Seigler Speaks
To Jr.-Sr. "Y"
At Luncheon
"What a man believes in, Is what
he Is," Mr. Wilbur Siegler of the
University of South Carolina Eng
lish department said at the Jr.-Sr.
"Y" luncheon in Flinn Iall. Friday,
April 5. Mr. Seigler talked about
the "Aspects of Current American
Thought."
"The attitude of defeatism is
too dominant in Americans," he
said. The best way to foretell the
future, is to examine the past, he
commented.
Mr. Seigler talked briefly on
three topics: attitudes toward
poltical associations, materialIsm,
and skepticism. Ile said that Ameri
cans are too devoted to material
things and should try to get away
from this. Individuals are too skep
lical about their faith, causing a
lack of this in almost everything
they are associated witih.
Joe Ilaninock presided; the
speaker was inlroduced by Chick
Si.lton, and devotions were led by
Hugh Carrier. Recently elected
YWCA officers were presented by
Ethel Lazar, out-going president.
Trhe new officers are Jean Turner,
president; Dot Phasey, vice presi
dent: Bert Hemingway, secretary.
nnd Ludy Martin, t-reasurer.

To Buy Books
Dr. John Van Male, librarian of

of South Carolina, has been ap
Pointed as state chairman of the
American Book Center, which is a
corporation set u) by a number of
associations in the state to gathel
books for devastated libraries of
Europe and Asia.
This association will ask publish
ers to give them as many books as
they will and then they will solicit
individuals in libraries all over the
country for scholarly journals and
worthwhile hooks of the last ten
years.
Dr. Van Male will organize com
mittees in this state to do this job.
Miss Cornelia Graham, librarian at
Clemson College, and Miss Annabel
Furman. librarian at the Medical
College, Charleston, S. C., wl.J help
him.
This is a worthwhile project be
cause it gives S. C. a chance to
help these (tevastate( libraries
(Iuickly with important information
about diet, sanitation, etc., to build
up Iheir countries. For instance,
701t of the Polish libraries are
gone. The Germans dest royed
them. Many of these books can i
never be replaced. in this manner,
these libraries can start anew," said
Dr. Van Male.
A n. it gives America the great
est opportunity it has ever had to
inform Europe. Asia. and the Phil
ippines of its ideas. standards, and
way of doing things for years to
