PAGE 4—The Newberry Sun, Newberry, S. C., Thursday, Oct. 21, 1971 Dr. Baker agent for Duke drive Dr. Ralph P. Baker of New berry has been named a class agent for Duke University’s 1971-72 Loyalty Fund drive. One of about 450 such agents across the nation, Dr. Baker will be contacting fellow Duke alumni for contributions to the fund. Each year the drive is con ducted under the auspices of Duke University National Coun cil. Council chairman Fred C Frostick, Jr. of South Charles ton, W. Va. announced that nearly 2,000 volunteers will be involved in this 25th anniver sary drive, including class a- gents, some 200 “telethon” cam paigners and more than 1,00( additional area workers. The over-all campaign goal for 1972-71 is $1 million, Fros tick declared. He added that “The Silver Anniversary year is a parti cularly appropriate one in which to even surpass that total.” An added incentive to the drive, he noted, is that under the terms of the extended Ford Foundation Challenge Grant to Duke, Loyalty Fund contribu tions will be matched on a one to four basis. Last year’s fund campaign hit a new all-time high with $900, 682 being contributed by some 15,000 supporters. The figures represent an in crease of almost 1,700 donors and some $54,000 in contribu tions over the 1969-70 campaign, Duke alumni officials said. President of the General Alumni Association this year is P. J. Baugh, Charlotte, N.C. industrialist and state senator. Baugh explained that Loyalty Fund contributions are used exclusively for support of edu cational programs within the various schools and colleges at Duke, differing in this re spect from other fund-raising efforts within the university. Newberry foes suffer set backs While Newberry was defeat ing Wofford Saturday for the first time since 1959, the In dians’ opponents for the most part, were losing their games.
