Last Tuesday evening in
Roberts Hall, Julius Katchen
played to an enthusiastic audience in the first of his summer eerier. of piano recitals.
Although a large proportion of
the expected student attendance
was cut down because of the
conflicting softball games, the
deficit was more than made up
for by a large off-campus turnout.
After a spirited performance
of the "Star Spangled Banner," Katchen opened his program with "Three Sonatas,"
by Scarlatti. The first of the
group was pastoral in character, and he played it simply but
expressively. He also displayed e rich depth of feeling, and
his tone was well controlled.
The last two of the group, In
contrast, required great technical skill, and Mr. Ketehen
succeeded in giving them clear
and sparkling interpretatione.
There were several ingtances
where he might have used
shading to a little more advantage, however, in the last
sonata of the group.
The "Chromatic Fantasy and
Puglia." by Bach, the next
number on the "program. was
his beet of the evening. In
this work Katchen was given
the opportunity to display all
the- emotion and pathos of
which he is capable. In this
he succeeded admirably. Each
climax was Skillfully built up,
each contrast handled effectively, and each note was injected with intenae feeling. The
cheer power and drama of the
work was overwhelming. The
composer was years ahead of
his time when he wrote it. The
fugue left nothing to be desired,' Katchen's technique was
clear and well controlled. Here
were Bach and Ketehen, both
et their beet, and the audience
could not help but be inspired.
The next work en the program was the "Sonata Op.
110." by Betho-een, conaidered
by many to be one of his meet
beautiful sonatas. Contrary to
custom, it consists of only three
movement,. In this work,

During the first decade of the twentieth century
a system involving pereonel and enrol honor in
scholastic examinations and queues wee instituted
at Haverford College. And at thnt time it probably

was new and untried. Some forty peen have

is not scoffed at or ronaidered the pipe dreams of
children. Every aiumnos and every faculty seemlier of Hai...orient College in those forty yeses knows
what that system of seliolastic honesty meant to
him; and anybody who knew anything about Haverford College knew about that scholastic berme
system. But forty yearn is a long enough time to
think that honor to only a term involving sebolaetic
-work. Forty years is long enough to uphold a
seholastic honor aye ten. and yet break rules and
regulations of the college. The students now at
Haverford are tired of seeing rules broken without
the slightest pang of conecienew—rules decreed by
the administration or comprOmise rules accepted
by other Students' Amociatioue. They want to extend Fleverford's system 111 homer to everything on
the campus. And by this will they be making things
easier for themselves? No deep research in necessary to arrive at the antwer. Wax it easier to
cheat under the old Honor System than under the
aerial proctor system? Not And that same gumdoe asked of the proposed over-an Honor System
receives the flame answer In the negative. And it
will work succesaftilly because its "atanderda of
behavior" are formulated by the students; the
System is their creation and their reeporsaibilitr.
Those who are smirching for reasons to veto thin
proposal manage to pick, warm-up, and tone out for
consumption the argument that this is not the time
for any such move—that Haeerford's liandards are
below those of the an-called pre-war years and that
oedemas, in the immediate post-war years who will
hare experienced the horror* of battle will not be
'able to !Comply with these `standards of behavior,'
But even the most optimistic know that the number of war veterans returning to college will be
small. And even the majority of three will be
former Haverford students. They win not be devoid
of their former prineiples. And finally, the Office
of Admissions is the same new as it was before
the war. Its reamireeleete are still high, end if
anything, they will probably be higher after the
war.
As one Haverford professor remarked last week,
"The present freshman clam ii probably the nucleus
of post-war leaverflord." They bare imbibed far
more of Haverford spirit, customs, and ideals than
any other Room, of students in so abort a periodThey appear to be able to distinguish right from
wrong, and they agree that the proposed Honor
System is a. step in the right direction. Yea, there
is no time quite like the present.
'
Net areeester, many of us who have spent long
hours thrashing out the points in this system will
no longer be at Haver-ford. But others of um will
remain. And those of us who do remain will not
forget this proposed Honor System. Thie is not

ment of College life with the
sad plight to which the College
has now sunk. One goes to the
campus on Friday night and
sees the total student body
present. The library, when it
manages to get open, is cramped to the doors with busies-students. and every nook and cranny of every dorm is filled with
the sinister shapes of industrious students. For recreation of
a Friday night some of the
students wrestle with headlines
in the NEWS room, and others'
are busy In smoke-filled rooms
concocting revisions of the Honor System. The atmosphere is
one of intense concentration
and industry. Think bark, ye
sufferers, and weep!
Of course ell is not lost yet.

an insidious hold on some students, and other weak - willed

guise of strengthening the Honor System. But we are an indnstrioua youth, and not easily
