Ann Arbor Women To Sponsor New Group;
Preorganizational Meeting Will Air Objectives
A preorganizational meeting for
the coed branch of the League of
Women Voters will be held at 4:30
p. m. Wednesday in the League.
Any coeds who are interested
in beginning a University group
that will work with the Ann Arbor
section of the League may attend
the meeting.
AT THIS first meeting, plans
and objectives for the function
of the group will be discussed.
Sponsored by the local organiza-
tion, the coeds will probably study
campus representation issues on a
non-partisan level in addition to
political problems as the adult
group does.
Organized on three levels, the
League of Women Voters has
764 local organizations in 43
states in addition to the District
of .Columbia, Hawaii, and Alas-
ka- It includes in its member
ship 100,000 women who are in-
terested in promoting political
responsibility and an active in-
formed public in governmental
affairs.
Although the League remains
non-partisan on issues, a main
function includes the gathering
and publishing of information on
candidates and issues so that its
members may vote more intelli-
gently.
CONNECTED with no one party,
the group does encourage the
joining of political groups and tak-
ing an active role in the politics
of the day.
Programs of work and or-
gationalrstandards are'adopted
by the local and state meetings
and on the national levels by
conventions that are held every
two years. A Board of Directors
acts as a central cognating
group.
Members of the League also
work together in smaller close knit
groups. Towns and cities are di-
vided into areas which have their
own discussion meetings. Usually
working on a problem Xor a year,
'the group gathers information
that is presented to the other
groups too. The problems are al-
so shifted each year so that in
time the one discussion group will
have studied quite thoroughly sev-
eral issues.
* * * ,
ON A LOCAL level, the League
also sponsors and gives speeches
to schools and organizations to
further political interest and par-
ticipation.
The League was founded in
1920 by the leaders of the suf-
frage movement under Carrie
Chapman Catt as a memorial
to the women who helped win
the right to vote.
"Get out the Vote" was the early
slogan and objective of the League
as it first began its work in trying
to stimulate women to vote and
assume their places in the political
scheme.
ANOTHER attempt for an in-
formed electorate was the holding
of citizenship schools which be-
came annual events. They were
held on college campuses with out-
standing men in education and
politics as teachers.
The Ann Arbor League hopes
to encourage interest and par-
ticipation on a more modern level
by working with college women
who will have an opportunity to
study and learn about voting be-
fore they leave the campus to
take their place in other com-
munities.

Women Lead
India Reform
Women are Playing a major role
-in the social reforms and political
advances being made in India to-
day.
The leading body of organized
women in India is the All-India
Women's Conference. Organized
in 1927. the Conference has grown
rapidly and now has over 25,000
members.
At first the Conference confined
itself to various aspects of the
advancement of women's educa-
tion. Recently the scope of the
Conference was widened to include
pressure for social reforms.
TIPS FOR TRIPS:
Solutions Seen to Packing Problem
Coeds are dusting off their suit-
cases this weekend in anticipa-
tom of the coming Spring vaca-
tion which starts Friday.
With many cars leaving for
Florida, the sunny South will be
one of the most popular gathering
places of University students next
week.
Many women students are look-
ing mournfully at their small suit-
cases and the huge pile of clothes
to go in them and wondering
how to make the most of their
luggage space.
Socks, handkerchiefs and other
small items slip neatly and easily
into the tips of shoes. Purses make
wonderful protectors for gloves
and evening purses.
Hats, items which are alwhys
a packing problem provide rest-
ing places for jewelry and small
cosmetic bottles (carefully sealed
to prevent spilling).
Experienced travelers say that
careful folding and placing is the
secret to arriving at their destina-
tion with wrinkle-free clothes and
neat orderly suitcases.
Tissue paper folded into dresses,
suits and blouses will help prevent
crushing and preserve pleates and
creases.
To help stretch a travel ward-
robe and increase the luggage
space, women students are eyeing
the advantages of separates they
can mix and match. Choosing one
concentrated color scheme helps
to decrease the number of shoes,
hats and purses that must be
taken.
Vera Maxwell, American dress
designer, fashioned a travel ward-
robe that can be worn in any
number of combinations all at
once or layer on layer. The entire
set was built around a single basic
dress.
Coeds heading for the Florida
beaches will find that the basic
essential for their wardrobe will
be bathing suits. The other nec-
essary addition to the Southern
wardrobe is an informal afternoon
dress for sight-seeing and danc-
ing.
