League Committee 'Checks Up' Reservations Due
On Women's Activities Records "" Capel
By MARGARET WALSH
The "check-up week" which the
merit system committee hasvbeen
conducting brings to the Univers" y
woman's mind the long period of ser-
ice which this committee has ren-
dered to women students.
Organized in 1913 by members of
Mortar Board, the merit system com-
nittee's chief function was to re-
:,rd on each woman's card the acti-
7'ties she had participated in during
:er college career.
Soon after this, the group evolved
the system of merit points similar
to that now employed in the League.
According to this system the amount
of work that each member of the'
League has done is recorded, as well
as the particular activities she has
participated in.
Last year a larger card was intro-
duced into the ever more complex
system used by the League on which
are recorded personal comments
about the individual from various
coimittee chairmen under whom

employers write and ask specific in-

on the cards. The new "personal
