SATURDAY, AUG. 12, 1939 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE TWENTY-THREE SATURDAY, AUG. 1Z, 1939 PAGE TWENTY-THREE -5 League Activities Will Feature New Tutorial System In Fall Honor Society Women Offer Free Coaching 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 President Of League Judiciary Head Presides Over Assembly Heads Panhellenic Undergraduate Council Offers Governing Body For Women Guiding hand for University wom- '40, is orientation adviser for trans- en is the Undergraduate Council fers but not a member of the Coun- with its members representing groups cil. from the entire vomen's student The Undergraduate Council ap- body on campus. proves all recommendations given to The Council is composed of 15 it by the Judiciary Council for the members, headed by the president major positions in all class projects of the League.

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.
