P ERHAPS MORE than any one
thing the mixers, suppers, bridge
and dancing lessons sponsored by the Michigan
League were responsible for making the 1934 Sum-
mer Session the social success that it was. Many
students participated in and enjoyed these activ-
ities. Few realize who was behind them, responsible
for their success.
Each summer the University is faced with the'
problem of acquainting students with each other,
of entertaining them, of making their stay here
enjoyable. This problem is more difficult in the
summer because most of the students are either
new or have been away for some time, and be-
cause of the short period in which to work.
Although it is really not their responsibility,
University officials have taken it over and handled
the problem well. The most credit for this, no
doubt, is due to Miss Ethel McCormick, Social
Director of the Summer Session.
Iatimately acquainted with the situation here,
as a result of her many years experience, she is to
be congratulated for the manner in which she has
conducted League activities this summer.

HAPPY LANDINGS!
WE CAN'T GET very sentimental over the close
of Summer Session - not with a month's vacation
to look forward to. But, oh, how that month will
fly. Most of the Repertory Players will then return
to teaching school, or being taught - one or
the other. Here's what the future holds for some
of them.

We don't see much reason for bothering with a
review today with everyone packing up and leaving
town, but for those few who remain and have
inclinations to celebrate, we can think of no more
fitting entertainment than the rollicking "She

It's the sort of show the doctor ordered for
post-examination blues. If you think you flunked
