Literary Tastes High Among Readers, Library Chief Says

Best Books Most Popular, L.

L. Dickerson Reports; Allen

and Lewis Novels in Demand.

“Good literature” is most popular with Indianapolis readers, according to L. L. Dickerson, librarian at the Public Library. “The popularity record of the newer books is most flattering to Indianapolis readers,” he said. “Without exception the books most in demand are those which discriminating readers would select as among the best representatives of publications which have appeared in recent years. “Books most in demand during the past year unquestionably would be classed as ‘good literature.’ They are ‘Anthony Adverse,’ by Hervey Allen; ‘It Can't Happen Here,’ by Sinclair Lewis; ‘If I Have Four Apples, by Josephine Lawrence; ‘Green Lights,’ by Lloyd Douglas, and Margaret Mitchell's ‘Gone With the Wind.’

BUTLER MUST SHARE EARNINGS, IS RULING

The Indiana Supreme Court today had ordered the Marion County Superior Court to make an entry establishing the right of Mrs. May Culver Sample, Lafayette, to earnings of real estate held by Butler University. The real estate was bequeathed to the university by Mrs. Sample’s mother and stepfather, Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Whitsett. The Whitsett’'s owned the property jointly and deeded it to Butler with the provision that annual interest be paid to Mrs. Whitsett and a stepbrother. Mrs. Whitsett died before her husband, and, according to court records, Mr. Whitsett entered into a new agreement with the university which failed oto provide for Mrs. Sample, : The court rufed that Mr. Whit- | sett and the university Lad no authority to disturb the terms of

been at an exceedingly high peak at certain times and some of them still maintain a high level in public interest. One. example is George Santayana’s ‘Last Puritan,’ another is Nordhoff’s and Hall's cane,’” Mr. Dickerson said. Fhe five books which Mr. Dickerson listed as the most popular nonfiction with borrowers during 1936, are “Around the World in Eleven Years,” John Abbe; “Man, the Unknown,” by Alexis Carrel; “Wake Up .and Live!” by Dorothea Brande; “North to the Orient,” by Anne Lindbergh, and “Life With Father,” by Clarence Day.

‘Inside Europe’ Popular

Mr. Dickerson said these books have elicited the most sustained interest during the past year, but that their ranking is constantly threatened by newcomers or by the increasing popularity of slightly older books. “ ‘Live Alone and Like It,’ by Marjorie Hillis, is having a great run right now,” he said. “Rapidly gaining on the five leaders is John Gunther's ‘Inside Europe.” If the

present range of popular interest is maintained, this present day picture of what is happening in European capitals soon will overtake the leaders in popularity. “Halliburton’s ‘Seven League Boots’ had a tremendous run and seems to be catching its second wind. We may expect this, as well as the other Halliburton books, to be popular for many years.”
