DRAMATIC CLUB
TO HOLD TRYOUTS.
There are 26 women enrolled in the
course of Oral Hygiene offered in the
School of Dentistry this year. This
is a comparatively new department
Having been ofered only since 1921. It
prepares -vomen to assist licensed
dentists.
the course consists in one year of
work. During the first four or six
weeks the women must attend classes
both morning and afternoon. Later
on the students attend classes only in
the morning, working in the clinic in
the afternoon. Before they take up
this work however they must learn
the technic thoroughly and buy both
instruments and uniforms. The girls
gain this technic by practicing on
dummies.
After the student is proficient en-
ough she is moved to the clinic and
practices on the school children from
surrounding towns, and the patients
who come to the school. .
The course follows that of a den-
tists', except that it is more condensed
and more simple. Graduates are fitted
to enter the office of a dentist, work
under a board of health, do public
school work, or assist in any muni-
cipal instituttion. The admission to
the school is the same as in the School'
tof Literary Science and Arts. -.Ac-
credited graduate nurses however may
take the work in one semester if they
enter for the first semesters' work.
Now that rushing is over, and all
sororities have announced their lists
of pledges, the campus has settled
down to its usual but nevertheless in-
teresting fall routine of pledge teas,
pledge formals, and full week ends of
ootball and aluninae reunions.
The pledges o Pi Beta Phi enter-
tained all of the other sorority pledges
at tea Thursday afternoon, and Friday
evening the hcapter hel da, formal
dance.

chaperones and house presidents of
all the sororities at a tea: Thursday
afternoon, in honor of their new chap-
erone Miss Martha Hill.

flower corsages which were present-
ed to all of the guests.
Several teas were given after the
game Saturday afternoon, Kappa

"For a woman the career of a
lawyer is a hard one," says Dean
Bates of the Law School. "Out of
the five seniors graduating in June,
1927, only two have positions with
legal firms. The reason for this is
that most legal firms prefer a man
to a woman because they claim a
pretty young woman lawyer will dis-
tract the attention of the young men
in the office and social engagements
do not belong in a law firm.
"Then, too, many firms have calls
for lawyers who must go into the
sordid parts of the cities where to
be unarmed is endangering life, and
to send a woman to such places is
impossible of course. The best oppor-
tunities for women are with legal
firms who deal with land contracts
and manage estates. There are op-
portunities for women in legal aid
also. A woman has few chances for
success working independently. Even
Judge Florence E. Allen, of the Ohio
Supreme Court, never attained mark-
ed success practicing law.
"In regard to the bestt students,
we find in the Law school that both
men and women are equal. In the
Literary college ' the wotmen, who
study harder than the men, average
higher, while in the Law school both
study equally hard and have practi-I
cally the same averages.
However, Mary E. Hellyer, '28, says
"I am keen about law. No profession
offers better opportunities or has
more need for women than law. I
am most interested in Juvenile courts.
Where men, as a rule, are predjudiced
against them, I believe that women
can become as successful in certain
branches of law as men. By that 1
mean that the Legal Aid, Investment
Banking, and Juvenile Courts are pri-
marily woman's field."
According to Miss Florence Pollick,
'28 Law, "Law is one of the hardest
professions for a woman. Legal firms
are often predjudiced against them
they claim they haven't ability in
creative thinking and in thesecond
place, they claim that a woman only
uses her profession as a stepping
stone between college and marriage,
therefore it would not pay to give
them important work. While women
can attain success in probate work,
I do not think they are fitted for po-
sitions as corporation lawyers.
"Mrs. Willebrandt, Assistant Attor-
ney General, who is in charge of en-
forcement of prohibition, is an out-
standing example of a' woman's abili-
ty in law. I have had some eXperi-
ence in a law office here in Ann Ar-
bor and while I intend eventually to
have my own office, I shall probably
work for a while .with a legal firm
for thervaluable experience I shall
gain."
PRACTICE GAMES
HELD YESTERDAY
Of the three preliminary intramur-
al hockey games played yesterday, the
one between Martha Cook and Betsy
Barbour was undoubtedly the most
interesting. Both of these teams
promise to make future bids for the
championship. At 8:30, Zeta Tau Al-
pha and Delta Gamma played a fast
game, both teams making a good
showing.
The game between Chi Omega and
Alpha Xi Delta, although not excit-
ing, showed a great deal of enthusi-
asf on the part of both teams. On the
whole, all the games of the morning
showed good spirit, which was in
keeping with the perfect hockey day.
As neither Theta Phi Alpha nor Phi
Sigma Sigma had teams to put on the
field, the game scheduled for 11
o'clock was called off.
