you,
In press conference Friday to
ballyhoo her. new flick THE
CARDINAL, cinemannequin Lynley
‘emerged as an exciting, vibrant
personality - with myriad outside
interests, including movie maga-
zines, three or four books, and
lying (sie) in thé sun.
But seriously, Miss *L--whom
most remember as a silk and
porcelain ingenue on every other
page of SEVENTEEN -- is trying
to become afine actress, Honestly.
Her roles’ (yes, two) in THE
CARDINAL were the hardest, most -
interesting, challenging, and re-
wafding of her career. To explore
the potentialities of herself and
her roles was ‘‘fascinating,’’ and
her best performance has resulted.
- The ‘*extremely strong direction’’
of Otto Preminger may have
helped.

found theme music records, both

‘some trumpets, and a male vibrato

We suggest you wait until seeing
the film. Perhaps in context the

THE REVOLT. OF — THE
COLLEGE INTELLECTUAL by
Everett Lee Hunt, published by
' Human Relations Aids, New York,
172pp.,$5.00. ;
-The intellectual revolution in our
* colleges is an. accepted fact. The
noncomformists, the delinquents,
the hordes of unwashed in the
‘cult of the grubby’? have been
repeatedly pulled to shreds, with
‘Time magazine recently adding
their two cents worth, It has been
the Thing To Do to criticize the
college intellectual,
At last, however, a fair a
has been written. Everett Lee
Hunt, Dean Emeritus’ and Pro-
fessor Emeritus of Swarthmore
has a more. constructive and
realistic, ean if you like,
contribution, Mr. Hunt
attempted to explain and analyse
this intellectual revolution and find
the constructive aspects instead of
dwelling on the destructive ones.
In his analysis of the revolt
of the college’ intellectual, Mr.
Hunt “discusses the change ia the
attitude of today’s students. They
look down on the rah-rah antics
of their fathers’ generation, be- —
coming involved instead with
national-and political affairs -sit-
ins, strikes and other similar
events,
What Dean Hunt wants to find
, out is -- what is the meaning of
this intellectual revolution? Are
the students ‘less adolescent and
more. mature, or -do their.im- -

: Young Intellectual Campus Revolution
maturities merely manifest them-
Selves in* different’ ways.’’
‘Perhaps, he says, the maturity
is ‘shown in their political and
national interests, while the
adolescence is betrayed indiv-
idually .in ‘‘a superior con-
descension or in depressive .
inferiority complexes.” As one
Harvard senior said, ‘Well,
Harvard really is.a terrible place
to be, but whefe else would you
go?!’
_Discussing the-phenomenon-. of. ewes
late adolescence, Dean Hunt says,
“tthe adolescent rebellion of in- *
dividuals is an anciently observed '
and permanent. phenomena, but it
is only in recent times that whole
group. cultures have become
dominated by adolescent intel-
lectuals.?
Using his close observation of |
Swarthmore drawn from over 30
years of experience as dean and
professor, Mr. Hunt questions the
role of the liberal arts college
in the revolt. ‘Should it try to
teach students to adjust to the
world as it is -- or should they
be encouraged to revolt???
And- he gives the opinions of
students on many college prob-
lems -- suchas customs, attitudes,
actions, and expressions of values.
Swarthmore, known well for its
*feagerness,’’ is an ideal place to
examine the current intellettual
‘revolution, _ At .Swarthmore. and
other colleges requiring a high
* admission standard, failure re-
sults from emotional problems.
The task at hand is to direct the
emotional buildup from thestress -
of the intellectual revolution into
a constructive, not destructive path
(and this is being done), Then the
revolt of the Intellectuals will _
prove its value in the accomplish-
_ments of. the graduates!
League’s 8 Activities”
Require More Aid —
Saturday mornings at BMC
usually means ‘extra hours of sleep
or study, or a trip to the laundro-
mat. For six members of League,
however, Saturday begins early,
with a train trip, to Philadelphia.
For the past two years, League _
- has sent six girls every other
week to the Children’s Reception °
Center of Philadelphia, the city’s
orphanage for children under five,
The girls stay with the children
until after lunch, playing withthem,
feeding them, and giving them other
personal attention.
‘‘what we notice most about
these children is their lackofper- -
sonal possessions; toys and
books,’’ say members..who have
worked on the project. League is
now considering a drive for toys
and books, but ‘‘what we need most
of all is ‘student support -- not
necessarily permanent members,
but students who would be willing
to devote some spare time occa-
sionally to this and other League
projects.’’
