IRST SINCE WAR :
'U' Filipino Students Stress
Necessity for Hayden Library

The proposed Hayden Memorial
Library at the University of the
Philippines will be the first real
library Filipino students have had
since the war, according to Dr.
Main Library
clxets German
Science Books,
Scientific journals from Ger-
many which the General Library's
agent in that country has been
accumulating during the war years
are beginning to arrive in large
quantities, according to W. G.
Rice, director.
The war made it impossible for
the Library to obtain these
volumes in their original form,
though some substitutes were
available in microfilmed or litho-
graphed copies reproduced from
the few issues reaching this coun-
try from Germany.
The firm which has served as
the University's agent operated
in Leipsig prior to the war. Allied
bombing missions, however, forced
the removal of its stocks to safer
country in eastern Germany. Wirh
the peace settlement and subse-
quent division of Germany among
the Four Powers, the agency f:und
itself deep in the Russian Zone.
This new development gave the
Library the added task of secur-
ing the books from Russia.
The problem was taken care of
by the Library of Congress which
made settlement with the Rus-
sians through the U. S. Army. The
first consignment reached the Un-
iversity this winter and the Lib-
rary has just received notice that
a second will arrive soon.
Journals published up to 1942
and dealing with recent scientific
and technological research con-
ducted in Germany will provide
the bulk of the latest shipment
These works will be especially
valuable to students in the pure
sciences, in medicine, and in engi-
neering fields at the University

Augusto A. Camara, Filipino grad-
uate student here.
Dr. Camara, who heads the Fili-
pino student group on campus.
came to Ann Arbor a year ago. At
that time the University of the
Philippines had just opened and
was carrying on under extremely
adverse conditions, he said.
Books Destroyed,
Millions of books were destroyed
during the Japanese occupation
when troops billeted in University
buildings used them for making
fires, Dr. Camara said, adding
that the few books which were re-
moved to Manila were later de-
E stroyed by Allied artillery in the
I battle for the liberation of the
city.
The proposed library, to be par-
tially financed by University of
Michigan students, will therefore
render untold aid to Filipino stu-
dents," Dr. Camara said.
Lucila Martelino, Filipino stu-
dent who came to Ann Arbor 18
months ago, also emphasized the
Iplight of students on the islands
F because of the book shortage.
"Letters from my friends at home
say that they are trying to make
the best of limited facilities," she
explained.
'"Books are badly needed and the
proposed Hayden Library will go
a long way toward filling that
need," Miss Martelino said.
Campus Drive
The campus drive for the Hay-
den Memorial Library will get
underway on April 14. Included
in the drive will be a student tal-
ent show at Hill Auditorium, a
dance at Waterman gym and a
pledge subscription campaign.
According to Russ Mullen, who
heads the subscription division of
the drive, all campus residences
and organizations will be con-
tacted by speakers who will ex-
plain details of the drive. Tables
will be set up on campus so that
students can make contributions.
World Student Service Fund
members on campus are working
- in conjunction with the student
committee on the drive. WSSF
members will aid in the subscrip-
tion drive to be carried on during
the campaign.
Mrs. Thompson, Camp
Davis Caretaker, Dies
Mrs. Grant Thompson, wife of
the caretaker of Camp Davis, the
University's geology and survey-
ing camp at Jackson, Wyo., died
last Friday.
The Thompsons have looked
after the camp since 1931, acting
as cooks in the summer, when
students occupy the camp.

HOSPITAL STORY HOUR - Four young patients in the University Hospital listen as a teacher
reads to them in the Kiwanis Playroom, part of the Hospital School which offers an educational and
recreational program for children of all ages.

Prof. Brumm
Backs Press
Cor mmissio
Prof. John L. Brunmn of the
journalism department agrees "on
the whole" with the conclusions
of the special commission of edu-
cators investigating the American
press made public yesterday in
Chicago.
Referring to the commission's'
censure of m o s t journalism
schools for failing to give their
students "broad and liberal train-
ing" and serving only as "inef-
fective vocational" schools, Pro-
fessor Brumm asserted that it is
highly gratifying to him that the
ideal which has always been the
concern of the department should
be so substantiated by nationally
known educators.
The thirteen-member commis-
sion, suggested and largely under-
written by Time, Inc., and head-
ed by Robert M. Hutchins, chan-
cellor of the University of Chica-
go, concluded that freedom of the
press is in danger because of its
bigness, inadequate service to so-
ciety, and malpractice of the men
in charge.
The Great Lakes evaporate
faster during fall and winter
months than during other seasons.
