PRESS SCHOOL LIBRARY PLANS

Comprehensive Program to Be Ready for Legislature.

By ROBERT BLOEM When school libraries are as interesting to young Hoosiers as an atom age comic strip, the work of the state library advisory committee should be about finished. Usually it takes the state. legis-

debate to “create” a new board or commission, but the. first the law makers will hear of this one will be when its proposals appear in bill form next January. Brainchild of the department of public instruction, the little-known ‘committeé was named a year ago to, resurrect Indiana's school library program—one of the governmental casualties of war. 11 Members Named

Eleven members were appointed by State Superintendent Dr.

toward a regional setup, supervised by college or university library extension experts and providing a well-rounded service for school youngsters of all ages. “It has become apparent,” Dr. Malan said, “that our school library system is one of the weak points in our educational plan. In 1937 the state board of education ‘gave impetus to the movement with a ruling for certification of

school librarians, but the program!

was delayed almost at the beginning of the war. —Study - Basic Needs To assure bolstering of the present setup without waiting for legislative appointment of a survey committee, Dr. Malan sent the advisory committee in search of basis for a program. There are, at present, four objectives, parts of which can be put into .operation soon ' and other, portions of which may require legislative action. Here are the objectives as outlined by Dr. Malan:

She was browsing around in Miss Sallie Porter's circulating library and had just lit a cigaret, when Mrs, Bedelle came in. But how was Ann to know that she was someone important? She naturally assumed that anyone of importance in Port Drake already had called on her. And she wasn't particularly impressed at that. Miss Sallie looked fussed, and seemed at a loss as to who should be introduced to whom. She finally murmured both names, 50 rapidly it was difficult to tell which came first. Ann put down her

ties in Moscow under accusation of “hooligan” acts while escorting\a Russian opera singer home in a taxi. Mr. Ruess, a veteran of long. diplomatic service in Japan, China and Africa, is attached to the embassy in Moscow.

Ann felt slim and young and happily superior, “Perhaps you know my husband,” she said. A stupid remark, in Port Drake. But not so stupid, perhaps, as Mrs, Bedelle hadn't called. “Yes,” said Mrs, Bedelle, and her thin lips drew together. “Millicent is my most intimate friend,” she added. » " » “OH,” SAID ANN, If wasn't an adequate answer, but none she had handy at the moment seemed any more so. She waited apprehensively for the next remark, but she needn't have feared, because she was dismissed. Mrs. Bedelle turned to Miss Sallie then and Ann made her escape. She saw it was lunch-time, and as Colin had gone to Seattle, she though she'd lunch in town. A drug-store looked sufficiently in-

She was, Ann decided, not merely pretty-—she was startlingly beautiful. : ” ” » SHE ARRANGED the children on stools between herself and Ann, from the eldest next to Ann to the youngest next to herself.~Then she smiled across the row .of golden heads at Ann. “Don’t think I'm
