CARD-C carrying ARLINGTONLANS
Readers Are Vorocious, Numerous
BY JOHN BARRON
Star Staff Writer

Many American librarians
have to worry not so much
about books as about how to
lure an indifferent public into
reading them.
In Arlington, however, a cur
rent concern of the librarians
is how to avert a trampling by
the rush of readers hungry for
information regarding every
thing from scorpions to space.
About one in every four coun-
ty residents now is a card
carrying reader. Last year the
borrowers took home an aver
age of more than 16 books
each.
This is just unheard Of"
says Mrs. Jane Nida, director
of the library.
But she thinks that her pa
irons are perhaps even more
distinguished from the average
by what and how they read.
They tend to yawn at the
posses and plains of Westerns,
but are captivated by sophiSti-
Gated criminals and foggy
streets running through mys-
terieS.
Generally they pass over
practical, how-to-do-it volumes
in favor Of those discussing the
theory of how things are done.
Politics Popular
Light fiction ranks at the
bottom Of reader preference.
Treatises about politics and
space are at the top.
Best-seller lists do not in
fluence reader choice as much
as do individual judgments
based upon reviews.
Elsewhere in the country. Ii
ibrarieS are most empty during
the summer. In Arlington, they
are most crowded then.
Library systems usually find
that the majority of their Gus
toners are children, according
to Mrs. Nida. The majority in
Arlington are adults and high
school students.
Mrs. Nida and her colleagues
attribute the volume and pat
tern of reading to the educa-
tional level of county residents,
the proportion Of professional
people among them, ,stheir prox-
unity to the major world news
center. and the general addic-
ton to Tearing which now

find more time. Two weeks ago
the county opened a spacious
$583,000 central library. 1t re-
placed an old one which was
lending some 5000 books
weekly. 1t has distributed about
$4,000 volumes in its first two
weeks, and in the first few days
of its operation 432 more people
asked for library cards.
One of the aids to the speed
Ter processing Of books is the
library's Brodac machine which
automatically records check
outs on sensitized paper and
then files the record, eliminat-
ing another operation for the
librarian.

Mrs. Nida has a parochial
pride in all her readers except
one comparatively rare type,
the thief, and she is even chari-
table toward most of them.

thieves who anonymously re-
turn stolen books through the
drops we maintain partly for
the conscience-stricken," she
said.
"Of course, some books we
never get back. We've lost four
copies of Seminow's Questions
and Answers on Real Estate
It's very popular because it's
used as a text for the State
real estate exam"

The Yiddish theater in the past
200 years has built up a vast
repertoire. With the decline in Yid-
disappearing populations, the fate
of this treasure is in doubt.

the drama of the Yiddish theater
to the Phoenix community.

ers will present IAN Evening of
Jewish Theater" at 8:15 at Temple

Highlighting the presentation will
be the first performance in Ari-
zona of Bernard Goldfaden's "Shu-
lamith," a capsule operetta. Gold
faden was considered the father of
the Yiddish theater and his operas
had great popularity during the
last part of the 10th century and
the early part of the goth century.
They have remained virtually un-
touched for the past 25 years.
"Shulamith" is an example of the
first Yiddish Theater brought to
the United States. The c e n t e T
Players had great difficulty in To-
eating the score as the music is out
of print.
The other two plays to be pre-
sented are "The Visitor" folk
piece, shtetl play, and Holiday, :"
a contemporary play. Neither play
has ever been done in Arizona.
