WINS WINTER PARKThe fame of Bruce Bairnsfather

and his "Old Bill" has been world-wide and it was to be expected thatWinter Park would turn out enmasse to see and hear him at Dor-othy Lockhart's Town Hall Serieson Tuesday night. But few knewthat they were to hear one of themost absorbing recitals of the hu-man side of war lightly camou-flaged under the entertaining storyof his cartoons.

Mr, Bairnsfather's strong, clearvoice was a delight. He talked fastard packed his lecture with anec-dotes that gave his audience newinsight and kept them raptly at-tentive. He revealed himself as notonly a humorist but a humanistwhose sympathies unerringly sensedthe fundamental importance of thecommon run of men who alwayshave had the burden of fighting theworld's wars.

Mr. Bairnsfather laughingly re-versed his title of creator of "OldBill", saying that it was "Old Bill"who created him. The cartoonist'sperception of a representative type,however, has a Shakespearian qual-ity about it that the world was notslow to recognize in spite of theobjection of those few Britisherswho at first objected to the "ridi-culing of our heroes",

Mr, Bairnsfather showed on thescreen many of his most famouscartoons and concluded his pro-gram by -drawing one of "Old Bill"as an "M.P." and one of WinstonChurchill, pointing out that thesame British characteristics wereto be found in both of them.

The great contribution the Apos-tle Paul made to Christianity washis doctrine of Christ's justificationby faith. Paul laid the foundationof the faith in Christ the Savior,and the importance of this ideamay be seen, that a revival of itbrought Luther's reformation andagain Wesley's conversion and thefounding of Methodism.

. John Wesley went beyond Lutherin applying Justification by faith—in an ethical sense—leading to hisemphasis on the doctrine of scrip-tural holiness.

HARVARD MEN HEARABOUT SEISMOLOGY

Some 35 Harvard men and theirguests turned out on New Year'sEve to attend a smoker of theHarvard Olub of Central Floridaat the Florida Power Corp. Lounge,and heard an interesting and ar-resting address by Prof. L. D. Leetof the Harvard Geology depart-ment, one of the nation's top seis-mologists.

Prof. Leet told his audience ofthe growing place of science in hu-man life, with particular referenceto World War II and the problemsof postwar peace. His remarks wereentitled "Science Becomes BigBusiness," and he listed some ofthe many important new applica-tions of scientific research in the,world today, stressing a new tech-nique in charting hurricanes bythe means of seismographs. Heexplained that the United Statesgovernment is arranging the es-tablishment of a series of seismo-logical stations around the hurri-cane area of toe Caribbean in thiswork, which is based on a newdiscovery in the field of weather,the fact that storms cause earthtremors.

Dr. Leet also spoke before theHarvard Clubs of Miami and Jack-sonville on his trip north throughFlorida from the Panama CanalZone, and one of his major sur-prises was the news that the U. S.Army Engineers will ask Congressto authorize a new sea level routefor the Panama Canal, to makethat waterway less vulnerable to

possible atomic bomb attack.President James W. Rankin in-

troduced the speaker. There werebuffet refreshments and a generaldiscussion period afterward. Prof.Leet worked on the atomic bombtest in New Mexico in 1945, andheld his Winter Park audiencespellbound with his account of thathistoric adventure in the field ofatomic fission. He expressed him-self as being pessimistic over theoutcome of any future war in whichatomic weapons might be em-ployed, but pointed out that noth-ing radically new to science wasinvolved in the creation of theatomic bomb, all of the major fac-tors having been worked out beforethe war, as he said.

CO-OPERATION, NOT COMPETITION IS KEYTO NEW WORLD SOCIETY, SAYS DR. SMITH

A large and appreciative audi-ence listened to Dr. Eugene Ran-dolph Smith on Monday evening,when he opened the CommunityLecture Series at the Congrega-tional Church, His subject, "RacialUnderstanding," is, as he said inhis introductory remarks, of para-mount importance in our world to-day, if we wish to have peace inthe world.

In. spite of thousands of years ofprogressive development towardcivilization, the rivalry for self-preservation, and racial preserva-tion, which characterized the caveman has continued on to our ownage. Only the saving spark of theidea that co-operation of individ-uals in a larger group could com-bat the antagonistic rivalries ofother groups has been fanned intothe present flame of altruism, inthe hearts of most people today.

To arrive at understanding, Dr.Smith emphasized, one must eval-uate rightly the causes of misun-derstanding, i.e., self-interest andfear, which breed suspicion andprejudice, not only racial but reli-gious and social. To attain under-standing, Dr. Smith, pre-eminentin his own field of education,stressed the need of a broader em-phasis in the field of education, inthe curriculum of both secondaryschools and universities, so thatyouth may be led to think object-ively and unselfishly, and so to livetogether co-operatively for the good•of the community.

The spoken word, the movies,the radio, the printed word, all areinfluences for good or evil in ourworld. And every citizen has pow-er over each of these media ofcommunication. Co-operation, notcompetition, is the keynote of thenew world society, whether it bein the ecumenical movement in

"The Late Christopher Bean,"scheduled for production at theAnnie Russell Theatre by the Rol-lins players on January 21, hasbeen a success in almost all coun-tries and all languages. The origi-nal play, "Prenez Garde a LaPeinture," by Rene Pauchois, wasused as a foundation for this mod-ern comedy by Sidney Howard,author of many successful playsincluding "The Silver Cord," and"They Knew What They Wanted."

