UGF Success

To: All Members of the University
Family

On October 2, with the help
of The Cavalier Daily, I appealed
to you, on behalf of the
United Givers Fund, to meet
our goal of $41,000 in the 1968
drive as the University's share of
the community's need for
$326,125.

Now James J. Benshoff,
Chairman of the University Division,
has reported on behalf of
his 70 fellow workers the receipt
from you in gifts and
pledges of $45,847.40, a total
of 111% of our assigned quota!
Student and staff workers were
especially effective in achieving
this splendid result. The Chairman
mentions with special gratitude
the campaign work of Bill
Nixon with his Inter-Fraternity
Council Committee and of Whit
Clement with the Cavalier Fund
Drive.

All of you in this campaign
have had an opportunity to express
in a tangible way your
concern for our fellow men. The
response has been superb, and
you have helped to make this
community a better place. For
this I am happy and grateful.
