ON THIS Desk Editor Wagner ISSUE Night Editor Murray Wliv a University Policy of Peaceful Waiting? "Phnis for the tie-w lilirarv linvf hceii drawn 1o a roinarkalily fine decree the library Vlamiiii' cuiiiiiiillfo. The faults tf ihe old liuildimr have been interpreted coiredly and. nn paper, rectified: adequate space lias lioon pr- ided j'nr all phases f library use. and in stallation of. new machinations lias been plan ned -which will make the library one 1! 1lie 1'iiicst. in any educational institution. Tliere is no queslion in anyone's mind as to ihe need for ihis buidiiif.r. It has boon n eani 1 us battle cry for years. Everyone concedes lhat it sliould be built, everyone condemns 1he old library as unfit for use. everyone criti cizes everyone else for not doing- something .bout it. The library planning committor Las done something it lias drawn up the plans. yow the university will put on ils best smile end go before a muly elect ed legislature, pledged to reduce laxes in this year of drouth, plendinply 10 ask an appropriation. There probably will be 110 prolonged fight, no extended effort on the part of the univer sity. We will sit back and wait, and if Ihe appropriation is forthcoming, the school broad ens its grin: if it is not, the grin becomes me chanical and half silly like that of a child eaucht in the cookie jar. What this university needs in Ihe Nebras ka state legislature is a couple of pood lobby ists, to see that its interests are well taken care of. Student are attempting to pain an educa tion here in an overcrowded, poorly equipped institution. The lepislalure appropriates ap proximately enough to run the school as is. with no provision for the changing of the sta tus quo. luildings become worn out, arc ready 1o fall down, are carted half away, but arc still used because the legislature doesn't see fit 1o grant money for new buildings. This state boasts of its low 1ax rate. It boasts of being debt free. That may be very virtuous in a state, but the starvation of edu cation is not. The legislature must be made to realize lhat in order to continue 10 exist. 1 university must be provided with more liuiut ings. new and belter facilities. It was founded in wilh the idea of expansion behind it. Yet a new struclure has not been added to; the campus in almost a decade. High school students are enlering college in increasingly J larger numbers, and instead of enlarging in-t structorial staff to balance ihe increase in stu- ! dems. classes are enlarged to unwieldy sizes, entirely too huge tor manipulation or lor trio proper dissemination of information. Instead of building more classrooms 10 house new classes, some buildings are made a hodge podge of everything that can't find an other resting spot, so that Law building loday entertains classes in sociology, English, history and economics. There can be no expansion wilhout a vig orous, aggressive action on Ihe pr of the ad ministr,",lion. Classrooms and libraries can be planned and revamped and named a hundred limes over bet ore money will o appropriated lor IliOir construction. I Ins w ill lie true as long purchase of materials as the university s policy is one of. peacetul wait ins. The recently drawn plans for the library include a micro-photography outfit a device that permits ihe photography and screening of rare books, pace by page, (iilbert Donne, li brarian, expects this machine to be developed to a fine decree when ihe Nebraska library is built. We hate 10 be pessimist ic, but, Mr. Doane. if things are constructed around here as they usually are, the micro-photography machine will be obsolete when the new library is built. DIESEL COURSE TO 40 Instructional Facilities Re strict Enrollment in New Study. Because of limitations in in structional facilities, class member ship in the new three weeks' diesel engine short course to be spons ored by the mechanical engineer ing: department of the university Feb. 1 to 20 will be restricted to forty. According to Prof. J. V. Hancy, chairman of the depart ment, student selection will be based upon the following: first, practical experience of the can didate: second, occupation; and third, business connections in the I diesel field, plus an ability to read, write and understand arith metic. Several of the large middlewest- ern universities nave oecmea 10 offer the same course on the op eration and maintenance of diesel engines. The several large man ufacturing companies who are co operating with the schools will furnish a traveling laboratory and trained technicians, while the in structors of the schools will be in charge of classroom work. Professor Haney said the govern ing board from these co-operating schools will meet soon to com plete final details. Already numerous inquiries have been received by the university. Application blanks will be avail able soon. Course requirements reveal there will be plenty of work with little play. Sessions are from ? to 12 and from 1 to 5 each week day except Saturday when work will cease at noon. Those tak ing the three weeks' course wili be expected to prepare their assign ments each evening. Their will be recitations, lectures and laboratory work, all for a registration fee ' I of ?lt.
