)URSES FOR EVERY INTEREST:
Physical Education Requirements To Be Met by Coeds
'U' Gives Loans, Scholarships
By DEEDY ROBERTSON
Every coed at the University
must successfully complete a two-
semester physical education course
for two hours a week without cred-
it before she can graduate.
The year is divided up into four
ouarters. During the fall and
spring quarters, sports that -can
be participated in out-of -doors
are elected, while during the win-
ter periods, indoor sports are
chosen.
Designed to appeal to varied in-
terests, the courses offered are in
individual and dual sports, swim-
ming, diving and water safety,
team games, dancing, outing activ-
ities and body mechanics classes.
Each semester is split into two
periods, one consisting of outdoor
activities and the other of indoor
sports. A total of four eight-week
periods completes the requirement.
Popular Sports Offered
Among the most popular of the
sports in which elementary, inter-
mediate and advanced courses are
offered are tennis, badminton, rid-
ing, swimming and golf.
Some of the sports available dur-
ing the winter indoor periods are
basketball, elementary ice-skating,
diving, water safety instructor's
course, figure skating, volleyball,
lifesaving, dance worlhop, syn-
chronized swimming, m o d e r n
dance composition and American
country dancing.
Courses in archery, field hockey,
lacrosse, soccer-speedball, tennis,
riding and golf are offered in the
fall and spring outdoor periods.
Dance Lessons Available
One of the few courses which
continues for the whole semester
is square and social dancing. Men
and women students together learn
the basic steps of the tango, rhum-
ba, samba, fox trot, waltz, jitter-
bug, Charleston and square dance.
One of the few evening courses
offered, it is usually scheduled
from 7 to 8 p.m. Monday.
Some of the most interesting
courses available are outing activ-
ities. Hiking, bicycling and camp-
craft are offered during the fall
and spring.
Posture Improvement
In the posture, figure and car-
riage class special attention is giv-
en to individual needs. Anyone who
is posture or figure conscious can
be helped. Included in the program
are methods of relaxation and the
mechanics for doing everyday tasks
correctly.
One of the most practical
courses for coeds is recreational
leadership. Through class and out-
side projects in the area of games,
singing, star study, square dancing,
crafts, arts, nature and outing, ac-
tual experience is gained.
In the speech category, a physi-
cal education course is offered in
which techniques of bodily move-
ment are applied to problem of
staging.
In an attempt to help students
meet college expenses, the Univer-
sity has made available various
scholarships, loans, and part-time
employment.
Realizing -that this is an import-
ant problem, the Office of the
Dean of Women devotes much time
to helping women with their fi-
nancial difficulties.
For coeds entering the Univer-
sity for the first time, assistance
is offered in the form of Regents-
Alumni Scholarships, awarded sen-
iors graduating from Michigan
high schools and Michigan Public
Junior College Scholarships.
Local Grants Given
Women often receive grants
sponsored by
also.
local alumni groupsI
Upperclasswomen are eligible for
numerous scholarships in varying
amounts, some of which are desig-
nated for students in special
schools.
Defined as "outright payment of
money by the University to a stu-
dent who has been selected for
such aid," these awards are usual-
gr made on the basis of need,
scholastic ability and character.
93 Scholarships Available
There are 93 scholarships made
available for men and women
throughout the University in gen-
eral.
Loans are made from funds set
aside for worthy students. Detailed
information concerning obtaining
and repayment of these loans is in-
cluded in the University publica-
tion on student loan funds.
Many coeds find that they can
increase their finances by obtain-
ing part-time jobs. The Dean of
Women's Office keeps a list of
employment available and will help
any woman find work.
Because of the scholastic strain
of college life, coeds are advised
to plan on earning no more than
one-half of their living expenses.
Freshman women are limited to
10 hours weekly, while upperclass-
women may not be employed more
than 21 hours per week, although
these rules vary with 'need and
ability.
Among the opportunities avail-
able for part-time employment are
clerical jobs in University depart-
ments, waitressing in dormitories
or restaurants, aiding in hospitals
or clerking in stores.
Jobs for Students
Coeds may also obtain room and
board jobs, baby-sit, . do light
housework or work in a library.
Women who would like to work
are urged to contact the Office of
the Dean of Women as soon as
possible for there are a great num-
ber who seek employment.
If financial difficulties should
arise while at the University, coeds
are advised to consult Dean of
Women Deborah Bacon at her of-
fice in the Administration Build-
ing.

Playing an important part in
University life, the League Com-
munity Services Committee offers
coeds an opportunity to contribute
their services to various campus
and community projects.
During the first two weeks of
the fall semester aquestionaire
will be sent by the Committee to all
women on campus.
Interested students will then
have an opportunity to indicate
the type of volunteer work which
they prefer.
Volunteer Recruiting
The Committee helps recruit
volunteers for several areas from
the information received from
these questionaires.
Women are needed to act as
hostesses at parties for the pa-
tients at the Speech Clinic. Acting
as hostesses at the weekly Veter-
ans' Readjustment Center dances
coeds will have a chance to catch
up on the latest dance steps while
rendering a valuable service.
Another area in which the Com-
munity Service Committee partici-
pates is that of recruiting waitress-
es to serve at various league teas
and banquets. This type of job
is paid by the hour.
Hospital Service
A very important aspect of the
Committee's activities is its Hos-
pital Volunteer Service program.
Women who can contribute two
or three hours a week are needed
for this type of work.
There are opportunities for vol-
unteer workers in most of the de-
partments of the University Hos-
pital and Out-Patient Clinic.
The hospital volunteer performs
such jobs as writing letters, shop-
ping for and reading to patients.
Bridge Lessons
To Be Presented
During Semester
Those coeds who are interested
in learning to play bridge, or who
wish to improve their knowledge
of the game may enroll in lessons
sponsored by the League.
Every semester the League offers
these lessons, which are given in
two sections, beginners and ad-
vanced.
Basic principals of the game are
taught first, then more compli-
cated methods. In this way stu-
dents progressively become more
adept at the game as time passes.
According to the League com-
mittee in charge of the lessons,
bridge instruction provides know-
ledge of the fundamentals of the
game, and also affords an oppor-
tunity to make new friends.
Bridge is a source of fun and
relaxation throughout the year,
especially during exam time study-
ing, committee members empha-
sized.
Other duties may include assisting
teachers and chaplains, wheeling
children to and from school and
taking the library carts to patients
bedsides.
In addition volunteer service also
affords fun and personal enjoy-
ment to those who offer their
services.
