The USDA War Board has
asked that the soybean acreage be
increased by one-half in Nebraska
for the year 1942. The rrowrrn'

increasing mis acreage. This fact
has been indicated bv the number
of seeds that are being sent into the
state seed laboratory this spring.

Entries for Intradural
Debate Due Wednesday
Deadline for the receipt of en
tries in this year's intramural de
bate competition is Wednesday,
Leroy T. Laase of the speech de
partment, director of debating,
announced. In the tournament the
question will be "Resolved: that
congress should enact legislation
providing for the conscription of
labor (men and women) for the
prosecution of the war."
If there is sufficient interest
shown by men, women will be al
lowed in intra-mural debating just
as they are allowed in intercol
legiate debating.
Each team will consist of two
speakers, with eight minute con
structive speeches and four minute
rebuttals. Substitutions of person
nel mav be made from round to
round providing the names are
included on tne original entry list.
Teams Eliminated.
The schedule will be conducted
on a round robin basis, if the num
ber of entries permit, otherwise
on a double elimination basis. As
in the past, the debates will be
held in the houses or tne arrirma
tive teams. At the close of the
season a rotating trophy, won

Jesse Believes
War Reading
Has Purpose
New Library Assistant
Asserts Times Are Not
Conducive to Browsing
Library reading must become
more purposeful in war since the
times are not as conducive to gen
eral browsing, believes William J.
Jesse, new assistant director of
libraries who took up his work
on the campus last week. He takes
the post formerly ruled by Dr.
Stephen A. McCarthy who has be
come acting director since the res?
ignation of R. A. Miller.
He expressed great interest In
working with the divisional read
ing rooms planned for the new
Don L. Love Memorial library now
under construction on the campus.
Such a scheme was inaugurated
in 1938 at Brown university in
Providence, R. I., where Jesse for
merly was head of the readers'
division, and circulation was in
creased some 75 percent by 1940,
he reports.
He cautioned against expecting
such sudden results at Nebraska,
however, since the war is bring
ing unpredictable changes to edu
cational institutions and their stu
dent bodies.
Jesse praised the plans for the
new university library as having
been started long enough ago and
worked on by enough well in
formed and interested men to give
an ideal building for this campus.
He is pleased at the "universal
enthusiasm" for the building
voiced not only by students and
faculty members but by Lincoln
citizens who seem to be following
its progress with great interest.
1942 Slimmer
School Session

Session of the 1942 summer
school will not be altered in any
way, it was learned in a prelimi
nary announcement of the regis

present war conditions, as the plan
adopted in 1941 will be continued
in 1942. School will consist of an
eight weeks and a five and one
half weeks session.
The recitation hour has been
lengthened from a 50 minute per
