Eudora Wel ty

Visiting Writer Eudora Welty
Declines Role Of ‘Advice Giver ’

Welty,
writer-in-residence whose visit
ends Friday, declined the role of

Miss Eudora guest

‘tadvice-giver’’ to prospective
writers. Interviewed Monday at the
Deanery, Miss Welty maintained
that ‘‘I shouldn’t be a teller.’’

She enjoys méeting students and
finds in such’ encounters the
‘‘mutual stimulus’? of discussion,
but insists that there her counsel-
ing must end. ‘‘Nobody gave me
advice,” she remarked. ‘Nobody
can advise a writer.’’

Recalling that she alwayswanted
to write, Miss Welty called her-
self ‘‘temperamentally suited’’ to
short stories rather than novels,
‘Some people,’? she explained,
‘tare suited to both, but I prefer
stories.’’

When at work, the author finds
that a story begins to prepare
itself before she starts to write
it. ‘All writing comes from inside,
from a feeling,’’ she said, ‘*Then
something in the outside world
sets you off, and you put the two
things together.’’

Asked by Mr. Leach to read one
of her stories to his writing class,
Miss Welty confessed that she was
pleasantly surprised to learn a
few years ago that her stories

could be read aloud successfully.

She had always considered
stories written rather than oral,
but the new discovery ‘‘gives me
pleasure.’’ Although she enjoys
reading aloud, Miss Welty feels
that ‘‘ail stories belong to be
read to yourself, quietly, silently.’’

As part of her trip, the author
has also delivered lectures at
colleges in a busy schedule that
she terms ‘‘unusual’’ for her.
Before coming to Bryn Mawr, she

Mrs. Wheeler
Dies March 26

Mrs, Arthur L. Wheeler, profes-
sor emeritus of mathematics at
Bryn Mawr, died Saturday, March
26, in the Bryn Mawr Hospital.
There will be a memorial service
April 16 at 4:00 p.m. in the Music
Room in Goodhart, to which both
students and faculty are welcome.

Mrs. Wheeler was 83, and was
the widow of a professor of Latin
at Bryn Mawr who died in 1932.
A faculty member herself for 30
years, she retired in 1948, She
was head of the mathematics de-
partment at her retirement,

She received her Bachelor of
Arts degree from the University of
South Dakota in 1903, her Master
of Arts degree from Radcliffe Col-
lege in 1905, and a doctor of phil-
osophy degree from the University
of Chicago.in 1910...

She also had honorary degrees
from the New Jersey College for
Women, now Douglass College at
Rutgers University, and from
Mount Holyoke College.

spoke at Wellesley andthe Univer-

sity of North Carolina. On her .

way home to Mississippi, Miss
Welty will stop.at Agnes Scott
College and the University of
Alabama.

She describes the topic of her
talks as the problems in writing
that she has worked out to her
satisfaction.

A Donnelley Fellow at the.college
in 1958, Miss Welty is pleased
by the chance to re-visit friends
at Bryn Mawr, speakwith students,
and read samples of their writing.

A reluctant advice-giver but an
eager and interested visitor, Miss
Welty seems as happy about her
stay as are her hosts.

Orchestra Concert Will Featur
Haydn, Hindemith, Copland Music

The Bryn Mawr-Haverford
Orchestra, under the direction of
Robert K. Goss, will present a
concert of works ranging from late
Baroque to very recent music
Saturday, April 9, at 8:30 p.m.
in Roberts Hall at Haverford. Ad-
mission is free.

Leading the program is Josef
Haydn’s Symphony No. 101 in D
major, better known as ‘The
Clock’? Symphcny, especially from
the ‘‘tick-tock’’ motif developed in
the second »ymevement, It is one
of the cataal of Haydn’s symphon-
ies, which has retained the great
popularity it achieved immediately
following its premiere in England
in 1794,

The program then moves back
to the early eighteenth-century
Italian composer of mainly small
ensemble pieces, Benedetto Mar-
cello. The Orchestra will perform
his Concerto inC minor for Oboe
and Strings, with Ed Hazzard, Hav-

Revision Of Committees

Discussed at

Since .most Hall Reps had not
been elected by the time of Mon-
day’s Undergrad meeting the only
people present were the officers,
the presidents of the Big Six,
the Class Presidents, and visitors,

The main business of the meeting
was the discussion of various com-
mittees associated with Under-
grad. Discussion centered around
their functions, the possibilities
of combined committees, and the
elimination of. committees whocc
purposes are no longer c'sar. The

committees discussed were;
Student Exchange Comuittee,
Finance, Library Coursti, Record

