LUTHERAN COLLEG FUND TOPS 57000 Two $1,000 Contributions | in $100,000 Campaign Are Announced. | Two contributions of $1,000 each in addition to a number of smaller gifts have swelled the campaign fund of the Lutheran Churches of Washington to more than $37.000, it was announced to- day by Rev. H. E. Snyder, campaign di- | rector. The drive was started Tuesday | 1o raise $100,000 for the purchase of a | site on the Georgia avenue pike near | Wheaton, Md., for the erection of a| National Lutheran College for Women. | Dr. Snyder announced that the re- sponse to the appeal for funds thus far has been generous and predicted that | the $100,000 goal probably would be+ reached by the date fixed for the close of the intensive 10-day drive. “The cam- paign workers are just beginning to warm up,” he said, “and I am confi- dently expecting better results in the next few days.” “Pep” Meeting Called. Dr. Snyder has called a “pep” meet- ing of the campaign leaders and work- ers_tomorrow afternoon at 5:30 o'clock in the Luther Place Memorial Church. Progress reports will be made by the group leaders. A cafeteria dinner will be_served Dr. William J. Showalter of the cam- paign executive committee pointed out that as soon as Washington raises the initial $100,000 for the site, a campaign will be launched in the nine synods of the United Lutheran Church covering New York. New Jersey, Pennsylvania, | Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia for $1,000,000 for buildings and | $1,000,000 for endowment. A single gift | of '$25.000 already has been volunteered toward the building fund, he said, and §60,000 has been promised for the en- dowment of a chair. 1,000 Enrolilment Seen. “The college will eventually have an enrollment of 1,000 students,” Dr. Sho- walter declared, “bringing to Washing- ton an annual expenditure of $850,000 in addition to the capital outlay for buildings and equipment. The new col- lege will be a very welcome asset and source of income for the merchants, transportation companies, hotels and many other miscellaneous business in- terests of Washington. It will bring the business not only of 1,000 students, but that of visiting parents and friends. “The new college will add decidedly to the cultural and spiritual values of ‘Washington and provide a meeting place for many national Lutheran gatherings. It probably will become the great cen- ter kf'or organized Lutheran women's work.” JEWISH DELEGATES WILL BE WELCOMED| Reception to Be Held at.
