Si T~lEH-Ck-iA I LY F TWAT,.4NA%-1943 Student Senate lbissolves After Skips Her Books to Make Bombers 6 Years Activity Membership Cut, Budget Decrease Responsible for Failure, Landers Says Decreased membership, budget cut and recent drafting of four of its members led to the dissolution of the Student Sehate, Jim Lahders, presi- -dent, announced yesterday. The Senate, organized six years ago from a parley group directed by Dr. Edward W. Blakeman; Counselor in Religious Education, was cut by a constitutional change last year from 36 to nine members. Its budget was likewise cut from $60 to $18. The Senate gained attention this year in investigating and mediating in two labor disputes concerning stu- dents, initiating the present student Sjeakers Bureau, selling defense bonds sand stamps, and cooperating in the Summer Prom to help the Bomber Scholarship, Chinese and Russian War Relief programs. Landers stated concerning the Sen- ate's dissolution, "We are sorry to see the abandonment of the Student Senate, for with it-goes the last cam- pus-wide freely elected representa- tive body. . . We hope that in the near future there will be on the cam- pus a recognized student government as the University of Michigan is now one of-the few large universities with- out a freely-elected student govern- ment. ..' The retiring Senators are: Landers, '43, president; Elaine Spanger, '43, secretary; Sid Brower, Dick Orlikoff, '44, Hermian Hudson, '44, Ken Tay- lor, '44E, Lewis Saks, '43, Bill Lough- borough, '43, and Bill Ager, '43.

Chinese Girl Leaves Studies to work in Defense Factory New Course in Child Care to Be Offered Students from Four Departments to Take Nursery School Work Designed to release women for war- time services and to train workers for nursery school and child care programs, the School of Education is offering a new course in Nursery School Methods, it was announced today. In response to the need for women with nursery school training for work in home communities or in desig- nated schools, D1516 will be opened as a three-hour credit course for stu- dents majoring in health, psychology, sociology and education. Similar non- credit courses were offered last sem- ester by the Office of Civilian Defense, with faculty members volunteering their services. Installed as a part of the total school program, the new course will enable students to receive college credit, and will send them back to Office of Civilian Defense activities or to organized nursery schools with a more thorough train- ing background. Not Professional Teacher Course "This is not a professional teacher course," states Mrs. Myrtle Firestone of the education school. "It is in- tended to give girls a little training to help them in family and commun- ity life." Instructional materials will be drawn from studies of child psychol- ogy, nutrition, health and the fam- ily. Discussion of the relation of child care to problems created by the war; particularly by the employment of women, will be emphasized. Obser- vation;of Ann Arbor's nursery schools is planned to provide familiarity with techniques for guiding the experi- ences of the young child in music, play, language, and the daily rou- tines of washing, dressing, eating and sleeping. Mrs. Firestone Is Coordinator Serving as coordinator of observa- tion and instruction, Mrs. Firestone will . work with Professors Arthur Wood of the sociology department, W. C. Olson of the education school, Miss Martha G. Colby of the psychol- ogy'- department, Miss Lavina.

TRY OUR CARAME LIZED CAPPLES 9 SMiBLE 339 An emphatic proof that the women of bomb-shelled Pearl Harbor can help their men in striking back at Hirohito, Miss Florence Pang, Hono- lulu-born Chinese has given up her studies at Michigan to work on the Willow Run assembly line. "I never dreamed I'd ever work on airplanes," was Miss Pang's comment after herfirst three weeks of training fr 'cable rigging in the Ford bomber plant. 'A graduate student in physical education at the -University, Miss Pang is trading books, for war bonds, but hopes eventually to go back to Honolulu to teach. Her parents still live in Honolulu with her two sisters and five brothers. "Two of my brothers were working at Pearl Harbor in December, 1941," explains, Miss Pang. "They worked Monday through Saturday and had Sunday off.but they're working Sun- days and every day now!" This dark-eyed, lightly - freckled ,. Honolulu girl claims she will be glad to get back to her home town where the winters are mild, "nothing below 75'," and where strangers won't stop; to stare and ask if English is spoken in Hawaii. "That's one of my pet peeves," said Miss Pang with a frown. "We can speak as much American slang as anyone in Michigan. If people on the mainland would only realize that Hawaii is a part of the United States -as 'President Roosevelt stated, 'an integral part'." Miss Pang lived in Honolulu until 1937 when she came to California to study at Stockton Junior and Whit- tier College for four years. Her last visit home was the summer, before war broke out, and she heard the news of Pearl Harbor while here at Michigan. The people at home will be greatly astonished when they hear about her new job, Miss Pang believes. "But I'm sure they will heartily approve of it," she added. With her two brothers at Pearl Harbor and another in the army she feels glad to be able to con- tribute something.
