D. Henderson, exe-~ cutive secretary of the Alumnae coun- cil, recently completed a trip through- nut the southwestern part of the Unit- ed States, and states she was met encouragingly and enthusiastically by different groups of former Michigan men and women who have been work- ing with increasing loyalty towards the attainment of the new building. Kansas City, Missouri, Oklahoma City, Tulsa and Pawhuska, Oklahoma were the four main cities visited by Mrs. Henderson during this trip, each one of which maintain an active alum- nae organization. Under the leadership of Miss Mar- jorie Davis the Kansas City group an- ticipates completing the $10,000 pledge it has made, and Miss Davis expects to bring the amount with her when she makes a visit to Ann Arbor during spring vacation. If this is accomplish- ed Kansas City will be allotted a par- ticular room in the new League build- ing, which will be known as the "Ceorgia Robertson Baird Room," in memory of the late Mrs. Charles Baird, for which Mr. Baird has given $5,000. Mrs. Baird was keenly interest- ed in League work, and was one of the first to give a gift of size, at the time of the early inception of the league she doated $550. Mr. and Mrs. Baird lived in Ann Arbor during the time of Mr. Baird's connection withf athletic work in the University. Previous to this time Oklahoma City had done no work for the league, butI through the efforts of Mrs. Henderson and Mrs. Ald~rich Blake (Mary Clark-t son of Ann Arbor) a group met at the home of Mrs. George Chase Lewis' and discussed 'League work as well' as developments of the University in general. Among those present at the meeting were Judge George Cottrel, of the Federal Bench of the Federat Court, and Mrs. Anton Classon, widow of Anton Classon, '88 Law, who was one of the first to go over the border when Oklahona was opened for set- tlement..Mrs Classon had given lib- erally to the University of Oklahoma but nevertheless sent a gift to the League. Tulsa, Oklahoma has a very active alumnae organization, particularly among the women. Miss Constance Eirich is chairman of the women's work, and through the fine co-opera- tion given her is determined to make Tulsa 100 per cent in League member- ships. Miss Eirich holds one of the most important women's positions in the state of Oklahoma, that of ge - ologist for the Gypsy Oil Company. Other Michigan women hold some of' the most important teaching positions in the Tulsa public schools. Mrs. Charles Lahman, who is keenly inter- ested in League work, is noted throughout Oklahoma for her study of unnamed plants. While at Mich- igan, Mrs. Lahman did special work' in the biology department.I Pawhuska, Oklahoma, the city of the Osage region, is the home of Mr. George Labodie, the only Osage In- dian ever graduated from Michigan. and Mrs. Henderson found it very responsive to League work. Mr. La- bodie gave a gift of $1,000.

Detroit and other out- of-town merchants and business men as well as those in Ann Arbor. were very generous in buying pages in the program, with the result that the ad- vertising space was oversold. Sorority Wins Over League House Zone; In a comparatively easy, but well played game, Kappa Delta defeated Zone 3, yesterday afternoon, by a score of 63 to 14, in the final series of the intramural tournament. The Kappa Delta players showed excellent team work, and outplayed the oppos- ing team throughout the entire game. Though the forwards of the zone team played a very good game, the ball was seldom in their territory. The line up of.the teams is as follows: k appa D~elta Zone 3 M. MacNally.....F.......... J.

Thinking he might be interested in she mailed a copy to his London address and re- ceived the following reply: "You are quite an ingenius young liar. How many marks did they give you? A career as a journalist is in- dicated. Good luck to you." Miss Stephenson called Shaw a Mephisto- phelian personality, and in her critic- ism inferred that in his philosophy of life he ran always contrary to accept- ed standards.
