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.
