The committee solicits your ad
vice and your suggestions. This is
a community-wide challenge and
opportunity. Success in,this effort
could mean the greatest step for
ward in the entire history of
Southern Pines, and with our
people as united and as enthusias
tic as they are to bring this col
lege to our town, coupled with
bur town’s rich assets and re
sources, we should feel very opti
mistic about our chances.

SjSgt. Clarence W. Thomas. Jr..
son of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence
Thomas, Sr., of Pinehurst, recent
ly received orders transferring
him from his assignment as the
non-commissioned officer in
charge of stock records in the
464th Supply Squadron at Pope
Air Force Base to a post with the
iTactical Air Command director
of materiel at Langley Air Force
Base, Va.
Prior to his assignment at Pope,
Sgt. Thomas served at Parks Air
Force Base, Calif. He has one
overseas tour to his credit—two
ed to the Presbyterian Synod
meeting in July—an offer that
will carry particular weight be
cause it is said that an important
consideration in locating the col-
is the fact that 150 acres
minimum are needed, with the
land close enough to downtown
to permit students to walk to and
fro. It is difficult to think of any
town with a more fortunate com
bination of land and location than
Weymouth, and this will surely
weigh heavily with the selection
committee. Memorial gifts by lo
cal citizens as well as substantial
challenge funds by Moore County
Presbyterians, also can surely be
counted on.
