Celebrated Literary Critic Frye Says alata: and Polish Characterize
The Poet Lives in Simple Realm’ Freshmen’s “Hitherto and Ever After”
» According to Mr. Northrop Frye,
distinguished — literary critic and
president of “Victoria College in the
University of Toronto, the. poet
lives in a simple realm where “the
sun rises in the east and sets in the
west over a flat world.”
_...This is not to.say that Mr. Frye
~eondemns ‘the poet, for in his lec-
ture in Géodhart on Monday evening
he quickly established himself as a
“style over content” mans. it-is not
for ideas, but for new ways of ex-
pressing these ideas, that we admire:
the. poet and read ‘his poetry.
Shakespeare’s* philosophy was pla-
titudinous and Dylan’ Thomas’s world
was one of ancient astrology rather
than modern science, but Mr. Frye
pointed out that nothing could ' be
less important.
“The «poet ‘is not profound except
by accident.” He is an intellectual
atavist” who ignores modern science
and thrives on. superstition. He
searches for the new expression’ of
the commonplace idea, and the Tro-
jan war is just as valid a subject
for the modern poet as it was” for
Homer. :
Coming closer to’ the heart of his
ostensible subject, “Action and Im-
age in Modern Poetry,” Mr. Frye
undertook a eonsideration of myth _
as a foundation from which all
poetry is derived. Literature he de-
fined as originally an attempt to.
“transform the non-human physical
environment into something .of hu- ©
man shape,” to set up conventions
. to protect itself from life.
Myth is one of the important
“means by which literature attémpts
to “swallow” life and present it in
the form of possibilities rather than
actualities. It follows . fromthe
nature of the poet—the poet as re-
«creator, not’ originator, of ideas—
that he should use myth and fill in
its “cloudy outlines’ ’with details ‘of
his own making.
Thus Mr. Frye feels that it is im-
possible to understand modern poet-

Finally, the scale of the confer-
ence and the~preparation for it at-
tested to Swarthmore’s determina-
tion to offer a valuable educational
experience. There were sets of back-
ground papers for each sub-topic of
the conference, compiled by the |
-Swarthmore students and sent to ~~~
each delegate before the conference.
Schools, particularly those with
Latin American studies programs,
‘were invited from all over the coun-
try and the: publicity was frequent
_and tempting. Swarthmore obtain-
‘ed grants for the conferéfice to en-~
able them to invite good people, to
publish ‘so profusely and to keep
conference fees low. Add to that a
smooth-running conference schedule
“and “adéquate accommiodations and
one can understand the success.
I suggest the reason Swarthmore
students are able to produce this
kind of job is that the conference
was a project supported wholeheart-
edly by the™Sigarthmore Student
Council, the fagelty and the admin-
istration. The Student Council com-
mitted the energy of the school to
the project and it—was- integrated
into every relevant department.
Faculty and administration gave 4
.great.deal more than their approval.
The students had a place to work
(the student activities building) and
resources of equipment, telephones,
typewriters, mimeograph materials).
But more than this, Swarthmore
had a group of student council mem-
bers committed to the success of the
conference. (This latter phenone-
non is generally. unknown: at Bryn
Mawr for anything more significant
- than Hell-week).
‘I can’t pelieve that Bryn Mawr ~
and Haverrord do not have students
as capable as those at Swarthmore.
I like to think an organized and:
active Student-.Ceuncil- here--could’
elicit-the:same—committed response...
And. I certainly reject the idea that
a student’s role in the educational
community. does “not include a topic
as controversial’ and unresolved as
the political and economic direction
of Latin America. It seems to: me
an example-stands before us which
we can either rise to meet or fail.
The conference was an’ invaluable
educational experience for: .every
student who created it or who par-
ticipated_in it, Let us not continue
to deprive ourselves of such ‘an ex-
perience.

}
The main question considered at
the Swarthmore Intercollegiate Con- --
ference on Democracy and Develop-
ment. in Latin America this past
weekend was whether or not poli-
tical democracy arid economic devel-~
‘opment.are compatible in Latin
America. :
The first address of. the confer,
ence was given on Friday ‘evenin,
by Ambassador Chester Bowles,
Presidential Assistant for- Asian,
African, and Latin American Affairs.
. Ambassador Bowles spoke on “De-
mocracy and Development in Inter-
American Affairs,” saying that the
United States -cannot expect ‘to pro-
\ mote the ideal of democracy with-
out first applying it at home. As
long as the ideal of democracy ‘is
contradicted in the-United- States,
by segregation and unequal .repre-
sentation in Congress, Latin-Amer-
-~Fenas’~cannot be expected to have
- much faith in it.
a
The second speaker was Senor
Cleantho de Piava Liete, Executive
Director of the Inter-American De-
’ velopment Bank, who spoke on “Kco-
fiomic Development and Social
Change in Latin America.” He stat-
ed_that economic development,is im-
portant only insofar as it is asso-
ciated ‘with nationalism: In other
words, development must stir the
* imagination and*the energies of ‘the
Latin American people if it is to
have much success. or. significance.
Saturday moming, Professor
George Blanksten of Northwestern
University presented “A General
Theory of Politics and Development
as Applied to Latin America.” He
...described...the political ..characteris- ._.
tics of under-developed economies
and discussed the relationship of
democracy’ to social change.

