By DOROTHY SIMON
One of the many foreign coeds
who are concluding their first se-
mester here is Josefa Sastre, a
graduate from the University of
Tucuman in Tucuman, Argentina.
She is one of 150 students from
Argentina who was chosen for the
cpportunity of continuing her
education in the United States.
Miss Sastre was teaching child
psychology in the normal school
connected with the University of
Tucuman before she came here.
During the course of her work.
she received an invitation from the
Inter-American Educational Foun-
dation, connected with the United
States State Department, to spend
10 months in this country--one se-
mester at any university, and the
remaining months visiting other
schools throughout the country.
The Educational Foundation in
Washington found a place for her,
at Michigan.
The educational system in Ar-
gentina is quite different from
ours. Miss Sastre received her
degree of Prof. of Philosophy
and Education from the Uni-

ART JARtRETT .--

Schreiber, band; Andy :Poledor,
programs; Bill Hannig, tickets;
and Lenore Olson, refreshments.
Special 1:30 a.m. permission will
be granted to all coeds attending
the affair.
Coeds To Practice
For Rifle Match
Advanced shooters in the WAA
Rifle Club will meet from 4 to 6
p.m. today at the ROTC Range for
practice.
Members will shoot between 1
to 5 p.m. tomorrow at the ROTC
Range in°a match to be held with
Drexel Institute of Technology at
Philadelphia and Carnegie Insti-
tute of Technology at Pittsburgh.
Members have been divided into
teams of 10 shooters; each partici-
pant will shoot 10 bullets. The five
highest scores will be mailed to
the other two schools who will send
their scores here, in this manner
the winner of the match will be
determined.
There will be no instruction for
beginners this week. The match
concludes the activities of the
club until next semester.
About this time winter skirts
and dresses are taking on a tired
look-brighten them up with a
smart leather belt, elever buttons,
or a new piece of costume jewelry.
You may discover when you've
finished that you like the outfit
better than ever.

CLASSIFIE~D ADVER1TISING

versity of Tucuman. Before that
she attended secondary and nor-
mal school.
Secondary school education in
Argentina is five years in length
and is divided into two periods.
The first three years is the same
fOr everyone, but the next two
years is alternative. Some stu-
dentsS tay on to receive their de-
(gree. called the ' .ac illir" and
others go to normal school if they
wish to teach in elementary
Scehools.
Afer receiving the "Bachil-
ler," id nts may go to any uni-
versity. if they wish to teach in
seC(Oldary schools, they must re-
ceive the degree of Professor in
whaLever subject they wish to
teach from the Faculty of Phil-
osophy and Letters. Faculty,
frni the Spanish word "facul-
tad," means schoal, as different
from our sense of the word.
On Aug. 28 Miss Sastre left
Buenos Aires by plane, and-after
a brief stopover in Miami, Fla., and
Washington, D. C., arrived in Ann
Arbor on Sept. 18.
"There are some wonderful
things here I would like to have
in my ofa country," Miss Sas-
tre . tatud."There is; more gen-
eral order and =more freedom in
everything here, particularly in
« reUgion. Students here can
choose their own subjects. At
home the subjects in our partic-
ular plan of study are compul-
sory."
The student government at uni-
versities in Argentina is quite
strong. Each faculty or school
within the university is governed
by a council, made up of seven or
eight professors and three stu-
dents. The dean of the school is
also a member of the council.
Every student in each school is a
member of a student union, and
these unions make up the Univer-
sity Federation of Students. The
members of this federation in turn
are automatically made members
of a National Federation of Stu-
dents, which lately has been con-
ducting student strikes against
the unfair practices of the national
government against the country's
universities.

!Officers Elected
The Ball and Chain Club elect-
ed officers for the spring semester

treasurer, Mrs. Richard B. Strib-
ley, Pittsfield Village.

organized in the fall of 1945under
the name Veterans' Wives' Club.
It is a purely social club and the
members are all wives of student
veterans enrolled at the Univer-
sity.
