights
Conference in February, and none
at the recent discussion of the
problem in South Vietnam held on
the Bryn Mawr campus. This dis-
cussion arose from a situation
which has IMPORTANT implica-
tions for academic freedom. In
what way is the faculty concerned
with the student? Do they wish to
prepare the student for effective
living, as a member «4 society; or
do they wish to perpetuate the
academic isolation of the student?
We do not object to academic pur-
suits as such. But we maintain
that there is a larger frame of
reference without which academic
pursuits are meaningless. We want
to accept our responsibilities; we
also want the faculty to accept
theirs.

Ed. Note:

This letter was received after the
above letter had been received by
the NEWS and the faculty.

To The Editor;

We would like to apologize for
any offense our letter may have
caused, when certainly none was
intended. Our purpose was to pro-
mote discussion on theimportance
of faculty-student relations in the
over-all educational process,

Lack of attendance at confer-
ences and lectures is not our pri-
mary complaint, In this respect-
the students are as much at fault
as the faculty, Our concern is with
the exchange of interests andideas
which are often stimulated by lec-
tures. We feel adeep committment

to encourage this exchange and to .

perhaps improve it.

We are very sorry that our!
letter was ambiguous and conveyed
the impression of insolence. We
sent personal copies toeach mem-
ber of the faculty and the admin-
istration because we wanted them
to see it before it was published
in The College News. Our purpose
in writing this letter was sincere:
our desire was for greater com-
munication between faculty and
students outside the classroom,

Chorus

To the Editor:

Il.

Ile

I would like to announce the
new Officers of Chorus for 1964-
1965: Donna Macek, Vice-
President; Judy Goodwin, Sec-
retary; Janet Brown, Librarian;
and Martha Beveridge, Librarian,

We have exciting new plans such!
as system and order, and the
creation of a vibrant atmosphere
in which each member can con-
tirbute and gain as an important
part of a whole group; this, in
turn, will be reflected in the quality
of the singing.

Our first program next year
is for President Kennedy’s Mem-
orial on Nov. 22, when Paul Hind-
ermith’s arrangement of Walt
Whitman’s WHENLILACS LAST IN
THE DOORYARD BLOOM’D will be
performed with the Haverford Col-
lege Glee Club,

Through each member, Chorus
will be an integral part of College
life. We hope that non-Chorus
Members will take an increasing
interest in us, for Chorus is an
important group, if not the only
one, that represents our College
to the outside world. We welcome
constructive criticisms and all
suggestions. Thank You.

Tougaloo
To The Editor:

Monday, May 4, at 9:45 p.m., in
the Roost, Undergrad will discuss
a letter received from NSA, con-
cerning the proposed revocation of
the charter of Tougaloo University.

The pending bill before the Mis-
Sissippi Legislature evidentiy will
be passed unless pressure of some
sort can be exerted onthe lawmak-
ers and the governor.

Tougaloo has been actively in-
volved in the civil rights movement
in the South, and has been respon-
sible for civil disturbances. How-
ever, the closing of a University
does not seem to be a legitimate
way to counteract these distur-
bances. On these grounds, Bryn
Mawr could have been closed in
the 1900’s for having Suffragettes
who were responsible for riots.

Undergrad hopes to pass areso-
lution supporting the University,
which will be sent to legislators
and the governor.

Such a resolution is not expect-
ed to be very effective. However,
it is the only contribution we can
make at this time.

A more effective stand could be
made by the Bryn Mawr faculty and
by the National Federation of
Teachers,

The passage of this bill would
establish a dangerous precedent

and it is hoped that our faculty
are sufficiently concerned with
this threat to education to take
action. The National Federation
coula encourage Mississippi
teachers to threaten resignation,
in the event of the bill’s passage.
Perhaps the lawmakers would bet-
ter understand this kind of pres-
sure.

