IHaving A Lunch Buck Of Baghdadl We had been cliugging peace- fuliy along for about ani hour wheni we passed a canoe onit wýa'y to Amara with a Sheïkh. He, asrecognized by our youing teacher and liailed from the deck of our mnotor boat. To my sur- prise atter some talk he camne aboard our vesse], tying his canoe on behind, and proccedcd back down the river with us, As lic must have already paddied for three or four hours on his îourney, to return on lis tracks witli us was a vcry liandsomne gesture. We were by now quite a large party, for Mustapha had locked up the car at Kahia and corne with us and the Sheikh was accompanicd by a very black companion, his personal body servant or slave. So it was quite a crowd of people who, about two hours later, stepped off the. boat at a smal mars'i village . Greetings over we were led by the mraie population into the vil- lage guest house. When our eyeaý became accustomned to the cool golden gloom we loQked around with încreasing surprise and re- spect. The framework was seven ar-ches of bundied reeds (these arches go always in odd nuruber5 as do the coffee pots) beautifuhLy finished and bound witli grass, ")Ver themn were 'laid long ribs of rraaIl bundiles of canes firmnly tied to the supporting arches and coVered overali by woven mat- ting, At each' end four colurnns soarcd into the gloom, the back completely, closed by a m-at screen, the front haîf closed ta ahlow entmance. The floor was covered fromf- side to side by more woven mats except for a square of earth near the front of the house. . . , The, recds lad died to a .vonderful, yellow bmown whicli glowed in the fil- tered sunshine and set off tIc scarlet rugs and the black abas and checkercd hcaddrcsses of the mcen. Buildings like this have altered very Ilittie since Sumneri- ain timies, and Mvustapha the driver let out, as we did, a long breath of admiration. Lunch, when it came, was spread before us on, a plastic table-cloth on the floor: rice, fiaIs, flit round bead and a swect pink dish resembling mashed tumnips. We ate with fingers anid spoons in a curious mixture of Western and Eastern habits but it stilI tasted excellent and we just hoped that the village haad not been completely robbed of its food stocks in order to feed sucli unexpected guests. Afterwards, while vwe chatted courteously. , we observedï theë teadlier, by namne Habib, sitting just ouitside the house hold'ing forth to an en- tlralled audience of men and boys.-Frômi "Bagýhdad and Bei- yondc," by Mora lickson.

In Los Angeles, a group of teen-agers invented a mloderm form of book, burnig; they tossed lighted matches down a library's book- return chute. In Kaimuki, out- side Honolulu, high-school stu- dents sit on the library steps, singing, playing uikuleles - and necking, And in countless l- braries from coast to coast, arti- cles on, Edgar Allan Poe and J. D. Salinger have mysteriously been elipped froïn referencek books. Sometimes only the book covers are left, discardetl in wastebaskets. Vanýdalismy in the reading rooms is a nationwide pheno-me- non, and last month, as m-illions of vacationing teen-agers f locked to the librarlIes to work on term papers, the problem was at its worst. "'The twelve days of Chiristmý.as," says one uanhappy librarian, "are like Walpurgis- nacht (a witches' Sabbath) with books," Rowdiness, theft, and im-utila- tion of books have become se commonplace that the American Library Association's next annual convention, to be hfeld at Cli;- eago ini July, will concentrate on the student-use crisis. Recently, the authoritsative Wilson Library Journal devoted an issue to the crisis and offered this lyrîcal -summa',ry of the student view: Oh, wce'Il be rockin' in the referenice room And twistin' in the stecks We'11 change Uttie oldà To ravin g mancacs. The rhyme is hardly exaggera- tion., The public ibrary in Brooklyn estim'ates that mutila- tion and thef t (notý entirely caused by teen-agers, of course) costs &bout $500,O0O annlually, or 7.1 Per cent of the librar-y's an- nual budget This dent in the finances mrakes book ends hard to meet, in Baltimore, the Enocli Pratt Free Library repot ta as more and more teen-agers rock and twist into thie readlng roomn, fewrer and fewer adultg show Up. Ironically, ont major reason for ail the trouble is the uýpgrad- ing of American education dur- ing the past five years. Since sputnik, says Harold L. Hamii,, City Librarian in Los Angeles, where juvenile rowdiness lias caused the temporary closingo two libraries, "teachers feel it's more imaginative and mrecre- ative to send the student to the library to do original research thani to have himr rely on a text- book." When a Los Angeles junior- high teacher presented her inter- nationial-relations students with a miimeographied list of sug-gested source books, the resuit1, one li- brary officiai points out, was "a run on the library of epic and horrendous proportions." Few libraries, even the 13 per cent which have imposed special restrictions on young borrowers or hiave hired bounicers to police their readîng rooms, want to throw out the teen-agers per- mnaniently. "Don't get me wýrong," Hamill says. "We welcome these students and hope that this ex- owni lioraries open longer, and mnaRe better use of existing facil- ities. In the long run, however, the taxpayers will probably have to increase their financial sup- port if lîbraries are to keep up with the dual explosions __ of population and of knowlIedge, Fo0 r genierations, librarians have been trying to figure ouf ways 0f getting teen-agaers into the reading roomrs. Now that they're in, the problem is what to do with them., -from NEWSWEEK Terrible Squalor Found In London The harsh experienjces of g.
