RDLAND PERDUE
. . for unselfish service
By WALTER SCHRUNTEK
An appeal for student leadership
in correcting the abuses of library
privileges recently cited by an ex
ecutive meeting of the University
'
library staff was made Monday by
Student Body President Bob
Young. : - '
At a special meeting of dormi
tory, sorority and fraternity rep
resentatives. Youn Dointed out
that the four areas of misuse
theft, torn pages, use of fictitious
names, and obliteration and mark
ing of library property constitute
Honor and Campus Code violations
He added that since the library
gives public service, these misde
meanors are also civil offenses
punishable through court action.
Library officials have stated that
unless the situation improves,
drastic measures must be taken.
Employment of a turnstile check
out and presentation of ID cards at
the desk have been discussed as
alternatives.
CURTAILMENT
"Unless corrections are made,
curtailment of library freedom
and privilege may result," Young
said.
So acute has the situation be
come that the Honor Council has
been called to investigate into sev
eral cases of serious violations.
One student, recently brought be
fore the council on charges of vio
lating library privilege, received 1
a probationary sentence. This sen-!
tence will not necessarily be stand-;
ara lor future offenders, however, '
m t I
xoung said.
SERIOUSNESS
"The seriousness of this situa
tion cannot be stressed enough

A campuswide ' 'Bermuda Pic

p.m. at the Davie Poplar. - '
The University Band will play
and the George Hamilton Trio will
sing and play some of their orig

iar favorites.
Dr. Bernard Boyd, professor of
religion, will be on hand to speak.
It is a campuswide affair, and in

Roland Perdue and Miss Eleanor
Riggins, who planned the event.
It is being sponsored by the YMCA
and YWCA.
The food, planned by Miss Jane
Warwick," will be free. Sororities
will close their dining halls that
night, so it looks is if there will
be a big crowd, Perdue said.
Students planning to attend the
picnic have been asked to pick
up a ticket for the supper in Y
Court before noon tomorrow.
"It is being called a "Bermuda
Picnic" in hopes that lots of stu
dents will be brave enough to
wear their Bermuda shorts," Per
due said.
