Western Sectional Convention
Hears Many Noted Artists
In Monday Meeting
MANY BELONG TO GROUP
The western sectional convention
of the American convention of the
American Federation of Arts was
opened Monday morning at the Lin
coln Hotel with an address of wel
come by Mayor Verne Hedge of Lin
coln. About 125 were present at the
opening session. Many of them were
university students. Welcome was

Librarian Says
No False Names
Arc To Be Used
Library patrons who have been in
the habit of signing false names and
addresses when drawing out books at
the University library must discon
tinue this practice or suffer the con
sequences, according to a notice sent
to the Daily Nebraskan by Gilbert
H. Doane, University librarian. The
following notice was sent out by Mr.
Doane yesterday.
"During the last few weeks sev
eral students have been securing
books from the library and its va
rious branches and signing false
names and fictitious addresses for
them. This is a practice which the
library and university authorities
cannot countenance. The librarian
and his assistants are attempting to
identify the handwriting used in the
various cases under consideration,
employing tht services of a hand
writing expert. If the individuals
are caught the librarian will recom
mend that they be summarily dealt
with by the University authorities
and he will cause to be written upon
their records this misdemeanour.
The librarian is assured by the ad
ministrative authorities that he will
have their backing in this matter.
"A student who will deliberately
sign a false name in order to secure
for his private use a book or books
which had been assigned to a class
for reading is not only dishonest, but
he is also thoroughly selfish, for he
is depriving the remainder of the
class from using that book and pos
sibly causing them to receive lower
grades because they have not had
the opportunity to do the assigned
reading in that book."
Museum Shows Film
At Program Sunday
The feature of the regular educa
tional program given in Morrill Hall,
Sunday afternoon was a moving pic
ture on "Abrasives". The picture
showed the uses of abrasives in the
industrial world. The meeting was
well attended, according to Mr. Col
lins, assirant curator of the museum.
