    “Caucasian Circle” Ready Students Elect Gilpin, Atwood, Nosco,
    For Weekend Showings Masur and Cross as Campus Leaders

    The Bryn Mawr College Thea-
    tre and the Haverford College
    Drama Club will present. Bertolt

    Brecht’s THE C AUCASIANCHALK ,

    CIRCLE March 10 and 11 inGood-
    hart Hall. Faith Greenfield, Chris
    Kopff and James Emmons have
    leading roles.

    Brecht wrote the 48-character
    play in 1944. ‘‘It’s a quite extra-
    ordinary accomplishment —by
    Brecht in making statements about
    sentimental love which usually
    come out Lux Liquid,’? summar-
    ized Director Robert Butman. The
    play itself takes place ‘‘in olden
    times, in a bloody time” in a
    Caucasian city. Brecht opposes

    ‘justice and goodness -- as exem-

    plified by two of the principal
    characters in the play, Grusha and
    Simon -- to the evil and injustice
    in the world. Brecht professed
    communism, but the themes in
    CHALK CIRCLE are meaningful
    to all men. The title comes from
    the story in ‘‘Solomon’’ of the two
    mothers pleading for one baby.
    Justice prevails when the real
    mother reveals herself by refus-
    ing to allow the King to cut the



    baby in half. In Brecht’s play
    the Judge draws a chalk circle
    and tells the two women each
    to take an end of the child and

    _ pull.

    Butman explained the philoso-
    phy behind the set for the play.
    One of the biggest problems in
    producing a play at Bryn Mawr,

    “he said, is fighting the nionstros- «

    ity of Goodhart Hall. No set can
    be monolithic enough to live up to
    the Hall itself ‘‘unless they’re
    crucifying Joan of Arc in the mid-
    dle of the arch.’”’ Therefore, the
    production staff is combining lights
    with the set to help alleviate the
    distance between the play and the
    audience. The set includes six
    platforms and a 10-foot tower
    at one edge of the stage on which
    the Narrator will sit.

    Music will also be used to
    bring all the elements of the play
    together at“the last moment. John
    Davison, of the Haverford College
    Music Department, wrote music
    for a previous production of
    CHALK CIRCLE in Roberts Hall.
    He will play piano and drums.

    No Undergrad Speaker This Year,
    Exec Board Buys Mimeo Instead

    There will be no Undergrad
    speaker this year, that organiza-
    tion announced after its Monday
    night meeting.

    Margaret Edwards, dieieiien

    President of Undergrad, gave as
    reasons the following: (1) they
    were unable, to get any of the
    people suggested by the Commit-
    tee for ‘the Undergrad Speaker
    (2) members were generally un-
    enthusiastic about other sugges-
    tions made. She said that with
    the money usually alloted for the
    speaker Undergrad will purchase
    a new mimeograph machine, and
    whatever is left will go into the
    kitty for next year’s speaker.

    Questioned about the opinion of
    some students that the Undergrad
    speaker ought to be done away with
    entirely, Margaret said that noth-
    ing about it had been discussed at
    all in Undergrad meetings.

    Incoming “President Lola At-

    for the Undergrad speaker, for
    these reasons: I think there are
    three kinds of speakers -- those
    who’ll come for $25, those who
    come for $200, and the ones who
    cost about $1000. We can usually
    only have thé last kind for occa-
    sions like Baccalaureate and grad-
    uation, and organizations such as
    Alliance and Interfaith provide a
    lot of speakers who come for from
    $25 to $100. But the Undergrad
    ‘speaker? is about the only chance
    the college has to hear a $200
    speaker, and I think it needs the
    chance. Now in years like this
    when we can’t find a speaker for
    $200 of the caliber we want, then
    I think we should not have one --
    ‘which is what was done this time.
    But in the past we have had speak-
    ers such as Peter Verrick --.and
    he was really good -- and I think
    to do away with them would be
    absurd.’’ Lola said she would like
    to discuss this in future Under-
    grad meetings. :

    Gerace? ox.

