Fine Precision, Clarity And Vitality Curriculum Will Be Reviewed,
Hailed In Chorus-Orchestra Concert
by John: Davison
Assistant Professor of Music
Haverford College ;
_ Tova large audience which gather-
Goodhart Hall, the Bryn Mawr-Hav-
erford Orchestra and the combined
‘choruses .of the two colleges pre-—
sented” an outstandingly. successful
concert. which brought. deep enjoy-
ment. Robert Goodale and William _
Reese ‘were’ the ‘conductors, Anna
‘Norberg and James Katowitz~ ap-
peared as soloists, and the Haver-
. ford College Brass -Ensemble-made
a debut in its new enlarged form.
Reviewers lavish with praise and
sparing with ‘criticism are often
fobbed off as dullards, lacking» in
‘wit.and perception. © Very wellthen,
I will run: the risk. of being so: con--
sidered. Of what: possible use could
it be to announce the strings’ flat-
ness in measure five, to proclaim the
‘winds’ lateness in measure twenty,
or to deplore the chorus’s inaudibil-
ity in- measure sixty-five? We are
dealing here-with a group of stu-
dents, amateurs, who must snatch
‘time from pressing studies to re-
hearse, who are mostly of slight
musical experience, and yet who
gave, us a rich succession, of mem-
‘orable. musical images~during an
, evening of sound that was golden
in_it_ warmth and_lyricism. —The-oc-
~asional. shig¢ht-defects-only-made—;
more evident, like beauty spots, the
excellence of the whole.
PROMETHEUS
The brisx and brilliant Beethoven
“Prometheus’-Overture that .open-
ed the program showed. the Bryn
Mawr-Haverford Orchestra at its
highest leve! yet. There was not
only vitality; there were precision
~-~and~ ¢larity, qualities ‘much more
rarely achieved in student perform-
ances.
The brass phate, taking: over the
~~~ Stage next;-surprised“ the~audience~
with its.new air of confidence and
~ ¢ompeténce. The added strength in
numbers--seems to~ have brought
about a. decided decrease in the
amount of flatting and ‘nervous fluf-
fing as well’ as an increase in rich-
ness and fullness of sonority. Of
the three pleasant short pieces from
the Seventeenth Century (the great
century for brass music), Locke’s
Music for King Charles II stood out
as having not only nobility but a
certain unexpected poignancy as well.
The selection from the “Bankelsan-
‘gerlieder” had the forthright Ger-
manic bumptiousness suggested. by
its title.
Anna Norberg’s performance in
Chopin’s Piano Caste in E Minor
ee eq eat
erynanberbow y
called forth much, enthusiasm, and
with good reason. Miss Norberg
played. in impeccable Chopin style;
never letting herself get in the way
of the music: She treated. the piano
as a singing instrument, gave each
phrase its own \.proper subtlety of .
contour, and tossed off difficult. pas- -
-sages*in_2- pearly--manner--in--which,~
virtuoso display never: obscured mu-
sical meaning. The orchestra, not ©
sounding quite as at ease as in the
Beethoven, nevertheless did its part
. with sensitivity and with the correct
unobtrusiveness in the many passag-
“es Where this latter quality is ‘Call-—
edgfor.
RECENT WORKS a
-The second part of the program
consisted of two fairly recent- works
for chorus and orchestra, either of
which should convince anybody on
first hearing that the music of our
century is not all cacophony and
chaos, The Musica para.un cédice
salmantino by the living Spanish
composer Joaquin Rodrigo, brought
back from Spain by Professor Good-
ale, adds handsomely to our know-
ledge of this gifted composer, whose
guitar’ concerto-is the only one of
his. works

that opened doors of the imagina-
tion. It was unusual and fresh,
clear and at the same time mellow,

New Amendments
- ‘bhree proposea Constitutional amendments are quiety |
Making ie rounds-ol- the State Legisiatures.
Neither tne
generai pubic, which seems hardly aware of their existence,
nor the ‘egisialures appear to be troubled by the tact that the
passage OI these amendments would have aimost-revolution- ~
ary elects on our American system ot government. é
_ All these amendments are designed to replace federal
supremacy with state supremacy in-tne’areas. tney deal with.
the first would torbid tne’ United States Supreme Court to”
hear cases involving re-zoning of voting districts, ‘ne 1ndl-
vidual's voling rignts are among those explicitly safeguarded
by the Constitution. ‘Lhe Supreme Court has. taken .tne roe
QI guafdian ot those rights. against the encroachment OI state
power. Ji this tunction.1s limited, the balance between state
‘and tederal power will be upset > tie state will 1mettect be made
judge ‘in its own Cause, since it’ will be able not omy to enact
laws but to determine their constitutionality. :
. ‘Dhe next amendment would create a court made up ot
justices from state supreme courts to review decisions oI the
United States Supreme Court. ‘l'o set up another Judicial body
with the same tunction as the present Supreme,Court is a
redundancy. it seems clear that the framers of t.
