" 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

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. H
