Assembly Plans
New Activities
GroupOf Ten
Pass Amendment Making
Board Membership Open
For Petitioning In '38
A proposal for activities committee
of ten members was adopted by the
Assembly Board yesterday at a meet-
ing of the non-offiliated representa-
tives in .the League.
The new committee will have as its
purpose the further organization of
dormitories and league houses, urging
the non-affiliated women to tryout
for various campus activities, Joanne
Kimmell, '38, chairman of the group
who devised the plan, explained.
Membership on the committee will
be obtained through petitioning next
fall.
Miss Kimmell pointed out that for
the remainder of this year a group
of ten women will be appointed to the
activities committee. They will con-
tinue their duties next fall until the
positions can be filled by the regular
form of petitioning. This group will
be directly connected with Assembly
itself.
An amendment was passed at the
meeting to require petitioning for all
positions on the original Assembly
Board.
The new system will eliminate the
possibility of women not interested
in the oiganization of non-affiliated
women from holding membership, on
the Assembly Board, Helen Jesperson,
'39, president of Assembly, said. For-
merly, the presidents of the smaller
dormitories and league houses auto-
inatically became members of thel
board and the larger dormitories and
zones elected their representatives.
