"Resolved: That the University
Should Adopt the Pass-or-Fail Sys-
tem of Grading."
In the tournament each team will
meet the others. The teams winning
the most decisions will enter the
elimination series.
Eight teams have been registered
and placed in the tournament. There
is still opportunity for teams to en-
ter the series, Jean Maxted, '41, in
charge of the women's division, an-
nounced.
Sponsored by Athena and the
League the debate tournament will
award trophies to the winners and
runners-up at the Speech Honors
Banqget to be held in April.
In Group A Rachel Gillette, '44,
and Charlotte Papernick, '44, of Jor-
dan will meet Martha Cook team

ding, '42 of Kappa Delta will defend

and Betty Newmann, '43, of Jordan.
In Group B Norma Crowe, '44, and
Shirley Raskey, '44, of Jordan will

Jean Clare, '43, and Mildred Ward,
'41, of Kappa Delta, will meet Esther
Tang, '41, and Opal Shimmons, '41,

Special Course Is Made
Uncle Sam's.amy
Possible Through Grant
A grant from the Rockefeller Foun-
dation to the University will establish
a special eight-weeks course in Eng-
lish during the Summer Session for
Latin-American students who will en-
roll in American universities next fall,
Dr. Louis A. Hopkins as chairman of
the project announced recently.
The course will be offered to a j
limited number of students who will'
enroll in this and other Universities.
The course was set up as a national
plan to assist students in making;
the difficult language adjustment,
Dr. Hopkins pointed out.
The course will also constitute a
research project to determine the best
materials and techniques for teach-
ing English to foreign students. This}
feature of the plan will also prove of
scientific value in future work in this
field, Dr. Hopkins cited.
"English" House Proposed
As a part of the project an "Eng-
lish" house is proposed next summer
Groups Seeky
Scholarships

in acquainting alumni groups with
the urgency of the project. Mem-
bers of the scholarship committee
are Edward Tann, '43E, chairman;
William Clark, '41, William Hurley,
'42, Lee Perry, 42 and John McCune,
'41.
Two new amendments were passed
changing the terms of office of Sena-
tors. It was decided that elections
should be held semi-annually in
1 April and December. At least one-
or a selected group of Latin-Ameri-
can students who would live with a
director and assistants in order to
develop further their command of
English and to adjust themselves to
college life.
The entire project has had the
support of the Division of Cultural,
Relations of the State Department.)
In a real sense it has been the
outgrowth of the Pan-American stu-
dent exchanges which the University
has developed during the past few
years. These excha'nges have pro-
vided scholarships and fellowships
for students from Latin American
countries.
For the past three years the Uni-
versity along with many others has
received an increasing number of for-
eign students from South and Cen-
tral American nations. Thus the ser-
vice to be given by the University
will benefit a large group of Spanish
and Portugese speaking students.
60 Enrolled In Classes
The plan has grown outof lang-
uage services offered by the Inter -
national Center under thedirection
of Prof. Raleigh Nelson, who has been
engaged in teaching English to for-'
eign students for more than 20 years.
This year more than 60 students are
enrolled in English classes at the
SCenter.
Members of the committee in
charge of the project are Dr. Hop-
kins, director of the Summer Ses-
sion as chairman, Prof. C. C. Fries
of the English department, who has
been director of the Linguistic Insti-
tute for the past five summers; Prof.
Hayward Keniston, chairman of the
Department of Romance Languages,
and Professor Nelson, director of the

Then it happened! Striking with
the rapidity of a Nazi mechanized
unit on a quick foray, the Alpha Chi'
Sigma crew of masculine experiment-
ers. a professional chemical frater-
nity, sent several of its members on '
a scouting party to East Lansing by
way of conducting a novel experi-
ment.
The scouting party came back ap-
parently more than satisfied by their
treatment at the hands of "those
Michigan State angels." Glowing re-
ports of the "East Lansing side of
heaven" soon circulated around cam-I
pus wherever males gathered, until
various "exploring parties" soon
found their way northward over the
weekends.
42 Magazines Mentioned
The aggregate results point to a
new era on the Michigan campus.
No longer, the males assert, will wom-
an rule be effective as far as they
are concerned. In the future, when-
ever the Michigan coed gets out of
hand, male eyes will turn northward
-to East Lansing and vicinity.
Said Nicholas Jenesel, '41, whose
name is now intimately being con-
nected with .that of Virginia Suchin
of the Michigan State campus: "Take
it from me. If you're feeling out of
sorts with the world, travel on to
East Lansing, where an angel waits
for you."
The only comment made by Philip
C. DeLong upon his recent return
from the friendly haven to the north
was: "Go north, brother! Go north!"
