place in the educational scheme ofj
things, he said.
The tutorial plan used at Harvard,
Oxford and Cambridge with its quick
assimilation of the students into the
whole is a type of thing much needed
here, Professor McClusky stated. Yet.
if the fraternities and sororities
would, they could take over at least
a part of this task in adjustment in
such schools as Michigan, he said.
This could be accomplished, Pro-
fessor McClusky pointed out, if the
fraternities and sororities would "edu-
cate" their members-that is, provide
a stimulating atmosphere and take
advantage of their national charac-
ter.
Guidance in scholastic and voca-
tional questions, pre-marital prob-
lems, personality adjustment and the
establishment of a philosophy of life
could all be given by trained repre-
sentatives of the national organiza-
tion who made Such work their busi-
ness, he said. Too, upperclassmen
could be trained to do work of the
same sort, he added.
An obvious way of getting out ofj
their present rut would be the pur-
chase of good prints, recorded sym-
phonies and the establishment and
use of well-chosen libraries so that
Editors and newspaper publishers

Bay City Girls Mix
Their Homemaking
With 'X's' And 'Y's'
A course in home planning holds+
more appeal for Bay City girls than
do mathematical theories, Prof. Nor-
man H. Anning of the mathematics
department revealed after observing
classes in Bay City Central High
School Thursday.
The girls are taught all the mathe-
matical principles involved in run-
ning a household efficiently, in the
course integrated around the idea of
a planned home. The students, 85 per
cent of whom will never go to college,
display a great deal of natural in-
terest in the course, Professor Anning
claimed.
Besides their x's and y's, the girls
are taught to read meters and repair
household gadgets. Installment buy-
ing and budget studies take the rest
of their time.
Professor Annnig considered "high-
ly commendable" the spread of such
practical training in progressive high
schools.
William H. Bates was elected junior School of Education, director of the
class president of the College of bureau.

Loan Prospect
on Corn Crop
ProposalRally
#i/
WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-(P)-
Prospects for a government loan on
this year's corn crop apparently im-
proved today, but the outlook for new
surplus control legislation which
President Roosevelt wants to accom-
pany sucl loans remained uncertain.
Mr. Roosevelt discussed the corn
loan proposal at a conference with
Secretaries Wallace and Morgenthau
and Daniel W. Bell, acting director of
the budget.
A press conference statement by
President Roosevelt, that it had not
been decided whether new taxes
would be necessary, revived specula-
tion that crop loans may be financed
by reenactment of levies on the pro-
cessing or manufacture of farm pro-
ducts.

SENIOR SOCIETY
Senior Society was entertained at
dinner Thursday by Dean Alice Lloyd
in her home. They discussed plans
for the coming year.
The
ARCH of
living in the fraternity or sorority
atmosphere would be a delight, Pro-
fessor McClusky stated. The organ-
ization's interest in parties, clothes
and girls could be continued if par-
tially subdued, he pointed out, but a
magnificent advance would be made
over the present superficial advan-
tages of mere group living.
"There has been a change in the
way of things in recent years and'
with that change a new attitude to-
ward fraternities and sororities has
arisen. The old 'Joe College' style
of leisure living is no longer tolerated
and neither is excessive display of
wealth. Too, there is a new ap-
proach to education as represented in
such schools as Stevens and Antioch.
"Unless fraternities and sororities
rouse themselves from their present
lethargy to meet these new condi-
tions the question of their continued
existence is problematical," Professor
McClusky concluded.;
