War Center
WAVE And WAAC To Answer
Queries About Services During
First Week Of New Semester
The newly formed War Informa-
tion Center for Women, organized
at the League, will take care of any
inquiries University women may have
regarding war work, war courses, or
the uniformed' services.
During the first week of next sem-
ester an officer from the WAVES
and one from the WAACS will be on
hand to answer questions about these
services. Throughout the year other
such authorities will be brought here
by this new organization, which will
operate in the council room of the
League.
To Publish Bulletin
Pamphlets concerning programs of
study to meet specific demands in
industry, and other material may be
obtained at the Information Center.
These courses the Center feels will
contribute both to a liberal educa-
tion and training for war work.
Special courses in the College of
Engineering, the School of Business
Administration, the School of Archi-
tecture, the Department of Geology,
and other fields will be offered next
semester for all those interested, and
will present great opportunities for
women, according to members of
the Information Center. A special
bulletin to appear later will have an-
nouncements of courses in advanced
shorthand and beginnirg typing.
Watch Bulletin Boards
Miss Ethyl McCormick will act as
director of this new organization,
which is now ready to answer the
questions any coed may have about
war work. In the instance that the
Information Center is not able to
give the wanted advice, it will direct
the student to the right source.

Sororities Lead Way
In Junior Project
Bond, Stamp Drive
Marcia Zimmerman, '44, general
chairman of the Junior Girl's Project
for the sale of war savings stamps
and bonds, announced yesterday that
University women have so far con-
tributed $9,832.50 and of this amount
sorority women have bought a total
of $7,955 with Collegiate Sorosis lead-
ing the individual sales.
"Of the coeds on campus, sorority
women are to be congratulated on
their great participation in the pro-
ject," Miss Zimmerman stated, "since
in proportion to the number of wo-
men living in league houses and
dormitories, the sorority women def-
initely form a minority." She added
that she hopes sororities will keep
buying the same amounts and that
other women will try to religiously
pay their minimum of one dollar's
worth every month.
Booths will not be operating on
campus during the final examination
period but will be reopened at the
beginning of next semester.
