Captured German books printed by the Nazi government for distribution among the German troops for propaganda purposes, were received recently by Fred Ellsworth, alumni secretary, from Lieut. Kalman Oranetz, '40.
Lieutenant Oranetz, who has been stationed with the headquarters of the European civil affairs division for more than a year, submitted the 34 books for distribution to the German department or to any others interested in Nazi trends of thought during war years when America was cut off from close study of the German people.
The possibility that these books might be added to the war memento collection of historical and social significant items was suggested by Mr. Ellsworth.
