THURSDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1952 T HE MICHIGAN DAILY PAK FIVE Coeds Hold First Exchange Dinner Internationa I 4) 1 * * * Two Groups Plan Project t Under the sponsorship of As- sembly and Panhellenic Associa- tions, a new plan of exchange din- ners between dormitories and sor- orities was tried out Tuesday night. Purpose of the dinners was to promote friendly relations between the two women's groups on cam- pus, and give coeds an opportunity to meet new people. At this first dinner twenty-four houses took part. From 15 to 25 women exchanged from each iouse and were entertained with a meal and informal get-together afterward. In many houses hostesses were in charge of escorting the guests to dinner and seeing that they met other coeds in the house. Guests stayed after the dinner for coffee and informal meetings with their hostesses. Group sing- ing around the piano was started in most of the dormitories and sororities. The exchange dinners were planned by Barbara Wagner of Panhellenic and Mimi Blau of As- sembly. This first dinner was scheduled for one night to start the program, and both women hope that more dinners can be ar- # ranged later this semester and next semester. Through the social chairmen or activities chairmen in the dormi- tories and sororities, some of the houses that were busy this par- ticular night could plan exchange dinners. Miss Blau and Miss Wagner both felt that the plan was a success- ful one, and achieved the purpose of creating an informal and friendly atmosphere between sor- orities and dormitories. Diane Harris, president of Pan- hellenic Association and Adrienne Shufro, president of Assembly As- sociation issued a joint statement expressing their opinion that the idea Worked out successfully and was a forward step in establishing fine relations between the two organizations. -Daily-Larry Wilk CHIT-CHAT-A typical scene at a sorority-dormitory exchange dinner this week shows coeds gathered around for coffee after dinner.

I Mass Meeting Planned To Fill JGP Positions Too much time is spent voting on situations and not enough time is used for thinking up solutions to problems, according to Dean Deborah Bacon, guest speaker at yesterday's Board of Representa- tives meeting. To remedy' this dilemma Dean Bacon brought up four major campus subjects that need orig- inal student thinking. Number one on her list is the automobile referendum. The Dean advocates that students discuss the parking and insurance prob- lems and figure out just what reg- ulations, if any, they think there should be. Question number two concerns study patterns and facilities on 1'f' 1i For years we have earned a reputation for our assortment of fine jewelry, suit. able for engraving.

Specific data has to be gathered here as to where, when and how students do their home- work. These answers are important be- cause when schoolwork has to be done University students can not lock themselves up in the peace and quiet of their own rooms as was done in high school, she said. Cheating constitutes the third controversial topic. While the. Deans are interested in who cheats and why, they are also con- cerned with the attitudes of the person who watches this cheat- ing go on. The fourth major subject in- volves the social-sexual behaviour problem. Here, according to Dean Bacon, the authorities are more interested in what the standard is, rather than what it should be and are interested in comparing the students here and at home. Early in her speech the Dean emphasized the importance of the League Nominating and Inter- viewing Committee and Board of Representatives as the sources of power in women's government on this campus. At the outset of the meeting, Nancy Rein, chairman of the fac- ulty-student lounge committee an- nounced that the lounge would be open from 8 a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. beginning Mon- day morning. Already one sociology professor has held a class in the lounge and it was reported that the informal atmosphere made a big hit with the students and teacher. If large groups desire use of the room, they should call Miss Vyn at the League and make an appointment. The next meeting of the Board will be at 4 p.m. Wednesday, De- cember 17.