Library, Inn Committee, Travel
Bureau, Furniture Sale, and
Vocation Committee. The pos-
sible formation of a Bi-College
Committee was also considered,

The new president of Undergrad,
Margaret Edwards, explained the
purpose of each committee, and
suggestions were made for pos-.
sible changes,

It was deciced that the Library
Council will remain separate from
the Art Librarian and the Record
Librarian as in the past. The
Library Council (one person) is
in charge of organizing library
tours and the library exam, and
receives no pay, It was also decided
that the Travel Bureau, also one
person, will remain the same, and
that the holder of this paid job be
a scholarship student,

The Vocational Committee will
be abandoned since it has not
functioned in the past few years.
Many of its former functions have
fallen under the Curriculum Com-
mittee. An appeal was made for
greater status. for the Inn Com-
mittee, and a suggestion was made
for the revision of the Furniture
Sale. In the past the organizers of
the sale received a set amount of
the profits, and it has been sug-
gested that this change to
a percentage of the. profits in
the event that a great quantity is
not sold. Discussion of this point
was not final,

The possible formation of a
Bi-College Committee to work
closely with Haverford was dis-

Undergrad

cussed, Membership could con-
sist of the Big Six representatives
from both campuses, those working
on campus events, or simply
volunteers. Someone to organize
the Meal Exchange is urgently
needed,

Three modern pieces have been
chosen to complete the concert,

missioned in 1932 to write enough
music for an all-day music festi-
val in Plon, Austria. This particu-
lar bass ensemble, described by.
Bryn Mawr Orchestra president
Barbara Hurwitz as ‘a good-
morning piece’’--she calls it very
suitable for May Day,

opening of the day’s music.

Aaron Copland’s ‘Outdoor

under somewhat specialized cir-
cumstances, as it was written

1966 Commencement Speaker
Is Pres. Goheen of Princeton

Robert Goheen,. President of
Princeton University and father of
Trudie Goheen, ’66 has been named
this year’s commencement speak-
er.

Born in India, Mr. Goheen was
the son of medical missionaries.
At 15 he came to the United States
for good,

After attending Lawrenceville,
he graduated from Princeton with
a classics major. Following his
army service during World War
Il, Mr. Goheen was one of the first
four students to receive Woodrow
Wilson Fellowships.

Mr. Goheen joined the Classics
Department at Princeton, where
he held the post of assistant pro-

fessor when he was named to the :

presidency, He was 37 when
selected for the office,

In addition - to -his Princeton

duties, Mr, Goheen works for the
Ford and Carnegie Foundations.
on educational matters. He has
traveled extensively in the Far
East for these foundations.

Mr. Goheen’s primary interests
at Princeton include expansion of
facilities, finding quality faculty
members, and raising salaries
while keeping classes fairly small.
He was named by Time Magazine
as one of the outstanding college
presidents of America in a list
that included Miss McBride.

The administrative. and fund-
raising responsibilities of the
office of President have reduced
Mr. Goheen’s direct contact with
students, and he misses both teach-
ing and closer ties with the student
body.

Described as a natural athlete,
Mr. Goheen spends part of his
free time playing such sports as
soccer, tennis, squash, and golf,

Commencement exercises will
be held on Erdman Green for the
first time this year, abandoning
the traditional site on Merion
Green. Joseph Varimbi, associate .
professor of chemistry, is the new
faculty marshall for graduation.

An Experiment

This is an experimental editorial, designed to probe rather than to
diagnose or criticize. We gave discussed our own opinions of the campus
atmosphere and educatioral philosophy of Bryn Mawr, but we cannot
determine their representative nature, What follows is an exploration
of a subjective matter, We invite responses from faculty and students
in the hope of expanding these feelers to an evaluation reflecting the
sentiments of the college community.

?

A college education must come to terms with the realities as well
as the abstractions of academics. The ivory tower myth, which seems
to imply a hazy freedom from any external demands, is piercttf by the
inevitable entrance of exams, papers and deadlines.

The response of Bryn Mawr to the mechanics of education is a
‘flexible one. Take-home exams are widely used as mid-semesters;
paper dates are often molded to student convenience and crisis; many
professors are willing to collaborate on the selection of exam and paper
due dates, The college requirement of mid-semester grades is treated
by professors with varying degrees of concern; some lament the neces-
sity for any arbitrary grading system.

