How long should the libraries of
USC stay open on the week days'
Should a library be kept open 24
hours a day seven days a week'
A large number of students hav4
complained that the libraries a
USC's are not open long enough fo
the work they must do. Kennet]
Toombes. Director of Librarie
said. ''We're prepared to keel
them open.'' but maintains th
buildings would get very little us
it they were kept open after I I p.m
on the week days or 5 p.m. o

Toombes said he has not seen

I have not had any complaints
this year on the library hours,"
T'oombes said and added that he
thinks there is no demand for
longer hours. An expansion of
hours during exam time was tried
t wo years ago but the lack of
t student response made a con
r tintuation of longer hours un
I warranted.
S On the other hand, I think that
P longer hours deserve another test.
e The number of persons who use the

Building is just one indication of
" the need for hour expansion in at
least one library. Studying and
a work does not end at 11 p.m. during
the week and many students use
the weekend for catching up. I
e doubt that a 5 p.m. closing time on
Y Saturday satisfies this need.

'Obnoxio
DEAR MR. BEEBE: go I
I am writing in regard to the I 11
attitude held by Mr. or Mrs. sch
"Name Withheld" toward "the adl
asinine, obnoxious northerners" on tho
this campus which was expressed
in a letter to you on Friday 26. Ilov
May I commend you, Name hee
Withheld, on your brilliant ob-' e
servation that the "bands of ser
northern students who yell "New in
York is number one' and 'Carolina con
sucks" are the students who
''bring about resentment by
',outhern students toward northern
st udents which results in fights and
harsh words."
How true. Name Withheld, how
true. and how gracious of you to
the attention or the innocent and
unsuspecting Southern students of
our university. I am certain that
the hearts or many of your loyal
Iriends will rest at ease now that
vou have courageously warned'
them oh the dangers which will
belall them should they associate
with these awful "damn yankeer".
You are truly a most noble and
loyal southern patriot, who we as
siuidents of this fine institution of
sout hern learning, should be proud
ot . Also, you are to be applauded
lor your openess and generosity in1
dlescending trom your illustrious
ivorv tower to acknowlege the
-'level-headed northerners" on (
v'our hall who also resent these
dlreadlful tyrants "from the land of
no sun. New York." I was not
aware that all northerners came
Irom New York. I was not aware
that most Yankees "true selves"
Iare those of "asses." I was not
eaware that the "players chose to