ment had other ends in mind. ‘heir purpose is to place repre-
- ‘sentatives. ot state interests over those whose end 1s the inter-

por oye At
pretation of laws. Whereas the previous amendment would
weaken the Supreme Court’s power, this one would completely
~ ¢hange the way mm which justice is determined. in ‘the present
Supreme Court the determination of justice is a contest among
diltering ideas of right; 1n the proposed court the contest would
be among groups working tor partisan ends.
The third proposed amendment would allow states to
amend the Constitution without the concurrence of Congress.
in the Constitution-as it-now.stands,the-passing of amend-
ments is a joint ettort of federal“and state government. .‘Lhis
amendment would derange the system of checks.and- balances
by giving the component governments power: over the whole.
We.are disturbed by these proposed amendments, not be- :
cause of their revolutionary character, but ‘because we feel
‘that the assumptions on which they are based are faulty. They
seem to imply that staté power isan end in itself. We believe
this to be a misinterpretation of the purposes of American gov- ~~
ernment: !'the United States is a collection.of individual peo-
ple, not individual sovereignties. The system of checks and —
balances was, designed for individuals, and any disturbance of
this balance would be contrary:to the spirit of the Constitu-
tion. tat :
‘WBMC |
It is unfortunate that so valuable an instrument as a col-
lege radio station should ‘die.’ A radio station can, and
should, exert almost as great an’influence on the student body
as does a newspaper. it can provide practical experience in
all aspects of broadcasting: announcing, engineering, technical
work and business. And, if handled with enthusiasm, it can _
__provide-good listening for the entire college.
We propose that WBMC be reorganized, and the News is
’ willing to sponsor this reorganization; to-draw together people
who are interested in various aspects of radio work, to investi-_
__gate the- possibilities of.improvements. of the.present set-up
and to publicize activities of the station.
WBMC was for many years an important part. of Bryn
Mawr. The equipment and facilities, the large record collec-
tion and the. small, but significant bank balance remain, and’
_ are an adequate basis for reactivation of the station. ‘Technical
assistance wotild probably be available from Haverford, since
it was given freely all. the years WBMC functioned.
Even the problem of limited range can be solved
ing area to the whole campus was formulated, requiring only
a $75 loan. While the same sum would no lomger be sufficient,
this figure indicates the improvement would be financially
feasible. : oh
One-of the great problems of WBMC, the lack of publicity,
can easily be solved through an active liaison with the News,
which can publish broadcasting schedules for WBMC.
“Tt has been suggested that WBMC could be used in place
of hall announcements, with perhaps a certain time each day
devoted to campus-wide notices. The money now paid to the
hall announcers could be re-channeled to WBMCE to help pay
for wider coverage.. The station could be used to supplement
the dinner system during elections and perhaps eventually to
transmit leetures, concerts, etc. to the entire campus. :
The College News feels that a the work required to
reactivate the station and to make it a Significant part of Bryn
Mawr, it is a worthwhile task. Anyone whois interested in
learning about broadcasting or participating in the reactiva-
tion of WBMC should contact The College News.

Artist s Role Today at 1963 Response
_ by .Elizabeth ‘Greene
The 1963 Response, «held from ise
April 19 to April 21 at. Princeton,
featured writers, musicians, art-
ists, archite¢ts and executives in.a
discussion of “The Artist in an
. Industrial Society.”
‘The conference opened with Ar-
_nold Gingrich moderating a panel :
au- (
of Who’s Afraid of Virginia °
‘ composed of Edward Albee,
thor
Woolf, Bernard Malamud, author
‘instance, an electric
of The Assistant, and Robert .Penn .
Warren, author of All the King’s
Men and, with Cleanth Brooks, co-
- founder of the New, Criticism.
Mr: Malamud said, that critics
complained that the modern novel
was too concerned with the tyran-
ny of symbolism and not enough
‘concerned with, social problems.
He stressed that the important aim
of a-novel was to Panties. “intri=~
-eate and mysterious man.’
TECHNIQUE
He added that, although the SP
ject matter of a novel may be
personal, the novelcan, and prob-
ably will, reflect the society. As to
the form, of modern novels, “A
modern writer will use any ‘tech-
nique to get feeling,” he coneluded.
