SEWANEE ENDOWMENT

ATLANTA, Ga, June 5. (Spl)-At a
luncheon here Wednesday Milton OAR
gan, prominent throughout the South
as an insurance man, took charge of
the campaign to raise a million dollar
endowment for the University of the
South at Sewanee in so far as this do
cese Of the Episcopal church is con-
cerned, with a quota of SIS, 900. Bishop
Mikell presided and addresses were
made by Bishop Gailor, of Tennessee,
and Col. Luke Lea, ex-United States
senator from Tennessee. A strong ex-
ecutive committee was named and plans
perfected by which it is expected the
allotment will be easily secured. In
short order.
Sewanee belongs to the Episcopal
church in 10 Southern states, and this
campaign is being conducted through
out that territory. Reports of the most
encouraging character have been re-
ceived, indicating that there is no doubt
of the successful outcome of the move
ment. At present one-third of the mil
lion sought is in hand in ash and
pledges, n with the preliminary work
that has been done the remaining two
thirds will be secured more easily than
the first third.
