Plans Proceed
For Builders'
Pep Meeting
School spirit will be running
at high tide when the Builders
pep convention gets underway
March 15-18.
Scheduled to take place during
the State Basketball tournament,
the program will be held on a
grand scale meeting of Nebraska
high school cheerleaders and
sponsors.
Letters fent out by the Build
ers extended an invitation to
every school in the state to at
tend the mass meeting.
Other organizations will help
carry out the elaborate program
that has been planned. The Corn
Cobs, Tassels and yell squad will
lead the prep groups in various
discussions concerning constitu
tions, uniforms, finances, rallies
and other problems that might
confront a high school prep or
ganization. Tom Novak and other Ne
braska athletes will present
talks, and University cheerlead
ers will lead a mass rally to cli
max the event
According to Jim Williams,
Builders committee chairman,
the idea for such a convention
lias been "on the fire" for some
time and now will become a ac
tuality. The entire program has been
designed primarily to serve a
three-fold purpose: It will give
each school in the state a chance
to improve its organization; it
will enable the high schools to
become better acquainted with
each other; and it will strengthen
the link between high school
Students and the collegiate Ne
braskans. Male AnimaVs

never been sble to ihrow a ball

One thing the test did show
that favored the boys was a su

long run, it doesn't show too

Love Unsafe for Uninformed;
Look Before a Leap in Library
It's quite possible to be In
love and completely lack un
derstanding of the situation; it's
equally easy to be in Love and
face a similar problem.
Love with a capital "L"
fers, of course, to Love Library,
home of hapless underclassmen
with term paper troubles and
haven of the more businesslike
University students. To any per
sons who missed, escaped or
avoided a tour as a class project.
the library can be a pretty con
fusing place.
We would not say this unless
we had personally observed it,
but it is possible to be on the
University campus for four
years and to be a member of a
well-known senior honorary
not that in itself is a particular
mark of intelligence without
understanding even the simplest
library procedures. It happened
last year.
Senior Lost In Library,
The graduating senior dropped
into the humanities reading room,
on second floor, one afternoon
and evidently spotted a book
which interested her. This re
minded her that she needed some
references for her term report,
which must have been her first
and she began her search for
information. One of my friends
met th? perplexed girl in
hall.
"The book I want isn't in
there," she said, pointing toward
the reading room. "Where do you
suppose I could find it?"
The friend tentatively sug
gested that she look in the card
catalog "Card catalog" registered
somewhere and the girl managed
to discover that her book was
not in any of the reading rooms
or branch libraries. (The ab
sence of any little colored half
cards just in front of the reg
ular book card gave her the
clue.) Your book is in the
stacks," the friend explained.
"How do I get in to find it?"
was the next question.
YW Initiates
'Seniors-Only'
Commission
It's not taps for the second
semester seniors any more, ac
cording to YW executive secre
tary Ruth Shinn.
In former years we've given
our seniors a nod of thanks and
let them go out of our organiza
tion. Miss Shinn reports. But this
year the situation will be
changed.
A special commission group,
for seniors only, will meet every
Thursday at 4 p.m. in Ellen
Smith hall. The group will im
port speakers from various de
partments of the University. Its
subject matter will not be re
stricted to any particular field.

SURROUNDED BY BOOKS University students find them
selves among stacks of volumes of every description in the mod
ern Love library. The reading and study rooms shown above are
only part of the maze of knowledge to be found in the library's
vast facilities. To the college novice they present a seemingly un
digestible quantity of learning.
"You don't you have to fill
out a call slip and give it to the
librarian at the loan desk and
she'll send someone after it," the
friend patiently explained.
Friend Explains Card.
The book was duly brought in
and friend went back to check
ing out her own book. At an
insistent grinding of her elbow-
bone, she turned around. "What's
that?" the girl asked, pointing to
the little square of blue card
board. "That's a library card," friend
explained in withering tones.
Everybody has one.
"I don t, the senior said. "Can
use yours?"
Friend shoved it over and
soon forgot about the experience.
And, of course, having neglected
to explain one little fact, friend
received a post card some days
later informing her that she had
small library fine to, pay. By
the time the senior was con
tacted and produced the cash,
the amount had grown to a
week's cigarette money.
Learn System Early.
The moral to all this is find
out now how the library works
early in the game and make it
work for you. for if it works
against you. you may find it hard
on both your pocketbook and
your friendships. .
Books are placed in Love Li
brary according to a divisional
plan in four large reading rooms
riaqe and job opportunities,"
said Miss Shinn, "but the com
mission will be left wide open
for any subject the girls would
like to discuss."
The commission group Is open
to second semester seniors who
are Y members and to any girl
interested in its work.
"This is the first time anything
of this sort has been tried and
from the people we've talked to
we expect a pretty enthusiastic
response." Miss Shinn added.

humanities, science, social
studies and education. This is
done to break down the barriers
between students and books. Re
lated books, periodicals and ref
erence books are conveniently
grouped for the use of students
who need only ws!k to a shelf
to choose one, and start reading.
Additional study rooms on the
ground floor are for students who
want to concentrate on their
own textbooks.
The library has space for over
800,000 books and documents and
now contains the majority of the
half million books which com
prise the University libraries. It
has been in use as a library since
1945, when it was reconverted
from wartime use as an ASTP
barracks.
Completed in 1943 when the
army moved in, the library was
erected with the gift of $850,000
from the state of Don L. Love,
for many years a prominent Lin
coln lawyer and banker, who
was also twice mayor of the city.
