Barnard Bulletin issued semi weekly during the college year by the Undergraduate Association. Entered as second class matter October 19, 1928 at New York Post Office under the 1879 act.
Editorial urges Barnard undergraduates to engage in a campus fund-raising campaign supporting the $240,000 land purchase west of Fiske Hall. It stresses student involvement as crucial to attracting outside funding and as a test of maturity and civic responsibility for Barnard’s future leaders.
A Barnard College appeal urges alumni and students to donate to the Student Fellow fund to send a Barnard representative abroad next year. Despite pledges reaching into tens of dollars, about $400 remains to be raised, with emphasis on mobilizing the indifferent and elusive donors who can contribute as a token or larger gift. The piece frames the fund as a peace action and a measure of Barnard's seriousness in international understanding.
A collection of examples shows characters with eyes described in varied ways. The piece notes Martha Berry College Georgia restricting dances to waltzes and quadrilles and limiting Sunday dates to ninety minutes, radios, and intercollegiate sports, plus a quip about a student writer naming a paper Knight Life but backing out.
Letters discuss using a curve in marking and the fate of pluses and minuses. Opinions range from expanding curve use to abolishing embellishments, with calls for official recognition and comparisons across courses and years.
Wynn presents Alice Takata a muddled Hungarian drama with a promising start but weak development on mercy killing. Mady Christians clings to passive roles while Russel Hardie faults archaic delivery. audience reaction is tepid and the show likely fails to reach Broadway.
The review lauds Myra Hess for a powerful yet delicate technique blending precision and grace. It notes ambitious program including Bach Fantasia, Schumann Albumblatter, Brahms variations, Beethoven Sonata Op 31 No 2, plus Scarlatti and Schubert pieces. Minor flaws appear in Brahms and Beethoven passages, but overall performance thrills a full Town Hall audience and promises a future recital.
The League of Composers plans the second pi hearing of new works by young composers on Sunday January 23 at 5 PM at Community Center 93 Pat Avenue. The program includes pieces by Gershensch, Talma, Heilner, Siegmeister and Fiorillo with piano solos, voice items, and chamber music.
