Students Demonstrate
For New Library Hours
On Monday, March 5 at noon, a
group of students demonstrated
for Sunday library hours. Doctor
Davidson, President of the Uni­versity,
met with the officers of
s t u d e n t governing bodies on
Wednesday, March 7. The stu­dents
urged the President to re­view
the Library's Sunday policy.
The activities of the demonstra­tors
included large banners with
such slogans as, "We have a li­brary,
but never on Sunday,"
written on them. Handbills pro­testing
the present policy of the
University Library concerning the
use of facilities were distributed.
The song, "Never On Sunday,"
was played through an outdoor
public address system.
The idea of Sunday library
hours originated in the University
Student Senate during the Octo­ber
12 meeting. Jim Galloway,
voting member, suggested that the
Senate try to do something about
having the library open on Sun­days.
Dave Vaughn, vice-presi­dent,
stated that a committee from
the Senate should be formed to
approach a member of the admin­istration
about leaving the library
open on Sunday. His suggestion
was approved and the Library
Committee was established. Jim
Galloway was ·appointed chair­man.
At the October 26 meeting of
the Senate, Jim Galloway report­ed
the following. The Library
Committee had talked to Miss
Schneider from the Library Staff.
She said it would be difficult to
open the University on Sunday.
There were only four librarians
and they would have to alternate
every fourth Sunday.
Soon after roll was called dur-

ing the December 14 Senate meet­ing,
the Library Committee re­ported
that the University Library
could not be opened on Sundays
this year. The Library Staff would
try to make arrangements for
next year depending on their
budget.
Elizabeth ·wong, at the Febru­ary
22 Senate meeting urged that
the Senate take all necessary ac­tion
to see that the University Li­brary
be opened on Sundays for
the benefit of the students. This·
proposal w a s unanimously ap­proved
by the Senate.
"The working students and the
resident students particularly
should be allowed to use library
facilities on Sunday. This is of
main concern to all students, how­ever,
because of the demands
placed on students by instructors
to use books and periodicals that
can not be checked out of the Li­brary,"
Miss Wong explained af­ter
the meeting.
Tom Rich who participated in
the demonstrations last Monday
made the following comment. "We
felt the demonstrations were nec­essary
because the administrators
of the library had repeatedly re­jected
students appeals for Sun­day
library hours. It was essential
to prove to the administrators that
the student body sincerely be­lieves
in the privilege of studying
in the library on Sunday."

Draft Board
Eligibility Test
Now Available
Applications for the Selective
Service Qualification Test to be
given on April 17 are now avail­able
to college students at the Se­lective
Service local boards
throughout Kentucky. Lt. Colonel
Everette S. Stephenson, State Di­rector
for Kentucky Selective Ser­vice,
has announced.
The University of Louisvlle is
one of nine Kentucky colleges at
which the test will be adminis­tered.
Scores made on the test will
provide local boards with evidence
of aptitude for continued under­graduate
and graduate study. The
scores will not of themselves de­termine
eligibility for deferment,
but are considered with other in­formation
in determining whether
to defer individual registrants for
further study.
The applicant must be a Selec­tive
Service Registrant who in­intends
to seek deferment as a
student. He may take the test only
once. Applications for the test
must be postmarked no later than
midnight, Tuesday, March 27. Stu­dents
may o b t a i n from local
b o a r d s an "Application Card"
(SSS Forms NOs. 106 and 107)
and a "Bulletin of Information."
To be eligible to take the test,
the applicant must be satisfactor­ily
pursuing a full-time college
course, undergraduate or gradu­ate,
leading to a degree. He need
not be a student of a four-year
college, but his entire course of
study must be satisfactory for
transfer of credits to a degree­granting
institution.
"At the present time," Colonel
Stephenson said, "Kentucky local
boards reach men for induction at
about age 23. Students generally
can finish or be nearly through
their undergraduate studies at
that age, but those hoping to con­tinue
studies in graduate school,
for example, will need a defer­ment
to do so. Also, heavier draft
calls would lower the age at
which local boards reach men.
Senior Granted
Two Scholarships
Thomas Westbrook, a s e n i or
mathematics major, has won the
1962 Humphrey Centenary Schol­arship.
He plans to use this grant
to study next year at Oxford Uni­versity
in England.
The Humphrey Centenary Scho­larship
was set up especially for
University of Louisville students
and provides transportation, tui­tion,
room, , board, and a cash
stipend for advanced study at any
school in the United Kingdom.
Westbrook, who is also the re­cipient
of a Woodrow Wilson Fel­lowship,
entered the University in
1960 after his junior year of high
school. He will receive his degree
after only three years at the Uni­versity.
