OF ILLINOIS E. 4 fiommfl-_hflh'& E 'im-u-.ndm'; Fa e 4s 'm': Jaw. _ Urbana, IIl., Dec. 4.--A good number of women at the University of Illinois evidently do not believe the old say-- ing that "Woman's Place is in the Home," and the 20 preparing to be lawyers should be able to defend their case. + 4 Neither do they believe the only haven for them outside the home is the school. Big business is the goal of the largest number'of them, with the newspaper office running a close secand.

Only one woman has chosen to study banking. Two women are study-- Ing to become architects, one is in-- lerested in ceramic engineering and fourteen are preparing to be land-- scape gardeners. A Waukegan youth one time swore he'd "get" the fellow who won his girl away from'" him. The other fel-- low fnally married -- her.
