WHY 9 O'CLOCK?
Monday's announcement of a 9 o'clock closing hour for the library came as a considerable surprise to most students, although those who were here in summer school have already had a chance to form their opinions. Naturally, under the supervision of the library, had to cut expenses, but that meant the shortening of hours is the most feasible method, was the hour lopped off in the evening the most propitious time?
There are more students studying in the library between 9 and 10 in the evening than between 5:30 and 7 o'clock. Why not close the library for this hour and a half if shorter hours are essential, than at a time when many more students are making use of its facilities. True, there are students in the library during the dinner hour, but it is a more handful compared to the number later in the evening.
Under the present arrangement it will be approximately 7:15 or 7:30 before most students can get to the library, obtain a book and get settled. They can study until 8:45, giving them an hour and a half for their evening library work. True, the privilege of checking out books over a night is a help, but it fails to recompense for the extra hour.
The library can render better service to the students if it will keep the later closing hour and cut down on its hours at some other time, preferably during the dinner period.
FOOTBALL ON THE AIR
Big Six athletic officials decided Saturday that no game, conference or non-conference, played on the gridiron of any member school shall be broadcast this season. The object, of course, is to increase the attendance at the games, the argument being that too many fans are listening to the contests on the radio instead of paying out their
Broadcasting of football games has in the past created an immeasurable amount of good will among alumni and friends of the school who lived at a distance and could not possibly attend the games. It is important for the teams and the schools Those are some advantages.
But here is an angle which few people even consider. The broadcasting company receives a goodly sum from a business concern for putting the game on the air, with the customary product advertising between touchdowns. On most radio programs, the entertainers often put up ads but Buto talent on a football broadcast, the competing teams, get anything for performing for the invisible audience? Not a cent.
A fair and legitimate means of keeping the good will of distant listeners and at the same time reimbursing the athletic associations for last patronage would be to require half the amount which has been going to the broadcasting company to be divided between the performing teams. Why not try it sometime?
This year a new plan for the student activity fee is being put into operation at the University. Whether or not the plan will be successful is yet to be seen. Nevertheless, since every student is required to buy an activity ticket, it will be to his advantage to attend the entertainments which the ticket includes.
MAKE USE OF YOUR TICKETS
The new student ticket provides admission to all athletic events except basketball; the concert series, the lecture course, the dramatic productions, intercollegiate debates, glee club concerts, and in the Memorial Union and the student governing association.
Why not attend these varied activities and see if you enjoy them? Go to those entertainments which
