Enthusiastic support of the proposed Methodist College and the county-*ride campaign for pledges in the amount of $2million to assure its location in the Fayetteville area vas voiced today by principals of some of ths leading schools in the Cumberland County system. School leaders, unanimously, see in this development a great boos to education among children of the county, who, now, or in the future, arrive at that stage where they decide to pursue their education beyond the high school level. Some of the expressions received earlier this week by Dr. R. L. Pittman, general chsiroan of the College Steering Committee, end other campaign officials, follow: E. M. .Honocutt, principal, Central High Schools "The locating of a college in Fayetteville should be good news to every citizen in Cumberland County. We should all be proud tc support the Hethotitst Cell* o - Carrot ir,n tc -'rice two million dollar. "A college in Ftycitcvlllr would do mch to raise our educational standards. T!sa^ c- '-'-£" beys cuid girls ir. th~- ;public school are a3£&a&y beginning to talk colley*. and tl;inI;i;T; In terns of reproving their y\rk in school. "We can not afford to let our children de.-n, '-vc oust all do our part to bring the College to ;v--;ttcville." B. M. licrnca, principal,. Gray's Creek. Schools "The proposed rfethodist College is indc-ec a greet opportunity for boys, girls, raea, and weracn of the Fayetteville iiica. A college GO'near irould increase college ettendance of c'.i- high school students. It would minimize cxpenr^s for 1' -•••? and girls -who cannot afford to go sstty to college. It would be a challenge for many who would not otherwise realize the advtiti.tE.ges of "lij^icr education. Most of all, it would stimulate Christian growth for all the citizens of this area.w E. R. Perry, principal, Hope !*ills School* "It seems to rae that the Ilcthodist College is about the finest thing that could happen to the Fayetteville vicinity. In addition to the opportunity vrhich it will afford the high school graduates of this area there will undoubtedly come a great cultural stimulus to the entire community. There is no wsy to estimate the value of this college in dollars and cents to the Cumberland County section cf Tforth Carolina." V. C. r!ason, principal, T-assey Kill High School: "The I-fessey Hill people are very much elated over a college coming to Fayetteville. It would be impossible to say in a few words just what it would mean to our section of the county. We are glad and proud to know this good news. "A college will mean s. great deal to our high school graduates. In our section we have rz»r$r boys and girls tiho would_like to continue their education. In many cases financial difficulties sre barriers and some of our boj'S and girls cannot go for tMc r^trsr.n* Sons of our boy^ •..--. gii U t-c-on cntcr!:;r liigh school know they will n?VT h'i\"? a chance to go to college-. Therefore, they do not plan their high t^V--'l course with college in ~nind.

It will aiean the difference in either cci-^Q to college cr not going In TK-ry esses* At present we rely on schclr.r«hips to ?. ;-rof.t e:-^cnt for- ;isy of our graajiates. One father in our community pledged $100.C in tho first campaign — after Isarni:.; ''-hat the college will come here for sure he has pledged $500.00. This man has five children and he hopes every one of his children will go to college. Think what a saving this will be in this one case. There are many more cases like this one in our community, I am sure. n Then, too, just think what a college thrill mean to our section of the state. It will give us prestige that we would not otherwise get in any other way. It will add an atmosphere to our county and city thnt will be elevating. It will bring talent to our cc-finuiJty and county that ve would not have in ixs;* other way. Also, it should unite the thinking and giving on the part of our people as nothing else would do. " You can depend on the citizens to J-!asscy Hill to support this college drive." Lloyd E. Auaan, principal, Seventy-First Schools 1!I have been disappointed for many years because of the low percentage of beys and girls fron this area that attend college. I feel tli&t less than half of the boys tad girls frm this area who are capei ".c of .doinjj college work attend collr-ga. They fail to go for two reasons. The first reason being that they are not financially able to go, and second, due to the lack of encouragement fron their parents they are not conscious of the values of a higher education. If ve hc.d n. college here f.t would elininc.te both of the above reasons. A collcys In tills srea would do much to inprove our secondary schools by having a larger percentage of the students in the secondary school thinking about college before they ever finish High School. If they know they are going on to college they do nuch better work in High School. Finishing High School is the final goal in education for too raany of our boys and girls who are capable of a higher education." £•_,?!•_ Johnson, Principal, Stfc«_::i School: "May I express to you and your co-^workers r^ appreciation and pledge ay co-operation, in the wonde. :."ul prcj t of getting e collage in the Feyetteville ar<*a.

