Editorial board announces editor Rubinstein outlines priorities for the Barnard Bulletin. Fioka Ginsbi RG Fvetys Hoore ARA PONCHELET Mutprato contribute to forthcoming issues.
The Curriculum Committee presents a series of reports arguing for dynamic study programs. Faculty student cooperation and undergraduate critiques are urged to keep courses aligned with evolving academic needs. The reports favor more seminars and flexible graduate electives, clearer course descriptions, and stronger freshman academic orientation.
A two story residence built with thirteen inch concrete floors required days of drilling for wiring. An elderly owner installed a keyed elevator and locked staircases. The single closet stores 50th Anniversary Fund Literature, while rooms now serve as offices for English French and Government departments. The former laundry area became the Speech Room reflecting changing uses.
The old lady who rents Barnard's tennis courts faces social scrutiny over a plan to host tennis parties with male guests. A暖 collection of letters and comments debates practicality and propriety, while the property finances fund taxes and skating-season profits.
The passage reflects on aging furniture in a residence, a lily pond conversion, and blue morning glories at tennis courts. It notes a will favoring St. Luke's Hospital, plans for a spring fundraiser, and mixed opinions from students about a proposed activity near Barnard with limited participation and a sense of change.
A Riverside Drive corner house built by Mrs Fitzgerald in her eighty third year features sixteen inch thick double walls and two large cellars furnaces to guard against the north wind. The single north facing window sits at a staircase landing, amid a study by Miss Helen Stevens for the Dean.
A April 26 Carnegie Hall performance of Verdi Requiem conducted by Antonio Brico impressed with musical beauty and dramatic reach. A 285 voice mixed chorus, four soloists, and the Women's Symphony Orchestra supported NYU Men's Chapel Choir and four Brico ensembles. The audience stayed quiet after the final Libera me as Brico signaled no applause.
Critics found the program showed modern music remains unevenly accepted by Columbia students. Chelimsky and Marting offered contrasting string work while Lubin and Sholand presented mixed results with piano roles. Exner madrigal and Abbot carols added balance as Gore provided robust choral color and virile harmonies.
A fast moving Strand melodrama features Ronald Reagan and Gloria Blondell, with a plot about an insurance adjuster framed by his wife and a racketeering scheme. The film leans on a routine plot while highlighting Blondell’s resemblance to Joan Blondell and a subplot about fake accident testimony.
Thomas Mann will conclude his first transcontinental lecture in the United States at Carnegie Hall on Friday evening May 6. He will speak on The Coming Victory of Democracy, his only public appearance in News.
