A Wiser Choice ... Now that all-university church night has come and gone, it is hoped that free comment can b5 injected for future consideration without arousing the wrath of those responsible individuals who so unwisely set aside a closed activity night for the expressed purpose of allowing stu dent religious organizations an option on the student's life. From the psychological angle this writer feels that the religious groups on the campus have a distorted conception of the average student. Religion, like all other worldly things in this atomic civilization cannot and should not be literally shoved down the layman's throat, so it is suggested that attempts at same be terminated. Religion is a part of successful living and should be presented as such. When a special night is set aside for religious observance, religion itself suffers, as it too, is set aside and cataloged as a foreign element in campus "life , that cannot fuse with other activities. This we know is not 3 the express purpose of the all-university function, but nevertheless it is the impression that has been stamped on , many student minds. i; Making religion an integral part of learning and ulti v m&tely an integral part of life is the answer to success. Consequently don't unwisely make religion an abstract Tfluantity. -When there's a rally, allow religion to find it's place in it; when there's convocation or learning to be done, jjet religion become a brother in the effort. Let religion be l tome a part of campus life, don't force it. It's place is there j tad with proper usage it will take it's seat for the better i itvent and benefit of all of us. It Says Here r BY PAT NORDIN. Romance still runs rampant on the UN campus. . .guess all the guys and gals have one track minds, and we don't care... It's giving us something to write about. Determined is the word for SAE Ben Creed who spotted a G a mini Phi pledge in the library and from his description of her was directed to four of them before contacting the girl and promoting a date. Diamonds are common at the Sigma Kappa house this season. At the head of the list of new engagements is that of Jean Bartizal and Chick Knowlcs, Pat O'Hara and Jim Winkler, and Nancy Moore and Beta Sig Matt Mattson. The AOPI's have replaced their last year's mascot, a goat, with a Phi Psi, Jack H'ells. Jack was elected after he became a perma nent fixture on the AOPi porch. Bashful Boy. The Delts seem to have a bash ful boy in Jim Sharp. Gamma Thi Luana Nelson wears both his ring and pin, but still Jim shrinks from candy passing. Clair Williams, Kappa Sig w ho spent a lonely semester at I'N last year is now making up for lost time since steady Fran Smith K.I)., has transfer red from Denver U. Further more, Fran is busy acquainting her roommate with the Kappa Sig's too, hence the twosome of Mary O'Connor and Hank Ayers. Milton Mack of the Phi Kappa Psi house was some what perturbed Friday night when friend Margie Sturm, AOPi, failed to arrive in Lin coin for their date. Margie made it, 12 hours later, with an iron-clad alibi. The Ne hawka football team surprised everyone by beating its oppo nent and Margie had to remain in the old home town and cover the story for the Ne hawka Enterprise. Phi Gam John Cover was the constant companion of his home town girl this week-end. Name Kay Cover, who journeyed from Alliance with friends Jean Per rin, Joan Connell, and Harriet Edwards to play in the band for the Alliance-Northeast game. Al though their team lost, the gills had a big week-end seeing the campus and enjoying sorority life. Harriett Wilbourne, Delta Gamma, and Phi Psi Bill Eythe may be picking up where they left off last year. Ask either of them after Saturday night. A song has been dedicated to Kappa Delta by Phi Gam Jack Boyant. It's called, "No one but Rembrandt could paint your beauty, so why did you give me the brush?" It takes so little to disturb the peace these days. People can't even take showers without both ering the neighbors, and Gamma Phi's Barbara Roland, Torchy Re differ, Jimmy James and Carol Erdman found out the hard w.y. It wasn't even their idea.

Love Library To Sponsor Open House Open house will be held at Don L. Love memorial library Oct. 4 and 5, it was announced Satur day by Frank A. Lundy, director of university libraries. "As part of the open house," Mr. Lundy said, "dedicatory ex ercises will be held at 3 p. m. Sunday, Oct. 5, in the library." Librarians, alumni and Interested citizens as well as the students are invited to the brief program to be held in the library study hall. Chancellor Gustavson will be the principal speaker. Quarter Million Spent The building has been in use as a library since 1945 when It was reconverted from wartime use as an ASTP barracks. The univer sity has spent $250,000 furnish ing and equipping the building since its return from army use. Only a few minor areas remain to be decorated and equipped. Completed in 1943 when the army moved in, the library was erected with the gift of $850,000 from the estate of Don L. Love, for many years a prominent Lin coln lawyer, banker, and twice mayor of the city. Love library marks a bold ad vance in library operations. Near ly a dozen of the 50 major educa tional institutions planning new libraries have visited Love library to learn more of the Nebraska plan. Books are placed according to a "divisional plan." Lundy ex plained, in four large reading rooms, humanities, science, social studies and education. This is done to break down the barriers between students and books. Sur rounded by books in the field of his particular interest, the student has only to pick one and start reading. Out-Moded Methods Changed A pneumatic tube and special conveyor will be in service to speed the books from the stacks to the student. Every step in the library's operation breaks with the traditional library where books were stored away museum fashion. Love library has space for over 800,000 books and documents, plenty for all the books which it was once necessary to scatter at 23 separate points about the cam pus. Six reading rooms provide space for over 1000 students un der modern lighting conditions at spacious study tables. Undergraduate library facilities have been used nearly to capacity by the students throughout the past year, according to David O. Kelley, assistant director in pub- 4 LOVE MEMORIAL LIBRARY. , . .

Stoke, former dean of the graduate school of the university and more recently president of the University of New Hampshire, assumed the presi dency of Louisiana State univer sity last week.