The elimination of restrictions, idyllic as it sounds, must be a
gradual process, tested at every step, The paring down of the social
honor system to a core of fundamental rules illustrates the success of
the trial by fire. If a core of academic rules is similarly an eventual
necessity, how can this core be discovered?

We suggest that each apparent restraint must be carefully examined
before its overthrow is advocated, Two major reforms -- self-scheduled
exams and the system of pass~-fail grades in all but major courses --
have been introduced on other campuses. Do such measures touch Bryn
Mawr as distant goals or near horizons? Do they clash with our basic
principles of education?

Atmosphere and philosophy and principle are terms only as concrete
as their functioning definitions, Their definitions at Bryn Mawr must
‘be provided by all the participants in our academia,

Mix Or Match

At last an end to the Bryn Mawrter’s typical complaint that ‘‘Haver-
ford boys just aren’t my type’’ is in sight. Whether her preference be
pin-striped, madras, fatigue, or T-shirts, the particular Bryn Mawr

girl will have every chance to find it at Haverford. A recently proposed

computer-matching project, organized similarly to but more efficiently
than the national ‘‘Operation Match,’ will pair compatible Bryn Mawr
and Haverford students,

With so many Bryn Mawrter’s spending dateless nights or weekends
away when Haverford is so close, the worth of the long-overdue program
is obvious, The solution cannot be found in either library, in classes,
or, with all due respect to the meal-exchange, in dining halls. And once
the initial excitement over mixers has worn off as a freshman, the tired
and discouraged upperclassmen shun such ordeals. Besides, at a mixer
Haverford is often out-numbered by other men’s colleges.

A plan aimed directly at increasing the number of Bryn Mawr-
Haverford dates is exactly what is needed. With only a 50 cent or less
fee for the processing of a questionnaire, supporting the project is
well worth at least one try. The Pennsylvania Railroad may be a little

. less crowded on Friday afternoons, but Harry loves a full bus,

Togetherness

Upon paging through our copy for this week’s NEWS, we were par-
ticularly struck by activities in the arts; the Bryn Mawr-Haverford
Orchestra concert, the Bryn Mawr-Haverford theater operations, and
the Bryn Mawr-Haverford dance group. And we were particularly happy
to observe the total aspect of bi-college coordination in these creative
endeavors.

Such cooperation has advantages for each school in providing a co-
educational sort of atmosphere even though two individual institutions
exist. It is needless to point out that this bi-college coordination extends
_ well beyond the range of arts activities. seid

It is hoped that Haverford and Bryn Mawr will continue this trend in
the best of two possible worlds. We must cultivate our

Whichever the old adage says, you
starve at the Bryn Mawr Infirmary.

you can look forward to living on

vision is made for those of us on
the ‘*bland’’ diet.

I can’t completely condemn the
Infirmary staff, because I over-
heard one of the nurses complain-
ing about the quantity of food
received. For example it is shock-
ing when you order milk with dinner
to receive half a glass,

It?s a sorry state of affairs
when you look forward to your

you consider that most of us get

must admit lack of sleep) it is
disgusting that even in the In-

Haverford production of UNDER
MILK WOOD What began as apre-
view of the play, however,
unfortunately turned into that cur-
rent bane of Broadway, the re-
hearsal review. Even with pro- :
fessional theatre, this is a dubious
practice, but it is especially un-
fair in this case. .

Anyone who has worked on school
productions knows their almost
unfailing tendency to remain in
a state of hopeless confusion until
the last minute and then suddenly
cohere into a polished whole on
performance nights. Because of
this, it hardly. seems pertinent to
criticize a rehearsal, however
close to performance time, and
especially in the mournful tones
your reporter adopted in the final
paragraphs of her article,

Although UNDER MILK WOOD
had a good box office both nights
of performance, your *‘preview,’’
appearing as it did Thursday night,
may easily have warned many
people away and certainly did little
for cast morale.

Finally, a production can only
be judged on its actual, not its
potential, merits, and even the
most seasoned critic cannot know
in advance what these will be.
A preview is a study of technique,
and is therefore a straight news
article. Personal evaluation be-
longs with the reviewer; before
that, it is merely poor journalism.

Wesleyan Group
Has 8-Day Fast
On Orange Juice

The following story reached
‘THE COLLEGE NEWS from
the Collegiate Press Ser-
vices iBryn Mawr and Haver-
ford seem to have set a style
for expressing protest over |
Vietnam, although the article
gives. no_ indication that
someone other than Wesleyan
may have done it. == Ed. :

An eight-day fast protesting U.S.
action in Vietnam recently ended
for New England college students.
At Wesleyan University in Mfddle-
town, Connecticut, about 40 stu-
dents drank coffee and orange juice
during the fast to keep up their
strength for the eight days.

