FRIDAYMAY .15, z 942 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE Organized Social Activities To Be, Centered In League During Summer Semester Women To Vier With Engineers III Sporting Facilities Enliven Life Of Summer Session Students In New System Tea Dances, Social .iours To Be Listed On Program For Heat-Weary Students ** Library Furnishes Pleasant Study Hall Ann Arbor will not be a dull, un- interesting place this summer for those who keep in close contact with League activities, for the program of this student meeting place prom- ises to be filled. Mis Ethel McCormick, social ad- viser of the League, and the Sum- mer League Council will be in charge of arranging a schedule which will include entertainment and special events in the lines of dancing, bridge and social hours. Dances To Be Held In keeping with the standards set last year, bridge hours may be held throughout the summer. Further in- formation about the definite plans will be disclosed at an early date. Following the policy of the spring semester, informal dances will be held in the League Ballroom on Fri- day and Saturday nights. Last year novelty dances were held each week- end. They were attended by students either in couples or singly and host- esses were present. Lively crowds patronized these dances as the League proved a cool, refreshing place to spend a weekend evening. Even in summer school, students do 'relax "once in a while.'' If You Want To Study ... If the weather should become cool enough to permit a bit of studying, the League furnishes campus women with a comfortable, quiet place to carry on this activity. The library, tucked away on the third floor, is equipped with a large and useful collection of books. Comfortable chairs and a pleasant atmosphere combine to make studying as bear- able as possible, even in summer. Rooms for meetings, luncheons and teas are available to all women. Specify the number of people to be taken care of and the purpose for which you want the room, and allow the League to "take care of the rest." Dancing classes, in charge of Miss McCormick and Barbara McInt e, will be held weekly during the sr - mer. They will include instructions in "both beginning and intermediate dancing. This plan proved success- ful. last summer and was well at- tended by numerous students. Included in the preceding group will be square dancing classes, to pe held weekly throughout the Sum- mer Session. Plans are being made to obtain the services of Benjamin B. Lovett, of the Edison Institute, to ,supervise the instruction for the fifth consecutive year. Mr. Lovett is ac- companied in his instruction by a seven-iece square dance orchestra. The lessons are presented free of charge to all students through the courtesy of Henry Ford, of Dearborn. 'Ensian Will Put Out Summer Directory Where can I get ahold of -? What is 's telephone number? All this and more will be revealed in the summer directory published an- nually by the 'Ensian staff. In this directory one can find the name, class, Ann Arbor address, home address, and telephone number of every person on campus in addition to the numbers and addresses of the campus offices. Although the summer directory will not contain as many names as that of the regular session, the size of the book will be larger in so much as each sheet will be the same size as the Ann Arbor directory.

Applications for rooms are being received at the office of the Dean of Students for men and the Dean of Women for women. Men students attending the 16 week term will be able to choose between Fletcher Hall or one of the six or eight open dormi- tories in the West Quadrangle, while medical students planning to attend the full term may make their resi- dence in Victor Vaughn House.

Directing the weekly meetings and overseeing the work of the other members is Charlotte Thompson, president of the committee. She is responsible for cmplete cooperation among the chairmen and for the group working as a unit.

Within a radius of only a few miles, there are opportunities for at least a dozen of the popular outdoor summer sports as well as many indoor recreations. Fresh-air fiends can hike, canoe, fish, roller skate, swim, cycle, sail, ride horseback, play golf, tennis, and baseball, as well as organize picnics. Let's Go Swimming For swimming enthusiasts, the Hu- ron River and nearby lakes help to keep the temperature down. The municipal Bathing Beach is located near the city limits on Long Shore Drive, and offers supervision in the way of life guards as well as the cooling aqua and floats. For those who do not require su- pervision there is Barton Pond, form- ed by the Detroit Edison Dam, which can bereached Via either the Huron River Drive or Barton Shore Drive. Farther on is Delhi Park, five miles away; Loch Alpine, six miles away; and Hudson Mills, 14 miles away. Ten miles north of Ann Arbor on US 23 is Whitmore Lake which fea- tures privately owned beaches as well as many summer homes. Eight miles away, in the direction of Ypsilanti, is located the Rawsonville Dam; and 16 miles out the Dexter Road is Por- tage Lake, which offers the added advantage of being shallow enough for those who are not Johnny Weis- mullers to cool off. For The Anglers Many of these places plus Island Park and Dexter-Huron Park offer picnic facilities as well. For the fish- erman, the surrounding lakes yield bluegills, sunfish, darting perch, carp, and catfish. Canoes may be rented at Saunders' Canoe Livery, on Long Shore Drive and a few sailboats are to be had on Barton Pond, which features a three-mile course. Golf and tennis enthusiasts will find many tennis courts and golf courses in the vicinity, and just be- yond the city limits are facilities for horseback riding. Bicycling offers not only a means of transportation, but also a great deal 01 enjoyment. The Huron River Drive, and Barton Hills are among the many popular cycling places nearby. Hiking fans and especially those who are camera addicts can find many scenic spots in the vicin- ity, among them, the Arboretum. Eb- erwhite Woods and Huron Hills. Within Ann Arbor itself are oppor- tunities to bowl, and to rent equip- ment for badminton, volleyball, ar- chery, or squash to name only a few. Available also are the usual diversions of movies, lectures, plays, concerts, not to mention the enter- tainment provided by an afternoon at the Museum. Enterprising young people have been forming square dancing clubs, and hiring callers to teach them the old dances. Featuring foreign films and reviv- al of well-known American pictures, the Art, Cinema League will present programs this summer in the Rack- ham Building. Wolverine Co-op Will Have Varied Social Program A social program including dances, athletics, record programs and open houses will be maintained through- out the summer semester by the Michigan Wolverine, cooperative eat- ing club and largest student cooper- ative organization in the United States. The Wolverine began its activities in Lane Hallin 1932,.with a member- ship of 75. It now occupies its own building, and during the school year '41-'42, the membership was more than 750 Despite the rising food prices the Wolverine will continue to supply an adequate menu at no increased cost this summer. Classical, symphonic and Shakes- pearian records will be offered in the Wolverine record concerts, which will be presented during Sunday morn- ing breakfast hours. Dances will be held periodically throughout the summer, and at least two open houses are planned. i NEW i S a] "THE WOMEN'S LEAGUE of the UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN ORIENTATION PROGRAM Orientation programs for both freshmen and transfers will be held from Wednesday, June 10 to Monday, June 8, Virginia Capron, '43 and Gloria Donen, '43, have annou need. able to relax and to make nev friends.
