'Homecoming'
A' 'he Library
i'linii- time iil'o the t) ea whs issued lor I IK'
return of ;i large iiiiiiiIxt of books which iiatl
Wen curried away from the city library. These
books, lost tine to iieg licence oil the pari of a
iinmWr of inliviluals who lial lieen given an
opMirtiinity to use the facilities of lhe library
lotal 8.14(1." To date only -! hooks have been
returned, in spite of the fact that the library
him been conduct iny "homecoming" week for
all books overdue or taken without record.
This is being done with the provisions that no
(iiesli(iiiK will be asked and no penalties ex
jieted. yet the response is exceedingly poor.
According to reports issued by the city
library, it is no secret that great quantities
of city library books are stacked away in
bookcases and attics of most organized houses
as well as smaller numbers in private li
braries. The greater part of these losses is
attributed to the carelessness of individuals
who unintentionally carried away the books
with other belongings and then, because of
the embarrassment involved, failed to return
them. Many of the losses were undoubtedly
due to intentional thefts. Still others oc
curred as the result of students checking out
books, losing them, and when finding them
again, failing to return them because of the
large fine attached.
The city library is a city institution, sup
ported by city funds; yet it offers to outstate
students the same borrowing privileges that
Lincoln taxpayers are accorded. Students are
offered reading and reference services h'riday
and Saturday nights ami Sundays, when they
are not permitted the use of the university
library. It offers a four week loan period which
is two wcekN longer than the average period.
Therefore, it seems only fair that studenls
should (diserve the rules and co-operate in re
turn for these privileges. As Ion;; as the city
library serves as a necessary supplement to the
university library, and as long as students
i vail themselves of the facilities offered by the
city library, it will be their responsibility to
see that books are returned.
There are frequent occur? ences in w'tiich
a careless student discommodes fellow stu
dents and instructors by keeping overdue
books and books not properly checked out.
Two months ago the city library took a re
serve on a book requested by a university
instructor of English. The book could not
be located and the library attempted to re
order the book. It was out of print and
could not be purchased, thus, the instructor
was forced to go without the assistance of
fered by the book. Two days ago, as a result
of "homecoming," the book was returned by
a student whose roommate had left it behind
last year. When the library called the in
structor about its return, it was too late for
the instructor to use it for his purposes.
We've reached that, period of the school
vear now which is frequently labeled as term
paper season. Perhaps, already a number of
students have met with the difficulty of not br
ine "ble to find the book for which they were
looking. No doubt those students' fraternity
brothers id' ten years gn left them in the
attics of their fraternity houses where they
have ceased to do anyone any pood. And while
we're on the nubject, why not return the hook
vou carelessly carried away last year when you
were writing a paper on lioulder dam? An
other freshman is sure to want it thin year.
The library is asking presidents of or
ganized houses to aid in the return of books
by checking up in their own houses and an
nouncing it to members of their various
groups. The library is extending its "home
coming" drive until May 14. The procedure
for the return of books is simple and entails
only a moment's effort on the part of those
returning lost volumes. Students need only
to call B1635 and someone will call for the
books. Should students be hesitant about fol
lowing this simple procedure, they may bring
the books to the Daily Nebraskan office in
University hall, and the volumes will be re
turned to the city library.
Itcgarellcss of what procedure the students
may choose to follow in the return of the books,
it is i eeer ::i r;.' thai they be returned immedi
ately, .''.n iir s; 1. 1; b'o opportunity lias been
oiTcrod slut't nts thru the use of the city library
ami it is important that students not only make
the most of this opportunity, but also play fair
with those who have made the opportunity
possible.

When the Sigma Nu's held their
Mother's Day dinner at the house
Sunday, there were home cagey
young men present. For some of
the proud mamas haven't yet dis
covered that their model sons
smoke. Ed Steeves had fun by of
fering the boys cigarettes right in
front of the doting parents. The
mothers might have been suspi
cious at Ed's unusual generosity,
but as far as we know they
weren't.
Phi Fsi's president, Roland Mc
Clymont, hung his pin on Eleanor
Rogers Sunday night, but he
wasnt of course aware of the
whole carload of Thcta's parked
right behind them watching the j
whole procedure until at one of
the more sentimental moments
somebody coughed. Who said there
Isn't a cough in a carload ?
The Sigma Nu's and Pi Phi's
had an hour dance Saturday night
which turned out to be pretty much
fun. Early in the evening the Fox
and the Wolfe, Helen and Jean,
were dancing together and just a
little later, Betty Orme's date had
a terrific time dragging her away
from the "beautiful Bus Knight."
SOOETY
Just about the most recent pin
hanging on the campus, that is
publically known is that of Carolyn
Kulesh, S. V. T., and Harry Gins
berg, Sammie. It was a surprise
to most of the girls except her
closest friends.
The Mothers club of Alpha Xi
Delta will meet Thursday, May
12, at 1:00 at the chapter houce.
The annual May luncheon will be
held at this time. The committee In
charge will be Mrs. H. B. Cook f.nd
Mrs. C. D. Leonard.
Zeta Beta Tau officers for the
coming year are: Stanley Sln.
burg, president; Bernard White,
vice-president; Robert Silvermiin,
treasurer; Robert Chen, necic.
tary; and Leonard Kriedel, hi.-
torlan,
With Ed Steeves' new Jeweled
pin, it make his pin even more
desirable. But the terrttle part of
it Is that he has been going around
proposing to all the girls. Suppose
r.ll of them would accept at cne
time.
Lila Katherine Kryger. better
known as "Pinky" and secretary
at the republican headquarters, an
swered the phone the other day f.t
the Chi O house by saying, "Re
publican headquarters." Too bad,
if Mrs. Cochran had happened to
call Just then. And then when
Ruthie Stephens went home over
the week end, she ran to the phon
the moment it rang and said. "Chi
Omega."
kpces wobbletl in the third round,
tho, showed that he is no longer a
young man. Maybe too many
nights out were the cause of hi'
not being in shape. Anyway we'll
bet Marian Hoppcrt is certainly
going to be proud of the gold
medal that he won.