Lynn Thomas Skates In Competition —
“And Alternates On US Worlds ‘Team
The day after she finished her
last exam, one sophomore was far
from Bryn Mawr and her books.
Lynn -Thomas. was- in. Longbeach,
California.
She wasn’t, however, taking a re-
laxing break between semesters. She
was working’ six\or seven..hours a
day, preparing to enter the Nation-
al Senior Ladies Figure Skating
Competition, held this year in Long-°
beach -on February 9 and 10. .
The Nationals is one link in a
chain of skating competitions, which
culminate: in the “Worlds” competi-
tion and the .Olympics, if they are
held ‘that year.
To compete in the Nationals, one
must have placed: among the tirst
six skaters of the previous year’s
' Senior Nationals or among, the first
three of the Junior Nationals of the
~ year before.
-Lynn-.has..beeh- qualified forthe
past two years, since iff 1961 she won
third place,in the Junior Nationals
and then went on to place sixth in
the Senior Nationals in 1962. :
Lynn placed third: in the figure
skating event, and in the free skat-
ing event, she was again third
among the eight competitors, The
free skating event: requires music of
several! moods and tempos after
which the skater makes up a rou-.
~tine,- Lynn’s~ choice was unusual
to begin the second semester.
Lynn comes from Chestnut Hill
and is a prospective Political Science’
major. She has been skating since
she was five years old. Skating
played an important role.in her. de-
cision to come to Bryn Mawr. She
hadn’t been-sure that she would keep
“on with her skating at college, but
her. third place in the Junior Na-
tionals made up her mind for her,
and she came to Bryn Mawr so that
she could continue taking lessons
from the man who had been her
teacher for five years and lives in
Philadelphia.
When asked if she had a_ hard
‘time ‘keeping up with her studies,
Lynn admitted that it took a little
planning. “You just can’t sit around
-in. the smcker for two hours after
“or not she will become a profession=_-
ditmer;”~she said.
at Ardmore skating rink: for
about three hours a day—for an
hour_or two while the rest of us are
eating breakfast and another. hour
during dinner time.
She hasn’t decided yet whether
al skater, but if she does, she says
she would like to teach skating. She
particularly enjoys the creativity
which she feels figure skating com-
petition demands.
Next year she plans to enter the
nationals again, and, with luck, go
on to the Worlds. ;

“Velasquez is one of .the first

_ Recipe For Instant Scholarship
~_ Requires Recondite Annotations
: by Pauline Dubkin
After Robert Benchley, after a
fashion _
(Which* means that I- borrowed
parts of this. idea from Robert Ben-
chley, but didn’t T. S. Eliot say that
“Immature poets imitate, mature
poets steal?” And I do consider my---
““ self a poet).

We hear a lot about scholarship
around here, but how many know
just’ what scholarship really is, or
how to achieve it? =.
Fortunately, I have now ‘devised
a formula for instant scholarship.
It ‘reads “the more voluminous and
the more recondite the annotations, ©
the greater the amount of scholar-
ship.” It is foolproof.
Say you have to write a paper on.
“The Wasteland,” since we've. al-
_Teady “mentioned ~ Hliot:**rhis poenr
’* §n_its entirety obviously does not
lend itself to. scholarly. interpreta-
tion; which is ‘always intensive, not
extensive. So you only take a
small gection of the poem. In fact,
you can take only one sentence. In
that case, your paper will consist of
one sentence and 15 pages of foot-
notes. Here 2 ig an example, of the
technique:
April! ‘is2 ‘thes nee month.s
‘April, Corruption of
By “using this word--in-the~-opening
sentence of his poem, Eliot parodies
Chaucer, who did the same, and sug-
gests that the characters of “Fhe
Wasteland” are also “embarking on
a pilgrimage. It is interesting to
‘note that “April” is the first word
of the sentence and “month” is the
last, April being a month. Thus the
beginning and the end of the sen-
tence are correlates but not identi-
cal, as is the case in line {20, ‘““Noth-
ing again. nothing.”
2aIs, i.e, not not is. This concept
is borrowed-from-the-field-of logic,
were “p”.is the same as “not not p.”

own “Murder in the Cathedral.” Most
commentators on the poem think it
“should” be~ pronounced” “thuh;” ~ al=

lative here makes it clear that Eliot

‘as’ some critics’ have contended, he

Remarkable East House Leprechauns :
‘Decline To, Emulate,,Student Exodus
by Diana Koin, ’65
—An epitaph to East House —
As most of us know, East House
will: be torn: down in the coming
months to make way for Erdman
dorm. The last Freshmen were
moved out last week.
Once upon..a time about a, block
down the hill from the campus stood
a homely white house which opened
its doors to a different group of
girls every single year. This wonder-_
ful palace was called East House,
Although its doors are now locked
forever, the girls who lived there
will never forget it.
An old. gentleman -named Mr.
Miserable helped watch over . the
girls, making sure. they were all
safely inside by dawn. Mr. Miser-
able told. the girls that the trees
aveund..the house..were, inhabited by ™
leprechauns; perhaps it. was their
magic that helped make East House
a very.-special: place. so z
The wonders within its walls were
incredible to behold. Most beloved
‘of all was an antique- refrigerator,
truly marvelous in its abilities, and
especially prized because. of its uni-
queness. The’ girls also loved the
windows on the second floor because
they led to the roof, an enchanted
place. in the spring. The plumbing,
heating and electricity were ‘also
‘fairly incredible due to their mode
of operation, or, as the case usually
‘was, their lack of operation.
The girls who lived in East House:
weren’t really any. different from
the girls who lived a block up the .
hill, but nevertheless,they had cer-’
tain distinctive traits.. For instance,
most of them were not extraordin-

The most

night, sometimes failing to cease
until morning.
