Then,sas the year progresses, the
freshman comes to know more and
more about the SCA. They learn
that it sponsors round-table discus-
sions on such widely divergent topics
as vocational guidance and religion,
economics and politics. They learn
that the SCA sponsors sociology trips
to nearby cities for the purpose of
studying at first hand actual living
conditions of American families. Last
year trips to Toledo, Chicago, and
Detroit were made. Others are
planned this year.
The organization finds time for
many other pursuits. There is a
committee for the study of co-opera-
tives, there is a committee on in-
firmary social work, there is the Fresh
Air Camp each summer where him-
dreds of underprivileged boys spend
several joyous weeks. Lane Hall,
owned by the association, is open at
all times to both men and women
students, and here are found reading
rooms and rooms available for meet-
ings and discussions.
Officers of the SCA for this year,
are: William Wilsnack, '37, president;
Richard Skrede Clark, '37, vice-pres-
ident; Rose Perrin, '37, vice-presi-
dent; Dorothea Gerish, '38, recyrding
secretary; Janet McLoud, '37, corre-

.Michigan's graduates have been
very active this year in recruiting de-
sirable students for the University,
said T. Hawley Tapping, general sec-
retary of the Alumni Association and
editor of the Michigan Alumnus, in
a recent interview.
He pointed out that there has been
an unusually large number of fresh-
meh callihg at the offices of the
Alumni Association the past few days
with letters of introduction from
alumni in widely separated parts of
the country.
Mr. Tapping stated that for many
years officers of the Alumni Asso-
ciation have been emphasizing this
type of interest as an important ac-
tivity of organized alumni, for the
cosmopolitan character of the stu-
dent body is one of the things that
has made Michigan an inspiring uni-
versity.
The fact that the alumni are con-
cerned in maintaining this charac-
teristic and in directing desirable
graduates towards Ann Arbor indi-
cates a very sound and healthy at-
titude, said Mr. Tapping in closing.
pong tables. During the year bil-
liard tournaments are held and many
of the country's leading chalk-line
artists give exhibitions in the Union
which may be attended free of charge.
A barber shop is located downstairs
in the Union, where nine barbers,
some permanent men and some stu-
dents, working their way through
school, are ready to serve men on the
campus.
A large ballroom is situated on
the second floor. Here dances are
held every Friday and Saturday

tering students of the University
must undergo. The Universityncares
for any illness of a serious nature
brought to light in the examination,
and advises students in the care of
minor ailments. These examinations
are provided but not required annual-
ly.
High Standards Kept
The medical officials cooperate
with students in maintaining a high
standard of living conditions. Physi-
cians conduct inspections of the eat-
ing places of Ann Arbor throughout
the school year and inform the stu-
dents through The Daily of those
places not meeting the rigid require-
ments.
An effort to orient students to the
athletic facilities of the University,
such as the Intramural building and
the Union swimming pool, is made
by the authorities.
The Student League
The ANST (Student League) will
direct you to a room when you come
at the opening of the semester. They
lave an arrangement for having stu-
dents' laundry and cleaning done for
half price. Their leaders represent
