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.

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.
