s Library Collection Of maps Shows Slow Progress Of World Knowledge Early maps, representing the work o'f the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries, have been placed on exhibit in the low- er corridor of the Library. While the exhibit makes no pretense of com- pleteness, it does present interesting specimens of Mappemondes and Am- erican maps. The maps show, to the careful observer, how slowly inform- ation concerning the size, shape and position of the American continent was obtained. A facsimile of the earliest American map known, that by Juan de la Cosa, a pilot on the first voyage with Col- umbus, is shown. The reproduction was made in Spain. Of local interest are several 18th century maps of the Great Lakes region. The three editions of the works of Rosaccio could probably not be found in any other American library. Philip Cluver. whose geography is shown, was one of the most famous geographers of the 17th century. The facsimiles of early maps are worthy of particular attention as they give the form in which most serious students of carto- graphy use the material. Among the 16th century maps on dis- play those by Mercator, Hondius, Or- telius, de Jode, Munster, Porcacchi and de Bry are particularly worthy of at- tention. Indocus Hondius began his work as an editor of the maps of Ger- ard Mercator, and prepared the maps for works by Walter Raleigh, and the voyages of Drake and Cavendish. Aft- er his death his, son Henri de Jeune became a well known geographer. The great world map of Gerard Mor- cator, of 1569, is represented by a fac- simile of one portion representing Florida and Cuba. Mercator won fame by his new system of map pro- jection which is still used today. Another display of interest is the volume called Mercurio Geographico, containing the 1674 world map by San- son. Maps by his sons and other works the famous Italian house of Ricci are also contained in the volume. The Frand Atlas Universel, by Robert de Vaugondy, the famous royal geograph- er, is likewise displayed. The geography book by Nicolas de Fer, in which both text and maps are printed from copper plates, is shown. Maps by Homann and the Homann heirs, published in Germany about the same time are included in the 18th century collection. Another interesting map is the Or- telius atlas, a product of the famous Plantin press at Antwerp. Gerard de Jode's atlas of 1578, is on display. This, with the Mercator and Ortelius, came to the University from one of its grad- uates; W. C. >1urphy, who acted as American consul at Frankfort.

SOPHOMORE GIRLS START PLANS FOR NEXT YEAR'S PLAY Sophomore girls made plans for the next year's Junior Girls' play at a meeting held Wednesday. A commit- tee consisting of Catherine Stafford, Helen Dehbridge, Sadybeth Heath, Dor- is Crouse, Susan Fitch and Frieda Die- koff, was elected to promote enthusi- asm among the girls and to get some initial plans under way. Student Upholds Foreign Customus In her talk on "India" at the ves- per services Wednesday afternoon, Asha Latika Haldar, grad., furnished several surprises for her audience. In- stead of seeming to apologize for the customs of her people, which perhaps to some of the customs of our coun- try. She criticized what to her is our formalism, shown in our tendency to judge people and nations by their ex terior qualities rather than their stan- dards and idea;;.
