'Books Made Backwards?' Mislum
Maybe our books are madei
backwards.
At least, Frank A. Lundy, di
rector of the University libraries,
says a surprising number of peo
ple browse through books from
back to cover instead of vice
versa.
"And when it comes to maga
zines," librarian Lundy reports,
"I've noticed that more than half
of the readers work from back
to front."
Lundy says ha used to try to
figure out what was wrong with
people who look through books
and magazines backwards.
"And then," he explains. "I
found myself doing it and so I
decided that the trouble could
be with the publications and not
the readers. ,
At any rate, Lundy says so
many readers find it natural to
begin with the back of a book
that he wonders if some enter
prising publisher misht do well
to produce a book or magazine ippiTCC

University Ar t Galleries To Present
Contemporary Watercolor Exhibition
The University art galleries will
present a comprehensive exhibi
tion of watercolors Thursday
night at 8:30.
The show is "John Marin and
Contemporary Watercolor." Ac
cording to gallery director Nor
man A. Geske, Marin is the fore
most American waercolorist and
has received international recogni
tion for helping to make watpr-
color painting a popular medium
for artistic creation.
Approximately half the show
to comprised of Marin's works,
dating from 1910 to 1951. Marin
usually paints sea and land
scapes in the east and in New
Mexico. The fact that his works 1
have been exhibited in all re
gions of the United States, and
are known over half the world,
seems to indicate that his orig
inal technique has made his in
flence s lasting one.
By way of demonstrating Ma
rin's influence, the gallery staff
has devoted the rest of the ex
hibit to the works of younger con
temporary watercolorists who
have innovated on Marin's tech
niques. In the past half-century water
color painting has expanded, from
the original conception of a
simple medium, to include the use
of all forms of water-soluble pig'
ments, inks and even chalk.
Pieces for the exhibition were
collected from museums about the
country and art dealers in New
York City.
Three of the Marin pieces be
long to permanent University col
lections, two being from the Hall
Collection and one from the
Frances Sheldon Bequest.
Younger artists represented
include: Theodoros Stamos,
Lawrence Kupferman, Ethel Ed
wards, William Thom, Charles
Heidenreich, William Ki en-

UMT Plan Before Congress
Calls For 7Vi Years Reserve

Newest UMT plan, now before
congress, would control the future
of all U. S. boys in their mid
teens. The proposal calls for six months
Of training and seven and one-half
years of reserve for, with very
few exceptions for physical dis
ability, every man in the country
over 18 years..
Since this is an election year,
there may be some hesitation in
congress to pass the measure.

He will report to a nearby in

unit of service in which he
wishes to serve. But he has only
a SO per cent chance of being
assigned there. The army has
been assured one half of all in
ductees, while the navy, marines
and air force will get the rest.
In training, the inductee will be
treated like any recruit under the
present plan. The plans are to turn
out soldiers, sailors and airmen
quickly and efficiently.
The men wm receive ?30 a

These will have to be made up,
After the training, the UMT

be strongly urged to do.
2. Stay with the National Se
