If your reading tastes go along these lines, or to more popular ones, such as Atlantic Monthly or Life, you can find plently to educate and entertain you in this section of the Library. This light, airy room, located in the new east wring on the second floor of the Library, is more and more becoming of interest to stu dents, faculty and townspeople. Whether it's a homesick freshman who sort of sneaks in to read his home town paper, a political science professor who is a regular, customer, or a would-be writer -who hasn't the price of the New Yorker, this department can answ er the need. It can, that is, if the need is for recent publications. POST, UNDER 'S' On the open shelves which cover three walls of the room are over 1,000 magazines and newspapers. They are listed alphabetically, ac cording to the official name of the publication. For instance, 'many students give up in disgust when they do not find Post under "P."

WHAT? NO DAILY WORKER The question that invariably arises is "Does the Current Affairs Reading Room have The Daily Worker?" The answer is no, and there's a good reason to answer the stormy "Why not?" ., Mrs. Helen B. Hogan, Current Affairs librarian,; says, "There are a lot of things we would, like to take for which we just do not have the money, and The Daily Worker is one of them." The next argument is why buy some of the publications on the, shelves and not the Worker? Mrs. Hogan explains "selection is made according to demands as based on needs for classroom work." NOT PREJUDICED As for prejudiced against the Communist paper, there is none, as such. If you look closely on the shelves which invite students to help themselves, you will see some other "subversive" literature.

Douglas of the United States Supreme Court will give a public talk Tuesday night at 8 o'clock in Memorial Hall. His appearance is being co sponsored by the Carolina Forum and the Law School Association. Justice Douglas took his seat on the Supreme Court in 1939, after being nominated by the late Pres ident Franklin D. Roosevelt. He was born in Maine, Minne sota, in 1898. His father was a home missionary of the Presby terian Church. Justice Douglas re ceived his AB degree from Whit- man College in Walla Walla, LEGISLATIVE ROUNDUP: UP's On By NEIL BASS ' The University Party will run the show in the student Legisla ture during the next assembly, but not by the 29-21 majority pre viously announced. That eight vote, edge has been dulled by the announcement that one of the incoming legislators chalked up as a UP member is ac tually a member of the Student Party. The legislator who formed the pivot for the swing back to a 28 22 count was Jackie Wilkins. Thus the tabulation is, the same as last year,- but the sho.es is now on a different foot a size six UP ma jority one.

He was holding that position at the time of his ap pointment to the U. S. Supreme Court. Justice Douglas is the author of a number of books, the latesl being An Almanac of Liberty.

The idea is that the dormitories', fraternities and sororities' would furnish subscriptions, and the li brary would furnish binders desig nating the donors. ALL GIFTS For those indignant students whose North Carolina home town papers are not there, there is rea son enough why.' Mrs. Hogan ex plains, that every' North Carolina newspaper, with the exception of thre or four of the largest ones, is there by a gift subscription. "The purpose of the Current Af fairs Reading Room," the librarian notes, "is to keep the individual up to-date with what's going on in the world today, and we try to do it through magazines, newspapers and the clipping file." While the collection is not yet all that every student may desire, it is looking out for his interest and when the budget permits, perhaps there will be such limited-appeal papers as fhe Daily Worker, a periodical for chess players and maybee even one from Lower Slob-bovia. SMILE Wip off that smile, says tht ed itor if you want to get elected. The illustrated lecture is on p. 2. FOUR PAGES TODAY rf WGDlS Hillians tossed a bill in the House hopper which would eliminate the state "subsidy" for all students who en ter state-supported schools after this spring. The bill provides: "That any person not a bona fide resident of the state of North Carolina who enters any state-supported institution of higher learn ing after the regular 1954-55 term shall be charged by, and shall pay to, such institution an amount equivalent to the entire cost to such institution of providing to such student instructional service, cu.stodial care, and any and all other services furnished to such student by such institution, such , cost to be determined by the Ad visory Budget Commission with the assistance of the state auditor and the assistant director of the budget . . . provided, however, that the provisions of this section shall not be mandatory in the case of any student who may have enrolled in -or been accepted for enrollment in any such institution prior to the effective date of this act." According to information furn ished the Appropriations Commit tee, the additional cost to out-of-state students would be the fol lowing amounts annually: UNC $310, UNC Health Affairs $1,424, State College $400, and the Wo amn's College $332. A key word in the bill is "man datory," in connection with the ex emption of students now enrolled or accepted for enrollment. It in dicates they may still be charged the higher rates. Gray Repeats Fees Statement ! "I have said publicly and I re ; peat," said President Gordon Gray 1 yesterday, "that I hope it won't be ; necessary for the Legislature to raise any student fees." Gray made the statement con cerning the bill, proposed in the House of Representatives of the ; state Legislature yesterday, which , calls for raising out-of-state tui j tion at stale-supported schools to cost. Gray added he is "not in favor" of any increase in student tuition fees. Spains Receive New 'Sounds' Sounds, the column by Tom Spain which usually appears on the Saturday editorial page of The Daily Tar Heel, is not appearing today. The reason' for this is a baby boy who was born to Spain and his wife yesterday, and who will probably be filling the Spair household with quite a few sounds during the coming weeks. The baby, who has been named Frank, was born at 6 p.m. yester day in North Carolina Memori?! Hospital. Old Legislature Meets ?or l ast Time Tuesday The student Legislature will meet Tuesday night at 7:30 for a "15 or 20 minute session," ac cording to Speaker Martin Jordan. The meeting, said Jordan, was called only for the purpose of in troducing the new student gov ernment budget so that it could te voted on the week after the spring holidays. The old Legis lature, not the newly elected one, will attend the meeting.
