THE MICHIGAN, AL TALLY ....... Mary Tower, Panhel Ex-President,Surveys Sorority System, Sees Need for Change Engineering Council To Hold Exhibits, Tours for Laymen By PEGGY GRFENBERG "I've been an office, office girl for too long," she said as she en- tered the Panhellenic office for about the three hundredth time in two years. Suggesting that her picture be taken outside, Mary Tower, '59, ex-president of Panhellenic Asso- ciation, said, "I'm always photo- graphed at my desk. I could sit in a tree and eat daisies," she added. Referring to the previous re- mark, Miss Tower noted she has spent much of her four years at the University in an office, to be exact, that of Panhellenic. She pledged Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority during her first term, and that February she was elected to the presidency of Junior Panhellenic. As a member of Pan- helleic, Miss Tower has wbrked under three presidents. She was elected -second vice-president in her junior year and served this past year as president. As for her knowledge, experience with and understanding of this organiza- tion, "She's been in Panhellenic since the year '01," one 'of her sorority sisters says. Move Made Change In discussing Panhellenic, and she usuall does, Miss Tower not- ed the change in outlook that she has seen within her experience with the group. "A combination of moving out of the League in 1957 and into the SAB brought about a change. "As . the organizations moved out of the League they became somewhat independent of their former ties." Previous to the move, Miss Ethel McCormick had coordinated the activities of all the organizations. . Prof. Lippitt TO Keynote Conference Region 10 of the Washington White House Conference on Chil- dren and Youth will hold an all- day meeting from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 16 at Ann Arbor High School. Prof. Willard Olson, dean of the education school, will' deliver the welcoming speech. Keynote speaker is Prof. Ronald Lippitt, program director of the group dynamics research center. The Michigan Youth Commis- sion asked the state to start pre- parations now for the 1960 White House Conference, Mrs. Robert McNamara, general chairman of the regional conference, said. The national conference is held every 10 years to take stock -of the circumstances and prospects of the country's youth and to ad- vance their future, she explained. On the regional 'level, the con- ference will make recommenda- tions for serving youth through schools, communities and various agencies affecting young people, Mrs. McNamrara continued. Recommendations are presently in the compilation stage, she said. They were gathered through the distribution of questionnaires' to' adults and youth in the area. Represented at the regional con- ference will be Washtenaw, Jack- son, Hillsdale, Lenawee and Mon- roe counties. Costs for the all-day conference will include registration and lunch- eon fees. Chapter Asks For Clothing The local chapter of !the Foster Parents Plan, Inc. is sponsoring a" drive for clothing to be distribut- ed overseas, Mrs. William Alston, a member of the group, an- nounced yesterday. The group, which will be col- lecting clean, usable clothing at three stations until Monday, is. planning to ship the articles over- seas where social, workers will give them to anyone who needs them, she said. They are not spe- cifically for orphans or foster children, she added. The Kappa Alpha Theta house has been designated as one of the points for collection, with the oth- er two in the homes of' Mrs. Claude Lowry and Mrs. Robert Juvinall. Anyone wishing more, informa- tion concerning the drive may contact Mrs. Juvinall or Mrs, Wil- liam Willcox.. "They became more activity conscious after the move. The at- mosphere from the highest stu- dent organizations down and from the housing units up was more in- clined toward activities. Projects got bigger-Michigras has gotten bigger as has Spring Weekend - whenever we do anything now, it is on a much bigger scale. Sororities Included "The sorority system has been as much a part of this as any- thing." She then noted the failure of the sororities to get down to the real meaning of their functions. These she defined as the sorority acting as a basic unit for the pro- motion of sound scholarship, meaningful friendships, basic loy- alties and a general balancing of values. She implied that the education- al function of the sororities has been put out of focus due to the unbalanced emphasis on activi- ties. "I have seen Panhellenic, as an organization, come into its own. It has been tested from the out- side with Sigma Kappa in 1956 and with spring rush." As a re- sult, "the 'direction of thinking and policy of Panhellenic has be- come more diverse." Notes Outside Pressures 1 Miss Tower noted that when she took office she knew