SATURDAY, JANUARY 16, 1929 Q: - 111AE'' - MICHIGAN -DAILY a-F TF M x.ATc1I-.A.1TCM.iY l~. N 1ATTa '14 HOUSES TO TTENI Dleissioni Will Concern Effieienc Of Existing Advisory And Organizing Systems USE INDIVIDUAL TABLE More than 75 women are expected ;,to attend the breakfast given by th Women's league to league house numbering over 15, that have show themselves to be definitely interested i l campus affairs. This breakfast wil be held from 9 to 10:30 o'clock Sun day in the corrective room of Bar bour gymnasium. Representative from these league houses, members o the Honor council, members of th house organization committee of th Women's league will be present, a well as Norma Bicknell Mansfield, '26 president of the league, and Constance Clarke, '26 vice-president. In an effort to bring about a more personal savour to the function plan have been made to use small table --seating four, which will be decorated -°in a color scheme of green and white An effort will be made to bring dif ferent girls in contact with each other by changing tables between courses The discussion which will be held after the breakfast will be lead by Dorothy Cline, '26, chairman of the house organization committee, and everyone present will be given an op- portunity to speak. The main topic ofrdiscussion is the advisabiity of changing the present methods used by the different advisory, and organiz- -ng systems. The junior advisory sys- tem is acknowledged as falling short of performing its assigned duties, for according to figures from the office t of the Dean of Women only 400 out of 800 entering women were reached this year, and one hundred of these were reached several weeks after the semester had started when the women were already settled. Thus the sys- temn failed in its primary , duty, that of making the first two weeks easier for entering women Recently, also, it has ben felt that the purpose of the house organiza- tion committee, Honor council, and junior advisory system are identical and inseparable, that one organiza- tion trespasses on the ground of an- other, but neither accomplish as much as would be. possible should their efforts be clearly defined and concen- trated. According to Miss Cline, it is hoped that at the close of the discussion a clear idea formed of how to solve this problem, and how a definite place may be made for the freshmen on cam- pus, so that they will be linked up more closely with the University. Any other campus problem which is brought up will also receive discus-. sion. If this function serves its purpose, not only of discussion but of acquaint- ing the women, a similar affair may be given for the smaller league houses on campus. Only those num- bering 15 or more will be guests at this time ..... but it is possible that those between 10 and 15 will have a similar opportunity. It is also pos- sible that the function will become an annual one. Student Teachers Prefer Detroit Detroit is the most popular city with seniors of the School of Educa- tion who wish to do practice teach- uing and school observational work during the spring vacation. This was - found at a meeting held recently in STappan Hall for those students who I had previously indicated their desire! to receive this experience. It is in- teresting to note that these two cities are not thehome towns of many of *the women who signed up for places there. There will be opportunities to teach' in grade schools, junior, and senior, high schools. Prof. C. 0. Davis of the School of Education read the regula- tions governing the off-campus prac- tice teaching. At the end of the en- tire period of this off-campus work a report is expected from each stu- dent covering the following details: the nature of the work done; the out- standing personal advantages accru- ing from the undertaking; sugges- tions for improving the off-campus ob- servation and practice work. Councilwoman Mrs. Helen H. Green of Cleveland, 0., is the first woman in that city to be made chairman of an important council, committee. Mrs. Green was recently made chairman! Of the committee on rivers and har- hors. HIGHLAND PARK CHURCH OFFERS n V T!"7 roireTt:Q ( UIOVRTUVITY I Y Miss Grace Richards, Advisor To F tion Work Done By Chi r By Universi Unique opportunities for foreign- born children are being offered in Highland Park at the Foreign-Born American Division Church school which was started in October. "Here is a real piece of American- ization," commented Miss Grace Richards, advisor of foreign women, who has recently mailed letters to the Cosmopolitan club, the S. C. A., and the Y. W. C. A. urging students connected with social service to in- vestigate the work being carried out at this school. Miss Richards stated that foreign students interested in Americanization will be very welcome visitors. - PRISSIONS GRANTED eFOR RESIDENT CHNGES s Changes of residence between se. mesters are fewer this year than last according to a report issued yesterday by Mrs. A. S. Hobart of the office of the dean of women. Contrasted to the 113 requests of last year, 73 ap- plications were received by this office, out of which 56 permissions have been granted. Women were allowed to move into dormitories or sororities without spe- cial permission by notifying the office of the dean of women and their land- ladies by January 9. 30 have transfer- red into sorority houses and 9 into dormitories. About 19 others were permitted to change League houses. Seven women were refused permission to move because of insufficient reas- ons. "The League houses contain groups of four to twenty women," stated Mrs. f Hobart, "and it is very important that these groups be congenial." In some instances we have found it desirable tomove girls who were much younger than the group with whom they were living." A few land- ladies who recognized that the group in their house was not congenial recommended that changes be made. Too much noise, desire to change eating places, and finances were some of the main reasons for moving re- quests. Contracts for rooms are made for one semester and are automatic- ally renewed unless a student notifies the office of the dean of women and the head of her house four weeks be- fore the opening of the new semester. Mrs. Hobart stated that prices of the rooms would all remain the same for the second semester as ,the first. No additional houses will be opened until next fall. However, many de- sirable vacancies are obtainable due to the fact that many students have had to leave school on account of health. The Ann Arbor branch of the Daughters of the American Revolu- tion will give its annual card party Feb. 6 at the Alpha Phi house. Mrs. John C. Brier is in charge of arrange- ments for the party.

The organization was first started in Dubuque, Iowa and was carried from there'to the University of Iowa. At the present time there are members from 236 ap- proved colleges in the country with a list of active workers drawn only from those who have earned at least an A. B. degree. Providing fellowships and scholar- ships where they are needed and im- proving conditions generally especial- ly in the field of physical education and medicine the organization has at- tached definite utilitarian value to its existence.
