Starved Bum Eats Wampus
The University of the Pnilippines. destroyed by American forces in the liberation campaign of 1945, has been designated as the recipient of books to be contributed by SC's students and faculty.
In memory of SC students and alumni who fought in the Pacific area and in order to give it a distinct personality, a wing assigned for the books will be called the Trojan Memorial library.
Under the sponsorship of the YMCA. collection stations for books will be located on campus Apr. 5-16. All types of books are welcome, said David Evans, chairman of the drive.
BOOKS NEEDED
According to Vice-Consul Pelayo Llamas of the Philippine consulate in Los Angeles. English is the language of all schools in the republic. Because 85 per cent of the libraries in the islands were lost during the war, the need for books printed in English*-is great, he said.
Located in Manila, the university is the largest in the Philippines. Its 16.000 students hold classes in quonset huts, tents, and in the remaining battered buildings that survived the occupation of the Japanese and the American campaign.
