(Continued on Page Eight) Development Project Realizes $438,000 Of s7(l-000 Goal The Guilford College Campus De velopment Program, progressing into its third year of a five-year drive, is heralding encouraging pros pects, according to Dr. Clyde Milner. | \' \v in ihe course of the second project with only one more to go, the program has accumulated thus tar a total of s4:i!>,ooo toward the realization of a goal amounting to $"(>1,(100 for the purpose of supply ing adequate building funds for the vast campus improvement program. The first goal of this second proj ect —an appropriation of $200,000 for the library, $100,(MX) of which is for an addition to the building and its equipment and the same amount for permanent library endowment— has already been achieved. In addi tion to this, the General Education , Board for this project has donated I $50,000 as a conditional gift which was granted when the $2(X),000 had I been raised. The first and third projects are to have been in the form of drives, such as tiie SCA Campus Chest Drive lias been; however, it is to be lmdersti od that the remainder of this second project is not a drive, but a purely voluntary enlistment of gifts, from which there is yet to be raised $150,000. This means that when this sum is donated, a . total of $889,000 will have been i raised, leaving only approximately | $175,000 to be solicited during the I third project. ! Dr. Milner also stilted that the j friends and alumni of Guilford Col lege have been indeed generous in [ their contributions and expresses a | belief that the attainment of the j goal of $701,000, and thus the con | elusion of the drive, will be accom j plished easily within the five-year I limit—possibly next year. NUMBER 3 Program Announced For Home-Coming; Alumni To Attend Tilt Some 200 alumni are expected to attend the annual Home- Coming exercises being held to day at Guilford College. Dr. Eva G.
