Possibilities of a national univer sity book exchange loomed on the horizon Tuesday as Lorraine Hitch cock, member of the student coun cil book exchange committee, com pleted a survey of colleges which revealed that most universities con tacted were in favor of an organi zation by which schools could ex change out-of-date text books di rectly with each other. "At present the only way second hand book exchanges can dispose of texts, is by selling them to job bers. We believe that-by the direct method of exchange, we can keep down the cost of overhead and thus offer books to students at a more economical rate," stated Miss Hitchcock. Prepare Petition. Work on the management plan for the proposed shop, forged ahead Tuesday with committee members drafting a petition for considera tion of the plan by the board of regents and will be submitted to the administration in the near fu ture, according to Virginia Selleck, chairman of the committee. "The plan, in its present form, asks for a book exchange to be modeled after the regent bookstore plan, and provides for eventual consolidation with that organiza tion," explained Miss Selleck. "A definite percentage is to be sub tracted from the original price of each book in order to cover salaries and overhead costs. The plan as it now stands calls for a definite cash payment for books." Signatures on petitions showing student support of the project con tinued to increase Tuesday as members of the petition committee contracted all students voting at the student council elections.