“This sort of protest doesn’t
alienate people who would be
angered by unshaven beatniks
carrying signs,’’ one of the fasters
told reporters.

“This is a demonstration of
personal commitment which is
neither fun nor easy,’ said
another, Bryn Hammarstrom, a
freshman who helped organize the
fast at Wesleyan.

The fasters, meeting only at
mealtime to drink orange juice
and discuss the war, generally
agreed the protest was a success,
In a statement of purpose, the
Wesleyan students opposed es-
calation of the war and called
for peace negotiations including
the National Liberation Front.

*‘‘We see a trend in our country
that frightens us,’’ the statement
read, ‘‘a nation that America must
‘determine the course of the world,
no matter what that means, no
matter what the end.

At Amherst College, about 70
students abstained from meals.
Many of them even refused orange
juice and vitamin pills. About 10
continued for the full eight days.

Several students from the Univ-
ersity of Massachusetts, Trinity

College, the Hartford College for

Women, . the University of Hartford,
and the University of Connecticut

were also fasting.

their trip had been worthwhile,
although they noted that many of

other students,

One of the firgt things the girls
admired was the*wide flexibility in
scheduling which is permitted by
the summer term, Those students
who have heavy campus respon-

1966 Symposium
Examines Myths

John Kenneth Galbraith will be
giving the keynote address at the
1966 Carolina Symposium at the
University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill, April 17-21, The
symposium which involves lec-
tures and discussions with guests
and students, will explore the prob-
lem of myth in politics, history,
religion, social mores, expecially
in relation to American society
and modern man in general.

Kit Bakke will be attending from
Bryn Mawr. Among the speakers
she will have the opportunity to
hear and hopefully talk to are
Galbraith, Daniel Boorstin, Walter
Kaufmann, Nelson Algren, Al Capp,
Tom Wolfe, C. Vann Woodward,
Ralph Ellison, Dean Alan Richard-
son and Morris K. Udall.

An . examination of myth and



mythology in society is necessary

‘to attain any measure of intel-
lectual awareness’’ about the way
a particular society operates. Myth
is a powerful force, because of its
simplicity and the justification it
lends to a society’s pattern of
existence, and it is instrumental in
perpetuating that pattern and also
in shaping the thoughts and values
of individuals in that society.
These are briefly the reasons
given -by William W. -Tomford,

a ‘Chairman. of - the - 1966 “Inter-

‘Seminar, “for conducting
this year’s Symposium as an ex-

amination of myth in its various

‘roles.





Marynelle Hall and Liz Freedman, two student exchanges
with the University of Michigan, discuss their éxperiences

at Wednesday night’s meeting.

those who are taking programs
which ordinarily require more than
four years can go faster without’
having to take on a crushing
academic load at any time,

At Michigan, if a student has a
high enough average and is *‘cul-
tured’? he is eligible for the
‘*honors’? dorm where there are

‘ more singles. The Bryn Mawr girls

were particularly enthusiastic
about this dorm; they found the
students ‘‘easier to talk to,’
*‘more interesting,’? and not at
all snobbish. Their attitude
towards academic work seemed to
be closer to that at Bryn Mawr.

Social rules are more liberal
at Michigan than at Bryn Mawr:
there are no dress rules, sign
outs are simpler and_ the
attitude towards them is more
casual, juniors and seniors have
no curfews. According tothe girls,
the system appears to function
smoothly,

Student government at Michigan
seems to. run into many of the
same snags as it doeshere, apathy
in particular; 15% of the student
body votes in elections. Never-
theless, Michigan students seem to
*¢talk more’’ and mingle more
freely than Bryn Mawr girls, and
of course there is a great deal
more going on on campus. On
a typical Thursday night, for
example, there was a concert, a
movie, and six lectures. _

As at Bryn Mawr, courses
seemed to vary over a wide range.
Big lecture courses are broken
down into sections for discussion
but these are often led by graduate
students and “that makes a dif-
ference,’’ On the other hand, some
girls felt that it was easier to
get to know the faculty and to
talk to them about non-academic
subjects. One girl described a
class at a teacher’s house and
noted that after the class, a number

Speaker In Favor
Of Revising Creed
Of Presbyterianism

Edward A. Dowey, Jr., Th. D.,
a visiting lecturer in history, will
deliver an Interfaith lecture next
Thursday on ‘‘Revising the Creed
for Contemporary Man.’’

