More than 130 former Mum-
fordites who are now freshmen
at the University of Michigan
received visits from several of
Mumford's counselors and de-
partment heads yesterday at
the Rackham Graduate Build-
ing.
These faculty members con-
duct this activity annually to
see how Mumfordites have ad-
justed to college life, to discuss
their attitudes toward the ef-
fectiveness of their high school
education, and to say "hello"
to their former students.
Each of the freshmen met
personally with former coun-
selors. They were also asked
to complete a questionnaire
asking for their opinions of
high school courses and which
ones they feel are particularly
valuable for college.
Upon completion of the in-
terviews, the counselors and de-
parment heads dined at the
Michigan Union as guests of
the university and were ad-
dressed by Dr. H. Harlan
Hatcher, president.
Similar conferences will be
held at Michigan State Univer-
sity on Nov. 16.
* * *

With the enlargement of
Mumford's American Field Serv-
ice program, two Mumfordites
will have the opportunity to
spend a summer in New Zea-
land as exchange students. All
applications for the New Zea-
land program will be handled
by the AFS Selection Commit-
tee. Interested students who are
in the 11th grade, and will be
16 years old by February,
should contact Dr. Edith Ko-
v a c h , language department
head.

Student Council members met
new teachers and chatted in-
formally with them at the Stu-
dent-Faculty Tea, last Tuesday.
In order to create as relaxed
an atmosphere as possible, the
students and teachers assem-
bled in the school library. Sand-
wiches and beverages were pro-
vided by the Student Council.
The program was under the
direction of Sue Rice and Gary
Gilbar, co-chairmen of the
Council's program committee.

A large crowd of enthusias-
titc Mumfordites watched the
Mustangs trounce Southeastern
in last Friday's football game
by the score of 26-6. Co-captain
Jim Hampton was responsible
for three Mustang touchdowns,
while Dick. Bockoff scored one.
The once-beaten Mustangs,
now tied for second place in
the East Side League with
Denby and Eastern, will meet
Northern in their last football
contest of the season at 3:30
p.m. on the Mumford field.

The third issue of Mercury
was distributed yesterday. The
Goodfellow Issue will be sold

will be given to the Goodfel-
low fund.

erts and Jerry Krandall, co-
