Kellam, university libra rian, has announced that begin D- ning yesterday the fines on over n. due books was increased from two to five cents per day. ig This Increase in fines is not be ing brought about for an increase in revenue for the library but is ig a measure to procure the return of books so that one student will a not take unfair advantage of other f. students whose need is as great, Kellam said. r The present fine of two cents per day has not been sufficient to ie, induce students to return the 18 books promptly. It is hoped by n. officials of the library that the to new plan will do this. 1 Scholarships To - McArthur Instal rs : Dr. Francis Gaines be - To Address Alumni th * At Columbia Hotel A Dr. Francis Pendleton Gaines, Pr a president of Washington and Lee de university, and a native of South y Carolina, will addrgss alumni of se othe university at a meeting in in: to Columbia today at the Crystal se Room of the Hotel Columbia. sis ttil ed Dr. Gaines, a gifted speaker an who makes addresses in more than 20 states each year, has recently wl e published a book on Southern ora- to tory.
