Women Are Eligible
To Honor Societies
Women at the University of
Michigan are eligible to at least
14 honor societies. Some of these
1 groups include men in their mem-
bership, but nine of the fourteen

eral, the honor societies elect their
members from the upper two class-
es; the season of general recogni-
tion by honorary groups is the
spring of the year. Endeavor in
practically every field is recogniz-
ed.
Freshman women, by achieving
excellence in scholarship equiva-
lent to at least half A and half B.
work throughout the first semes-
ter, are eligible to Alpha Lambda
Delta, which is a national society
organized on the Michigan cam-
pus last year. The right to be -
long to Alpha Lambda Delta is
also won by those who attain the
standard of half A and half B grade
by the end of the second semes-
ter. Alpha Lambda Delta initiates
new members about one month aft-
er a semester ends. Its pin is a
candle of small pearls with a flame
of a single ruby.

superior work in geology, sociolo-
gy, the classical languages, chem-
istry, and education are Chi Upsi-
lon, Alpha Kappa Delta, Eta Sig-
ma Phi,' Iota Sigma Pi, and Pi

Charts providing a place for wo-
men to sign for the shift prefer-
ence for selling in the League ba-
zaar have been distributed to ev-
ery sorority house, every dormitoryl
and every league house canvassed
by the articles committee. These
charts will be posted on the bul-
letin boards in every house and
are the means through which the
women are given the opportunity
to sell at the bazaar, which is be-
ing held December 7 and 8.
There will be three shifts on Fri-
day, beginning at 1o'clock, the op-
ening of the bazaar. The shifts
will be from one to four, from four
to six, and from six to nine. Sat-
urday has been divided into fourl
shifts; from nine to twelve, from
twelve to three, from three to six,
and from six to nine. All women
are eligible, and each woman will
be awarded one activity point for
the one shift period allowed her.
The lists of all those who would
like to sell must be completed by
November 24 in order that changes
and rearrangements in shifts can
be made if necessary. Each wo-
man will be held responsible for
being atthe bazaar at the time for
which she signs.
This year, to be in keeping withI
the decorations and to help carry
out the idea of this bazaar, the wo-
men who sell will wrear bright cos-
tumes provided by the bazaar com-
mittee rather than the white and
colored smocks that have been used1
in previous years.
Women are urged to sign the
preference charts early, since in
case of confict preference will be
given according to the order in
which the names are listed. If
there is any question concerning
the selling of articles at the ba-
zaar, the information can be ob-
tained by calling Madge Brook, '29,

dance floor.