The lecture will take place at
5:00 p.m. in the Common Room.

Mr. Dowey was the leader of a
recent Presbyterian movement to

change the basis of the West- .

minster creed. His proposal is
known as the ‘‘Confession of
1967’?--and has been called almost
as revolutionary as some of the
constitutional renewals of Vatican
Il.

His talk Thur will concern
the necessity for such a change
and its progress so far.

Mre. Dowey currently teaches a
” graduate seminar on the Reforma-
tion. He is regularly on the faculty
of the Princeton Theological

Seminary.

of students remained for over an
hour, had coffee and chatted with
the professor.

The exchange students were par-
ticularly enthusiastic about the
University of Michigan Daily. The
first three pages contain general,
news (they have an Associated
Press machine) as well as im-
portant campus events, so that one
can easily keep up with important
news on and off campus without
having to wade through the less
relevant local news inacity paper.

In general, the girls had a chance
to consider what is necessary for
an optimum relationship between
student and campus, student and
dorm, student and professor. The
trip illustrated too the values of
a small school which Bryn Mawr
should take advantage of and the
disadvantages it can try to com-
pensate for.

The exchange students are
looking forward eagerly to the
return visit of the Michigan stu-
dents the first week in'May.

‘Little Theatre ’ Is Organized,
Expects To Produce Comedies

The past week has been one of
intense activity in the area of
campus dramatics. For one thing,
it has seen the formation of
**Little Theatre,’’ a completely
student-run, student - directed
organization.

: £ Little Theatre is the culmination ~

of at least t ears of dis-
cussion on the’desirability of such
a group. The principal argument.

for its existence, according to Pam
Barald and Lessie Klein (who are
serving as something of production
managers), is the fact of College
Theatre’s producing no comedies.
For a good number of actors and
actresses whose chief talent lies
in comedy, therefore, the only
opportunity for its exercise must
of necessity be in student pro-
ductions. In addition, there area
number of technical people who
would prefer devoting their
energies to comedies because of
the fun of the work.

Mr. Silvera Wins
Fulbright Award

Mr. Alan Silvera of the History
Department has received a Ful-
bright, or a grant under the State
Department’s international educa-
tional and cultural exchange pro-
gram, for the year 1966-67.

His grant is in the form of a
lectureship, He will be teaching
history in France at the University
of Lille,

The program permits foreign
and United States citizens to study,
lecture, and conduct research in
different countries, Its aim is to
promote mutual understanding be-
tween nations and to allow a shar-

resources of the world.

Bequest Committee Cites

Two Needs For Funds

The Alumnae Bequest Com-
mittee met in the Common Room
Tuesday to resume its function
after being held in abeyance tem-
porarily during the Ford program
in. 1962-65, when the emphasis was
on cash in immediate gifts.

The Bequest Committee orig-
inated in 1954 and in ten years,
just under six million dollars has
come to the college through
bequests. Since July 1, 1965
bequests in the amount of
$1,380,000 have been reported.

In 1955 the Bequest Committee
was first organized under a class
program, with the class of 1925,
Miss McBride’s class, being the
pioneer. After that, each class at
the time of its 30th reunion sends
letters asking for bequests.

In 1956 Miss Marion Park,
former president of Bryn Mawr,
and Mrs. Talbot Aldrich, ’05,
member of the Board of Directors
and the Central Bequest Com-
mittee, wrote letters concerning
bequests to members of the first
20 graduating classes.

Between 1956-1961 all the re-
maining classes through 1933 set
up class bequest committees.

Margaret Tyler Paul, ’22, was
appointed chairman of the Bequest
Committee in July and presided at
Tuesday’s meeting, to which all
classes through 1934 were invited,
with only four unrepresented.

Miss McBride spoke at the
meeting, and emphasized two
particular financial needs of the
college: in the areas of special
bequests and unrestricted be-

_quests, She pointed out what bene-

fits. special bequests have.done for
departments, citing especially the
Riegel Bequest for Archaeology
and the recent Ida H. Ogilvie
Bequest for Geology.

Included in the $1,380,000 re-
ported since July 1, 1965 are three
major bequests. Katrina Ely Tif-
fany, °97, through her estate de-
signated $100,000 for the Alumnae
Association, Ruth Tuttle, °15, ina
bequest of $300,000 provided a
Salary and Pension Fund for the
Bryn Mawr faculty. Leslie Clark,
704, left the college her house
in Georgetown and a residuary
gift estimated at $700,000, the
major part of which will be used
to establish the Leslie Clark Pro-
fessorship in the Humanities,

Kay Ford Chosen
By Glamour Staff

For August Issue

Kay Ford, BMC’s entry in
Glamour magazine’s annual con-
test, has been named one of 14
honorable mention winners chosen
from. among 346 entrants in the
best- dressed college girl com-
petition.

