Student -Faculty 7 eir Makes Plans For Hov Aple Memorial Chapel r omas UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA CROWING FOR A GREATER CAROLINA Z676 VTolumie XXXVII, No. 24 ,~COLIMBIA, SOUI CARIOLINA, FRIDAY, JUNE i', 1944 June Student Facult' Discusses Men Faculty Members I Marshall Heads Noi Plans for a memorial chapel fute years, wcere liscuissed I Faculty-Sttent steering contt David Freeman, clairmant, op fronm tlie secretatttry, Ann Royall that the contmittee hn<d but one this semester, therefore new mt " Jane Brooks Marshall was made Chairman of a nominating commit tee: with her are Isabelle McCants, Dick Dusenburv, and Jinny Brock man. ''hey will present names at the next meeting and the committee will elect the new members. Bill Tidwell, who was asked to Investigate the progress of the Alumni Council on the new phapel, then reported that after a conferencc with Ralph Lewis, Alumni secre tary, that the approximate cost of the proposed chapel would be $250, 000 to $300,000. M,. Lewis said that if the chapel fund ; dcpend. ent entirely on contribution from alumni it would be too long in the a making. 3 Legislative appropriation was rea lized as the only means whereby such a suni could be raised. But it was shown that only absolute stu dent backing and enthusiasm would bring this action. The committe< decided by dent of this fact to fort a Chapel Committee, made up of the heads of strong and interestec groups on the campus, who wouk make the campus chapel-conscious This committee would also instigate ways and means of raising money. Mr. Lewis had said that the 'Alumni was against taking such a tremendous project if it felt it might fail. Professional money raisers hat * been investigated, but refused t< take the job at thi4 time. Mrs A. R. Childs, (lean of women, said "I am against quitting because it's too 'ig, we can do it." )can Childh suggested that the University fol low a plan similar to that being used by Columbia College, that of buying bonds and awaiting their maturity Citizens and Alumui who wish tc contribute could buy a bond and give it to the Chapel fund, in which way they would he doing a patriotic deed as well as working for a great er Carolina and State. Dean W. H. Calcott, Registrar, said, "It is not preposterous, our new library was once as prepos terous." Also suggested was that wvar stamp books be placed in the Scanteen where students could place stamps, instead of on the wall. These stamps would be put in the chapel fund..- It was felt that if a third or a half of the amount were raised by the University that the legislature would more readily cont sider our request. 'rhe presidents of all the organi zations on the campus who form the Chapel committee will meet in the near future to discuss plans, and to elect other members to their num ber from the faculty, or Alumni.

Library Completes Exchange List Will Be Available To Reference Libraries The library completed its ex change lists of duplicate and extra periodicals and sent theni to mem bers of the Duplicate Exchangc Union May 22. Mrs. Beatrice R. Caine, head of the periodical de .a n had charge of compiling the 19-page mimeographed lists. The union is a cooperative organi. zation of about 65 or 70 college, university, and reference libraries, It is a project by which they can give and receive periodicals to com plete their volumes, and the only expense involved is the time of staff members and exprese charges. 'The University library has already begun receiving daily requests from other libraries, the first being from the University of Georgia. 'T'le organization was formerly known as the Periodical Exchange Union, and each member had a number according to the amcunt of money that institution spent on periodicals. Those which spent th< most money were given preferenct in requests. The day that the University's lists were ready to go out, they received a notice that the procedurt had been changed, and that requests would be filled as they were received. Mrs Caine made a new stencil for the first page of the list on which were the instructions, and sent then out; therefore, this library was the first to send out a list under the new rul ing. Many requests have been ex pedited by air mail. Any periodicals not sent in this exchange will be donated to the paper salvage drive. Mrs. Caine worked on the com pilation of the list for six weeks. In the future she hopes to send out a list bi-annually.

Students Asket To Wait Week After Depositing Checks Mrs. Virginia Pulliam L entz, as sistant manager of the University depository, asks that when studlents deposit checks they should wait one week before dIrawing on the mioney so that the checks can clear. She suggests that enough nuoney be drawn to last a week, andl all checks should be umade out to the U niver sity dlepository. Students should keep their re ceipts, andl should put their camuts address on all checks. There is an exchange fee of 10 cents for all out of-townu checks cashed at the de pository, regardless of the par salue. Mrs. Lentz says that because of the paper shortage, if an error is made in writing the date on a check, it may be scratched out and written over. For the continual date-of-the month inquirers, she reminds thenm that there tre two calendars in her office. Hours of the depository are 10 a. m. to 1 p. m. and 3 p. m. to 5 n. mi. tFor Alumni In North A \ XI as tbey centered attention on the lat: off, Army General Staff Corps, of N< rence, formerly with the FBI and lat police; Lieut.

ERRATUM The story that appeared in the Gamecock of May 16, 1944, bear ing the headline "Dean Motley named head of planning commit tee" should have read that Mr. W. H. Ward of the Extension ( Division of the University of i South Carolina was appointed chairman of the post-war plan ning committee by Dr. J. Rion c McKissick, president of the Uni .versity. Dr. E. T. Motley, dean of the school of pharmacy, is a e member of the committee. For the mistake the Gamecock takes full responsibility, and as sures all concerned that it shall never happen again.