    The. first round of campus
    elections is over and seven new
    presidents are preparing to take
    over their offices after spring
    vacation. They are:

    Drewdie Gilpin for Self-Gov
    Lola Atwood for Undergrad
    Donna Cross for A,A,°

    Judy Masur for Arts Council
    Doris Dewton for Alliance
    Sue Nosco for Curriculum
    Committee

    Cheri Morin for League

    In.view of the pressing issue
    of constitutional revision, Drew-
    die’s attitude towards __ the
    role of Self-Gov will be
    very significant.
    that ‘*the Self-Government system
    cannot and should not act as mother
    to the student body’’ indicated
    a basic approval of the reforms
    advocated by the Constitutional
    Revision Committee. Drewdie now
    has the opportunity to make Self-
    Gov ‘‘provide catalysts for
    the creative use of freedom by
    individuals in their growth.”’

    Lola, who understandably enough

    bs opposed "tothe *abélition

    of Undergrad, promises to keep
    future Undergrad meetings from

    being ‘“‘hateful.?? She plans
    to stress, ‘‘interesting, im-
    portant problems,’”? with an

    emphasis on the crucial role of
    the dorm reps as communications
    links, She trusts that with an
    updated calendar and ‘‘a list of
    everyone who is in charge of any-
    thing” she will be a mine
    of exact and necessary information

    From Donna Cross, we can

    of a variety of new ‘‘fun’’ activi-
    ties--maybe even softball with the
    faculty children, or discovering an
    esteemed professor more fre-

    ‘Faculty Show’ Is Coming!
    Proceeds To Help Library

    The fireworks of faculty show
    will be set off Thursday, March 16,
    at 8:30 in Goodhart, as the fa-
    culty celebrate their talents with
    singing, dancing, talking, andplain
    old joie de vivre,

    This year’s show, according to
    Miss Mabel Lang, consists of a
    variety of skits tied together very
    *‘loosely’’, Since there is no one
    theme, to label this original con-
    stellation of faculty stars, it was
    decided to assign the non-commital
    title of ‘‘Faculty Show”’ to the pro-
    duction, Although Miss Lang feels
    the show is too amorphous for di-
    recting, she is doing her best to
    hold it together and call rehear-
    sals every now and then,

    About half of the faculty, their
    wives, and any other non-student
    they could persuade to be dragged
    in are involved in the show, Stu-
    dents have been allowed to help
    with the technical aspects, how-
    ever, And Miss McBride will be
    there in spirit.

    A “terrifically hot combo’ of
    Bryn Mawr and Haverford faculty,
    a porter, and ‘‘God knows what
    else’ will keep the beat going
    through the evening,

    - “Sinceit is hard enough to
    band the faculty together for one
    _rehearsal, there will be only one
    performance, says Miss Lang.

    The money the show raises will

    eae ann

    go towards the new library.

    Tickets for students may be
    purchased from Betsy Gemmill
    in Taylor on Monday, Tuesday,
    and Wednesday at 10 and 11 a.m.
    They are $1,50, and can be charged
    to Payday. Faculty must see

    Police Apprehend
    Villanova Boys

    Last Saturday night three Villa-
    nova freshmen were caught out-
    side Rhoads by the Lower Merion
    Township police, after having
    broken into several campus
    buildings.

    It began in Pembroke, when the
    lantern man was letting in some
    girls just after 12:30, The three
    boys, drunk, ran out of the build-
    ing. The lantern man called the
    police.

    Later, a watchman saw them
    passing things out of one of the
    science building windows. Then a
    faculty wife saw them lurking
    around the Low Buildings, and
    someone else reports seeing them
    on the Merion fire-escape.

    The police apprehended them
    outside, Rhoads,

    Mrs. Whelihan commented that

    the campus should know that this
    sort of thing does happen, and
    that door-watchers should be alert.

    she asks. ‘*Why not a Finger-

    painting Festival?’? Judy pleads __

    for the Outward manifestation of all
    innér artistic urges.

    Both Doris Déwton and“ Cheri
    Morin would like to see increased
    cooperation between their organi-'
    zations. As Cheri said, ‘In
    this day when economic, political,
    and social welfare concerns
    are intricately bound together, I
    think that there are many
    areas of mutual interest to which
    League and Alliance could direct
    their combined resources.”’

    Sue Nosco, who hopes to
    see a major expansion of Cur-
    riculum Committee activities
    under her presidency, made an
    apt statement which might apply
    to all the winners. ‘‘I guess since
    I have been elected I’ll have to
    figure out how to do all the —
    I said I’d do.’?



    Legislature

    Legislature will meet

    around the two major
    changes, Article IV, Section
    Vi, the Social Committee
    and Section Il F of the By
    Laws, the Required Vote;
    but the Constitution as a
    whole will be submitted to '

    What's This SELF Government?

