They are the following sophomore women, Dorothy Beek, Alice C Kathryn Butler Herna Grabo j, Virginia Lasse. Janet Unden, Jean Wallace, Arlene Heilman, Marjorie Muffley, Frances' Sackett, Doris Renkenberger, Helen Fellows, Jeanette Dressler, Dorothy i McKee, Ailei . Yeo,7 Elfrieda Peterson, and Margatet Stahl. Enjoyment of the dance is the aim of Orchesis. It was organized in 1925, for the purpose of promoting this in- terest among Mic,lgan women. MXss Cummings, dancing 'instructor of ,last year, sponsored the society from its formation untiL; she accepted a posi- tion at the University of Wisconsin this fall. Last year Orchesis present- ed the first dance drama ever given at Michigan. This year its prograns has been enlarged to incl-ude a more pretentious drama at the end of the year. The present plan is that work on this be carried on throughout the year. As far as organization is concerned, Oi'chesis has not done much as ycy, Better attendance and greater interest will be worked for this season, how- ever. Membership in the society will take strictly into consideration, at- tendance at meetings. At the meet- ings, technique and the fundamentals of dancing are, discussed. News members are chosen after tie annual pageai:t of Freshman .women. Candidates for membership are sug- gested by the membes with the help of the dancing manager. ORG ANIZE HOCKEY TEAMS FOR PLAY The hockey season has arrived, and the teams are being organized. All women who are interested are asked to report to thb head of either the intramural or interclass hockey teams. Work is beginning on the former, and will begin in the near future on the latter. The daily gynasium classes in hockey number about 10 sectyas, V, about 480 students, who are learning the ground w hf the game. All these students are eligible for inter- class work, ad jtough their know- ledge of the ghme is not thorough. this is unnecessary as the game will f be explained. Janet Jones, '29Ed of the W.A.A., manager of the teams s wishes all thoe who are interested to report to her. treshmen are especial- ly urged to d out. The hours of practice will be in The Daily and post- ed in Barbour gynmnasium the day of the first practice. This year there i will not be a second team, so that 4 great many more entries are expected. On rainy days tl re will be indoor i. practice,. so no tinz e will be wasted.E University Employment Agency Assists Women In Earning Way Through School, VI DELIA PI WILL ___________ infnlin 0 liT rrTnInI Cora Declares Ann Arbor Weather Is Ruinous To Usually Sweet Dispositions Money, strange power in a world study, looking up opportunities for where the economic order must of work, and so on. For those who ex- necessity reign, controls with no small strength even such an idealistic and Utopian spot as a university. Here with the acknowledged pur- pose of learning both the good and the ills of a troubled sphere and k1 bringing these into some sort of harmony, we still admit the impossi- bility of lessening the obvious benefits of financial means and. of removing, the terrors of its non-possession. But this is somerhat in the vogue when one harks back to the problem which brought about such philosophic thought. For it is, always, a prc/lem or the clash of two lines of reasoningi which compel us to assume our men- tal "specs," Miss Vida Van Vlerab, in charge of the University employment agency forI stenographers and other office help gives this answer to the inquiry. "With regard to. working one's way through the University, it is difficult to give advice that will apply to each individual. Young persons differ largely from one a-nother in those qualities which are required. What thoroughly discourages one only gives new determination to another; one has health and strength that jermiit him to stand work that is too much for another. One fact remains, how- ever, that cannot be gainsaid: a large portion of the students at the Uni- versity of Michigan are paying their own way, in whole or in part, by their" work during the school year and dur- ing vacations.. "If you are an expert stenographer, and can take dictation rapidly ai% transcribe it both accurately and rap- idly, you will have a great advantage in securing employment. You ought not to come to the University without sufficient funds to pay all your saes, and enough more to get well started on the year's work while you are familiarizing yourself with the situa- tion, forming habits of concentrated pect to earn a good part of their ex- penses while at school. it is recom- mended that classes be arranged as much as possible during the mornings, leaving the afternoons free for worn. "Others are doing what you are proposing to do; some are trying it and making failures. It is "up to you" to decide whether in your situation and circumstances you have the qual- ities and the real desire to make your success likely." Miss Beatrice Johnson, adviser to women, has charge of all applications for work other than stenography and the like. Her figures show 52 women working for room and board this Fall. Although many women apply fo, clerical work, Miss Johnson states that there are no calls in that direc- tion. There are, however, numerous requests for assistants in cookisg. There are also a la-rge group of Uni- versity students willing to care for children evenings, although 'there have not been many opportunities in this line to date. "Whenever possible," Miss Johnson maintains, "I would encourage student loans rather than the girl attempting to work her way through by any of these latter means. I feel that these students become sort of semi-worn out and do not benefit fully from their studies or the life about them." Wages range from room and board to $10.00 or a little better a week. Mr. John C. Christensen, who is at the head of the University employment department, commented on the situa- tion. "The grades of these students, in general, are high. Nevertheless, they have little time for any outside activities on the campus nor for a great deal of, entertainment. The bet- ter way, of course, is to procure suf- ficient funds to at least partially pay one's way through, leaving a smaller portion which may be earned without hardship during the year." HULl 1111TME INU Chi Delta Phi will hold its first meeting of this year at 7:30 o'clock, on Wednesday night in room 204 of the south wing of University Hall. Plans for the coming year will be discussed. The announcement of try- outs will probably 'be within two weeks. Officers for the year are Kathryn H. Francis, '28, president, Alma Schei- rich, '29, vice-president, Mary Well, '28, secretary, Margaret Ohlson, '30, treasurer, and Miriam Selker,'28, his- torian. Chi Delta Phi is organized for those interested in writing. Membership is chosen by tryouts._each candidate submitting the manuscript of either a short story or more than one poem. Material has been published in the past year written by the following members: Mrs. C. C. Little, a poem in Scribner's Magazine; Eleanor Ken- ny, '29, a short story in College Stories; and Miriam Selker, '28, several poems in College Stories.

