By DEBS EARVEY Gabriel Fuentes, '39E, of Spanish descent but a native of Puerto Rico, likes the University of Michigan for its democracy and its women students. "On our island," he said, "there are distinct social classes. If you come from an old family which is well- known, you are accepted without question in society. But if your family isn't known, you are not one of this socially acceptable group. Up here, there is no distinct line. You often can't tell the difference." Puerto Ricans More Considerate On the other hand, Fuentes says that in his country Negroes and mulattoes are treated with much more consideration and respect than they are given in United States, even in the north. As to Michigan women, the-man- with-the-accent simply stated that he likes them and that he begs to differ with the gentleman who thinks that four out of five women are beautiful and the fifth comes to Michigan. He preferred not to be quoted on specific examples to support these statements. Fuentes transferred to Michigan from the Unive'rsity of Puerto Rico, where he studied engineering. When asked' to compare the two schools, he re- plied that work at the University of Puerto Rico is conducted in much the same manner as it is here, English textbooks being used, although recita- tion is always given in Spanish. Univesrity Less Interested But outside the classroom, the uni- versity has much less interest in the student's life than at this university. There are no regulations for men' about automobiles, rooming houses, or the use of liquor. An interesting difference in socialI custom can be noted in the conven-1 tional courtship of Puerto Ricans. Young women of good familiesalmost never "date" unescorted. At dances, movies, or even on walks, the couple are escorted by her parents or friends. But even escorts are human, and will occasionally loosen the apron-strings a bit. "It's more or less like a game, you know?" Fuentes smiled. But before a man may begin to ~"date" a young woman, he must ob- tan consent from her father. When he wishes to marry her, again he asks for her father's permission. If Fuentes is a true product of his environment, we may assume that Puerto Rico, "where it is always spring," is a place where one is con- tent with the present and optimistic about the future. This laughing, black-eyed Spaniard from the West Indies was in difficulty about his program at the time of his interview. "I have taken many of the wrong courses," he confessed. "Now my schedule is so confused. But .when things get too mixed up, I just close my eyes and wait till they get better." And with another quick grin he dismissed his troubles. Honor Deans With Dinner Dean Alice Lloyd, Dean Jeannette Perry, and Dean Byrl Bacher were dinner guests of Kappa Alpha Theta Thursday. Following dinner coffee was served in the living room before the group broke up to attend the lec-' 'ture at Hill Auditorium. Interviews Continue MondayAt League Interviewing for League Under- graduate and Judiciary Council po- sitions will continue from 3:15 p.m. to 4:45 p.m. Monday in the Under- graduate office of the League, Sybil Swartout, '39, chairman of Judiciary Council, announced yesterday. Only those who were unable to be interviewed this week because of ill- ness will be interviewed, Miss Swart- out said, and it will be necessary for them to present a doctor's or house- mother's excuse verifying their ill- ness. Regular interviewing was conclud- ed yesterday at 5:30 p.m. Only two positions are open to sophomores, both of them as junior members of the Judiciary Council. A third senior member of the Council will be named, in addition to officers of the League and committee heads, Miss Swartout said. Manager Urges Prompt Play-Offs In Badminton All players in the women's singles badminton tournament are asked to play off the first round as soon as possible, Florence Corkum, '4lEd, an- nounced. All students wishing to enter the women's doubles tourna- ment may sign up at Barbour Gym- nasium.

Noteworthy, isn't it, that the answer of so many un- prejudiced people is . . . . "ZWERDLING!" They may know little technically about furs. But an impres- sive number of men who have been around and who do know values, have had reason to recognize the de- pendibility of Zwerdling Furs.
