It makes available to all of us the accumulated knowledge, understanding, and wisdom of the best minds in the world. Thomas Carlyle once wrote, “The true university of these days is a collection of books.” Perhaps Carlyle has overstated it slightly, even for his time; but it is surely true that without a strong library we could not be an excellent University. I appreciate and endorse the splendid efforts of students in the Class of 1983 to raise funds as a class gift for the support of the University library. Paul Olum, President University of Oregon We Can Make a Difference Your first tax-deductable donation will not be due until spring 1984. This gift will demonstrate your support of the University of Oregon Library, indicate below the amount you wish to pledge. If every member of the Class of 1983 contributed just $15.00 yearly over a three year period, $148,500 endowment fund would be created. The library could then use the interest from this endowment as needed. Such a pledge is a small price to pay to ensure a future for our library - the cornerstone of this University. You will have the satisfaction of knowing you have taken positive action toward alleviating the financial difficulties being faced by the University today and in the future. To begin the pledge procedure, complete and return this card. You will be billed beginning in the spring of 1984. I wish to join my fellow class members in Library Project ’83. I pledge: □ $15.00 yearly for the next three years beginning in 1984. □ The following amount_for three years beginning in 1984.

Judge hears town/SOSC suit SALEM (AP) — A dispute between Southern Oregon State College and a group of Ashland merchants was aired in court again Monday, but the quarrel remains unresolved. Marion County Circuit Court Judge Clarke Brown heard arguments for and against a motion to dismiss a lawsuit against the college, but delayed ruling until he gets one more legal brief. Ten merchants filed suit in April to block the college from providing housing and meals to non-student groups who go to Ashland to see Shake r speare plays. It was the se cond lawsuit challenging the practice. The first, seeking $20 million in damages, was dismissed March 30. The new lawsuit, which doesn’t ask for money, con tends that the state Board of Higher Education is overstep ping its authority by allowing college facilities to be used for "general tourist uses." It asks the court to to clarify the purposes for which public buildings and other facilities can legally be used and to pro hibit activities that don’t meet those requirements.