Sincerely,

Gill Bunshaft

Vice-President of Undergrad

and NSA representative

Schuetz Warblers

To The Editor;

With reference to your article
“Schuetz Warbling Wows Alum-
nae’’ (April 22), I felt that the mem-
bers of the Schuetz Group as well as
other Bryn Mawr and Haverford
‘friends of Schuetz’ would be inter-
ested in the following comments.
The first comes from the President
of the Bryn Mawr Clubof Washing-
ton, D.C., Mrs. Frank Hammond,
who writes:

*¢, eI cannot tell you how much
all our alumnae and guests en-
joyed your delightful concert!
Believe me--the combined group
--is a most successful ‘experi-
ment’--and the music was just
magnificent... You are wonder-
ful ‘public relations agents’ for
Bryn Mavwr...’’

The second comes from Eliza-
beth Reed (’62) who was in charge
of the Washington arrangements
for the Group:

**The Bryn Mawr Alumnae Club
was delighted with your Wash-
ington spring concert, and I am
happy to tell you that the Hein-
rich Schuetz Singers raised
more money for the local schol-
arship fund than any similar
group has done before. Congrat-
ulations on a job well done, and
we look forward to a future con-
cert...”

It is wonderful to be appreciated, -
and I hope that future members of
the Group will enjoy return trips
as much as we enjoyed this one.

Sincerely yours,

Anda Polyzoides

President of the Bryn Mawr-
Haverford Schuetz Group

Consideration?

To the Editor:

I am very much disturbed by
the thoughtless negligence of
people on this campus. What is
wrong when professed interest in
a given subject fails to carry
through to action? Why is it that
Bryn Mawrtyrs feel that they take
on no responsibility when their
expressed interests create a pro-
ject? Are they aware of the time
and effort which goes into plan-
ning activities on this campus?

The immediate cause of my
annoyance is the response to the
Interfaith-sponsored trip to the
Circle Mission of Father Divine
in Philadelphia. The trip was plan-
ned for Thursday evening, and
twenty-five names were signed
on the list in Taylor. On Thursday
two girls showed up at Pem Arch,
The other girls seem to have
forgotten or simply decided to
study, at the last moment.

Because of the interest shown,
I had asked two Haverfordians
to drive into Philadelphia, this
in addition to the student-driven
college station wagon. Three cars
were ready and waiting on Thurs-
day evening, driven by people will-
ing to sacrifice this time to take
twenty-five ‘‘interested’? Bryn
Mawr students to Philadelphia.

Can the point be clearer? Such
total lack of responsible action
hardly seems compatible with our
Status of intelligent, educated
young women - ‘leaders of our so-
ciety’? in the not-so-distant fut-
ure? Courtesy is an important
quality in anyone.

Sincerely,
Carly Wade
President of the Interfaith Assoc,

Undergrad on May Day: Vietnam Film Gives New Perspective

Destruction Deplored

Undergrad opened last Monday

It was hoped this year that Bryn
Mawr students would not aid or

Arts Council Maps
Next Year’s Plans:
Tickets and Talent

Arts Council met Tuesday after-
noon to organize and outline its
program for next year, President
Diana Hamilton said that the plans
are centered around encouraging
the students both to participate in
Arts Council activities and to ex-
ploit their own talents.

New projects for the Council in-
clude a poster committee, compos-
ed of willing and able slaveysfrom
each hall; a Haverford-Bryn Mawr
calendar of events, (closer cooper-
ation and coordination between the
cultural and aesthetic elements of
both campuses will presumably
enrich each, and next year the
Haverford and Bryn Mawr Councils
hope to work together to greater
advantage); organized trips to pri-
vate collections in the area; and a
regular movie series ‘‘featuring
GOOD movies, Bogart, Chaplin,
maybe even Fellini.’’

An ‘tespecially exciting’’ inno-
vation next year will be a contest,
sponsored by Council and the Re-
view, for original one-act plays.
The winners will be directed in an
experimental presentation of, by,
and for students.

Arts Council will continue to
provide the symphony series in
September and tickets for various
events throughout the year, A tic-
ket commission will try to make
tickets more available by pooling
unused tickets and redistributing
them, Arts night will be produced
as usual, and a program of speak-
ers will be maintained with em-
phasis on lecturers of interest
who are area experts, for example
from the Barnes collection or
Philadelphia Museum of Fine Arts.

