COORDINATION F0fg; TWO INSTITUTIONS (Continued From Page One) Woman's college amounting to sound value is properly applicable to the payment of its debts and under resolution of the trustees of that Institution can be so applied. "We furthermore have In hand a guarantee of other gifts or subscriptions aggregating $23,967.46.

The guarantors have already made liberal subscriptions. "While the subscriptions and gifts have not reached the expected goal, yet in our judgment the amount of them is sufficient to enable the two institutions to be consolidated. "The matter, therefore, stands as follows: "Amount of subscriptions and gifts $200,849.00 "Undesignated general endowment of Greenville Woman's college applicable to the payment of its 75,583.54 "Guarantee of other subscriptions and contributions 23,967.46 "Total $300,000.00 "Other moneys are vitally needed for the Institutions and we have, therefore, determined to carry forward the campaign with the idea of securing the full amount originally contemplated, to-wit, $350,000. "The executive committees anil, the steering committee authorizfj the continuance of the campaign for additional subscriptions with the hope that the total amount ultimately subscribed would reach the sum of $350,000, providing some allowance for shrinkage. "It was brought out that there had been delays because of weather conditions.

Moreover, the interim between the conclusion of the Greenville campaign and March 31 made it physically impossible to visit all sections of the state and strategic centers outside of the state. Wherever the committees have gone they have met with warm reception. It is known that a great many persons Interested in the institutions have not yet been approached for contributions. In many cases voluntary contributions have been sent in as an expression of interest in the institutions and desire to see the two institutions permanently coordinated, "It was brought out in the meeting that a good many subscriptions that have been made have not reached the campaign office and therefore have not been counted in the total. Workers from Greenville cooperating with committees in various sections will continue the campaign.

Interest manifested Justifies the belief that by the end of the summer the full $350,000 will have been subscribed. "President B. E. Geer was loud in his praise of the members of the executive committees of the two institutions who voluntarily agreed to guarantee the difference between subscriptions to date and the total amount necessary to effect the permanent coordination of the two colleges, especially since all of these guarantors had already made geafL erous pledges."