The judging was done by a panel
of Glamour editors on the basis
of three full-length photos of each
girl, showing her in ‘‘typical cam-
pus’’ attire, a cocktail dress, and
off-campus day-time wear, anda
questionnaire dealing with such
things as the candidate’s off-
campus interests. In Kay’s case,
these latter include harness
horses, riding, and fox hunting.

From 25 semi-finalists the top
ten were selected. Each of these
will receive a personal gift from
the editors of Glamour and an
expense-paid trip to New York.

‘All 25--the top ten and those
with honorable mention will have
their pictures in the August issue
of Glamour and all will receive a
certificate from the magazine.

Pam expresses the conviction
that there is a considerable amount
of dramatic talent on the Bryn
Mawr and Haverford campuses
remaining untapped by the College
Theatre productions. She hopes
to see Little Theatre expand over
the next year to become a true
complement to College Theatre.

Little Theatre has just received
royalty confirmation for its first
production, ‘‘The Man Who Came
to Dinner,’’ to be given Thursday,
May 12, in Skinner Workshop. One
of the main reasons for the
selection of this play was its
large cast, particularly suitable
in view of the fact that College
Theatre’s spring production has a
cast of only five persons. They
are planning a simple set, but it
is anticipated that, by the time
of the production, Skinner will be
somewhat refurbished. The work-
shop is to be painted next week,
and wiring is to be installed for
a new circuit for lights. Try-outs
for **The Man Who Came to Din-
ner’’ will be held within the next—
week.

While it was originally
announced that the Little Theatre
production would be ‘‘Auntie

Mame,’’ they were unable to go
through with it because of a con-
current Broadway musical pro-
duction entitled ‘*‘Mame,”’’

Despite all this branch activity,
the primary organization of Col-
lege ‘Theatre has been busy too.
New officers have been elected;
they are: President--Nimet Ha-
bachy, *67; Vice-President--Judy
Chapman, ’67; Production Man-
ager--Janet Ohle, ’67; Publicity
Manager--Betsy Kreeger, ’68;
Treasurer--Ann Stehney, ’68,

In addition, the cast has been
selected for the spring production
of Eugene O’Neill’s **Long Day’s
Journey Into Night.’’ They are:
Steve Bennett, Margaret Edwards,
Munson Hicks, Chuck Strang, and
Jane Taylor.

Strindberg’ 3 The Stronger Te



Main Performance of Miss Julie

by Roberta Smith, “68

August Strindberg’s ‘The
Stronger,’’ presented as:a curtain
opener to the Southwark Company’s
presentation of his ‘‘Miss Julie’’
at the’ Theatre of the Living Arts
in Philadelphia, proved to be in
fact a far stronger production than
the main performance.

“The Stronger” is a strange
power struggle between two
actresses, one married and one
unmarried--for while one carries
on arunning attempt at conversa-
tion, the other remains silent
throughout the play. The decision
of which is the stronger is left
to the viewer, and would seem to
depend largely upon the acting
and characterization of the play.

Arnette Jens, as. the silent
actress, seems like a snake hyp-
notising her prey--and succeeds
Almost in hypnotising the audience
as well, drawing the eye of the
viewer to hef expression and
movement, She betrays herself by



this very activity, however, for
once her prey has discovered a
weak spot, her silence becomes
helpless and almost pitiable.

The other actress (Flora Elkins)
is quick to seize her advantage,
and in my opinion emerges as the
stronger--but the play is well
worth seeing to judge for yourself.

**Miss Julie’’ is‘a difficult pro-
duction, since it must be sustained
through a long Single dct. The
subtleties of characterization
which make such sustained presen-
tation possible seem to have escap-
ed the Southwark company.

The tension and tedium of an
all-night stand should be heighten-
ed by. the lack of breaks in the
play, but in this performance the
only quality which comes across
is boredom.