Student suggestion and interest
are the factors that can and should
determine Council’s program, Di-
ana Hamilton and your hall rep-
resentative are approachable and
receptive .o your ideas. Lists
will be posted in Taylor next week
for nominations to Secretary and
Treasurer.

Panofsky Presents Thesis
On Death’s Positive Side

A quotation from St. Ambrose --
“«Mors testimonium vitae”’ -- pro-
vided the subject of a lecture
presented by art historian Erwin
Panofsky on Monday night.

Offer a Wide Variety of New Courses

Several entirely new courses
will be offered at Bryn Mawr
next year. In addition, many stan-
dard courses, especially those be-
ing taught by new professors, will
also undergo changes in approach
and subject matter.

New courses are being offered
in economics, political science,
sociology and anthropology, and
philosophy.

The Department of Economics
will provide a new advanced course
(intended primarily for seniors)
entitled ‘‘American Economic De-
velopment.”’

Mr. Duboff, who will be teaching
at Bryn Mawr for the first time,
has announced that the course
will discuss ‘long-run trends in
the indicated macro-economic
variables’’ with emphasis on such
topics as industrial development
and technical change, the Ameri-
can system of manufacture, and
the dual economy. No special
knowledge of statistical mathe-
matics is required, he noted,

Three new courses will be avail-
able for students interested in

political science. Miss Leighton
will lecture on ‘‘Values, Science,
and Politics.’”’ Mr. Brass, a new
professor, will teach a course on
‘Government and Politics inSouth
Asia, India, Pakistan and Ceylon.”
These areas were not covered
last year,

There will also be a new 200
course entitled ‘Politics of the
Developing Areas,’’ ‘The Soviet
System’’, taught by Mr. Hunter
at Haverford, has always been in-
cluded in the curriculum sche-
dule; next year two more Haver-
ford courses will also be listed:
“Public Administration and
Bureaucracy’’, by Mr. Diamant,
and ‘African Politics’, by Mr.
Glickman. .

The Departments of Sociology
and Anthropology have announced
three additional courses. There
will be an advanced ‘‘History of
Anthropology’, taught by Mr.
Hallowell, a noted anthropologist
formerly at Penn,

“Social Stratification’’, dealing
with class and status systems in

the U.S.A. and other countries, is
the title of a course to be taught
by Mr. Levantman, There is also
a mysterious course ‘208 ae
whose content is ‘‘as yet undeter-
mined.”

Philosophy, History, and Math-
ematics have also announced
changes, ‘‘American Philosophy”
will be a new feature in the Phi-
losophy Department. The History
Department has expanded ‘‘Topics
in the History of the Modern Near
East’, by Mr. Silver, from a
half-year course to a year course.
«Advanced English History” will
hereafter cover a specific field
each year. Next year, it will be
“The Victorians’’, taught by Miss
Robbins.

The Mathematics Department
would like to point out that there
are two first year courses, In-
stead of the standard ‘‘Calculus,
with Analytic Geometry’’, the non-
math Major might like totake ‘*Al-
gebra and Probability Models’’,
where the emphasis is on princl-

ples and fundamental concepts of

mathematics,

spoke under the Bushbeck Mem-
orial Fund,

' He began his illustrated lecture
with a tomb by Bernini in St.
Peter’s and referred to Bernini’s
changes in emotion and icono-
graphy. The customary virtues
are present, but the personage of
Death is absent. Rather, there is
a skeleton, a winged feminine fi-
gure, holding a book in which is
inscribed the Pope’s name, for
Death keeps a record of his vic-
tims. The basic meaning of the
tomb, however, is that ‘‘only in
death does it become known what
we are,’”’

The commemorative function of
winged death is expressed in
funerary monuments, In the Tomb
of Alexander VII, death and time
are fused: death becomes the vin-
dicator of time. Here’ the
sarcophagus is partially con-
cealed, and more personifications
are added, They include theologi-
cal and moral virtues, but a fourth,
‘twho really doesn’t belong to the
club’’, is added -=- Truth, Truth
was never considered a virtue in
Christian theology, but is included
here to express the revelation of
truth by time.

