League Is Activity Cente-
For University Women
Marks A Prerequisitc.
Heading League activities for the
fall is the new tutorial system, under
the direction of Alberta Wood, '40.
Freshman women, having difficulty
with their studies will under thiE
system receive tutoring by womer
in the honor societies. In order foi
women to be eligible for campus acti-
vities, it is essential that they keer
up on their marks, Miss Ethel Mc-
Cormick, social director of the
League, pointed out.
Undergraduate Center
The League is the center of all
activities of the undergraduate wo-
men on campus, offering facilitie
for extra-curricular activities and
recreation and headquarters of thr-
government which serves the women
of the University.
Upon her enrollment in the Uni-
versity, every woman student auto-
matically becomes a member of the
League and at the completion of four
years on campus, receives with her
degree the understanding that she is
a life member, her dues automatical-
ly paid in full.
Merit System Important
Of great importance is the merit
system of the League. This begins
automatically when every woman en-
rolled in the University reaches her
second semester on campus, and con-
tinues until she graduates. It of-
fers complete equality in the matter
of participation in college activities,
and the complete record of hours
spent and work accomplished in these
activities by each woman, provides
the basis for selection of candi-
dates for major League positions and
membership in the honorary societies
for Michigan women.
For every hour a woman spends
in working on an activity and for the
efficiency with which she executes
her duties, points are awarded her
and kept as a permanent record by
the merit system committee. These
points, which may also be earned for
sports, debating, glee club or news-
paper work, are considered in ap-
pointing women to fill campus posi-
tions.
The numerous faciilties for recrea-
tion, rest and study offered by the
League include such things as the
library, cafeteria, beauty shop and

he garden. The League Library,
which is located on the third floor
eas opened three years ago, and is
lotable as the one library on campus
where women can study in deep easy
chairs with true informality. Any
of the approximately 1,300 books
which fill the shelves in the library
may be taken out for two weeks, or
read in the room. The library is
open from 12:30 to 9:30 p.m. daily,
except Sunday.
Cafeteria And Beauty Shop
The cafeteria and beauty shop are
not exclusively for undergraduate
women. Both the walled-in garden
on the east side and the chapel of
the League are favorite places for
weddings of students and alumnae.
Che chapel, also used for pledging and
initiation ceremonies of honor groups,
was given in' memory of Charlotte
Blagden, who died during her term
of office in 1925 as president of the
League, after materially aiding to-
ward the completion of the building
itself. The garden is used in the
spring and fall for teas and recep-
tions.
Ballroom Holds 800
The ballroom, which holds 800 per-
sons, on the second floor of the
League, is the scene of the Panhellen-
ic and Assembly Balls, the Sopho-
more Cabaret and the regular Friday
and Saturday night dances.
All plays given by the Michigan
Repertory Players, Play Production
and the Dramatic Season players are'
given in the Lydia Mendelssohn The-
atre in the north end of the League.
The Junior Girls Play and orientation
lectures also take place in the the-
atre.
