Plans Made
for Financial
Endowment
Three plans have been worked
out to raise^funds for the mainten-
ance «f T.W.C. The campaigns will,
begin immediately after the meet-
ing0 of the Central Texas Conference
in Fort Worth, Nov. 12.
"In outline the plans are:
Immediate relief for which the five
Methodist -conferences of Texas are
expected to raise their total annual
appropriations from $10,000 to $.25,-
000. By this means the college will
be able to become a member of the
Southern Association of Colleges.
This appropriation would be equiva-
lent to hte income on a $500,000 en-
dowment.
Toward an nedowment of $500,000 *
and payment of debt, the conferences
by individual subscription and sOlici- ^
will be organized into clubs to raise
tation donations ranging from $50 to
15,000.
Of the $500,000, 75 per cent will
go toward a permanent endowment
fund. The other 25 per cent will be
used to pay off indebtedness of the
college and to maintain it until the
half-million dollar endowment is
completed. A separate board of
trustees will be named to administer
the endowment fund.
-.Contributors to the fund of $500,-
000 will be given trust certificates to ,
show the amount they have subscrib-
ed and to give them assurance that
their money will be returned if T.W.
C.' ever becomes other than a wom-