The act which has terminated the
Pope’s life will bring out his true
essence, Death immortalizes his
victims,

Panofsky stressed the dual em-
phasis upon the saving of the soul
and the immortality of the name.
Death is the ultimate test ofa good
name,

St. Ambrose expressed this idea
in the passage which contained the
title of the lecture. He continued:
“How can we praise a man before
he has reached the harbor?’’ He
described death as the fulfillment
of our service, as a power which

shapes our lives.
The same idea is present in

Michelangelo’s tomb to the Magni-
fici in the Medici Palace, as well
as in an engraving by Veneziano,
In the engraving, one can see a
debate between death andthe devil,
ie., the forces of good as opposed to
the devil, in which death success-
fully refutes the devil’s claims.

Panofsky concluded with a theory
relating this engraving to the de-
sire for sanctification of the Ital-
ian prophet Savanorola after his
death, the jawless skeleton in the
engraving representing Savano-
rola,

eva Agreement of 1954, It cannot be
denied that there are masses of
foreign troops in Vietnam---U,S,
troops; that these were introduced
only on the invitation of a U.S,
puppet dictator--Diem; that the
free elections scheduled for 1956
never took place under Diem; that
the repressive nature of the total-
itarian Diem regime recruited
strong anti-American feelings still
evident in South Vietnam,

It cannot be denied the U.S, has
employed chemical warfare inthis
war, chemicals banned at the
Hague, chemicals lethal to children
and animals, ‘Strategic hamlets,’’
although unsuccessful as a military
strategy, continue to be the mecha-
nism of forced relocation of indig-
inous South Vietnamese,

The movie stirred up some vig-
orous dissent and instructive re-
buttal, Russ Stetler displayed ad-
mirable composure in the face of
antagonistic baiting by some of the
audience and was prepared to an-

} swer legitimate questions ina dig-

nified and factual manner, He re-
viewed the fate of Malcolm Brown,
the AP reporter whose reports of

, the resistance by the National Lib-

eration Front were suppressed
during the four years in which the
U.S. denied the existence of the
people’s resistance group, This
group is now defamed with the
title ‘*Viet Cong,’’ a U.S, inven-

tion to abbreviate Vietnamese
Communist,

The _ practical considerations
alone point to the necessity of
withdrawal of our troops before
Vietnam becomes another Korea
or a confrontation as dangerous as
Cuba, The unavoidable fact is that
WE ARE LOSING THE WAR IN
VIETNAM and nothing short of an
all-out attack on North Vietnam,
possible including tactical atomic
weapons, will gain this military
objective. The moral issue seems
clear cut to this observer, It’s
certainly about time the perspec-
tive of the resistance group was
no longer suppressed in U,S, news
reporting.

Five BMC Juniors
Given Ford Grants
For Summer Work

Five grants from the Ford Foun-
dation will enable Kathryn Terzian
Joan Deutses, Johanna Frodin,
Michele Greene, and Nancy Sours
to start hover’s workthis summer.

Chosen by a committee of faculty
from the Social Science and His-
tory departments, the five girls
will work in four departments.

Kathryn Terzian, economics
major, will spend the summer in
Europe, investigating the Common
Market, Joan Deutsch, history
major, will do research in Chicago
on the Immunity Act of 1954.

Johanna Fordin, economics
major, will go to Columbia to
start her project. Michele Greene
anthropology major, will travel
to the Southwest to study Indians;
and Nancy Sours, political sci-
ence major, will use her grant
to study civil rights issues in
the South.

The stipend allows the student
to devote full time to research
and to lighten the amount of work
during her senior year. The inter-
ested junior also has the oppor-
tunity for independent work under
a faculty advisor. This is the fifth
summer that the Ford Foundation
has given the money to the Col-
lege.

The faculty committee selects
the students on the basis of her
project and the methods and mat-
erials she plans to use. A student
from any department who has the
desire to work on a project re-
lating to public affairs is
eligible.

