League Plans
Total Council
Re-Structure
By PEGGY GREENBERG
League Council members have
approved a re-structuring of the
League Council.
In order to implement ideas for
better League organization, the
membership of the Executive
Council will be changed. The office
of president will be retained. Four
vice-presidents will take the place
of the present first and second
vice-presidents, the secretary and
the treasurer.
The vice-president in charge of
committees will have the same
duties as this year's first vice-
president. The vice-president in
charge of finance will serve as a
financial advisor to the other
members of the executive board
and the committees and will have
an assistant.
New Office Created
Brainchild of the revamping
committee is the new office of
vice-president in charge of co-
ordination. She will coordinate the
activities and try. to integrate the
projects of the League with Pan-
hellenic Association, the Assembly
Association, the Women's Athletic
Association and Student Govern-
ment Council.
The vice-president in charge of
class projects will act as an "as-
sistant social director" for the
class projects of Soph Show, Junior
Girls Play and Senior Night. She
will have office hours, attend cen-
tral committee meetings and
handle such things as tickets, pro-
grams and make-up for the com-
mittees,
Add Committee
Freshman Projects will be a new
committee to be added this fall.
The chairman will serve as chair-
man of the Burocats, a freshman
committee, and as "social director"
for Frosh Weekend.
A fixed policy for the Interview-
ing and Nominating Committee
has been set. After this spring peti-
tioning period, Executive Council
offices will be open to senior wom-
en only. All committee chairman-
ships will be open to junior
women only, except in instances
deemed 'special' by the committee
and except in the cases of chair-
men of the Interviewing and
Nominating Committee and of
Women's Judiciary Council, senior
positions.
Bobbie Maier, '59, president of
the Women's League, in explain-
ing the reason for this policy noted
the difficulty each year in getting
senior officers who have had pre-
vious League experience. With this
system there will be more re-
sources for officers.
Within the committee structure
there will be several changes in
the constitutional duties and func-
tions'of several of the committees.
Major changes occur in the Special
Projects Committee and in the
House Committee.
Special Duty
The assistant chairman of the
Special Projects Committee will be
in charge of Homecoming Week-
end. She will petition specifically
for this position.
The House Committee, previous-
ly assigned only to cooperate with
the business manager of the
League in decorating the League
building, now has new duties.
The committee shall determine'
the conduct policy for the Under-
graduate Office of the League,
shall be the Historian of the
League and shall suggest housing
improvements to be recommended
to the Board of Governors. The
assistant chairman will be in
charge of the League library.

LATIN AMERICA-Objects from Latin American countries are
displayed in the Ann Arbor High School Library. The various
items are contributed by University international students and
are displayed in partial conjunction with student lectures to the
high school's international relations class.
HIgh School Features
International Students
(.
International students at the
University have been participating
in two projects at the Ann Arbor
high school this semester.
Several students have addressed
a predominantly senior class on
international relations at tie high
school. The class is conducted by
David March, history instructor,
and arrangements for the speakers
have been made through Miss
Helen Tjotis of the International
Center.
The students have received these
talks by visiting students "very
well", March said. The visitors dis-
cuss the development of their na-
tive land since World War II and
its relations with the United States
since that time.
Several of them bring slides to
the class. Following the lecture a
brief question and answer period
is held.
Among the visitors who have al-
ready spoken to the class are Dr.
German DeLarrea, Grad., Lucia
Alvez, Grad., Nilda Ormaechea,
Grad., Brian Parker, Grad., and
Daniel Degois, Grad.
Partially coordinated with the
classroom lectures is a library dis-
play of items from various foreign
countries. International students
bring the display objects into Miss
Tjotis who then arranges the dis-
play case in the high school li-
brary. Tunisian, Iranian and Latin
American exhibits have been
shown this year.
The displays are not entirely co-
ordinated with the international
relations class topics because of
the difficulty in gathering ma-
terial for the case, Miss Tjotis ex-
p,lained.
Some of the displays have been
shown in the International Center
hall following removal from the
high school.

A long-range program has been the University community and the
Spring Trip
All ski enthusiasts, from be-
ginners to experts, will be able to
whiz down the Aspen, Colo., slopes
at reduced rates during spring
vacation, Phyllis Bronstein, '61,
UL~LR Ski Club publicity chair-
man,announced recently.
"Although final costs have not
been set, we estimate automobile
transportation, chair lift tickets,
food and lodging in kitchen-
equipped cabins and three days of
lessons to total less than $100,"
Miss Bronstein explained.
The Ski Club has made the
spring pilgrimage to Aspen sev-
eral times in the past and has
sponsored several other trips to
Sun Valley, Idaho; Boyne and
Caberfae, Mich., and Stowe, Vt.

Senior Night
To Be Held
Senior Night, the annual gath-
ering of women of the senior class,
P will begin at 5:45 p.m. March 18
on the diag in front of the Gener-
al Library.
The women will march en masse
to the League, accompanied by a
small campus band for dinner in
the League Ballroom and the open-
ing night performance of' Junior
Girls Play at the Lydia Mendels-
sohn Theatre.
After dinner, the seniors will
present a program of skits taken
from their class' Frosh Weekend,
Soph Show and JGP performances
& and the traditional "declaration of
status" ceremony around the wish-
ing well.
In the fceremony, all married,
members of the class must blow
out a candle, engaged women suck
on a lemon, safety pins are giv-
to those who are "pinned" and stu-!
dents now going steady receive a
cork to remind them to "keep plug-
ging."
All unattached women must
throw a penny into the wishing
well for each year of their age.
After witnessing this year's jun-
ior class presentation of JGP, the
seniors will gather to sing a song
dedicated to next year's senior
public in general," the new pro-
gram will include exhibits of engi-
neering advances in recent years
and guest speakers,
Generates Idea
"The idea for Engineer's Week-
end was mainly generated by the
three-day open house in the archi-
tecture and design school last year'
and by Engineer's Week or Week-
ends held at Cornell, Minnesota,
Nebraska and Michigan Tech,"
central committee publicity direc-
tor Charles Hildebrandt, '59E, said
yesterday.
Approximately 100 industrial
firms have been invited to set up
demonstrations and exhibits in
conjunction with the student pro-
ject.
Technical honorary societies and
engineering school chairmen also
have been contacted to discuss
setting up exhibits.
Shoulder Costs
The Engineering Council and the
Michigan Technic have said they
would shoulder the costs needed
to finance the project.
The central committee, charged
with setting up the elaborate pro-
gram, is looking into the possillity
of using one floor of the Univer-
sity parking structure to house
some of the exhibits.
Besides the exhibits, Hildebrandt
said the committee would also co-
ordinate engineering events that
already occur in the spring so
that they will take place during
the Engineer's Weekend.
These include class elections,
honorary initiations and the fresh-
man-sophomore Tug-O-War. Sev-
eral other events that may also be
scheduled include guest speakers,
and special lectures by faculty
members.
