Of all the Utopian conceptions in history, he said, the Garden of Eden was the only one fully realized, because men have always preferred to take their chances with the existing scheme of things rather than construct a new form of society. Utopian concepts from the Promised Land to the League of Nations have cap- tured man's imagination, personified his protest, but out- distanced attainment. However, Mr. Seng warned, modern technology has given us the means not only to revolutionize men's thought but to end it. For this reason society must find a new Utopia, a new way of dealing with its problems. He pointed out that we must learn to see all news events as one story, not as separate stories. The rising nations of Africa and the segregation problem in the South are not two stories but one, he stated, and they in turn are related to the O. A. S. terrorism in Algeria, and to Hitler's campaign to exterminate the Jews during World War II. "We need to end our insufferable national moral rectitude, which assumes no way of life is as good as OUl own," Mr. Seng said. He said the main problem of the world is economic, the problem of the Haves and the Have Nots. He said a solution to the economic problem would pave the way for easing of the three related problems of nationalism, racism and war. In the discussion period which followed the introductory session there was concern for the emergence of PETER J. SENG the African nations, for the unrest in South America, for the future of the U.

ROBERTA NEWTON BLANCHARD, Class of 1921; who for forty-one years has served the Alumnae Association in numerous capacities; as Boston Club President and class officer, as Association President, and as Alumnae Trustee; still shares with all members her creative talent, flair for the dramatic, wit and charm, while carrying out her alumnae activities with effective ease and assurance. EMILY WARNER, Class of 1925; as President of the Alumnae Association, Alumnae Trustee, Chairman of the Finance Committee, organizer of the Rochester Club, active club worker in New York and Cleveland, and class president; has brought to all her many offices good judgment, wise counsel and great administrative competence - qualities which continue to strengthen and benefit our Alum- nae Association.

~(W HEN Miss Bethurum came to Connecticut College as chairman in 1940, she was faced by a challenge of unenviable proportions: it was her lot to follow in the footsteps of John Edwin Wells, a scholar of the old school, redoubtable and authoritarian, an expert and indefatigable historian of literature. She made it her task to reshape our English offerings in line with a revolution which was taking place at that time and which radically shifted the balance from the historical to the critical approach to literature. This she was able to do superbly, for, besides being a most able administrator, she is a combination of perceptive and sensitive critic and thoroughly grounded historian, as her recent brilliant critical articles on Chaucer and her definitive edition of Wulfstan respectively make very clear. Thus while the department under her direction adjusted to an era of criticism - and more than merely adjusted, too; it marched steadily forward - it did not go to the extreme of renouncing its heritage of historical scholarship. "Alumnae who have studied under Miss Bethurum or know her otherwise will not need to be told that she is en exciting person intellectually and a delightful and charming friend. To her students she has always been a sort of goddess, but a most approachable one. And she has always been the focus of a department that has lots of fun together." DOROTHY BETHURUM H. M.