    ‘*As many of you already know, Haverford’s Board
    of Managers recently approved the Students’ Council
    proposals concerning the -elimination of hours for.
    women in the Haverford dorms,’’

    _ So began the policy non-statement signed by Jane
    Janover, out-going Self-Gov president, and distributed
    on the Bryn Mawr campus Monday. It is a policy
    non-statement, because it explicitly calls itself a
    “request ... instead ... of a policy statement,” and
    was characterized by a member of Executive Board
    as being simply a ‘‘stop-gap measure’? until the new
    board takes over. However, we see it as very clearly
    a@ policy statement. It seems quite evident by the
    wording that any girl who signs out overnight to
    Haverford will be tried for violating the Honor Sys-
    tem, exactly as it was before the Haverford changes
    -- and this seems very much like a policy to us.

    This Self-Gov statement affirming the past in spite
    of present changes is justified by members of Exec
    Board in two ways. One, because they didn’t want to
    force an already formulated policy onto the new Board
    as a fait accompli; and two, because they see things
    at Haverford as being so chaotic and uncertain with
    respect to the interpretations of thé changes that
    they don’t want to interject anything which might
    ‘wreck it for them,’? In other words, they acted as
    they did out of consideration for the new Board and
    for Haverford College.

    We would like to put in a few words for the group
    apparently ignored (which is also the group most af-
    fected by the statement): Bryn Mawr students. We
    find neither of the two justifications in the above
    /paragraph strong enough to rationalize the creation
    of the statement without the student body’s knowledge
    or help, It seems that it was done in a manner just
    about as far from the idea of self-government as it
    is possible to get.

    We are not here suggesting what Bryn Mawr’s
    reply to the Haverford changes should be. We are
    merely suggesting that although Haverford Students’
    ,, Council should certainly be told of Self-Gov activities
    (Council President Gene Ludwig has even proposed
    that a member of Haverford Council sit in on Self-
    Gov meetings and vice versa to improve communica-
    _ tions) ‘there was no need to tell them prior to telling
    . Bryn Mawr students (also according to Ludwig, the
    _ Situation over there is not so confused as Self-Gov
    - seems to think). And even more importantly, the
    - whole idea of Bryn Mawr students simply being
    - TOLD something by Self-Gov is contrary to its pur-
    - 908es as an organization. _ :

    There doesn’t seem to be any reason why a sys-
    em similar to the Haverford Plenary Sessions could
    10t be set up here, Hopefully, this is what will be
    _Jone by the new Board when it is ready to make its

    2 to the Haverford . Only in this

    were flagrantly defying the govern-
    ment; rather they were making
    ‘personal decisions about the kind
    of people they ‘wanted to be and
    the amount of protection they felt
    they wanted from the government.

    We felt a government imposing
    more rules would be defeating its
    own purpose. Therefore, while
    trying to keep the constitution
    simple, we attempted to give the
    individual more personal respon-
    sibility to make her own decisions,
    yet retain a respect for the mem-
    bers of the college and commun-
    ity. The system does ask for trust
    in our fellow students, but that is
    asked in any working honor sys-
    tem, and certainly in any work-
    ing community. /

    To the Editor:
    The Bryn Mawr Chapter of the
    Association of American Univer-
    sity Professors wishes to express
    its support for student activities,
    such as those undertaken by the
    -Educational Goals Committee last
    fall. Although there is a difference
    of opinion among chapter members
    about the individual proposals made
    at that time, we endorse the stu-
    dents’. concern with matters of cur-
    riculum and other educational
    goals. We feel that such openly ex-
    pressed concern reflects a sense
    of responsibility among the stu-
    dents, and affords an example of
    democratic procedure in education.

    Responsibility — Ta orth tata ns com
    To the Editor: munity within that system. If we

    have made some error in our
    judgment of student readiness
    for changes, I still do not think
    we should be condemned for pro-
    posing -them. Only in consider-
    ing change do some realize the
    validity of the status quo, and
    only in considering change do we
    give that change the possibility of
    becoming the new status quo.

    - As chairman of the Constitu-
    tional Revision Committee, I feel
    compelled to answer some of the
    letters in the NEWS and some
    comments heard around campus
    to the effect that the work of our
    committee was irresponsible and
    not representative of the student
    body. The committee was elected
    this fall by the dormitories, which

    should and did lead to a diverse ‘ere towne ot
    group. We have been meeting for 8
    a few hours on a weekly basis for Dinner system

    a semester, during which time our
    constitution has been dissected
    and. put back together.