‘“He’s got my gospel,” ’ Robert
Penn Warren began. He added
“Trony ‘has laid the tissue’ of our
time.” As for modern. society, :
“Man seems to be living in an
anti-society. He denies the sense
of identity granted by the union
with other- men and.with nature.
“In modern art, the will to style
led to obscurity ‘and alienated art
from society. Modern poets are
@xquisitely -concdrned~~-with their
‘ personal fate, but if it is art, liter-
- ature looks outside and.creates a
world; bs looks inside and creates
a man.’
“T ean only: talk “to you about
the. pursuit of literary excellence
in a dictatorship—I mean a dem-
“eracy,” said ‘Edward Albee, the
‘third panelist. “It is the mindless

with the owner-of the theater, the

He concluded with an appeal to
the audience to demahd good
theater. “The audience ,has a re-

In spite of a plaque over the Ap-.

named for her. Constance Applebee,
who: came from England to this
country in 1901, brought to us her
favorite sport, field hockey. Since
_then she has worked very. hard to fthe Physical
“promote the ‘game in her adopted
country.
Miss Applebee, whe will be nine-

Harvard University summer ses-

Jerusalem.” She didn’t like the
game at all. She looked around un-
til she saw an interesting person

room, the lady whom Miss Applebee
had chosen to follow asked if they
played such games ‘in England, She

BMC-Haverford Art Show
Displays Skill, Originality
.. by. Constance Rosenblum
As.a part of the Parents Day. fes-
tivities, a Bryn. Mawr-Haverford
Student-Faculty Art Show opened
in the Roost on Saturday.
The collection, sponsored by Arts
Council, is far more colorful and
varied than the first student exhibi-
tion, including works in a wide va-
“riety of media—woodcuts, etchings,
*
on eS

pen and ink drawings, Warerenlore,
oils.
The most impressive works ex-
hibited are a series of nine black
and white paintings by Fritz: Jans-
chka, abstract illustrations for
“American Nights” by Richmond
Lattimore. Arranged in ‘columns of
two and giving the impression of
the pages of a book, the paintings do
not merely illustrate Mr. Lattimore’s
Seated sahbeater. it. demands. and. deseryes.”’ ee poems;- but rather. they. capture. the.
- in “The. Inner -
essence and spirit of the: poems.
The bold, almost primitive —paint-
ings seem able to interpret not only
the concrete images in Mr. Latti-
more’s poems, but the highly ab+
stract ones as well. “Knee deep in
froth of. daisies and the night”
suggested to Mr. Janschka a’ few
rough stars; surrounded. by broad
circles,
of “daisy+ness” as precisely © ag any
~Titeral “drawing of-a- -daisy- would,
“This ribbon world of nerves, driy-
ing forever driving in a dream” is”
captured by. a few indications “of-
axles juxtaposed on circles; and even:
with: such intangible and~ abstract
words” as “ip me.-and no. one else
the world is grown” the feeling’ of
the ‘words are caught, in this case
with: an indication. ofthe delicate,
tear-like center of a bleeding- heart.
Other~ outstanding “work in the
exhibition “is “done ~by~ Jane~--Rese:—--

“My Father, Working on the Tele-

nevertheless, in the blue-gray cloth-

pieces there was muchrdluidity and a
rhythmic balance of..forms.
Jane’s vaintings, especially “Sev-

“Vistas of The Four Day Week” are
_executed_with a “feathery”. and.del-
icate use of medga, so that the
slightly rough texture of the draw-
ings was as important as the colors
themselves.
Joanne Wilson’s works, primarily

- Love At Twenty Depicted i in Fi ive Fi oreign Countries
As No Bed of Roses, But Moving and Provocative
by Constance Rosenblum.
If your conception of. love- at
twenty has been a frothy confec-
tion of hearts and: flowers, you'll
“probably be forced to revise it
_slightly after seeing the movie
Love at Twenty. In this movie,
love is more a conglomeration of
mufder and mystery than of moon-
light \serenades and romantic téte-
a-tétes:
~The - movie examines love in five
countries: ‘France, Italy, Japan,
Germany, and Poland. The first
two episodes were somewhat trite
and stereotyped; treatments. of
two-common. problems: the eternal
triangle,-‘and the . rejected young
lover.
In. Paris, alovesick boy, sisi
ted by an attractive student at the
Sorbonne, finds that all his man-
ipulations to attract her attention
are dismissed with; mild tolerance.
__He finally emerges —' pathetic and.
disillusioned — to find thakonly in
the girl’s parents’ eyes is he par-
ticularly important...The episode
which took place in Italy concern-
ed” a smoldering and : jealous
“other woman” and her attempts
to. poison. the heart of her newest
rival.