Year’s Final Chamber Concert
Shows Only Spotty Excellence

By Nancy Milner, '65

The final performance of the
season in the series of chamber
music concerts presented by the
Student Ensemble Group under the
direction of Mme Agi Jambor was
given Sunday afternoon. The event
was well-attended, and it isunfor-
tunate that the performance as a
whole did not live up to the expec-
tations aroused by the last recital
of this genre, There were, how-
ever, some very exciting moments,

Barbara Dancis and Mme Jam-
bor played superbly the first move-
ment of the Brahms SONATA #2
IN A MAJOR for violin and piano.
The performance was a spontan-
eous recreation of the romantic
expressiveness of the music. The
rapport established between the
two artists permitted the full in-
terpretation of the lyrical Allegro
amabile. The effect was rather
moving.

The concert opened with Mo-
zart’s SONATA IN C MAJOR, For
this piece, Emily Singer joined
Miss Dancis in a technically pol-
ished rendering. I especially en-
joyed the Andante sostenuto in
which the performers brought out
the richness of the melodic line,
The Allegro movements were
slightly heavy in legato sections,
but these were balanced by an
understanding of the contrasting
lightness and depth of Mozart’s
music,

The Schubert QUARTET IN A
MINOR was rehearsed solely under
the direction of Barbara Dancis,
who deserves great praise for her
dramatic interpretation of the
work, It is indeed unfortunate that
the group was out of tune through
so much of the piece, for the dis-
cordant sections broke the spell

Interfaith Presents
Morality Lecture

Millicent Carey McIntosh will
speak on Wednesday, May 6, in
Interfaith’s final lecture of the
year.

Mrs. McIntosh, a Bryn Mawr
alumna and mother of two sons, is
President Emeritus of Barnard
College, Vice-President of the
Bryn Mawr College Board of Trus-
tees, and amember of the college’s
Board of Directors,

Her subject is ‘*Has the Young-
er Generation a New Morality?’’

As a member of the board which
is responsible for approving the
new Self-Gov, legislation concern-
ing such rules as meninthedorms
and two o’clock permissions, Mrs,
McIntosh’s comments on the sub-
ject should be of special interest
to the undergraduate members of
the college.

created by the movements of har-
monious perfection.
A LARGHETTOFOR BASS CLA=

RINET AND PIANO by Anton Dvo--

rak was the most recently com-
posed piece on the program. Bar-
bara Rohrmayer brought a deep
resonance from her instrument,
but she never lost sight of the line
of the music. Interest was main-
tained through the intensification of
long, held notes on the clarinet,
while Emily Singer balanced this
sonority with contrasting intrica-
cies on the piano.

The program closed with a per-
formance of the CONCERTO IN D
MINOR FOR TWO VIOLINS AND
PIANO by J. S. Bach. Marcia
Fullard used a viola bow, and to
this may be attributed, at least
partially, the excessive heaviness
which greatly distorted the effect
of the music. The contrapuntal
elements were lost in the quantity
of sound produced. Robin Kadison
played the other violin, and the
whole was accompanied by Mme
Jambor on the piano,

The concert was excellent in part
although it lacked the general co-
hesiveness of previous recitals,
Nevertheless, we look forward to
an exciting and interesting season
next year,

‘Memory’ Key to Staging and Direction
Of Williams’ Drama, ‘Glass Menagerie’



A FRAGILE MOMENT during a rehearsal of Tennesee Williams’ ‘‘The Glass Menagerie.’’ The

:



cast includes (left to right) Margaret Edwards as Amanda, Phil Hawkins as Tom, Lorena Gill as
Laura, and Yogi Herring as Jim. The play will be presented by the Bryn Mawr College Theatre
and the Haverford Drama Club at Roberts Hall, under the direction of Robert Butman.

On May 8th and 9th the Bryn
Mawr and Haverford Drama Clubs
will present a production of Ten-
nessee Williams’s “The Glass
Menagerie.”’ This play differs from
many of Williams’s other plays
in that its characters are not the
perverted people that one finds,
for example, in ‘‘Streetcar Named
Desire.’’ The cast is small; a
mother raised in the southern
tradition of gentility; her son,
restless to leave his family to seek
a new life; her daughter, who lives
in a world only partially based
on reality, and a young friend of
the son who works in the same
factory.

