SOUT H AFRICA:
Mien Cit
(EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the
last of a fIve-part series on foreign
education.)
By GLORIA BOWLES
A United States moving slowly
toward integration in its schools
can see in the Union of South Af-
rica an example of exactly oppo-
site policy, Donald Allen, a South
African graduate student at the
University, noted.
There are eight universities in
South Africa confined by law to
white students. Apartheid policies
were appliedin university educa-
tion with the 1959 passage of the
Extension of University Education
Act.
Adverse reaction to apartheid
policies, which envision a separa-
tion of the Bantus and other non-
Europeans from the white com-
munity, seems to come from both
sides.
Students Campaign
"There were all kinds of dem-
onstrations at my school by white
students campaigning for an in-
tegrated system," Allen said.
"When they're demonstrating
in large groups, many of my
friends seemed to want to go to
school with the Negroes. But after
the demonstration, when you talk
to them individually, they seem to
feel differently."
More conclusive is the Negro
desire for integrated education.

touch. Miss Kelly, however,
projected just what she was: a
socialite with Main Line back-
ground and breeding whom no
possible emotion or situation
could force to abandon her role
of perfect lady. She possessed
a compelling aristocratic beau-
ty, quiet poise, and a cool re-
finement that women wished to
emulate and, men to conquer.
Dare we hint that the sum of
these estimable characteristics
could not entirely prevent her
performances from seeming
vapid? Be that as it may, her
insuperable tranquility enabled
her to survive the adulation of
her public and the not particu-
larly tasteful publicity of MGM,
seizing avidly the coincidences
between her marriage and her
last movie.
The Swan is based on an
amusing and skillful Molnar
satire, dealing with one of his
favorite subjects, Central Eu-
ropean aristocracy in the dec-
ade before the first World War.
Like many of his generation,
Molnar thought of this nostal-
gically as the twilight of a great
era, and this emotion infuses
the comedy with an aroma of
romantic sentiment and an un-
stated but permeating irony.
The whip of time has. driven us
so far that we perceive only in
their most superficially enter-
taining aspects the comedies of
the Austrian school. The dra-
mas of Schnitzler, Wedekind,
Hofmannsthal do not have
even this possibility of appeal
in our atomic age.
We can be grateful, then, for
a sympathetic production of a
fine minor work of an almost
unknown school. Dory Shary's
production allows full scope for
his talented performers. Grace
Kelly is very well cast as the
virginal princess, whose domi-
neering mother (Jessie Royce
Landis) orders a household tu-
tor (Louis Jourdan) to make
love to her, when the interest
of a jaded visiting prince (Alec
Guinness) appears to be fal-
tering. Brian Aherne appears as
a sophisticated monk. It is dif-
ficult to imagine that Agnes
Moorehead could take second