that this would be another year of terrific pressure from the outside. She felt, that Panhellenic had grown in strength and support from within and that, as a. member of Studenta Government Council, she always had reference to it as a strong sys- tem. Concerning the decision made by SGC on spring rush, she said,1 "I feel that Panhellenic, assuch, was not really defeated, and per- haps the decision !about Spring rush, while not of benefit on cer- tain mechanical grounds, will sup- ply the motivation for looking at the system internally, not' as a part of SGC." She feels that then the direction and thinking of the sorority system will get back into focus. Miss Tower then discussed Pan- hellenic's function, of late, as be- ing in charge of coordinating ("I hate the word") the sorority sys- tem. "The direction of coordina- tion has been up from the houses and out through Panhellenic. Now Panhellenic must supply the lead- ership for an overall effectiveness of the system," to bring back the correct emphasis on the function; of each sorority as a housing unit. Scholarship 'Kick' "Every time I give a swan song I seem toget on the kick of schol- arship. This is something which really concerns .me because I'm not quite sure if people are think- ing of scholarship as a means or as an end. I'm not sure whether they are even thinking of it." This interest is reflected in her initial aim this year as president HuIlaBaLUE 'U' To Issue Student I D'Tags Today Officials for HulaBaLUE Uni- versity will' issue student identi- fication tags today in the League Undergraduate office. All Blue Team members are re- minded that students of HullaBa- LUE 'U' are required to have these ID's for admission to the BaLUE Ball and other campus meeting places. A floor show preview will b'e given at 8:30 p.m. tonight in the League Ballroom for all Blue Team members and officials of HullaBaLUE. A pep rally, complete with a Block H section, and visiting Michigan cheerleaders, will be held at 1 p.m. .tomorrow on the diag. By special arrangement the mock administration will feature BaLUE (blue) popsicles. COEDS' Our flattering, casual, easy-to-do hairstyles for summer will enhance YOU! No appointments needed. The Dascola Barbers near Michigan Theatre --Daily-Fred Shippey OFFICE GIRL--Mary Tower, outgoing president of Panhellenic Association, - discusses the evolution of Panhel, noting a general expansion in campus activities. Looking for a more meaningful function of sororities, she stresses a balancing of values as a means By NORMA SUE WOLFE Lectures, tours, exhibits, experi- ments and a North Campus open house will highlight Engineers' Weekend, to be held tomorrow thru Saturday. "The Weekend, as a whole, is directed toward the layman in hopes of informing him of the academic side of engineering," Charles R. Hildebrandt, '59E, pub- licity chairman, said. In addition, the annual open house is aimed at the high school student. The Engineering Council feels that the student will have a much better idea of the engineer- ing profession if he has the op- portunity to review it from its academic start in college through to its industrial completion, he added.- To 'Give Lecture Initiating the weekend will be Prof. Robert W. Pidd of the phys- ics department and Prof. Kenneth Boulding of the economics depart- ment in a combined lecture titled "Implications of the Space Age on Our Society." The lecture will be presented at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow, in the Multi- Purpose Rm. of the Undergradu- ate Library. It is open to the pub- lic. From 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. tomorrow and Friday, elections of officers for the classes of 1961 and 1962 will be held at the Engineering Arch. To Display Exhibits Beginning at 1 p.m. tomorrow, exhibit areas will be open for pub- lic inspection in the East and West Engrg. Bldg. A total of 42 student displays and industrial exhibits can be viewed until 5 p.m. "The World of Sound," a hi-fi demonstration, will be presented from 2-3 p.m. tomorrow in Rm. 229 of West Engrg. Bldg. The demonstration will continue Fri- day and Saturday. Exhibit areas will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday. At 3:15 that afternoon, Prof. A. D. Moore of the electrical engineering de- partment, will compare "The En- gineer of Today" with those of the past and future. At 10:30 a.m. Saturday, fresh- men and sophomore engineers will be engaged 'in a "tug o' war" at Island Park on the Huron River. Laboratories of North Campus will open their doors from 1:30- 4:30 p.m. Saturday for public in- spection. Movies of research work being done, experiments and ex- hibits will be shown in the auto- motive, aeronautical, fluids and Phoenix Project laboratories. Free parking for drivers and bus service will be provided. Buses will! depart from the Engine