Collection Said To Be One
Of Finest Privately
Owned in U.S.
WILL PLAY HERE S00M
Phil Spitalny, famous NBC
dance band conductor, whose or
chestra is coming to a local ball
room Monday, June 1, is believed
to own the largest and most valu
able privately owned music library
in the United States.
Thousands of musical selections
and orchestrations are included in
the librarv. so many, in fact, that
when Spitalny left the Hotel Penn
sylvania in New York, where he
had previously conducted the roof
garden orchestra, ten especially
built trunks of unusual size were
needed for packing the library.
The manuscripts of the collection
are insured for $65,uuu.
At Spitalny's home in the Edge
water Beach hotel where his or
chestra has held sway during the
past winter, a special room was
turned ever to Spitalny for the
safe-keeping of his musical treas
ure. Built-in shelves, and a com
plicated index system were in
stalled. The librarv contains almost
every type of musical composition
ever written, from operatic scores
and symphonies to the latest popu
lar selections and orchestrations.
Spitalny has personally collected
the library during his years as one
of the country's outstanding or
chestra leaders, and the wide va
riety of its contents adds further
proof of the versatility and ability
to interpret any type of music for
which Spitalny is lampus.

AVith this issue, Tho Daily Nebraskan officially ends
ils existence for the second semester period of 1931. No
more papers will bo printed after this morning. Over the.
shouts of relief, the tears, and tho pounding of type
writers, we would like to make ourselves heard to express
thanks for the fine co-operation displayed by the staff
during the semester past.
Koporters, a few especially, news editors, women's
editor, sports editor, columnists, and all are to bo com
Vlimented. We are sorry we cannot say more. AVe have
surely enjoyed working with you and we hope that the
joy has been at least partially shared.
Hefore we go, we would also like to thank tho adver
tising staff for their splendid eo-operation these last few
days in making right column papers possible. They're
really not a bad lot, however, and though the old news
business side fight will probably go on forever, we have
a pretty soft spot in our hearts for our business staff.
That's about all. now. It probably should have been
all several paragraphs back. Hut at any rate adois
good luek and a happy future this is for everyone!

AM DISCUSS POINT
SYSTEMFORACTIVITIES
Board Members Settle On
Number Offices Coeds
May Hold.
HAVE SPECIAL MEETING
A special meeting of the A. W.
S. board was held Thursday noon
to complete the discussion of the
regulations of the point system for
women. It will read in this man
ner, "Candidates for offices or
membership must see that they
will be eligible within the point
system, if they should secure the
office, before they file. If a stu
dent has her quota in points or is
over pointed, nominations must
not be accepted until sufficient
offices have been resigned to make
her eligible. After a warning, all
violations will be subject to pen
alty by the A. W. S. court." This
new regulation is intended to di
vide activities, because, should it
be necessary, a candidate must re
sign before the election.
It was also decided to keep the
presidency of W. A. A. at eight
points and that of Y. W. C. A. at
ten. Editor and business manager
of the Daily Nebraskan and Awg
wan would also be deserving of
ten points.
Ideas for new freshman activi
ties to be sponsored by the A. W.
S. board were given by Margaret
Upson, chairman of the freshman
activity committee and were fol
lowed by a discussion by the
board.
