Damaged Books . . .
Nebraska University's Don L. Love Memorial library
is one of America's most modern college libraries. The
building was erected with a gift of $850,000 from the estate
of Don L. Love, for many years a prominent Lincoln lawyer
and banker, and twice mayor of the city.
It was completed in 1943, and, after its reconversion
from wartime use as an ASTP barracks, $250,000 was spent
in furnishing and equipping the building. It has space for
more than 800,000 books and documents. Many large read
ing rooms provide space for more than 1,000 students under
modern lighting conditions at spacious study tables.
Tt crnps u-ithnnt sflvinrr that our library is certainly one
of which we may be proud. But it takes mtre than just prick
to keep the library, and its books, in good condition. Library
officials report that a small minority of the students have
been damaging books to the extent of tearing pages out of
them.
The books in the library are purchased with tax money.
So when students destroy them, they are only taking money
from the pockets of their parents, friends and relatives. Of
course, this is exaggerating the point a bit, but it's hardly
fair to the people of Nebraska just to throw their money
out the window. And it's not being considerate of the stu
dents to damage books or parts of books. Nothing can be
more disgusting than to spend 30 minutes reading a refer
ence book and then discover that the next five pages have
been torn out.
But enough of the preaching. If the small number of
students who are responsible for damaging books will stop
and consider the situation, it can be cleared up with very
little trouble. FRITZ SIMPSON

Becoming more elaborate every
year, Mortar Board ball corsages
leached outlandish heights this
season making dancing and even
w alking a task. Abused Arv Rey
nolds had a snow laden shoulder
complete vith skiers, tobaggons
and the rest produced by Marilyn
Bramer evidently denoting that
Arv is the out-door type.
Danny Jones wore his little gem
in his hair. Cunning new steady
Sh'rley Hahn fashioned a coon
skin cap phis a pop gun and the
inscription "I trapped you, Dan'l."
Paving the way for Benny Rob
inson's future experiments was
Audry Rosenbaum. Her master
piece consisted of two mangy
guinia pigs name of "Buttons and
Bows" (caged) and a carrot or
two.
As for Saturday night, four
social functions managed to instill
the Christmas spirit.
Chi Omega girls held their an
nual Christmas formal at their
house Saturday. Social chairman
Lou Scharman imited Bob Wei
mar, Ellen Mahood asked Mike
Swanda, and Jean Rummel dated
Bub Freed. Hidden among the
angel's hair was Russ Kruger and
combo.
The Ag Men's Social club
danced to Gay Fiestner's music
at a semi-loimal holiday ball at
the Activities building Saturday
night. Dancing beneath blue and
white streamers were Liia iviucRe
Mnd Duke Albert. Connie Fouts
and Jack Wright, Dottie Bowman
and Keith Arterburn.
The Wilson hall Christmas party
had a charity theme. Admission
was a toy to be given to a local
orphanage. Attending the event
after the game were Jean Shor
man and Tom Andreas, Norma
Keuten and Tom Clark.
The AGR's went Western at
their house party. Donning boots
and chaps and seated among the
hay were Annette Stopkotte and
James Doyle. Tat Black and Bob
Sims.

Paul Harrington, arts and sci
ences senior from Wayne, takes
the sympathizing role of Esdras,
"a kindly old rabbi whose chil
dren are caught in a rehash of a
visious crime." Commented Har
rington, "Esdras makes a very
serious attempt to help his chil
dren. It is a role of a philosopher,
quite unusual lor the theatre.
Most other dramatic parts typify
phases of philosophy. It is un
usual to see a definite philosoph
er in a play. In the end. Esdras
sees great beauty in what other
wise would be a sordid scene."
The fourth major character is
that of Garth, enacted by Dewey
Gancll. arts and sciences senior
from McCook.