    Before we even considered
    changes, we examined the role of
    Self-Gov as our governing body,
    and the kind of constitution it should
    have. to make it most efficient and .
    powerful. Looking at the constitu-
    tion, we discovered that most of
    its rules required acts of common
    sense, not honor, nor responsibil-
    ity, (e.g. the after dark rules), As
    we. consider our community to be
    under a social honor system, we
    felt the basis of it must lie in
    personal responsibility of the in-
    dividual to the community.

    It is essential to the success
    of any government that the rules
    express the will of its members.
    Looking at our student body we
    could only see a trend of apathy
    towards the government and an
    unopposed disregard for many of
    its rules. However the students
    did not feel particularly that they

    To the Editor:

    With several commendable ex-
    ceptions, attendance at the Dinner
    System meetings during the recent
    elections was uncomfortably. low.
    This system which puts the can-

    touch. with each other and the is-
    sues at hand is one of the pri-
    vileges of a small college com-
    munity. It should be recognized
    as such - and furthermore, treated
    as such, Or, at the very least,
    it deserves a careful evaluation
    before it is modified or abolished.

    There has been no formal pro-
    posal concerning the Dinner Sys-
    tem, no inquiry into its usefulness
    nor. suggestion that it should be
    changed. But a time for such
    questioning is definitely at hand.

    As one who is about to leave
    the office of President of Under-
    grad, I would like to subniit an
    idea to be considered by the new
    ‘tregime”. I think one of those

    Film Group Begins Casting
    For Black and White Short

    The Bryn Mawr. film group
    is now in the process of choosing
    a cast for a fifteen minute black
    and white film to be shown hope-
    fully in early May.

    Steve Magers, a junior at
    Haverford, has contributed orig-
    inal screenplay--that is a“shot
    by shot analysis of the movie,
    since while’ there will be sound,
    music and even perhaps words,
    there will be no dialogue as such.
    The plot revolves around the
    emotional crisis of a college girl.

    This will be a 16 mm movie--.

    movies, and 35 mm commercial
    films, The camera belongs to Miss
    Ann Kish, director of the Arts
    Forum, who is acting as advisor.

    financed by Arts Council and should
    cost about $200 to produce,

    ~Draws Students,

    “by Kathy Murphey
    Pressures on the university

    cussed by students, faculty,
    and administration from Bryn
    Mawr and other colleges at ‘an
    Alliance conference on education
    held in Erdman last Saturday.

    The conference began with
    a morning session on the issue of
    how the university reflects the
    problems, needs, and prejudices
    of society. A panel moderated

    ~ by Miss McPherson and consisting

    of Miss McBride, Mr. Phillip Lich-
    tenberg of the School of
    Social Work, Father McAnalty,
    President of Duquesne University,
    and Martin Kenner, a student at
    the New School of Social Research,

    ' Opened the discussion.

    2

    ‘The panel agreed that society
    has come to exert more and more

    influence on the university. Miss.

    McBride pointed out that colleges
    may have taken up programs such
    as training mentally retarded
    children. However, service de-
    mands. may divert the university
    from its real purpose, which is the
    education of its students, Mr. Lich-
    tenberg also emphasized the
    danger of overplaying the service
    role of the university to society.
    Diversity in a liberal arts college
    is necessary, and it must beware

    .of too much concentration on vo-

    cational training, or on polit-

    ical involvement.

    Martin Kenner stated that
    students are beginning to object
    to the pressure of a politically
    biased society. which does not con-
    sider Marxism an academic sub-
    ject. At the same time, students
    are seeking in their subjects’ a
    relevance to the political problems
    confronting them in society. They
    would like an economics course,

    for example, to probe the reasons

    why two-thirds of the world is

    _ impoverished when we live in such



    a technically able society.

    The afternoon panel, moderated
    by Mr. Wallace MacCaffrey, pro-
    essor of History at Haver-
    ford, and membered by Mrs.
    Marshall, Miss Rosemary Lauer,
    a former graduate student at St.
    John’s University and now at
    Bryn Mawr, Marvin Wachman,
    President of Lincoln University,
    and Kathy Murphey, a Bryn Mawr
    sophomore, picked up the



    morning’s discussion on the point
    of student pressure on the uni-
    versity.

