Club Dances
Campus Casbah Designed
For Weekly Entertainment
HE CAMPUS CASBAH, student
soft drink night club originat-
ed last year, will again open its
doors for weekly Friday and Sat-
urday night dances, beginning Fri-
day, Sept. 26 in the League Ball-
room, according to Carla Mullen-
dore, Casbah chairman.
Designed to relieve the dearth
of entertainment facilities on
weekends, the Casbah features
weekly floorshows, refreshments,
and tables lining the dance floor
where students -may relax. The
orchestra which will furnish music
for the affairs will be announced
later.
Plans are being made to place
new permanent decorations in
the ballroom by fall. Among the
plans are curtains surrounding
the bandstand. A deep red vel-
vet drop will be found over the
top, with curtains of the same
material at the sides of the
bandstand.
The floorshow, which features
new talent each 'week, is made up
entirely of student entertainers.
Tryouts are held weekly for any-
one interested in participating in
the programs. Announcements
for the time and place of the aud-
itions will be made in The Daily.
THE CASBAH; a project of
League Council, is a non-prof-
it function. Any funds are used
for improving the facilities.
In addition to the entertainment
provided by the dance, other fa-
cilities of the building will be
opened for student use on Friday
and Saturday night. Hours in
the League Grill will coincide with
those of the Casbah. The Grand
Rapids Room will be available for
bridge and table games. Cards
will be furnished by the League..
Classical music may be heard in
the second floor lounge.
Members of the Ballroop
committe assisting Miss Mul-
lendore consist of Audrey But-
tery, floorshow chairman; Mary
Lou Hill, assistant; Ann Nichols,
decorations chairman; Rosalind
Rittenbom, publicity chairman;
and Joan Kampmire, assistant.
The opening of the Casbah last
year marked the first all campus
League social event to take place
every weekend since 1942. At that
time, the regular League Dances,
managed by the business manager
of the League, were discontinued.
due to the war.
Women may not enter the front
door of the Michigan Union. For
Union dances and other. special
occassions they may legally enter

Formal Rushing
Deferred formal rushing will
again be the procedure this year;
according to Jane Wetmore,
chairman of the Panhellenic rush-
ing committee.
According to this program, for-
mal sorority rushing will not start
until the beginning of the spring
semester. There will be informal
rushing in the fall term for those
houses who wish to participate,
but first semester freshmen are
not eligible for this rushing per-
iod. It will begin as soon as or-
ganization is' possible.
Informal rushing will again
be held in the spring term im-
mediately after formal rushing.
All coeds registered for formal
rushing will not have to re-reg-
ister for informal rushing.
The Panhellenic Association has
decided to stress the honor sys-
tem in preference to the contact
rules system. There are three con-
ditions under the honor system.
First, independent women are not
to enter sorority houses; second,
sorority women are not to enter
dormitories; and third, the two
should not strive to form new
friendships. This system is effec-
tive as soon as school starts.
Sororities will strive to create
as informal an atmosphere as
possible during the rushing per-
iod.

MEMBERS of the Merit-Tutor-
ial Committee in the League
aids deficient students in finding
tutors and keeps the activity files
up to date for the use of students
and campus organizations.
The Merit section of the com-
mittee keeps a complete file of all
undergraduate women and the
extra - curricular activities in
which they have participated. The
cards bear each coed's picture,
address, phone number and class.
With these cards are person-
nel reports made out by the
various chairmen of committees,
presidents of clubs and heads of
other activities. These person-
nel reports are sent into the
committee at the end of every
semester and are used to com-
pile each women's activity point
record. The reports are also
used for the benefit of the Of-
fice of the Dean of Women, the
Social Director of the League,
Judiciary Council, League com-
mittees and honor societies, who
by referring to the files, may
find just the coed they need to
work on some activity. The files
are also used as references by
employers of Michigan gradu-
ates.
Not only the activities in which
a coed has taken part, but also a
report on how well she did the
job is kept in the records. These
files are very important, and it
is to each coed's advantage that
her card be kept up to date, ac-
cording to Donis Murray, chair-
man of the Merit-Tutorial com-
mittee.
ALL STUDENTS desiring tutors
contact the Tutoring service at
the League and receive the name
and telephone number of a tutor.
Tutors and students make their
own arrangements concerning
time and place of tutoring. Tu-
tors receive 75 cents per hour and
tutoring ends two weeks before
final examinations begin.
To be eligible to tutor a student
must have received an A in the
course or a B if it is his major.
Tutors are available at the be-
ginning of each semester for all
students except freshmen, who
may tutor after their five-weeks
marks come out.
The bulletin board in the Un-
dergraduate Office of the
League is kept up to date by
the committee. Information on
all League activities may be
found there.
In addition to their regular
duties, the members of the com-
mittee have undertaken the job
of setting up an information
booth in the Merit-Tutorial Room
in the Undergraduate Office of
the League. The booth is equipped
with information on practically
everything on campus and in Ann
Arbor that would be of interest
to students.
M ERIT-TUTORIAL Office is
open every afternoon during
week except Saturday. The com-
mittee is an integral part of
League activities and is an op-
portunity for coeds to start out
in League activities and get to
know how the organization works.
Miss Murray will be aided by
four assistants. They are Ilona
Fietze, Ginny Nicklas, Corinne
Schild and Shirley Meyer.

move the books at any time.
