EIGHT THIE MICIIIGAN .DAILY. FRIDAY, MAY 16, 1941 Dr. Bell Says Participation In Sports Is Needed To Relieve Nervous Strain By LOIS SHAPIRO1 "One of the ,most important ob- jectives of physical education is the relaxation which comes with grati- fying partkcipation in sports," said Dr. Mar:arct :Bell, head of the Physi- cal Education Department for Wo- men, in In interview concerning sum- mer school classes in that department. ' The classes and activities devised for the summer session, 1941, include the presentation of fundamental skills, scoring, rules, and etiquette in the following sports: swimming, both beginning and intermediate; archery, golf, riding, tennis, tap danc- ing, badminton, modern dance, and ,body conditioning. Sports Aid Health As Dr. Bell remarked, "One of the greatest handicaps to health today is the nervous strain developed with continuous pressure, and one of the ways to combat this strain is through regular participation in sports - not week -end sports but regular, longer periods of light activity.", To this end the physical education department for the summer session will offer recreational opportunities in swim- ming, tournaments' in tennis, golf, archerya ndbadminton, as well as The regular classes. Three different groups of courses will be given. The first of these is a six week course starting June 30 in modern dance and swimming. The second is the first in a series of two four week courses, one starting June 30, and the other July 14. This two four-week course system was devised to meet the need of those who have difficulty in scheduling their classes at the beginning of the session and those who have program loads at the end. To Train Teachers Special teacher training, for grad- uate women in the field of physical education will be available to meet their special needs in. any area of the field. Certain teachers will be assigned' to train them in skills and methods they wish to learn. Also, provision will be made for supervision of groups wishing inten-.

Bathing suits and play suits with bare midriffs have been designed for, the more daring and carefree mood as well as overalls or pinaforeA worn without a shirt.° ary With Moods Those who get tired of the man- nish influence can wear their frills ,his summer even in play clothes. Very feminine silk beruffled blouses will be seen with silk and spun rayon shorts and the ruffles on bathing suits are ever increasing. The effect on the bathing suits will either be a ruffled trimming around the top or a short ruffled skirt on a long waist- ed fitted suit.

There are several special groups of students to whom theseJ rules do not apply, and who may have unlimited use of automobiles providing they indicate this on their applications. Those students to whom the rules do not apply are: those engaged in professional pursuits (such as doctor, lawyer, nurses); those who are 26 years of age or over; and those who have a faculty raanking of instructor or its equivalent. Special Permits Granted For students who are not in these groups, special permits are granted, by the Dean of Students if their cir- cumstances necessitate such use, or if they need a car for sporting purposes (golf, tennis and swimming). In this latter group, the permit is valid dur- ing the hours of 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. each day. At the time of registration' each student will be requested to state whether or not he will drive during 1 the Summer Session and to furnish definite information with regard to the make, type and license number of the car to be used. Applications Necessary It is important that all students who are not exempt under the above rules, shopld make application for permits. Students at Camp Davis, the Bio- logical Station, the Camp for For- estry and Conservation, and the Sta- tion for Geography are subject to the automobile regulations of those units. The auto regulations which are in effect during the Summer Session do not apply to students who are en- rolled during regular academic year. By LOIS LEONARD Cotton is king of materials for summer because it is as fresh and cool as it looks. Its uses know no, limit-blouses, skirts, playsuits, day- time dresses, formals, in fact any- thing you can think of. Leading the parade are the three- piece outfits with shorts underneath. These little time-savers are especially popular .in stripes and splashy flow- ers. Pique, linen, shantung, seer- sucker and sharkskin are favorite ma- terials because of their coolness. Most of these playtime clothes are easily washable, which makes them doubly useful. The wrap-around skirt is casual and easy to slip into. Dignity Too Means Cotton Clothes with a little more dignity also use cottons first. Voile, hand- kerchief linen, bemberg sheers have that touch of feminity which makes them just as suitable for streetwear and dates as for classes. Bemberg sheers have a special claim to popu- larity, because they are so adaptable -for spectator sports and dress alike. They appear to equial advantage as shirtwaists or dresses complete with lace and frills. Always popular, always smart, and always cool is the white sharkskin dress. It is tubable, an essential quality for summer. Broomstick Vs. Peasant Skirts have but two requirements, that they be full and colorful. Vy- ing with the broomstick skirt for popularity is the peasant skirt, gath- ering on a band. Both these numbers give the free and easy motion which summer time activities demand. The peasant skirt particularly is found inE .an unlimited number of mateirals, but for coolness and smartness, pique cannot be outdone. For that added note of sophistication, the striped silk jersey skirts rate with the best. 'In partnership with skirts come the blouses, and here you will have full opportunity to indulge in femi- King Cotton Reigns Wardrobes With Summer Sports Dresses Outdoor Sports Call Students From Books Nature calls - to remind you that it isn't all work at the Summer Ses- sion, and to say that she has person- ally gone into competition with the League and the other organizations whose designs are all toward giving you a good time. You're just getting a hint, now that spring has come, of how the country- side around Ann Arbor is at its best. Summersessioners discover it quick- ly and a picnic at Loch Alpine or any other favorite spot is always so well-attended that even the ants have to scatter for cover before the onrush of students. How are you. on swimming? Well, it doesn't matter, anyway, because whether you glide like a Weismuller or paddle like a turtle, its the coolness that counts. There's a variety of places to swim, too, even if the wo- men haven't their pool yet. Dozens of lakes around the city (we've been in- fluenced a little here, perhaps, Py the Chamber of Commerce), and the pools at the Union and Intramural Building invite both the champs arid the paddlers. Canoeing, another favorite pastime of summer students, is a sport for amateurs and professionals both. The reason is mostly because the kids who are gpod at it get a lot of pleasure out of smoothly gliding along through the ripples, and the ones who 'do it badly get so much fun out of it that they don't even notice the jerkiness of their technique. Tennis and golf and riding and bowling - all the things you enjoy in the spring andeven in the winter are here for summer students, in addition to the more exclusively "summer" sports.
