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.

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.
