By Campus-Wide Competition
"Two contests, one for songs and

ing' on the 1942 Junior Girls' Pro-
ject," Lucy Wright, '44, chairman of
songs committee, announced at the,
mass meeting yesterday.
These contests, announcement ,of
which was the main feature of the
meeting, will not be limited to junior
women only but will be open to all
students on campus, both men and
women.
The only entrance requirement is
a 10 cent defense stamp, and the re-
ward for the prize-winning scripts
will be $1.00 in defense stamps.
The contests are now open and the
deadline is three weeks from today,
December 9; scripts may be addressed
to Miss Wright and submitted in the
Undergraduate Office of the League.
The winning skit will be considered
for appearance on the Sunday morn-
ing bonds and stamps radio program.
The prize song will 'be saved for the
junior program at the annual Senior
Supper. The skit will be presented at
campus dances and dormitories.
The junior class will be expected
to contribute at least $3,000 worth of
bonds and stamps a month, thus set-
ting a standard for the rest of the
campus of donating at least one dol-
lar a month to this 'most important'
drive.
.Marcia Zimmerman, '44, general
chairman, urged fuller cooperation on
the part of the junior women. Any
women not yet registered on commit-
tees may still do so by contacting the
various committee heads.

ON THE CAMPUS FRONT
By JANET VEENBOER
Its carrying trays, putting away len, and wheeling patients now for
sophomore women instead of planning costumes and working out skits for
the heretofore annual Soph Cabaret. But the transition from the life of
cokes, bridge, and bull sessions to that of hospital handy-man has brought
confusion to more than one sophomore as well as to the hospital staff.
One girl even worked for two weeks in the surgery department before
she was traced and sent to her original post in a ward. Neither surgery nor
soph knew the difference, and the coed had become so indispensable that a
volunteer is on regular duty now in the operating room.
However, the plan as a whole has been so successful that the volunteer
duty has been expanded; women are now working in clinics, while others
have taken night duty from seven until nine each evening. There is still a
need for -more volunteers, Natalie Mattern, chairman of the project, has
announced, stressing the need for women on Saturdays, Sundays, and in the
evenings.
Any University woman may join this volunteer group by calling the girl
in charge of the day in which she is interested. Captains for each day are
as follows: Monday, Margery Merriam and Joyce McCormick; Tuesday,
Eleanor J. Webber, Mary Thielen, and Joan Shuchowsky; Wednesday, Bar-
bara Mason, Pat McGraw, and Florene Wilkins; Thursday, Betsey Frank and
Dorothy Pugsley; Friday, Peggy Laubengayer; Saturday. Jane Faggan; Sun-
day and evenings, Natalie Mattern.
And at St. Joseph's Mercy Hospital thirty-five women have been doing
a great deal of unlauded volunteer work. Janet Lewin, chairman of this
group, hlas announced a need for workers Saturday morning and afternoon,
Monday evening, and Friday evening. Just as a sidelight, Janet as well as
Gloria Donen are among the lucky (or ambitious) ones who have earned
their Nurse's Aide Certificates. The uniforms alone should be an incentive
for others to follow in their footsteps.
Far from the realm of hospital work but still within the bounds of war
acitivity, forty women under the ledder'hip of Jean Conway responded to the
plea of Mrs. Hammett for USO-Community Fund solicitors. Jean Reid,
Lucille Genuit, Jeanne Diebel, Sue Curtis, Ann Fruehauf, Janet Clover, Edith
Helberg, Ann Harmon, and Gayle heron are just a few of the girls who
donated their time and efforts for this drive.
The list continues with: Mary Ellen Zahrn, Suzanne Lovett, Claire Sher-
man, Janet Tarrant, Irnia Bluestein, Betty Boas, Helen Ashley, Dorothy
Kolesar, Irma Plisko, Carol Stedman, Mary Ellen Sandoz, Dorothy Griswold,
Catherine Shilson, Shirley Shea, Audrey Bratman, June Cerf, Audrey Gold-
stein, Betty Goldstein, Audrey Hirschel, Lee Horn, Ann Kaplan, Doris Lesser,
Aimee Miller, Betty Nichun. Helen Ruskin, Rena Smith, Ruth Tratolski, Lois
Campbell, Jane Wooten, Jane Thompson, and Mary Jane Fisher.
Cooperation will be the keynote of victory, and spirit such as this
brightens the prospects for the entire country.
Also listed. as a "war job" was the "coding of registration material"
which Mortar Board finished for Professor Clark Tibbitts, Executive Secre-
tary of the University War Board. Which proves that even the BWOC's have
time to help out in more ways than one.
It will be dancing in formals and "tails" to the music of the best bands
of the country at fraternity and sorority pledge formals this year, if the
defense council of the League has anything to say about it, Nan Gray,
publicity chairman, has announced. A few sororities have already announced
record dances for these annual functions, planning to donate the money
saved to some fund for the war effort.
