LOCAL RESIDENT AWARDS
FUNDS TO PAINE IN HONOR
OF DECEASED SON
Mrs. Geraldine H. Bibb, a
long time resident of Augusta,
recently contributed S3OOO to
Paine College in memory of her
late son, William Daniel Haynes.
A friend of the College, Mr.
Haynes was a graduate of Lucy
Laney High School, where he
had a strong interest in athletics.
For this reason, his mother has
arranged for a SIOOO Athletic
Scholarship, named in his
honor, to be awarded next
school year to a Paine freshman.
The remaining S2OOO was
distributed in the following
manner: $300.00 allocated to
the Paine College Choir and
$1700.00 as an un-restricted
grant to the College.
After Mrs. Bibb had made her
dicision to make the
contribution, she contacted
Paine Alumni Director, John Q.
Terry to handle the transaction.
Said Mrs. Bibb, “I have decided
to give William’s money to Paine
College to be used in helping our
young people prepare for living
in our, now, very competitive
society. I feel that my son
would approve of this gesture,
realizing full well that I may
forego some comforts and
probably necessities too, but I
am willing to make this sacrifice
in memory of my beloved son,
William Daniel Haynes.”

PARTY
w
DR. BENJAMIN E. MAYS
An autograph party in honor
of Paine Trustee, Dr. Benjamin
E. Mays, will be held at the
College on Saturday, May 22.
Dr. Mays will meet friends in
room 2 of the Music Building.
Published just two months
ago, Born to Rebel tells of Dr.
May’s life long struggle to
overcome injustice and racism
and of his extraordinary career
as a churchman, author and
educator, including serving 27
years as President of
Morehouse College in Atlanta,
Georgia.
Considered a valuable
history of black-white relations
in this country over the past
seventy years, Born to Rebel
has received outstanding praise
from prominent individuals
and reviewers.
Born in South Carolina in
1895, Benjamin E. Mays
graduated with honors from
Bates College in Maine, and
received his M.A. and Ph.D.
degrees from the University of
Chicago. He served as Dean of
Religion at Howard University
for six years and was active in
religious and educational
organizations. From 1940 to
1967 he was President of
Morehouse College and upon

President Emeritus. Among his
many honors, Dr. Mays
delivered the eulogy at Martin
Luther King’s funeral; was the
United States’ Representative
at Pope John’s funeral; and was
one of five outstanding
clergymen honored by the
National Conference of
Christians and Jews. Dr. Mays
was recently elected President
of Atlanta’s Board of
Education, the first Negro to
hold that post. He is the author
of numerous books and
articles, and is an outstanding
speaker who has delivered
addresses in over 150 colleges,
universities, and schools in the
I U.S., as well as in nearly 300
I churches. Dr. Mays lives in
Atlanta.

By Dr. DuPree Jordan, Jr.
Several weeks ago now this
column referred to the report
issued the middle of January
by the Association of
American Colleges describing
the startling speed with which
the average American
independent college and
university plunged from the
black to the red side of the
accounting ledger. That
detailed report was based
upon the results of a
questionnaire sent to 733 of
the nation’s 762 private
colleges and universities, and
drew a rather dismal picture of
the present plight of these
institutions, and just as
pessimistic a view of the
projected future financial state
of independent higher
education in America.
Several who read this
column have commented that
we must have made those
statistics appear darker than
they actually were. As a
matter of fact, we did not
depict them as being nearly as
black as the report itself.
Much Is Needed
One of the college
presidents who read the entire
report said that he felt the
general attitude of the
complete study was reflected
in the conclusion that “most
colleges in the red are staying
in the red and getting redder,
while colleges in the black are
generally growing
grayer” .. . .The logical
assumption from these
circumstances is that things
can only continue to
deteriorate unless significant
aid is forthcoming, and that
rather soon.
The detailed study was

made by a Dr. William W.
Jellema, AAC Executive
Associate and Research
Director. His careful analysis
of the questionnaires
completed by colleges all over
the country indicates real
causes for grave concern. The
country’s independent
colleges, plagued by rising
costs of instruction,
construction, maintenance and
security, have plunged deeper
and deeper into debt during
the decade of growing
inflation and increased
demands for more services.
The statistics compiled in
this study indicate that the
“average” private college
finished 1968 with a surplus
of funds. Only a year later
that “average” school was
operating at a deficit, and that
deficiency multiplied five
times over during the next
twelve months. By June of
1970, the “average”
independent college and
university in every
geographical region of the
nation was “firmly in the’
red.”
Constructive Response
One of many responses to
these complicated and
alarming conditions is the
organization of state
associations of independent
colleges. Georgia is now one of
thirty three of the fifty states

which have such organizations,
providing an exchange of
information between the
campuses, as all of these
institutions try to help one
another to operate more
effectively, efficiently and
economically.
While the administrators on
these campuses have been
aware of their conditions for
some time now, and have been
wrestling earnestly with their
problems, they now have the
advantage of a growing
number of student, alumni,
friends and supporters who
recognize the seriousness of
the situation, and who are
diligently looking for ways to
help these colleges meet their
problems and pay their bills.
Georgia is typical of many
other states in that a growing
number of average citizens
have expressed real concern
about the future of high
quality higher education in
this state.

BARKING ON OLYMPIC HOPES
I - jsmL
It. / :
WHS'
Jesse Owens and Johnny Weismuller "shake up” U.S. Olym
pic Committee luncheon in Miami.
It all started when a silver
haired banker said that “of all
that is going on in the world
today, the Olympic Games
must stand out as about the
cleanest, most wholesome, and
most honest of activities
which are deserving, but lack
our all-out support.”
The speaker was Ernest J.
Young, Executive Director of
Bank of America Traveler’s
Cheques. The place was Miami.
The occasion was a luncheon
...and the purpose was to an
nounce the most unique way
ever to raise funds for the
U.S. Olympic Committee.
The current U.S. Olympic
Committee budget is $lO mil
lion, the amount required if
we are to field the caliber of
teams of which the U.S. is
capable. And the Committee’s
need for this large sum is cru
cial. For if anything less than
$lO million is raised in the
next two years, some of our
athletes might not be able to
compete in 1972.
With those awesome figures
and consequences in mind,
Young formulated a plan that
literally means that this coun
try can bank on high Olympic
hopes.
Co-hosting a luncheon with
Clifford H. Buck, president of
the U.S. Olympic Committee
and Arthur G. Lentz, the Com
mittee’s executive director ...
Lunborg announced his plan to
a group including Olympic gold
medal winners Jesse Owens and
Johnny Weismuller.
Deceptively simple, the plan
calls for increasing the ante on
an initial Bank of America
contribution of SIOO,OOO
by donating a percentage of
the commission on each Bank
of America travelers cheque
sold between April, 1971 and
September, 1972. As a result,
people who purchase these
blue-and-gold cheques will be
making their own contribution
the painless way. At no
additional cost to themselves.
A lot of people don’t know
it, but the government offers
no financial assistance to the
U.S. teams. The Committee
has to rely entirely on public
contributions for funding.
So the next time you travel,
why not take along some tra
velers cheques. For if you do
America’s “best” will travel
too!