The most basic idea used both
in directing and in staging the play
is that the play is memory. Be-
cause it is memory, the set is
only semi-realistic. Also the
special effect of projecting slides
on the rear wall of the set helps
to isolate the play in time as a
memory, and not as present action.
In directing the play Robert But-
man has stressed the poetry in-
herent in the actors’ lines, poetry
arising from what Wordsworth has
called ‘‘emotion recollected in
tranquillity.’’ The play is tragic,
but tragic in a different way from

St. George and Phoenix Arise;
Reborn in BMC May Day Plays

The annual May Day play andthe
traditional ‘‘Dragon Play’ will
provide dramatic entertainment
today, with the Library as a suit-
ably Mediaeval backdrop.

Christopher Fry’s ‘A Phoenix
Too Frequent’? heralds in some
changes in May Day play custom,
It is a modern drama with only
three characters, in contrast to
the usual Renaissance or Medi-
aeval play involving a large num-
ber of girls. ‘‘Theater in the

will be produced in the Cloisters
this year, Vicki May is director,
the role of Dynamene will be played
by Wendy Wassyng, Tebus-Chro-
mis by Peter Moscovitz, and Doto
by Nimet Habachy.

The Dragon Play is traditionally
produced by the juniors in Pem
East, and takes place on the Li-
brary steps, Though a new play is
written every May Day, the basic
elements of St. George, the Dragon,

Atalanta’sLoss Offers Hope
For Seniors In Hoop Race

According to Bryn Mawr lore,
the lovely Senior maid who rolls
her hoop first down Senior Row
will be the first of her class to
marry.

Do these young hopefuls ever
wonder, however, if the whole
quaint custom might not be found-
ed on a huge myth? Has anyone
ever tried to verify whether or
not the fleet-footed damsels ever
even made the trip to the altar,
much less made it before anyone
else?

The records are ominously si-
lent on this score, This silence
is sufficient to plant a horrible
suspicion in the mind. Maybe the
winners of the hoop-rolling con-
tests never married at all but
remained athletic old maids to
the end of their days.

The assumption is that the win-
ner of the race is the most phy-
Sically prepared to withstand the
rigors of the manhunt, but in view
of the evidence--rather lack of



evidence-- the following proposal
is now thrown open for consider-
ation,

Seniors, break training rules,
smoke a cigarette, settle back and
reread the story about Atalanta
and the golden apples, Atalanta,
after all, was wedded because she
lost the race. So don’t set your
heart on rolling your hoop down
the row first. Perhaps you may be
another Atalanta,

Arrests and Injuries in Chester
After NAACP, CFFN Intervention

In the latest series of civil
rights demonstrations in Chester,
between 30 and 40 persons have
been injured, including several
police officers, and about 250 have
been arrested.

The trouble started last Wednes-
day after negotiations between the
school board and the NAACP and
Committee for Freedom Now fail-
ed to bring any agreement about
de facto segregation in the schools.

About 50 persons held a sit-in
at the school board offices and in
Negro schools. They were arrest-
ed without incident, but the school
board called the demonstration
‘tviolent?? and kept the schools
closed for almost a week.

Protest marches have been held
in the Chester business district
almost nightly for a month, but on
Wednesday, the demonstrators
held their orderly but noisy protest
outside the home of political boss

a few demonstrators resisted ar-

cluding women and children, were
beaten seemingly without provoca-

Among those injured was a re-
porter from the Philadelphia Bul-
letin. When he identified himself,
several officers attacked him,
broke his nose, and then arrested
him for ‘assaulting an officer.’’

On Friday night demonstrators
who intended to be arrested block-
ed an intersection in a Negro part

disperse and then attacked the
demonstrators swinging riot
sticks. Bricks were thrown at po-
lice, seemingly from rooftops, In
the skirmish, a large number of
demonstrators were injured by
police, including many who did not
resist arrest. When state police
arrived to scatter the crowd, one
group of Negroes sought refuge in
a tavern, but police followed them
in. A fight ensued. Police also

Sixty Intrepid Geologists Embarked
On Full-Guided Sedimental Journey

Watson, Dryden, and Regnier
Tours, (very) Ltd. last weekend
conducted over’ sixty rowdy
Geology 101 students on the annual
tour of scenic upstate Penn-
sylvania.

