Thomas A. Harris, an insurance man who is helping in the drive to save the Westbury Senior Citizens' program, said Sunday almost 80 per cent of the money needed to keep the project going had been raised. Harris' estimate followed one of the drive's major fund-raising events- a concert at the high school that drew about 1,000 persons. The 13-year-old program provides education, artistic and social programs for about 170 persons who participate regularly. It faced extinction because its funds were cut from the city budget in an economy move.

Harris said he did not know exactly how much money had been raised by the concerts because for adults, $1 for students-had been sold through school music teachers and the funds would not be counted until Tuesday. Harris said other funds on hand included about $400 from a pre-Halloween candy sale, $1,200 from the raffle of a color television set and $875 in general donations from local residents and people elsewhere who I read about the program.