The last three episodes, though
not particularly sugar-coated, were
nevertheless provocative, slightly
distunbing, and. presented. with
more artistry than the preceding
two selections.
In Japan, love, by an ambiguous
transferénce of ‘emotions; is man-
ifest by hate and violence: a young
man is able to demonstrate his
“love” only by “choking to death
the girl whom the loved, when he
encounters her on a dark and lone-
ly street one evening. The guilt
that-results_from.this_act is_ulti-
mately transformed into hysteria,
and he verges on the state of con-
fession and repentence, but cannot
rid himself of the image of the.
pale and haunting face of the
girl-whom he has brut@ly murder-
ed. Nota very optimistic image of
romance, but nevertheless a power-
ful and sensitively performed des-
cription of convincing emotions.
In Germany, love is handled
more-lightly.. The father of an. il-

legitimate child returns to the
paby’s mother in an attempt to re-
examine their past mistakes and,
to reverse the traditional pattern
of love, romance, children. A few
beautiful. landscapes, the earthy
humor. of several. of the minor
Characters, and the hope that the
_ young father, when called away
Suddenly on business, will return
to the mother and child, give this
episode a far more optimistic and
appealing tone than the others.
The last examination of love,
which is set in Poland, is by far
the most outstanding part of the
movie. The theme is original, the
filming is artistic, and’ the emo-
‘ tions and characters are convinc-
- and well- developed.
It concerns a young girl who is
attracted to a man courageous
enough to leap into a bear-pit to
rescue a fallen child. She urges
him to come home with her, in an
effort to subtly induce him into her
shallow* and unexamined world.
But he, having undergone among -
other traumatic experiences, ‘vio-
lent. shock resulting from_ brutal
and terrifying experiences during
the War, is unable to enter her
world, or to understand her *be-
havior.
The episode ons with the girl ©
unable to fathom -his complexity,
and willing to relapse into a super-
ficial relationship with her imma-
ture.contemporaries. In contrast to
. the light: and fluffy beginning of
‘this series of short films, this en-
igmatic and disturbing ending was
excellent. -
~ Suggestions, But Few Contributions
‘Mark League’s Campus Fund Drive
by Diane Schuller
From the time that the League
was first organized, it has been an
association actively dealing with so-.
cial service and the philanthropic
enterprises which spring from busy
and. genervus spirits.
In the early part of this ‘year, the
League conducted. its annual Campus
Fund Drive. When the list calling
for the seiection of ten charities
from the many listed was sent to
the dormitories, there was a_ fine
response and hopes for collecting a
large sum of money for the charities
were high.
The results of the collection have
just been released. Unfortunately;
there were many more students who
offered suggestions of charities to
which’ the campus should contribute,
than studerts who actually gave to
them.
The total amount of money col-
lected was $830.60.. Pembroke East
led the college in contributing the
most amount of money to charities

“We did,’ Mr, Kempton, -as-the
first speaker, answered.
Mr. Kempton criticized the ’an- -
nual Federal defense expenditure
of $60 billion, stating that. the
arms. allotment destroys the bal-
ance. of the budget. Because,--he
said, we live in a utilitarian so-
ciety — a society that has hever
believed in absolutes — we spend
increasing amounts. on - what ‘is
useless. Mr. Kempton proceeded to
criticize the Conservative move-
ment — -as represented by Mr.
Buckley.— for not challenging the.
military budget.
“Mr.
Conservatives: are concerned with
freedom in areas the {Liberals
never mention: personality tests
in schools, the right not to answer
a census-taker, Social Security, and
‘investigation of. Communists. ..
The Conservative movement ‘is,
Mr. Kempton stated, “a selective
movement. Its punishments. are
for those it does not like.”
_, According to Mr.. Buckley, the
“Who” lies somewhere between
Adam and Eve: — as the reaction-
aries see it — and the John Birch
Society — as the progressives see
it.
Conservatives, Mr. Buckley can-
Kempton then stated that:

tinued, consider human beings as -
—ipeme-inekined because of man’s
affinity for ~“mess-making” we
must, he said, all co-operate in up-
cua standards.
Citing C. P. Snow; who has re- -
marked that he would be equally
happy in a Communistic or’a free
society, Mr. Buckley stated that.
“our failure to perceive the differ-
ence [between the two ways of
life] is the best index of the mess
we're in.”
To the “Would- be Mess-Remov-..
ers,’ Mr. Buckley adjured: “Love
the Lord; -, resist those who
would reach into. your very shower
to_adjust the nature of your wa-
ter; . . . study the ways of your
enemy; .. . in despair, read Mur-
ray Kempton.”
