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. The residents of Betsy Barbour Dormitory entertained at a prettily appointed tea Tuesdayscafternoon, in honor of their new social director, Miss Mary Lytle. Alpha Omicron Pi entertained, the chaperones and house presidents of all the sororities at a tea: Thursday afternoon, in honor of their new chap- erone Miss Martha Hill. Kappa Kappa Gamma pledges en- tertained at tea Friday afternoon, the main feature being small but blue flower corsages which were present- ed to all of the guests. Several teas were given after the game Saturday afternoon, Kappa Delta, entertained the members of the Kappa Delta chapter at Michigan State, and Alphi Phi honored their visiting alumnae. Zeta Tau Alpha pledges were host- eses at a tea given on Wednesday, October 7th. Mrs. May'Power, patron- ess of the sorority, poured. On Wednesday night, October 7, the women in the cast of "The Bad Man" were guests of Martha Cook Dormi- tory at a dinner party. Frances John- son of Martha Cook is one of the cast in the play. Helen Newberry Residence gave a dinner for their Board of Governors on Tuesday, the sixth of October. Initiation. The old residents of Helen New- berry -formally initiated 61new resi- dents of Helen Newberry, and Stough- ton and Parmelee Houses Friday eve- ning. Mrs. A. W. Diack, and Miss Alice Lloyd were guests. Engagement Annoneed. Announcement was 1made at the Kappa Alpha Theta House Monday evening of the engagement of Mary Haye, '24 to Thomas 1avanaugh, '27. I! "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.
