League Plans Enlargement Of Publication Plans for a League paper, an en- largement of the regular league bul- letin, "What's Up," have been an- nounced by Jeanne Crump, '42, editor. Consisting of four pages, approxi- mately magazine size, the paper will be principally to cover League activi- ties, acquainting freshmen with the rules of activity, eligibility, and peti-E toning before the confusion of last minute applications. All activities ofj tle League will be covered by the monthly paper, with features, edi- torials and drawings included. The necessity for a paper announc- ing petitioning and explaining the nature of petitions to eligible women has been felt in the League, and p%.:is for a regular paper have been brought up before. This is the first time, however, that they have been organ- ized for active application. House rules, such as sign-out slips, will be explained, and all other regu- lations pertaining to women students, with emphasis on new ones. Dorothy Merki, '42, with Miss Crump, will be concerned with the paper in connection with the new House Chairmanship committee. A regular staff of reporters will be re- sponsible for material. All those interested in working on the paper should come to a meeting next week, time to be announced later.
