New Program STUDENT PROPHECIES: To Fit Wornen' Complsory PEW Will Be Next For War Work Step If Voluntary Exercises Fail II Miss Ethel McCormick To Head New Committee To Compile Training Suggestions For Coeds Action to fit war training for Uni- versity of Michigan women students to the positions which women can best fill in the nation's war effort is the objective of the newly-appointed Committee on the Women's War Pro- gram which is headed by Miss Ethel A. McCormick, social director of the' Michigan League. Information is being compiled from both government and business sources regarding the positions which women can fill in the war program. This information is being checked to disclose the training which can be given by the University to best fill these needs. The new program is an expansion of a plan which has been under way at the University for some time. An extensive survey has been made to find out what war training courses each woman student is taking or has taken as well as the student's field of major interest. The information thus gained has made it possible to give definite advice regarding courses which will qualify each student for positions in fields where war-created personnel shortages exist. Along with this preparedness pro- ject, the voluntary program of physi- cal fitness for women students has The newly initiated physical fitness program for women seems to be a flop as far as most coeds are concerned. The program was started for the sole purpose of giving the women an out from PEW, since most of them object to the idea of compulsory calisthenics. The idea of voluntary exer- cises to take the place of PEW, provided that there was 100 percent partici- pation, was a good one, but the way the program is going now, PEW is inevitable by next semester. When half the athletic managers on campus fail even to turn in records of their house or dormitory's activity in this direction, and when half the records that are turned in consist only of girls touching their toes.twice and calling it calisthenics, the one possible conclusion is that the women want PEW. If they don't, they are still pursuing the best possible course to get it. Nobody likes the idea of compulsion, but some form of physical pro- gram is not only inevitable but necessary. This year women as well as men are doing twice as much as ever before. The war has tossed any relaxation periods women formerly may have had right out the window. Most of them have, besides their regular classes, and ordinary extra-curricular ac- tivities, some form of war work to do, such as helping at the hospital. This demands physical endurance, and usually night classes in addition. Further- more, due to the University's accelerated program and the shortened sem- esters, more work is demanded in a smaller amount of time, which means harder studying and less sleep. At the rate she is going, the Michigan coed is going to be a complete physical wreck, and she is doing little or nothing about it. In fact, by her failure to make a voluntary program work, she is forcing the very thing she doesn't want-compulsory calisthenics. -Jane Farrant I su c¢bb°ri¢b r i * ~*1 w Dear Santa - They say that even you are having lots of trouble gettin' our gifts this year.

GORGEOUS COED WANTED for one afternoon by some 30 handsome men. West Quad Camera Club, 506 Wil- liams, 2-4401. By MARJORIE HALL That old familiar cry, "Barbour gym is never open, so how can we play badminton?" is gone forever. No longer can shuttlecock-crazed enthu- siasts bemoan their fate of possessing a first class Slazenger racquet and a box full of Blue Goose birds without having a chance to coordinate the two in fast and furious action. Take your pick-Monday, Wed- nesday, Friday-or all of them put together, and the answer is badmin- ton at Barbour. Tournament play in the open singles and doubles classes begins at 8 p.m. Monday when the feminine racquet wielders take over to battle for campus honors. Tournaments Sponsored. Wednesdays provide a chance for the women to show their male coun- terparts which way the bird flies, for mixed doubles matches can be ar- ranged between 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. Of course, there is no rule against Clara and June playing then too, and tournament matches can be racked up with ease. The Women's Badminton Club, managed by Marjorie Giefel, '44, meets at 5 p.m. every Friday, and tournament matches are usually reel- ed off in short order. With such a variety of times avail- able for conflict with the badminton bird, all that is needed is a pair of WAA SCHEDULE Basketball Schedule: 5:10 p.m. tomorrow, Couzens vs. Chi Omega; Jordan vs. Alpha Epsilon Phi. 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, Mosher No. 1 vs. Adelia Cheever. 5:10 p.m. Tues- day, Kappa Alpha Theta vs. Mar- tha Cook; Zeta Tau Alpha vs. Gamma Phi Beta.

Twenty-one women have entered the open singles tournament, and Sue Curtis, '46, has posted the schedule listing the pairings on the Barbour bulletin board. Jean Deibel, '46, has done the same with the fourteen teams entered in the doubles tourna- ment. Deadline Requested In order that these tournaments may pave the way for bigger and better things to come, Miss Giefel has requested that all second round matches be played off before the Christmas vacation so that the vic- tors can be crowned early in 1943. The individual participanjs can choose their own times to play off their matches and must make all ar- rangements to do so. For conveni- ence, telephone numbers are posted with the names, and all is in readi- ness for a full season in the swat de- partment. it h,- - Interviewing for orientation ad- visers has been extended a day. Anyone who petitioned but was unable to appear at the appointed time may be interviewed from 3:15 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Undergraduate Office of the League. ! _ __ _ __ _ __ _ __ _ __ _ __ _ _ 1 J vex PRINCE MATCHABELLI'S % % GIFT SET $2.00 ,xX £ Coveliep Man eve/ A large flacon of Prince Matchabelli's beloved Pot- ( pourri COLOGNE . . . and a ( great square box of Pot- ( pourri soft-as-fluff DUSTING POWDER . . . in a beautiful new "dress" wrapping that means Potpourri as truly as this roses-and-violets-and- spice scent itself.