In the rebuttal, Mr. Kempton
commentéd on his support of ‘the
liberties of American Communists
— not. because they are decent
people but because ‘they are Am-
ericans ...~ You cannot,” he said,
‘“land--on—an-~American- because. of —~
the label he wears.”
Mr. Buckley, in answer, noted
the problem of victimization of |:
people by those whom the FBI is
trying to apprehend; he cited the
fate of societies which have suc-
cumbed to ‘“mawkishness.”
“After questions from the floor,
each ,speaker made a closing ad-
dress.*Mr.~ Buckley, in .this period,
stated that “the function of the
Conservative’is to call men to duty
. to set up standards and to
ask men to adhere to them.” -Con-
servatives, he stated, are prepared
to put up: principles and systems ~
. by which “we will. maximize
freedom of individuals.”
Mr. Kempton stated that either
through the Federal Government,
or by ourselves, we must find some
way of solving the problem of in-
equality of wealth.

~The-conference will be the first
of a series, held every two years,

the role of women in today’s so-
ciety. Interested “persons from alh-"~~~
over the country will be invited to
attend the conferences, which will
last for several days. Included’ in
the program will be panel discus-
sions, and authorities from all over
the world will read papers on the
subject: These are to be collected
and published’ in book form after
each conference. .
Mr. Brown plans to invite a so-
ciologist or political historian from
Soviet Russia or Poland to speak
at the forthcomng conference. The
committee is alsg considering ‘the
possibility of student: participation.
Selected Bryn_

cussion groups “and offer:~their~
ideas on the. subject. In conjunc-
tion with this: tentative plan, Mr.
Brown, mentioned having a_ Rus-
sian. or. Polish student speak on
the situation in her country, -fol-

American — students, in -view of
their own college experience.

of most’ incredible beauty, and it all
ends with a declaration of the van-

lies by surging into a highly affir-:

It was really’a beautiful concert.
The music was well chosen and well
rehearsed, and performed with love
and enthusiasm. Many congratula-
tions to the orchestra, choruses, and
soloists, and Dr. Goodale and Dr.
Reese; for bringing the musical re-

The following questions will be
posed during this. review:* How: can,
the college plan a‘curriculum which
will not only enable more students
to study math, but will also permit.
them to study math to a er lev-
el?
- How can the college be as sure as
possible that freshmen move into the:
most advanced work for which’ they:
are qualified? How can it extend:
the range of non-Western studies ?
Should Chinese and Japanese be
taught?
How can students be given time
for music and art when these fields
are now outside the realin’of- re-
quired work?
How should the senior year for the
non-honors student be considered?
As it now stands, it is not a climax

Basically, the problem in revising
the curriculum will be to find a
means of strengthening it in terms
of a broad liberal education while
meeting the requirements of many
of the departments for greater
depth.

Reviewer “Finds Mondo Cane Offers Disturbing Comment
by Christ y Bednar
Mondo Cane (Dog, World), an
Italian documentary film with Eng-
lish narration, will be shocking to
some;. yet to others it makes an
amazingly vivid comment: on the
varying social customs of the world.
One might even say that the film
is intended to shock., It presents
to self-centered and self-satisfied
"people. who consider themselves and
their way of life “normal” :some of
the parts of life which they, accept.
Then, with’ skillful transitions, it
shows them. another part of. the
world. where this-is not. the case at
all. There is a very touching scene
(touching to the. millions of senti-
mental dog owners in America), of
a middle-aged. couple laying their
‘aby” to rest in a famous\Califor-
nia pet cemetery. The scene ‘quick--
ly shifts to Burma where the ‘na-
tives are choosing succulent. little
puppies for their dinner., Dog meat
is one of the delicacies of the area.
It. is. this..kind.of..transition.that
shines as far as the technical skill
of the movie-is concerned. The film,
shot.under adverse conditions in Bor-
neo and New Guinea, is extremely
well edited, and the photography is
excellent. despite the apparent hard-
ships.
The’ first./ half of Mondo’ Caiie
sticks to its poitit: documented obser-.
vations leaving the viewer free to
draw his own conclusions. How-
ever, the scene in which one sees a
Chinese family celebrating the dy-
ing hours of one of its elder.mem-
bers’ (who lies unattended ‘in a -Sin-
gapore “death house”) begins a chain
‘of similarly disappointing. scenes.
For this critique of. the Chinese
people, as: well as derisive imnplica-
tions toward other cultures, leaves
the viewer with the feeling that the
film has fallen’ into its own trap,