The play tells the story of apainter who dies in a New Englandvillage leaving only a few dirtycanvases to likuidate his debts, in-cluding a docto's bill. The doctortakes the pictures and is onlymildly surprised when an old friendof the painter calls to pay the billand collect the canvases. Anotherold friend arrives and takes awaya few more. Then a New Yorkcritic comes and gathers a fewmomentos of his late dear acquain-tance. After that even the doctorbegans to take an interest in thesemuch-sought-after canvases andthe scramble for possession be-comes fast and furious,

"Christopher Bean" is being pro-duced by Wilbur Dorsett, a new-comer to the Rollins faculty, whois making his debut at the AnnieRussell with this play. Dorsett, in-structor in theatre arts, has had awide and varied experience in thetheatre. He is master of arts ofthe University of North Carolinawhere he also did his post-graduatework. He worked there for a timeas assistant to the technical di-rector, after which he was for twoyears director of the Raleigh LittleTheatre, at Raleigh, North Caro-lina.

In the intervals he worked atsummer theatres, being for sixyears technical director for theLost Colony and for one year di-rector of the New England Reper-tory at Maplewood, It will be inter-esting to see his treatment ofChristopher Bean.

As adapted by Sidney Howardthe play is purely American, Morethan that, it is regional, almost afolk play. It is being produced withan all-star or no-star cast. Theparts are almost equal in impor-tance except for Dr, Haggett andAbby to be played respectively by

ate in the semi-tropical settingthat central Florida offers. It mustbe emphasized that these wallcarvings (as well as the pave-ments) are not of cast concrete asis generally believed, but that eachpiece has been separately carvedwhile the mixture of sand and ce-ment is still soft enough to yield'to the sculptor's tools. But the in-evitable hardening of the concretein the space of a few hours imposesupon the sculptor the necessity ofworking rapidly and with an as-surance that will permit of no hesi-tation or revision.

The Research Studio Gallery isnow showing a newly hung exhi-bition, the third of its season, con-sisting of forty serigraphs (silkscreen prints) by two Californiaartists, Guy Maccoy and Geno Pet-tit. These prints which are pro-duced by a comparatively new me-dium of graphic expression offerthe gallery visitor an exceptionallycolorful treat in the variety of sub-ject matter as well as the techni-cal skill with which these printshave been created. The exhibitionwill continue through January.

If there are greater profits to be made for a community by MunicipalOwnership WHY do these communities all have to pay more for their elec-tricity than Winter Park does to the Florida Power Corp.?

Economical low rates and efficient maintenance have been establishedin Winter Park by the Florida Power Corporation which is under the regula-tion of the Federal Power Commission. What advantage could the consum-ers expect to get from making a change that would deprive them of thesafeguard of Federal supervision?

Dr. von Abele to Lecture onWorld Government through the U. N.

One of the most interesting of recent educa-tional developments is the formation of theRollins College Institute of World Government,which is . an outgrowth of the Rollins CollegeConference on World Government held lastMarch.

Dr. Holt was one of the earliest advocatesof world government. As early as 1903 hepointed out that all men were citizens of oneworld, and that without a world governmentinvested with power to enforce such laws as itmade, no lasting peace could be ensured. Itis characteristic of his lifelong work for peacethat he should establish at Rollins such afoundation as the Institute of World Govern-ment, and select Dr. Rudolph von Abele as its

T* B,.j i«», „ »i,oi director. Von Abele, who is 25, was activelyDr. Rudolph von Abele a s s o c i a t e d w l t h the s t u d ent Federalist move-ment. He received his doctorate from Columbia University and is theauthor of a brilliant biography of Alexander Hamilton Stephens, vice-president of the Confederacy. This is probably destined to become thestandard work, not only on Stephens, but also on the entire interior his-tory of the Confederate cabinet.

Dr. von Abele has achieved a national reputation in both letters andworld governmental policy.

At the end of the service the con-gregation were given lighted can-dles to carry home symbolizing thespread of Christianity throughoutthe world.

A very interesting letter was re-ceived by. the editor of Topics lastweek from Capt. and Mrs. GeorgeO. Gjoerloff, who have departedfor Washington after a visit withMi's, Gjoerloff's father, Mr. CharlesHyde Pratt and Mrs. Pratt of Via

. Tuscany. Capt. Gjoerloff was onthe carrier U. S. S. MakassarStrait last year, doing what heterms "magic carpet" duty betweenthe west coast and the Pacific Is-lands. He became commanding of-ficer of his ship in February and,in August left it, carefully "put upin mothballs" to start the transferto the east coast. They drove intheir new Dodge, by way of theColumbia River Old Oregon Trail—through the majestic RedwoodHighway to San Mateo for a visitwith Mrs. Gjoerloff's sister, theneast over the Sierras to exquisiteLake Tahoe, on to Great Salt Lake,the Rockies and Yellowstone Park."We often.spent the night in a log-cabin and cooked our meals on a

wood-burning range", say the Cap-tain and his wife, who are enthu-siastic about the whole experience.

At his new assignment Capt.Gjoerloff is taking a course in In-dustrial Mobilization . at the Col-lege of the Armed Forces in Wash-ington, and the couple were for-tunate in finding a lovely house at1030, 26th Street South, in Arling-ton.

We return your good wishes forthe coming- year, Capt. and Mrs.Gjoerloff, and hope that your nextmove will be south!