The acting is spotty, although
often good; the fault lies rather
in the characterization; Jean, play-
ed by Anthony Zerbe, the valet
who consorts with his mistress,

displays none of the pride of his
own class which so heightens the
contrast of his servility; he is
merely course.
Miss Julie (Lois Smith) is vague
-and rather detached, her lines are
often flat and, most amazing of
all, she survives a shodisch, se-
duction, and goes off quietly to
suicide with never a hair of her

neat coiffure disturbed.
All of the actors have moments

which are excellent; and ‘‘Miss
Julie’? remains a fascinating play.
Strindberg’s characters struggle
in a web from which they cannot
escape, the same strange vying
for power which is so evident
in ‘‘The Stronger’’ emerges more
subtly in **Miss Julie’’--it is un-
fortunate that the excellent per-
formance and presentation of the
curtain raiser could not be main-
tained in this play. :

by Emily McDermott, ‘68

There are few plays that a re-
viewer feels justified in recom-
mending without reservations,
Despite its title (one always feels
a little silly repeating it), ‘*Wait
a Minim?’ is sucha rarity. This
play, which came to Broadway from
South Africa via Rhodesia and Lon-
don, is not really a play and not
really a revue, It was dubbed a
**musical entertainment” by its
originator and director, Leon
Gluckman, Indeed, it is an arrest-
ing collection of folk music of all
nationalities, strung together with
first-rate comedy and satire.

There is no plot.to the play:
the comic scenes are almost en-
tirely independent of each other,
Taken together, the satires on
different national characters con-
vey a definitely internationalistic
message. But this message is
delivered so wittily and even non-
chalantly that it successfully avoids
the taint of. moralism. The tone
of the humor is set even in the
first song when, amidst the African
lyrics, one singer (impersonating
a native) is heard chanting: ‘*We
bring greetings to Sammy Davis,

Merion To Sponsor Egg Roll
For Faculty Kids On Sunday

This Sunday afternoon, Merion
Green will be swarming with mil-
lions of little kids with sticky
hands clutching Easter eggs and
beady eyes searching for still hid-
den ones, It’s the annual Faculty
Childrens’ Easter Egg Roll given
by Merion Hall every Easter, It
involves ‘games and punch and
cookies and eggs and kids and
parents and fun and prizes, and
it has been happening for years
and years.

Last year, Harriet Leach was
the leader of the pack. This year,
in addition to the children and
their parents, say the Merion
social chairmen, members are
invited, whether or. not they have
children that can.come:

As last year, there will be two
fields of hidden eggs, one for
the bigger kids and one for the

South Africa’s ‘Wait a

Wins Recommendation

The cast of eight (five men and

three women) change nationalities '

by changing hats and/or costumes.
They sing and dance with unflag-
ging energy and a generally ir-
reverent attitude: the Germans
are caricatured as_ carefree,
goose-stepping guitar-players in
Lederhosen; the Frenchmanis torn
by conflicting love for a beautiful
girl and for his bicycle; a frustrated
tuba-player thumbs his nose at
the audience; and young love is
foiled by the noise of the Scots
guards,

There are a few scenes which
have no relevance whatsoever to
the rest of the play. One of the
best is called ‘‘Sir Oswald Sodde’’
and is set in a medieval castle.
In it, horses with web feet march
on and off the stage in a slapstick
scene worthy ofthe Marx Brothers,
and a medieval matron bemoans
the’ fact that her husband has gone
off to war and lost the key to her
chastity belt.

The satire and humor are sup-
plemented by scenes which con-
stitute the antithesis of comic
relief. These are quiet and simple
renditions of a number of folk
songs, among them ‘Dirty Old

little ones. This is so the big
kids won’t be grabbing up all the
obvious eggs before the little ones
can find any. There are prizes
for the gold and silver egg. Because
of the money involved, there may
be more candy eggs than real
ones, So that more can be hidden,
The kids (but maybe not their |
mothers) will probably like this
revision.

Because of kids like Harriet
Leach the Merion Easter Egg Roll
is undoubtedly more fun than the
White House Egg Roll. So if any
student is tired of studying around
three o’clock Sunday afternoon and
hasn’t been babysitting in a while
and misses her little brother or
sister, this is a wonderful
opportunity to socialize with the
younger set as well as try to

guess whose children they may

Town,” ‘I Gave my Love a
Cherry,’’ and ‘‘Johnny Soldier.’’

The cast itself is masterful.
Kendrew Lascelles and Michel
Martel are comic geniuses: Ken-
drew is a sad sort of clown with
a sneer that can be seen from the
back row of the balcony. Michel
is especially comical as the per-
secuted South African native. April
Olrich, who formerly danced with
the Royal Ballet, effectively paro-
dies national folk dances, Paul
Tracey, who could perhaps be
considered the predominant figure
in the cast, is notable for both his
musical and satirical skill.

