FOUNDERS DAY (Continued from Page I) That first building on the Elon campus was the old administration build ing, which also contained classrooms for the young college. That first struc ture, which was destroy ed by fire in 1923, was located about where the present Alamance Build ing is situated. The Elon College doors were opened to the first 76 students on Septem ber 2, 1890, that group being the forerunners of the thousands of young men and women who at tended Elon in the suc ceeding four score years. Governor Scott will be another in the series of outstanding speakers who have been guests for the Elon Founders Day pro gram in recent years, one of them having been Lyn don B. Johnson in the spring of 1962. Johnson came here while he was still vice-president and before he succeeded to the presidency following the death of Kennedy in November of that year. € m !
