SATURDAY; SEPTEMBER' 23. 1961
$8,500 Collected
For Class Gift Fund
A total of $8,500 has been collected for the Class Gift
Fund during the first three days of registration, David R.
Grubbs, senior class president announced, last night.
An additional $699 has ben pledged for the fund.
Working from figures compiled by Robert E. Beam,
director of the Alumni Fund,
Grubbs said that this figure is al
ready ahead of the total amount
collected last year. A total of
$B,lOO in cash and $542 in pledges
were collected for the fund last
year.
No breakdown giving the
amounts by classes was avail
able by press lime last night.
Grubbs said that before regis
tration the class ol '62 was the
"poorest” of the three classes. As
of last June the class of ’62 had
$3,100, the class of '63 had over
$5,000 and the class of ’64 had
almost $4,000.
One reason for the low senior
figures, Grubbs said, was that
since the class gift fund has been
established for only three years,
the class of ’62 did not contribute
as freshmen.
In the two previous years
(classes of '6O and 61) the ad
ministration had given $2 to the
fund for every $1 contributed
by the members of that class,
Grubbs said. This has been dis-

continued for this year and for
all future classes.
This year’s seniors will prob
ably vote on their class gift dur
ing winter term registration.
Grubbs said he is setting up a
committee within the senior class
advisory board to sift suggestions
for the ’62 gift.
He said that ballots will prob
ably be available during winter
registration. It is hoped, he said,
that by June graduation the ’62
gift will be ready for use.
