R.J.REYNOLDS CONTRIBUTS TO EFFORT TO SAVE CAPE HATTERAS LIGHTHOUSE The effort to uve the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse received s 530,000 boost todsy from R.J. Reynolds Industries/ Inc., of Winston-Salem. The announcement was made by Hugh Morton, statewide vice chairman of the campaign, and John G. Medlin Jr., Forsyth County Chairman. "The generous gift from Reynolds is a significant step toward achieving our 51,000, 000 goal." Morton said. "We hope this pacesetter contribu tion will spur other companies and individuals to support the project." "This major gift is further evidence of Reynolds' excep tional corporate citizenship in North Carolina over the years." said Medlin. "It virtually assures that Forsyth County will be successful in raising its share of the goal/' "We heartily support the campaign's purposes," said J. Paul Sticht, chairman of R.J. Reynolds Industries. 1 T < "The Cape Hatteras Light- | house is not only an important , historical asset of our home { state, it is also a major tourist ' .attraction. It brings many visitors and much additional spending which help create jobs for North Carolina's people." The fkllest lighthouse in the nation, the Cape Hatteras structure was erected more than one hundred years ago in an area nearly one-half mile from the sea. Erosion and , storm damage have claimed J most of that area, and the , lighthouse currently stands jess than 250 feet from the ( ocean. The fund-raising plan to rescue the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse was announced last year by U.S. Senator Jesse Helms and Governor James B. Hunt, Jr., co chairman of the campaign. The money will be used for improvements to prevent fur ther erosion that threatens the structure's stability. Keynote speaker Dr. Helen fry>itinrt m she kHiiww Senior member* of the group ?re mis.
