    Brooks Exhibit
'Unveiling' Set
For Saturday
Room Will House
Collector's Choice
For Ideal Library
By EDITH OGLESBY
Outstanding feature of Library
day Saturday will be the first
public showing of the Philip Ran
ney Brooks memorial library,
which was donated to the Uni
versity by Mrs. Lester Brooks,
the collector’s mother.
The exhibit will be open for
public inspection, according to
Librarian M. H. Douglass.
The collection, which is housed
in a new room, built especially
for that purpose on the third
floor of the library, is represen
tative of the ideal personal li
brary. It contains many stand
ard works of English and Amer
ican authors, with several trans
lations of French works. In the
main, the books are not collec
tor’s items, but are fine editions,
designed to be read by book
lovers.
Furnishings Included
The memorial gift includes fur
nishings of the room with paint
ings and bookcases formerly in
Mr. Brooks’ personal library. The
wrought-iron gates at the en
trance to the room are also from
the Brooks home.
Besides the standard works,
there are several old books in the
collection, purportedly from the
personal library of Charles I,
bought in a London second-hand
shop. The book has the royal coat
of arms stamped on both covers
and notes have been written
throughout the volume, which is
a 1540 edition of the Epigrams of
Martial.
Use Restricted
The present intention is to lim
it the use of the room mainly to
graduate students, for whom it
will serve as a reading lounge.
The books are not to be circu
lated but will be accessible to
faculty members and advanced
English students by special per
mission.
It is expected that an oil por
trait of Philip Ranney Brooks,
painted by Sydney Bell, will be
unveiled at the preview of the
library following the Friends of
the Library dinner Friday eve
ning.

ASUO Nominations
Slated for Tuesday
ASUO nominations, previously
scheduled for yesterday, have
been postponed until Tuesday to
provide for vote on an enlarging
amendment and for nomination of
six new candidates. To make
this possible, the executive com
mittee amended their by-laws
which provide that nominations
be held a week before elections.
The amendment passed over
whelmingly yesterday, 154-3, is
an outgrowth of agitation from
persons who argued that the
present executive committe is not
truly representative of the cam
pus.
The new amendment was word
ed to allow a person scholastical
ly able to run for office as a rep
resentative of his “class” to do
so whether or not he is a “mem
ber.”
