THE MICHIGAN DAILY WEDNESDA* Automation Transforms 'U' Libraries Chicago Groups To View A lleged Discrimination WORSHIP Each Thursday, 12:10-12:40 P.M. By HELENE SCHIFF A discussion between the Uni- versity of Chicago administration and community and campus or- ganizations will be held next week to discuss alleged university dis- criminatory practices in apart- ment renting. Participants include members of the university administration and faculty, two members of the Con- gress of Racial Equality, two members of student Government, representatives of the Hyde Park Council of Churches and Syna- gogues, the Urban League, the Hyde 'Park-Kenwood Community Conference and Alderman Leon Despres. Discussions were proposed after incidents took place regarding stu- dent concern on the university's real estate policy. Members of CORE and student government presented the results of six notarized test cases on apartment discrimination to the administration on January 16. In each case, Negro and white students applied for apartments in university owned buildings. The Negro students were allegedly re- fused apartments that white ap- plicants were subsequently offer- ed. An official statement of policy was made by George W.

"Whenever the university acquires a building because it is threatened with de- terioration, (the primary reason for such acquisition), it does not make abrupt changes of practice with regard to occupancy, because maintenance of a socially practi- cable rate of integration is essen- tial to the prevention of further deterioiation," the statement said. Sit-ins were held outside of Beadle's office on. January 23 by CORE members. They decided to protest publicly until the admin- istration agreed to implement a program of non-discrimination. The sit-ins ended February 3 aft- er the administration threatened suspension for the students in- volved.

JAZZ SALE All Jazz LP's 30 to 40% -off AUTOMATION - In the future electronic equipment may revolutionize the inside of the Univer- sity's libraries. Appearing the same on the outside, the General Library may someday house auto- matic indexing devices and store microfilm reductions of books instead of the books themselves. Students may read books on television screens and charge them with IBM cards. reg-$3 .98 now $2.76 Besides, by the time the library invests in the films and the view- er the equipment takes up as much space as the actual storage of the original material. Prof. Wagman asserted that often times the equipment and reduction filming devices may cost as much as buying a new building to increase storage space. However, use of microfilm is helpful in storing information for little used or decaying books. A new process of high reduction photography still in the laboratory stage can store 10,000 pages on less than a square foot ofr film. This is one of the more promising new processes, Prof. Wagman' said. Electronic Sorters Such equipment as electronic card sorters and machine indexing may some day be as efficient as the hand card catalogue, but for the present speed and accuracy, at ,reasonable cost, can best be achieved manually. Computers may assist in stor- fig of texts, abstracts and bibio g- raphies but the expense in codify- ing words into computer code is extreme. Although computers can speedily locate material from lim- ited "supplies, often a computer takes hours to wade through vast supplies of material found in min- utes manually, Prof. Wagman said. Automatic translators and Indexes may be useful in libraries of the future. Another drawback is the use of expensive machines is that if the equipment is not in constant use money is being lost. Also the speed in which equipment becomes ob- solescent is another problem li- braries face, according to inves- tigators. But library problems cannot be solved entirely even by the devel- opment of new, efficient ma- chines. There is a great need for trained library scientists, Prof. Rudolph H. GJelness, chairman of the library science department, said. , Recently criticism has arisen because American universities do not offer advanced degrees in doc- umentation, but Prof. GJelness contends that the present doctor- ate program in library science ac- complishes this purpose. Any stu- dent in library science can spe- cialize in 'documentationaduring the course of his work towards his. Ph.D. NSA To Start Exchange Plan A student exchange program with Tougaloo Southern Christian College, Jackson, Miss., is being started ba the United States Na- tional Student Association, Ken- neth Miller, 1'64; chairman of Student Government Council Stu- dent Concerns Committee, said yesterday. Founded in 1869, Tougaloo was the first privately endowed col- lege in Mississippi for Negro stu- dents, Miller said. Students accepted for the pro- gram will spend one week at Tougaloo between March 5 and May 20. Miller said that the purpose of the exchange is to give students a better understanding of the South and the problems of Negro education. The program should also. give Tougaloo's: students a chance to meet people with -dif- ferent educational and cultural backgrounds.