The sleepy army--for army they
looked, clad in varied bivouac
shirts and dungarees and each
carrying a regulation U.S, Army
field bag--assembled at Pembroke
Arch, As has happened in past
years, no one slept late; cont-
rariwise, due to the excited anti-
cipation, most had awakened early,
The Air Conditioned Red Arrow
Motor Coach (bus), driven by Joe,
the best sport of all, left almost
at the scheduled 8:15 for three
days of healthful formation ob-
serving and rock whacking.

On the way to the first stop,
Watson and Dryden, encouraged
by the bus speaker system and
captive audience for their witty
repartee, uncovered a lode of local

black-sheep son and the Doyles-

H’ford’s May Day Role:

Inspired, But Innocuous

By now we know what gay prank
the Haverfairies thought up and
impishly executed--or attempted
--last night. It was suggested they
spirit back the pole they carried
off last year and dance with the
rest of us in the dawn, dressed,
perhaps, in white shorts and black
and red sashes.

Last year’s pole-snatching was
well-planned and clever. To recap
for the uninformed, some boys set
off decoy firecrackers on one sec-
tion of the campus, others crept
through the cold drizzle and extri-
cated the maypole from the pro-
tecting grasp of Mr. Miz ET ALe

In former years, attempts to
carry off maypoles have invariab-
ly failed, generally ending in an
early-hour fracas between Haver-
fordians and lantern men. One
year, pole-snatching was not even
attempted. For their traditional
May Eve activity, the boys merely
*texplicated’’ the poles by placing
two large white stones at the base
of each,

Another year, their sole parti-

cipation in the festivities was the
floating of a banner from Taylor
tower which proclaimed, in ornate
Gothic lettering, ‘‘How Quaint,’
Some year Haverford may do
something really unusual that would
shock the whole campus--leave the
maypoles alone and let Bryn Mawr
hold its rites in peace.
(Ed. note: As of Tuesday morning
four maypoles were found to be
missing from Radnor basement,
where they had been kept. Two of
the poles were later found in the
creek behind Batten House. Since
this was premature of May Day it
is unlikely that Haverford had any
part in the abduction, If the other
two poles are not found, May Day
will proceed with only three poles.)

shatterea material, tossing the
non-fossiliferous fragments on
another fossil-hunter below, and
exclaiming, ‘‘Oh, (snicker), I’m
sorry!”?

Most of the trilobites--the fos-
sils most easily recognized and
therefore most sought after---
seemed to have been either found
last year or so deeply entrenched
in the rock as to be uncollectable.

High point of the trip was the
visit to the Greenhill (a misnomer
to be sure) Stripping Corporation,
the largest open-pit coal mine
in the United States, and aside
from the Panama Canal, the fore-
most hole in the entire earth.

After getting a structure lesson
from the precipice, the class
climbed back in the bus for the
long, winding, suffocating, dusty
descent into the pit. Joe, the dri-
ver, displayed not only a great
deal of bravery and devotion to
the cause, by subjecting his bus
to the tréacherous road, but also
a vast knowledge of mining, since
his father was a manufacturer of
coal mining equipment.

The last stop Sunday was on a
road cut high above the Lehigh
Water Gap to observe a contact
in Blue Mountain between the
Shawangunk (say ‘‘shon-gun’’) and
the Martinsburg.

Once all were aboard, the bus
headed back to Bryn Maw as all
meditated upon the wonders en-
countered on the trip. Consensus
was that the fun would have been
more so if the students were not
expected to learn something.

(Big Bear On Campus)
POOH, THAT'S WHO!

Literature’s most durable
bear is once again the talk
of college campuses coast
to coast. Last time it was
the Latin Winnie Ille Pu.
This time, the Pooh stories
become the vehicle for a
devastating parody of a
dozen different schools of
literary criticism. Here, par-
alleling the “freshman case-
book” approach to a literary
problem, are the 12 keys to
‘the hidden meaning” be-
hind Milne’s creations—
Pooh, Piglet, Kanga, Owl,
et al. Every vagary of con-
temporary criticism —
Freudian, Marxian, the New
Critical—is taken off in this
riotous collection. Join the
Pooh bandwagon and find
out why “If there were a
Pulitzer Prize for Humor, it
would go this year to author
Crews."—Boston Herald