    It was thought among the au-
    dience - as well as ‘among
    those on the. panel, that
    communication should be opened
    up between student, faculty, and
    administration. Channels for stu-
    dent influence on the decisions
    of the university should be widened.
    However, once a concern with
    student opinion is demonstrated,
    student initiative must be
    expressed, As Miss McPherson
    pointed out from the audience,
    Adlai Stevenson said once, ‘‘It’s
    much easier to fight for ideals
    than ‘to live by them.’? When Mrs.
    Michels suggested monthly meet-
    ings of the entire student
    body where all could give con-
    structive | criticism and ideas
    about the curriculum and other
    college issues, the audience broke
    into applause.

    THE COLLEGE NEWS _

    Friday, March 10, 1967 | q



    by Marcia Ringel

    The most remarkable thing
    about Haverford Class Night is
    its distinctively masculine flavor.
    Pungent wine and rancid, sweet
    cream and sour, somehow
    it usually remains intense enough
    to excite our appetites and as
    a whole to satisfy them.

    Freshman Weekend dates en-

    sconced last Friday evening

    in Roberts Hall were treated to
    such a display of audience energy
    as is rare at even a spectator-
    sport college like Haverford. Im-
    passioned Fords threw kisses,

    hisses, and a myriad of paper
    _airplanes_at. the several casts;

    whose job was to render scripts
    of varying value, the least valuable
    being the sophomores’ un-
    imaginative ‘‘Intermissions,’”’ an
    adaptation from Lewis Carroll
    with an unimpressive Alice. Sadly,
    no one was. quite mad enough--

    not even quite so mad as most

    of the characters in the other
    three plays.

    The freshman onterhn, **Funny,
    You Don’t Look Jewish, Gross-
    man !”? provided, in the tradition
    of Haverford freshman offerings,

    a dean scene, wombat combat,
    and a poignant Barclay room. A
    ‘‘Bratman” story, it was lent
    sweetness and light by Alexis
    Swan. (Boy Faggot), who won. the
    Best Actress award--an interest-
    ing development since last
    year, when Cile Yow (Bryn Mawr
    *67) was voted Best Actor. (Judges
    are an unpublicized panel of pro-
    fessors.)

    “Howdy: A Warm Welcome’’
    dealt subtly and cleverly in sym-
    bols to tell’ what the juniors

    ‘think of Haverford’s expansion

    program. Buffalo Bob(Dean Lyons)
    plans to take over the Howdy Doody
    Show by overcrowding the Peanut
    Gallery (dorms), making a droll

    Chief Thunderthud. his Provost, _

    and so on. Having destroyed show
    and showmen, BB warns us
    that we alone are left to challenge
    his authority and have 36 hours
    to leave (expulsion), He is
    carried stiffly away.as he was
    carried on, a puppet like the rest.
    Foggy and the Mouseketeers were
    miraculous, and Dennis Lanson
    won Best Actor as Howdy.

    ‘*Gullible’s Trips, or Super-
    market Sell-Out’’ won the
    Class of 67 the coveted Best Play

    award for the second year ina row,

    “a feat never before accomplished
    in the history of Haverford

    College,’’ according to the playbill..

    Fairy Modmother, attractively
    garbed and unattractively over-
    acting, shows Jimmy _ that
    **you can’t escape the system’? as
    he had hoped in the beginning of
    his Haverford career--a sober-

    ing enough thought, considering
    that these authors and actors are

    Night: If Lyons Can Take It, Anyone Can

    soon to be systematized. Alice
    Leib’s terrifying LSD chor-
    eography won a_ special com-
    mendation from the judges
    and a deserved ovation from the
    audience, since it was easily the
    most professional part of the even-
    ing. A huge Michelangelo set
    (decals?) was truly magnificent.

    As usual, two. plays were
    fair, two were fine. The three that
    focused on college life were best.
    Why were they increasingly pessi-
    mistic and depressing? And
    convincing?

    All four choréographers for
    Class Night were Bryn Mawr
    girls of the appropriate classes.
    Girls were featured prominently

    . in all ‘but the freshman play. Yet
    that masculine touch mercifully

    survived. Even the faculty skit

    _ (whose point totally escaped me),

    including only one woman, bore the
    air of an all-male classroom.
    If some ofthe undergraduates’
    lines bore the air of an all-male
    restroom, what of it? They love
    it, it’s their tradition; and if poor
    Dean Lyons can take it, anyone can,
