Music symposium ends today
Tacy Weidman, Lawrence junior, and Jay Finlayson, Omaha, Neb., junior, play the premiere performance of Antonio M. Molina's "The Ox and the Nightingale."
The three-part suite was part of a recital of student compositions presented yesterday in connection with the 11th annual Symposium of Contemporary American Music sponsored by the School of Fine Arts.
The Symposium continues today with an address by composer Vincent Persichetti on "Materials of the American Composer" at 2:30 p.m. in Swarthout Recital Hall. At 7 p.m. University carilloneur Albert Gerken will play a carillon recital. An orchestra concert at 8 p.m. will complete the symposium. Persichetti will conduct his Seventh Symphony to end the concert.
Library accepts late books free
A library clemency period this week will allow students to return overdue books to Watson Library with no charge, said David Morgan, student library committee chairman.
The arrangement, made with David Heron, library director, begins at midnight tomorrow and ends at midnight Friday. Overdue books can be returned to the return box at the circulation desk, or the outdoor return box.
"The purpose of the clemency period," Morgan said, "is to get books back into circulation that have been missing a long time."
He estimated the number of overdue books to exceed 1,000 volumes.

Business students in the center groaned when the decision was made to close. A spokesman for the center assured the students, however, that notes would be sent to their professors to excuse incomplete assignments.
Computation Center closed by Moomau
Fifty seminarians yesterday seized the Andover-Newton Administration Building to protest refusal of the board of trustees to consider demands of black students.
The Computation Center of Summerfield Hall was closed last night at 10:45 because of rumors that a confrontation with student radicals was to be expected.
E. P. Moomau, chief of traffic and security, refused to make a comment about the clearing of the center and personally escorted a UDK reporter out of the hall about five minutes after he suggested the hall be closed to everyone except campus police and computation center employees.
Fifty Union Theological Seminary students occupied that school's Administration Building in support of black leader James Forman's demand for $500 million reparations for wrongs done Negroes.
Secular protesters continued activities at St. Peter's College in New Jersey, Stanford University in California, and the University of Rhode Island.
A court order yesterday brought a peaceful end to a sit-in at Missouri's Lincoln University, but nearly 100 of the students slept outside the Jefferson City school's Student Union Building in support of the 35 demands made by the original protesters.
William Balfour, dean of student affairs, said the campus police were acting only as a protective measure. He added he knew for some time about the confrontation rumor at the computation center but didn't know anything presently about the actions of Moomau.
At Andover-Newton Theological Seminary at Newton, Mass., students held the Administration Building. At Union Theological Seminary in New York City, seminarians remained in control of a chapel.
About half the 2,000 day students at St. Peter's in Jersey City boycotted classes yesterday demanding reinstatement of a professor and greater voice in school policy.
By United Press International Sit-ins by seminarians and a sleepout by students today marked a series of university protests across the nation.
The U.S. Weather Bureau predicts partly cloudy skies today with southerly winds 10 to 20 mph. Scattered rain and thundershowers late this afternoon and evening and continuing into the early morning. Otherwise partly cloudy and little temperature change. Highs today in the upper 70s, lows tonight near 60. Precipitation chances 30 per cent today, 60 per cent tonight, 30 per cent tomorrow.
Stanford students stayed away from classes and played "political games" in a protest organized by the militant April 3rd Movement. The group is protesting war-related research at the Stanford Research Institute.

Hey, Mac, now that's a helluva thing to say!
DETROIT (UPI) — Detroiters do give a damn—and a hell of a lot more.
They also give out with less printable expressions at work and at leisure, a Wayne State University psychologist found in a survey taken through strategically placed tape recorders.
Among Dr. Paul Cameron's printable findings was that two of the 30 most frequently used words are unprintable and that
Engagements
Karla Kolins, Hobbs, N.M., junior majoring in physical therapy, Alpha Delta Pi, to Michael Martin, Wichita law student, Theta Chi.
Diana Blew, Hutchinson sophomore majoring in elementary education, to Jack Kranz, Haven junior majoring in industrial arts at Kansas State Teachers College, Emporia.
Marion Hitchens, Webster Groves, Mo., senior majoring in chemistry, to Gary Trammel, Chanute senior majoring in chemistry.
Durinda Johnson, Moline, III., sophomore majoring in social studies education, to Mike Ashley, Chanute senior majoring in psychology, Sigma Nu.
"damn" is the fifth most frequently used word in the language during leisure time. Surveyed were 40,000 candid words used at 80 different types of jobs and at play.
The study indicated adult Detroiters were less foul-mouthed on the jobs than at play, with a 3.5 profanity percentage, compared with 10 per cent at leisure. The seventh and eighth most frequently used words at leisure have made it as far as Broadway and university campuses but are still generally unprintable.
Also, Cameron found women have reached equality in cussing.
Other findings included:
- Secretaries curse less than 1 per cent of the time, salesclerks 2 per cent, factory workers 20 per centt and pool players 30 per cent.
The 100 words most frequently used in the English language include damn, God, hell and Jesus used in a profane way.
People use profanity, Cameron said,"because in a way it is a protest." He plans to continue an offshoot of the two-year study to determine why children swear.
