A wide selction of various periodicals is also available for student use. In a partial list of these magazines one would find, The Officer, Army Aviation Digest, Army Reservist, Armor, and Army Times. Although the ROTC library may be frequently overlooked, its shelves contain a wealth of information that can be of value to ROTC students and non- cadets alike. So, the next time you're in the library, take a few minutes to browse through the ROTC stacks, it may prove to be time well spent. . •'■• , Open Stacks Save Books For Library By RICK BADGLEY According to Head Librarian Charlotte Smith and Circulation Librarian Anne Hurst, fewer books have, been taken by students this year than last. As a matter of fact, students are not even the major cause of missing books from the DuPont-Ball Library, according to Miss Smith. Earlier this year the library staff decided that the cause was persons other than- Stetson students. To combat this, they instituted the Sunday ID card check and certain hours for outside students. This, according to Miss Smith, has cut the number of books stolen drastically, despite the new system of open stacks of the library. For those unfamiliar with the old Sampson Library, an explanation may be necessary. In the old library, students had to have a pass to go into the back where the stacks were located, whereas, in the new library, one may walk among the open stacks, thus releasing visitors from the confines of passing. a check point. But, the point that the librarians make is that in this atmosphere of; less supervision, fewer books are taken. This comes as a mild surprise to the administration. As Miss Smith says, "It (theft) is not as bad as we thought it would be." Another blow to those who think that Stetson students are basically dishonest is that as Miss, Hurst says, the loss of books during the move from Sampson Hall was nil, contrary to the statements and thoughts of many people. As of the yearly inventory taken last July, there were 408 books missing. Since •• that time 80 of these have ben" returned, leaving a deficit of 328 still out This-represents a cost to the University of $2,913>52: which is in turn passed on to the students. This,figure for book' replacements is stated by Miss Hursr to .be $6.09 average price for the. book and $2.50 for processing „,Jn a spot check of two sections taken- in January, 252. books were missing from two of the .mdst" popular sections'. Since that time sixteen of these books have been returned, ussually at night through the night deposit drop. Miss Smith, who is; currently completing her twenty-fifth year at.Stetson, says that the staff is well satisfied with results from the Sunday check, and she personally is pleased in the fact that there is no need for a guard, whose use she deplores as an insult to the 98 per cent of the honest students. The fact is that.the present cost of replacing books is cheaper than the salary they would have to pay a guard. The most prevalent reason for book theft among students is to avoid responsibility of returning the book on time and having the book out for convenience sake. But when books are missing, this means an inconvenience to students and.professors, since the ones missing are i- variably the ones most in demand. Punishment for book theft, according to Joe Garner, Men's Council President, is dealt directly by the Interdisciplinary .Committee. ; So pat yourselves on the back ; students' and continue to show everyone by your actions, rather than words, that you are basically honest, not dishonest. *0 -o 800 Parents Expected To Attend Weekend Activities Planned\cpk Semin^ PARENTS' WEEKEND COMMITTEE — Members of this group were solely responsible for planning, organizing and coordinating all of the weekend's activities.

Perry Jr., president and chairman of the board of Perry Publications Inc., told Stetson University business students - yesterday. Speaking before the entire business school student body, Perry quoted the late; Sir Wins-, ton Churchill: "Some people regard free enterprise as a tiger to be shot. Others look at it as a cow they can milk. Not enough people see it as a healthy horse pulling a sturdy wagon." •• : • ." • AMERICAN SYSTEM" ' ;; : Said Perry: "Consider it what you will, free enterprise is the system'' we Americans have chosen as our own. No one'has ever Claimed it is .perfect".. . . it wouldn't have been interesting if it were .*. ."but the fact remains that free enterprise is what has made this country great." Perry can well champion the free enterprise economy. From humble beginnings in Kentucky, the Perry family built a large enterprising organization which, among other things, publishes 24 . daily and weekly Florida newspapers, including the De- Land Sun News.
