LEAGUE TO ALLOWN STUDENTS TO USE LEAGUE__THEATRE Chi -Omega, to Present Contralto as First Artist Under New Plan. USE FUNDS FOR BENEFIT Theatre Is to be Devoted More to Interests of Women on Campus. In an effort to devote the League theatre to women's interests, an opportunity will be given to all wo-1 men's groups on the campus to use the theatre ,this year. A sorority or dormitory may present any feat- ure they wish and will have entire' chavge of the program and use of the box office for ticket sales. Chi Omega sorority is the first group to take advantage of the. new policy. They will present Miss Edna Thomas, contralto, in a con-' cert next Tuesday, October 14. The concert will be given for the bene- fit of the Chi Omega service fund for which sociology scholarships are given each year. The theatre will be available for, other groups after next week's con- cert. Arrangements for using the theatre should be made with Miss Amy Loomis, director of the thea- tre. The use of the theatre by wo- men will be increasingly encourag-I ed, by the League, according to; Miss Loomis. She said in regard to this project; "We have felt that for a women's theatre the Lydia Mendelssohn has not been used enough by women. In order to bring women into closer contact with it we have presented this plan of community use of the theatre."1 An organization may, through the medium of the theatre, bring here any artist, lecturer, play, or any type of entertainment they? wish to present. The only restric- tion is a requirement that the pro- ceeds be used as some kind of a benefit fund.1 UNIVERSITY OF K A N S A S-, Plans are being made for the construction of a Memorial Union! building here, the funds for which' will be raised from voluntary gifts< from the students.] Work of Advising, Housing Are Under Direction of Dean Organization of the office of the Dean of Women is much as it has been for the past four years. The work is divided among the mem- bers of the staff as formerly, ex- cept that Miss Alice Lloyd, as Dean, is at the head. Miss Lloyd is responsible for housing and is special advisor for the Judiciary Council, Pan Hellen- ic, and the Junior Girls' Play. Mrs. Byrl Bacher has charge of student employment, and is special advisor for women in the School of Music. Miss Jeannette Perry has taken, over the student loans, and will ad- vise sophomores, juniors, and sen- iors who are in financial difficulty. She will also take charge of eligi- bility. Miss Ethel McCormick has come to the office as social director. Her office has been organized for the purpose of extending the social op- portunities to women students. Miss Ellen Stevenson will continue to assist in the inspection of League houses, and in all problems connected with the general hous- ing situation. She will also assist any freshmen who wish advice in regard to their work. 'Non-fiction Is Widely, Read, Says Librarian' "Non-fiction is as popular or more popular than fiction," said Miss Frances Hannum in the Cir- culation Department of the Public Library. "Psychology, biography, and travel are the non-fiction types most in demand." "Plays running in New York or Detroit create a demand for the same play at the Public Library," Miss Hannum continued. 'Green Pastures' has been one of the most popular books on the reserve list." Travel books such as "Growing up in New Guinea" and "Coming of Age in Samoa" by Margaret Mead are in great demand. Also "Little Known England" by Oberlin, and "Humanity Uprooted" by Hindus. "Awakening College" by Dr. Lit- tle has been on the reserve list since last March and is still signed ahead. "How to Live Twenty-four Hours a Day" by Arnold Bennet has enjoyed wide popularity since its publication. These are a few of the most widely read books Miss Hannum mentioned. MEMBERS ADDED TO PLAY STAFF Junior Class Women Appointed to Head Committee Work. SCRIPT TO BE CHOSEN Six members have been added to the central committee of the Jun- ior Girls Play, instead of three, as was originally planned by the members who were elected last spring. Elizabeth Louden will be chairman of ushers; Phylis Reyn- olds will take charge of costumes; and Helen Kitzmiller will be res- ponsible for make-up. The additional members are to be three chairmen of the dance committee. They are Winifred Root, who will act as critic and take attendance, Lois Sandler, who will take charge of all tap-dancing, and Lynne Adams, who will be res- ponsible for the ballet work. The change was made so that the members of the junior class could take part in the actual work of training the choruses this year.. The first work of the entire com- mittee, of which Emily Bates is general chairman, Jane Inch, as- sistant chairman, Dorothy Bird- zell, business manager, Ivalita Glas- cock, properties chairman, Kather- ine Koch, chairman of program, Katherine Sitton, music chairman, and Jean Levy, publicity chairman, will be to choose - the committees which will start work on the play as soon as it is selected. Manuscripts will be read by the central committee, the director, and Dean Alice Lloyd, who will se- lect the best and most workable play for presentation in March. After the selection of committee members, the finance committee will start work immediately, col- lecting one dollar from every jun- ior woman. The system used will be the same that the class used in collecting money for the 'Freshman Pageant, and the Sophomore Cab- aret. Each member of the Com- mittee will have alist of junior wo- mittee will have a list of junior wo- sible. Every junior who pays will receive a receipt which she will have to present before being allow- ed to tryout for the play. PARENTS' CONCENT TO ATTEND GAMES REQUIRED BY DEAN Women students wishing to at- tend out-of-town games are re- quested this year, as always, to register at the office of the Dean of Women. Since this office does not wish to assume responsibility, for any woman's absence from' Ann Arbor, every one is asked to file a letter of permission from her parents. Those planning to go to Colum- bus for the Ohio State game are to register not later than Thurs- day, October 16. A fee of fifty cents is required for all planning to go by rail, as a chaperon will be provided for the women's coaches of both special trains. If students travel by any other mode than train, the letters from their par- ents must include this permission. New Method of Ticket Sale Proves Success The new system inaugurated this year by thr Women's League for the sale of dance tickets has worked out with considerable more success than last year's method, according to the house committee of the League. All men who purchased tickets were formerly required to show Union cards, but many students do not have Union memberships and others failed to bring their cards. At present each man must in some way identify himself as a student or be presented by a member of the Women's League. BOOK GUIDES FRESHMEN The "K" book, "Freshmen Bible" put out by the University of Kan- sas, is in its forty-first year of publication. The opening article of a 1905 edition is entitled "How to Go Through the Mill," which seems to indicate that the agony of registration and enrollment was no easier then than it is now! All entering women students at the University of Hawaii are re- quired to pass a rigid swimming test similar to the Junior Life Sav- ing tests. Those who fail must join a swimming class.

T. Howard, director of per- sonnel at Northwestern University asks in a series of articles appear-I ing in "The Nation." "Anybody ought to go to college who really wants to," he says, "but I do be- lieve that colleges should be strip- ped of the false glamour, the social prestige that attends them today. "The individuals who should go to college and who are most likely to achieve distinction through its training are those who have shown by mental tests and high school records to have ability and inter- est. I do not think that only the most brilliant should attend col- lege, but I do think there should be much higher entrance require- ments." "Field hockey is the sport that is calling forth the enthusiasm of all college women at the present time," said Dr. Margaret Bell. "There is, of course, due reason for this enthusiasm, because in the last twenty years hockey in this country has advanced from an al- most obscure sport to one of the leading activities for women. "Women who are keenly inter- ested in sport and in strenuous ex- This sport also gives the players wonderful training in teamwork which compels the brain to work rapidly. If one learns coordina- tion in hockey she will find that it is also helpful in every day life. "The University of Michigan has offered hockey as a major sport to its women for about twenty years and in that time an ever in- creasing interest has been shown in the game." in the game.~~ IITI 'Precious Little' Ads "So Much" r To the New Fall Dull crepey hose pure with the texture of fab Costume Dainty ."hankies" of be- witching color combina- tions in smart patterns that you just can't resist. 25c up .a A f silk bric.
