Books Damaged
In London Raids
Put On Display
Books damaged in London
laids are included in the exhibit
of the "Fifty British books of
1941 organized by the American
Institute of Graphic Arts" now on
display in the Main Library. The
Exhibit will be closed October 10,
Willard P. Lewis, College 'Li
brarian, said.
Odor of smoke remains in many
of the volumes, and bomb splint
ers can be seen embedded in a
few. Also on exhibit are several
shell and bomb fragments, part of
a German bomber shot down over
England, photographs of the
bombing of London, and striking
British war posters for wall deco
ration.
Among several hooks of value
it the collection is a facsimile of
the manuscript "Day by Day"
which was written in 1777 to
cover the movements of Ameri
can ships durintl, the Revolu
tionary War.
.The effect of the war on the
production of book s is noticeable
in the bindings and the inferior
grade of paper used in books on
display. By stressing* typography
and design, British designers,
publishers, and printers have
overcome these difficulties.
There is no curfew for the li
brary, Mr. Lewis stated. Stu
dents may feel . free - to come in
and study until 10 p. m. as before,
he emphasized.

October 11, it's about time some
Serious thinking was done on the
subject of rushing—a little under
the surface.
As sorority women progress in
the mad rush, freshmen and trans
fers .become more and more be
wildered. One group has a nice
house, perhaps new furniture; all
the kids in another house are
"smooth" dressers and quite in the
social limelight; another group is
especially active- in campus activi
ties; and several other groups just
seem to be good all-round coeds.
Perhaps you've got your choice
narrowed down to five houses.
You'd like to pledge all five of
them. Two weeks remain in
which you can carefully judge the
merits of each house and decide
with. which group you would like
to be associated for the mat of
your college career.
Don't be . swayed by any "lead
piping." Sororities guilty of this
act, in actuality, are lowering
your standard of mentality. You
have the ability to make your own
decisions.
Opportunity for frosh and trans
fers to become better acquainted
with Greeks will be provided by
"free association" periods from 4:30
to 5:30 p. m. next Monday, Tues
day, and Thursday, and an open
house from 4 to, 5:30 p. m. Wed
nesday, according to Pauline E.
Keller '43, Panhellenic Council
president.
Miss Keller urges Greeks to
keep these free association per
iods very informal.
