Periodical buys
exceed budget
The library budget allocation for
periodicals was not adequate to meet
the need for new-purchases last year,
according to Miss Linda J. Dugger,
periodicals librarian.
Miss Dugger said that$95,000 was ap-
propriated for purchase of periodicals
and microfilm copies of them. She said
that over $108,000 was spent on new
magazine subscriptions, back issues of
newspapers, and other materials.
She said that she had to borrow funds
from the book purchasing budget and
from a supplemental grant to cover the
extra expenditures for necessary
materials such as microfilm copies of
earlier issues of the “Dallas Morning
News” and the “London Times.”
Explaining the need to spend more
than was appropriated, she said that
the cost of magazines, newspapers, and
microfilm went up more than was an-
ticipated. She also said that the
library’s 3,187 periodicals were all
valuable resources for information.
She said that her figures indicate that
the top five magazines used in the
library are “Business Week,”
“Newsweek,” “Time Magazine,” “Ex-
ceptional Children,” and “Advertising
age.”
She added that periodicals are im-
portant because they furnish current in-
formation on many subjects before
books are published on the subjects.
Poetry Day will feature
Nebraska’s Greg Kuzma
Greg Kuzma, nationally acclaimed
poet, is to be the featured lecturer for
Poetry Day Thursday.
Dr. George W. de Schweinitz, English
professor, is acting as spokesman for
the event.
'Pulse9 deadline
is now Oct. 31
The deadline for Pulse, student
literary journal, has been extended to
Oct. 31, according to Cathy and Mark
Evans, Pulse editors.
“The number of contributions received
from Lamar students has been ex-
ceedingly small. Pulse is a student jour-
nal and requires support of campus
participation,” said Ms. Evans, ex-
plaining the deadline extension.
Any student may submit material.
The categories are:
Eleanor Poetry Award - best poem by
any student.
Pulse Short Fiction Award - best
short story with a maximum of 3000
words.
Professor’s Poetry Award - most
creative work in a conventional form.
Pulse Essay Award - short essay un-
der 3,000 words.
Entries may be submitted to the
English office, 03 Liberal Arts. They
should be typed, double-spaced and in
triplicate. Carbon or xerox copies will
be accepted.
On a separate sheet should be the
author’s name, major, academic stan-
ding and any information concerning
previous publications.
No more than nine submissions for
each category will be accepted. Entries
will not be returned.
“Our cash awards may vary,” said
Dr. Olga Harvill, associate professor of
English and sponsor. ‘The Eleanor
Poetry Award nas never been less than
$25, the Professor’s Award has never
been less than $20 and we also have
other cash awards. We are attempting
to establish cash awards for art work,
also.”
We apologize
There are two corrections to
last week's story about the
Iranian students arrested in
Houston (page 1) . Seventeen
students rather than seven were
arrested. Also, the article stated
that workers reportedly made
comparable to 75 cents an hour. It
should have read 75 cents a day.
The U,P regrets the mistakes.