Arch at 1:15, 1:45 and 2:15 p.m. Saturday. They will leave from Cooley Bldg. on North Campus and return to the Arch at 3:15, 3:45 and 4:15 p.m. The purpose of Engineers' Weekend is to promote a better understanding of the work of en- gineers, Hildebrandt said. The last day of ;the weekend, Saturday, is concurrent with Uni- versity Day, sponsored by the Michigan Union. Maize Team To Present Final Skits Maize-A-Me will go on the Diag for the last time at 12:45 p.m. to- day. The publicity committee, parad- ing on bicycles through the en- gineering arch, will arrive on the left bank of the general -iibrary to stage a dance routine. This will be a grand finale to all their other presentations. The engine arch has been offi- cially proclaimed the Arc de Tri- omphe; this architectural feat was masterminded exclusively by the Maize team publicity committee. Maize - A - Me, still mysterious, will not only appear on the Diag but will fence it in. Penny Thewalt, '62, co-publicity chairman, said. In fact, posters have recently been released that inform the campus, "You Are Maize-A-Me!" Today's skit will sum up every- thing that Maize has done 'the last few weeks in preparation for their dance and floorshow, to be given Saturday in the League Ballroom. This week, the central commit- tee will wear yellow sneakers and big yellow bows tied under their chins. SECOND SEMESTER EXAMINATION SCHEDULE COLLEGE OF LITERATURE, SCIENCE AND THE ARTS HORACE H.

Each student should receive notification from his instructor as to the time and place of his examination. to this end. to judge the value of the program in terms of each member. "I wanted sororities to keep out of a lot of activities if the scholar- ship was going to suffer. I failed partly because of pressure from outside issues and also because the houses simply didn't feel the need for change." Advocates Change Candidly, as usual, she noted that she would like to see the scholarship committee promote more ideas basic to education rather than -discuss mechanisms for better grades. As for her own education at the University, she said, "There are a lot of different ways of evaluating your education; book learning,de- velopment of interests, getting to know people and getting to know yourself better. It is easy to rationalize for the last four at the sacrifice of the first, but at the end, the rationalization isn't as strong." A major in economics also work- ing for her teacher's certificate, she is looking into jobs in New York' City for next year. She is interested especially in a job which might lead to a foreign as- signment and is considering the possibility of going abroad to find a job. Sees Diverse Interests "My interests are so diverse now. I would love to combine economics and a certain amount of poly sci with government." Returning to her participation in activities, she commented, "I don't think I could have gotten through any of these activities if. I hadn't completely enjoyed the people with whom I worked. I al- ways anticipated the best in them, but wasn't disappointed by less than that. "I enjoyed SGC in terms of working with the people on it," she said. A basic concern of Miss Tower 'is that of philosophies, whether her own or that of her organization. "I often had cause to wonder if, as a student government, the phil- osophy of SGC wasn't composed of 18 different philosophies each year. Individual Philosophies "This was evident when each member, on the major issues, ex- pressed his own well-thought-out ideas from his own philosophy. This is perhaps inherent in the fact that it was none of these 18 who developed SGC as it is now." Until last year there were mem- bers on SGC who had been on the Council when it originated. "When these people left, the original sup- port of SGC left. The Clarifica- tion Committee in its changes will provide a more unified support of SC. As it puts its plans into ef- fect, SOC will again grow from a central core of support. They must define one unified philosophy, de- cide where they are going and how theywant to go." Finally, and typically, her "swan song" as she turned her gavel over to Mary Wellman, '6OEd., the new Panhellenic president, at League Installation Night, was, "I devel- oped a philosophy and I only hope that other people have the same kind of guide for all that they do." Announce C hair.en David C. Beste, '60E, has been appointed Homecoming chair- man and Harvey G. Lapides, '60, has been named Michigras general chairman for next year, John Goodrich, '60, Union ex- ecutive vice-president said. Homecoming will be the end of October and Beste will be in charge of coordinating all the activities and displays and over- see the entire weekend. Michigras is held every other year alternating with Spring' Weekend and it consists of a parade, a carnival in Ferry Field and booths in Yost Field House.
