SECLUSION FROM the hustle of pre-Christmas shopping for those coeds who desire comfort and quiet for study is offered by the League Library during the re- mainder of the week. Informality is the keynote to the mode of conduct which is carried out in the library. Shoe- less feet propped up on the couches and bluejean clad coeds may be found taking advantage of the provided facilities. Tables and shelves dispersed throughout the room contain a wide variety of the latest popular magazines. Reference works, biographies and fiction books are included in the League collection which num- bers over 3,500 volumes. ** * * ONE OF the largest drama col- lections on campus is to be found on the League shelves. This col- lection is being compiled as a liv- ing memorial to Alice Crocker Lloyd, former Dean of Women. A circulation period of three days is enforced for drama, poe- try and periodicals. Fiction and non-fiction books may be taken out for a two week period. The library is open from 1 to 5:30 p.m. and from 7 to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Galens Begin Tag Day Drive Tomorrow Bucket brigades of a non-in- cendiary nature will be spread over campus and the downtown area tomorrow and Saturday for the 25th annual Galens Christmas Drive. Weather or not, the 24 mem- bers of the medical service and honorary society will be swinging their pails for the once-a-year Tag Day contributions. * * * BEGUN IN 1927 the money col- lected is used to comfort the chil- dren confined to University Hos- pital in such ways as the Christ- mas Party, the library of children's books, and phonograph records for bedridden children. Operated all year, the Galen Shop has proved the bright spot in many of the hospitalized chil- dren's day. Here, they have a chance to work with wood, lea- ther, weaving looms and other handicraft tools. In addition to keeping them busy, the shop also teaches them how to make useful and attrac- tive things, and that there are many things they can do even though they are not at home. This year's goal for the Ckrist- mas Drive has been set at $5,000, $1,000 above the goal set last year, according to Wally Kirsten, Ga- len's publicity manager. "If we can raise the amount," he said, "we'll be able to supply that many more toys, that much more cheer for the kids who don't have the comforts of home, of the family Christmas tree."
