Daily Receives
Two Volumes
Of Past Copies
Early volumes of a newspaper are
prize possessions, and The Daily now
boasts complete copies of its own first
volumes, published during the ses-
sions 1890-91 and 1891-92, donated
by Daily alumnus F. J. McElwee, '92,
of Detroit, following the fiftieth anni-
versary banquet of The Daily.
Before this gift had been received,
The Daily had only a defective copy
of its-first volume and no copies of
volume two.
Mr. McElsee, following his gradua-
tion from the University in 1892'
went to New York to seek a job on
the New York Sun. Chester Lord
was then editor of that newspaper.
Upon discovering that McElwee had
been a member of The Daily staff,
he told McElwee: "Young man,
that's the best college paper in the
United States. Come down in the
morning."'
After two years on the Sun, {Mc-
Elwee studied law under Henry Daily,
well-known lawyer and counsel to
J. P. Morgan & Co., and was ad-
mitted to the bars of New York,,
Kentucky and Tennessee, but he
never took up the practice of law.

George II of Greece stated it
'the settled policy of the
States Government to extend

toward the granting of loan
credits to Great Britain, the
