1. THE MICHIGAN DAILY- PAGE SEV r A n S , w TRADITION TO TV: 'House Spirit' Discussed League to Exhibit Student Art (EDITOR'S NOTE-This is the sixth in a seri s on the Michigan House Plan of sidence halls.) By JOHN DAVIES Everything from house tradition to television figured in dorm lead- ers' explanations of the most im- portant reasons why some resi- dence halls have a lot of "house spirit" and others have practically none. Most commonly named reasons given in an informal survey of dorm leaders were house tradition, quality of leaders and house gov- ernments, size of the units and rate of turnover of the residents. . * * "NO HOUSE can have good spirit unless it has both active leaders and something in its tradi- tion-like a high athletic stand- ing-for its members to be proud of," the resident advisor of a West Quadrangle house said. Ray Litt, '52E, president of Strauss House and the East Quadrangle Council, felt that the proper atmosphere in the house was necessary for it to be an active one. "If a number of men partici- pate in house activities, there is a tendency for the others to do so as well. And freshmen coming into an active house assume that it's 'the thing to do'," Litt said. * *, * IF THE GROUP has something in common to begin with - such as being predominantly veterans. or graduate students, as in Alice Lloyd Halls' Palmer House - more spirit is usually evidenced. Activities the whole house can participate in also seem to help house spirit. An East Quad house- mother, for instance, reported that a television set has "helped the men know each other." And everybody seemed to agree that there was a large element of chance involved in forming "house spirit." (NEXT-Plans and changes in the women's dorms) Forty outstanding paintings by college students will be on exhibit today through May 8 in the second floor lobby of the League. The paintings which are being shown here under the sponsorship of the National Student Associa- tion and the Inter-Arts Union, were scheduled to appear last Sunday, but the exhibition was postponed due to delay in ship- ping. The forty paintings comprise an' NSA showing which was first ex- hibited at the national NSA con- gress last August.