Geographers rave about tropical "showers" but when I come in con. tact with any of them I'm going to do some elocutioning on Ann Arbor downpours! The more I see of Ann Arbor, the more I am convinced that everything conspires against a good disposition, even to the weather. Why rave now? Well, I started out with a perfectly respectable looking pair of atmos- phere chiffon hose encircling my- (dubiously)- shapely ankles, a n d when I reached my destination even the atmosphere part of them was sup- ersaturated! But, as the old saying goes, the worst was yet to come!. When the same hose dried, they looK- ed like a cross between an alligator and a mud turtle! It wasn,'t bad enough , to walk through a drench'iing rain, but on the way I encountered what appeared to^ be professors, gaily whizzing by in their various limousines oblivious of what scientists term H20, and what I prefer to term mis- ery! Oh, I'm not objecting to the professors running around in their cars, but invariably I enco'untered them at a cross walk, and became the victim of a veritable barrage of mud. I never prided myself on being hand- some, but if I have any good features now they are successfully concealed behind a muddy mask! The men force us members of the sweeter sex to a strong-hold of pretentious dignity, and this weather joins ranks against us and robs us of even that weak tor- tification. "Thr/e ain't no justice!" MORTARBOARD AT PURDUE SPONSORS GIRLS' GLEE CLUB Motarboard Society at Purdue Uni- versity is sponsoring a Women's Glee club, the first of its kind to be organ- ized at this university. The cudb plans to give several out of town con- certs. This same society is also spon- soring a women's orchestra. By uo- ing this they feel that they will bring women's activities to a more promin- ent place on the campus. MARTHA COOK WOMEN_ HAVE HONOR SYSTEM Self-government in the matter of administering house rules is to be adopted by Martha Cook dormitory this year. There will be no penalties for latenesses, but each girl will be put on her honor to be in on time The honor system was given a thi ee weeks' trial last year, and is expected to prove extremely successful when permanently adopted. The Student Government Board ol the dormitory will consist of severq members: the house president, the vice-president, secretary, treasurer, a junior representative, a senior repre, sentative, and the night chaperone The night chaperone, who is one o the students, is responsible for an- swering the doorbell and taking charge of signing-out slips. Martha Cook dormitory, which is a residence for juniors and seniors, had the highest scholastic average. last year of all organized houses on th< campus. Its average was slightly above 84 per cent. - - ANN ARBOR'S NEW STORE The Shoppe New )Iichigais Theatre Building, i23 E.

Get Acquainted With This Little Store of Big Values. world for a long time as workers in garment factories, textile plants, and other occupations where a woman's skilled fingers are needed, but it is comparatively recently that women have entered machine shops. "They first entered this field as shop wori:- ers during the world war," says an executive of the Hoover Steel Ball Co. of Ann Arbor, and they soon p-oved that 'they could do the lighter work as well as men could. The development of industrial machinery," says the executive, "gave the woman more opportnuity along this line be- cause they could now do with ma- chines what "had required a man's strength to do. Today a 'goodly per- centage of shopworkers are women,. who as unskilled laborers manipulate the less complicated machines and do inspection work of various kinds." "In most cases the wage scale is about half that for men. There are several reasons for this. Women are physically unable to work for as long be given recesses or a change of oc- cupation. Another contributing factor in the lower wage scale is the fact that companies must spend more in maintaining better working and sani- tary conditions for women. But the main reason for this difference is the fact that the women themselves a e willing to work for what they can get." "This low wage scale reduces the production cost; therefore it is an ad- vantage to employ women wherever practical. Another advantage," ac- cording to the Hoover executive," is that there is less labor turnover among women employees because they do not have the incentive that a nian has to better their positions." "There is a question, however, now that women have won a place in the shops as to whether they will retain it. For the women who must earn and who have neither proficiency nor train- ing in anything else the shop ohers an opportunity that was not open be- for." --------- ---- The MARILYN Shoppe 523 F.