The music, arranged and di-
rected by Andrew Tracey, is bril-
liant, It is executed by nearly
30-instruments, among them many
native African ones. The choreog-
raphy, by Frank Staff and Ken-
drew Lascelles, is equally exciting. ‘
In short, ‘‘Wait a Minim!’ is a
musical as well as a comic mas-
terpiece -- a rarity on Broadway,
and indeed anywhere,

Sophomores Receive Acceptances Bryn Mawr - Haverford Mixer

For Jr. Year Abroad Programs

The Deans’ Office lists 17 girls
-who have applied for junior year
abroad from this year’s sopho-
more class, Although this number
is considered an unusually large
one not all applicants have re-
ceived confirmation yet, so the
final number going is not settled.

Of those who are definitely go-
ing, five are studying in France,
two in Spain, two in Switzerland,
two in Germany, one in Italy, and
one in Israel. Tilda Tomaryn,
Jane Taylor and Polly Phinney are
all going to Paris under the Aca-
demy program, which is set up
in France for non-French students,
They will be taking French langu-
age and literature courses along
with history and art courses at
the Academy as well as at the
Sorbonne.. An extra with this pro-
gram, which includes only about
25 people, is conferences with
noted literary figures.

Barby Southack and Joan Bloom
are also going to France, but
with the Sweet Briar program.

Barby is a French major and Joan

an economics major. They will

He will speak on some aspect of ,

the history of photography.
Although his own interest is largely
in the photography of the twentieth
century, since there are several
Bryn Mawr students now working
on the early development of photo-
‘graphy, Mr. Bunnell may include
the nineteenth century in his dis-

Hopefully, the lecture will be
informal enough for students work-

Anticipates May Day Weekend

“This is a last ditch attempt,’
say Haverford Social Chairmen
Larry Tint andGreg Favis. *‘This’’
is the Merion Hall Mixer which,
by their efforts and those of Mary
Little, Bryn. Mawr’s.Social Chair-

man, has turned into a real Bryn
Mawr-Haverford Mixer with the

Monks and réfreshments until 2..

It will be a preview to the many
bi-college happenings over May
weekend as well as a chance to
meet. and make a date for that
affair.

It all began when Merion
missed a scheduled 3:30. Instead
they were promised that their
mixer, to take place April 8,
could go on until 2:00 instead
of the usual 12:30, But this also

presented a problem because Mer-
ion could not afford to have a band
for five hours. Then the admin-
istration informed the dorm that
it could not possibly have a mixer
on Good Friday. So it changed it
to the following Friday, April 18.
But it still didn’t have a band.

Then along came Haverfordwith
a survey taken before Spring
Vacation. According to 250 Hav-
erfordians, they would rather. have
a mixer with Bryn Mawr than with

any other school around. To
emphasize the importance of this,
the Bryn Mawr mixer rated 2.2
on a 1-7 scale and a juke box
in Union was 2.02, the highest
rating received.

Proceeds of this alumnae-spon-
sored event will go to the Region-
al Scholarship Fund, which will
help provide scholarships to Bryn
Mavr College for students from the
Delaware valley area, Chairman
of the Regional Scholarship Com-
mittee is Mrs, Fred Alexander,
Gladwyne. Chairman of the Book
Sale Committee this year is Mrs.
John H, Curtis, Philadelphia,

Mrs. Milton Nahm has been
chairman of the Book Sale for the
past six years, since its beginning
in 1960. She and a small hard-
working committee, including Mrs,
Curtis, have set the pattern for
what it is today--a unique and
fascinating opportunity to acquire
books of all types at relatively
low cost. The poster slogan
**something for every age and
interest?’ has always seemed well
justified, Prices range from 10¢
and up, and there are a few rare
books and collector’s items, —

All those who enjoy books and
value their circulation, and who
support the principle of scholar-
ship help, should be grateful to
Elinor Nahm for the work that
she has done on the Book Sale
project. Encouragement should go
to Barbara Curtis to’continue this
worthwhile effort.

You can help by bringing one
or more books to the Deanery
now for the Sale in April.

warming up. a few extensions,

it just occurred to me; like that.
you know,:the creative experience,
it’s a thing with me--dance. dance
for dance’s sake,

so i straightened up(from fourth

and said to the girl in the mirror:

soon mellowed to acceptance. i
realized where~i’d gore wrong.

aesthetic, I reasoned. what we need
are jocks--excuse the vernacular,
but i abhor senseless jargon.

sO, you know, as soon as i
could i got Bob Primack, and Rick

me that with that Burt-boy and
Lance J. we needed only one more,
so where do you go if you need
