Independent Mass Meeting

To

Be

Held

Tomorrow

Assembly Program in League
To Open 'Fortnight' Activities

Launching a new year of activities,
Assembly Association will open "In-
dependent Fortnight" with a mass
meeting for all independent women
on campus at 8 p. m. tomorrow in
the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre in
the League.
Featured during the meeting will
be a novel Michigan quiz show, de-
signed to help the coed to learn cer-
tain vital campus facts, conducted by
Rosalyn Long, quiz-master. Also on
the program will be an introduction
of the Assembly Board, and Assem-
bly's song, adopted last year, will be
sung.
The Fortnight has been planned
by Assembly Board, which consists
of the officers of the unaffiliated
women's organization, in order to
familiarize the 3,000 independent
coeds with the purposes and activi-
ties of Assembly. It willconsist of
a series of events to last during the
next two weeks and will be climaxed
by Assembly Recognition Night,
when outstanding independent
women will be honored.
As part of their fortnight program,
the Assembly Board will visit each
of the large dorms and auxiliary
dorms during the next two weeks to
explain fully to every coed the mean-
ing of Assembly and some of its plans
for the coming year. House presi-
dents have been notified of the time
of the Board's visits, which will be
immediately after the dinner hours
and at the closing hour so that the
largest number of women may at-
tend. Any questions will be answered
during these talks.
In order to reach the smaller
houses, whose large number makes it
impossible for them to be visited indi-
vidually by the Board, a series of teas

will be held at 4 p. ni. Tuesday, Wed-
nesday, Thursday, and the following
Monday in the League. These teas
will accomplish the same purpose as
the dorm visits.
Individual invitations have been
sent to each house for a particular
tea, but any independent woman may
attend any one of the teas whether
or not her house has been specifically
invited. Those women living in pri-
vate homes and married students
have been especially urged to attend.
The schedule of teas is as follows:
Tuesday, Zones 4, 6, 9, and Muriel
Lester Cooperative; Wednesday,
Zones 1, 3, Robert Owen Cooperat-
ive; Thursday, Zones 2, 5, Hillel,
the League dorm; and Monday,
Zones 7, 8, University House and
Stevens Cooperative.
Assembly membership cards will
also be distributedrduring Indepen-
dent Fortnight, and personnel blanks,
which will be used to find workers
for future Assembly projects, will be
filled out by every independent
woman.
All freshmen and unaffiliated
women are urged to plan to attend
the mass meeting, which will initiate
the theme for Independent Fortnight,
"Assembly Launches a New Year."
Tea Will Be Given
The Newcomers' section of the Fac-
ulty Women's Club will hold its open-
ing tea from 3:30 until 5:30 p.m.
Wednesday at the home of -Mrs.
Wells F. Bennett, 500 Highland Road.
The group's new officers for the
coming year are Mrs. Robert McKee,
president, Mrs. Karl Kessler, secre-
tary, and Mrs. William Beierwaltes,
treasurer.1

Wyvern Begins.
New Project
Coeds' Tea To Be Held
At International Center Tues.
A get-acquainted tea for foreign
students and members of Wyvern,
Junior women's honorary society, will
be held from 4:30 to 5:30 p. m.
Tuesday at the International Center
in anticipation of Wyvern's new proj-
ect of helping to orient foreign
women on campus.
All members of League Council and
Mrs. Lucile B. Conger, executive sec-
retary of Alumnae Council and spon-
scr of Wyvern, will be guests of
honor.
In previous years Wyvern's project
wvas the fostering of closer relation-
ships between junior and freshman
vomer through teas and other so-
ial functions, and the orientation of
he coeds to the campus. This func-
tion is now being handled by the Uni-
versity's freshman orientation pro-
gram.
The new approved project of Wy-
vern is the orientation of foreign
vomen students to the campus. Wy-
vern's 18 members will work with for-
Aign coeds, helping them in the ad-
justment to their new way of life.
Members of Wyvern and foreign
women will work together in pairs
and in small groups, observing mu-
tual interests such as language and
music, and not as two entire organi-
zations. The foreign women students
will be given opportunities to attend
any local churches in which they are
interested.
New fields of recreation will also
be opened to foreign women; many
are interested in winter sports, some-
:hing entirely new to them, and Wy-
)ern members are planning fun with
nowtime activities.
If the foreign coeds desire help
with their shopping, Wyvern mem-
bers will assist them in learning val-
ues in American stores, in selecting
articles with which they are unfami-
liar in their home climates and with
other similar problems.
Attending Ruthven teas, dormitory
teas and sorority dinners is to be part
of the campus orientation program
for foreign women students.
