RHOADS ROCKEFELLER tjROM the Halls of Rockefeller to the arch of Pembroke West — brilliant lyrics from our Freshmen Show adapted to the Marine Hymn — could be heard any evening ringing from any one of the dining room windows on Bryn Mawr Campus. At the slightest provocation we sent forth our voices in song, chanting the praises of Sunday morning breakfast, ice cream, or the good Spirit of the Red . The halls of residence were not just places where we hung our hats. Rhoads, Rockefeller, Merion, Denbigh, the Pembrokes, Radnor — each had its own distinctive personality. Pembroke owned the Arch where on many a warm rainy night we collected with our little red books and our song mistress and sang the college glees. Other times we crowded together on the Pem stairs, some superstitiously, with the orals on the morrow; some remembering with utter relief that they had passed. Denbigh vied with Pembroke in its musical prowess, but the atmosphere was different as we sat on its stairs after dinner with demitasses in hand and tried to master the fine art of Shall I Wasting in four elusive parts. Those of us who were not bilingual got our opportunity to visit the language houses only when accompanied by an adult member of their exclusive retinue. We were always much impressed, if not a bit awed, by the fact that ici on parle toujours francais ou espanol ou deutsch at bridge and all other times during meals, coffee, or just polite social chit- chat. We tried our best to get absorbed in the continental atmosphere, but we must admit that we felt keenly our cul- tural deficiencies. We admired, however, our versatile con- temporaries. Speaking of admiration, we can ' t forget Rockefeller. The Rock smoking rooms were filled with academics, who were, nevertheless, always ready to have a gay old time. There was an old world atmosphere about Rock. It wouldn ' t have surprised us to see a flaming boar ' s head or a cup of mead come in at meal time amidst a festive throng. In the same vein their Christmas plays were the envy of the campus. Page eight