THE COLLEGE IN THE CHURCH It is for me a great pleasure to come here to Hay Street Church to speak to you today. Most of you do not know it, but I entered the North Carolina Conference through the Quarterly Conference of this church. For a brief time, my name was listed on its membership rolls, and the names of many of you are associated in my memory with much gratitude and feelings of appreciation. I shall always have a sense of indebtedness to this church for the many generous acts toward me during the time I had an office here when I was serving as Soldier Pastor for the Methodist Churches of the area during 1942. I have not come here as a man of the world today to put on airs, to boast of what the Methodist Church has done or is going to do. It is preparing a program for the support of its colleges, and especially the work involved here in Fayetteville and North Carolina Wesleyan at Rocky Mount which will include every Methodist in the Conference in its scope. We expect that every Methodist will be told the story of our college program and anticipate that everyone will find a great sense of pioneering accomplishment by participating in its achievements. But I say I have not come here today to talk to you about the program just ahead of us, but I have come rather to rejoice with you in the power of a mighty God whom we worship in this hour and Who, we believe, is working a might work through the communities of Fayetteville and Rocky Mount and North Carolina Methodist in bringing into being these new colleges. Rather than coming to instruct you, I have come to be rather myself instructed, for the depth and breadth of your vision and energy has come out of your enthusiasm has transformed the scene of Eastern Carolina from a place where two years ago, a call to build one college would have gone unheeded, to an area where today "80,000 Methodist are firmly joined with two cities in the creation and development of two colleges." Let me say here and now that the North Carolina Conference is awake to the magnitude of this task and is fully committed to bearing its full share of the load of establishing and maintaining these schools. I want to talk to you for a moments about why I think the Church is committed to this additional responsibility beyond her tremendous obligations in evangelism, missions, in education within the local church, and in her program of stewardship. So great has the need of the Church been for new building and for new churches, that church architecture and church building contracts have become big business across the country. Why in the midst of these strenuous efforts does the church so confidently commit herself to two more colleges whose ultimate cost will turn into the millions of dollars and will call for Methodist giving beyond what we have ever done before? To find the answer, it is necessary to look into the life and history of the church. Perhaps it was in the month of September, the traditional month for the beginning of school in our time, that the parents of a young lad took him down to the harbor town of Aulai, the port of the city of Tarsus. They were sending him off to school. He wasn't going to college to leam the skills of an engineer and thereby get into a higher income bracket - he was already trained to make a living. Actually, he later was to boast that he supported himself from tent making, and we cannot say that his schooling made his hands any faster or more accurate. But when young Saul sailed from Asia Minor down to Joppa in Palestine and made his way through the hills to Jerusalem, he went for training in the ways of manhood beyond that which the art of tent-making could ever supply. He went to sit at the feet of the learned rabbis, the teachers of the wisdom of his fathers. He went that there might be supplied in his life that quality of ming and spirit which could be learned only in the disciples of the "college classroom of that day." As he sat at the feet of the great teacher Gamaliel his bright mind carried him beyond many who were older than he into the wisdom of the Pharisees. The issues of his faith were drawn clearly for him and when his spirit was captured by Christ he was ready to become the great collective mind of the early church. If Saul of Tarsus had never gone to college and subjected his mind and spirit to the discipline of its training, he would never have been prepared to take his place as the giant that he is among the geniuses of the world. And further, the church would have been stumbling yet in its understanding of the vastness of what God has done for us in Christ. God used the simple shepherds to declare the wonders of the new-bom King at Bethlehem, but He took the trained mind and disciplined spirit of a Saint Paul to declare the meaning of our Lord's crucifixion and the glory of his resurrection. Through more than half the pages of the New Testament, he speaks to us of God reaching toward us in Christ reconciling the world to himself. The simple skills of a tent-maker might have made Saul of Tarsus a wealthy man, and a man of great influence in that city of his birth which had almost a million inhabitants. But that training alone would never have prepared him to be the Saint Paul of all the ages. And the Church will not forget its debt to the gentle rabbi and great teacher, Gamaliel, who prepared the great mind of Paul to become so marvelous a channel for the gospel of Christ. It is a fitting tribute that there should be recorded in the book of Acts an incident that shows the patience and tolerance of the kindly rabbi. We remember Martin Luther, the great leader of the Reformation as a monk, and so he was as a member of the Augustinian Order. Sometimes, we forget that he studied law. Perhaps many are not even aware that he was a college professor and came to his great insights that sparked the Reformation and changed the history of Europe and the world, while preparing a series of lectures on the book of Psalms to be given in a college classroom. The life of the Church was freed into new and creative patterns by the professor of Wittenburg. Let us not overlook the fact that the school was new, having been founded only a short time before Luther went there to teach and to be the pastor of the local church. The newness of the college provided no barrier to its being the cradle of a tremendous blessing to the Christian Church. Here let me caution you who live here in Fayetteville to remember that the greatest hours of Methodist College can well be lived in its earliest days. The value of a school does not begin when the ivy grows to the top of its building. As Methodists, we are constantly going back to John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist movement. It was no accident that the beginnings of Methodism are found in a college. The Holy Club of Oxford University was not a collection of pious students removed from life but a dedicated group of young churchmen with a passion to make the gospel effective in all of life. We should not forget the work of these college students with those in jail, with the poor and the outcast. Nor should we forget their observance of all the practices which had supposedly been a part of the life of the church but had fallen into neglect. Habitual and adequate time for prayer was included in the program of the Holy Club. I remember my surprise when I read in the Encyclopedia Britannica that John Wesley and his group had almost single handedly restored the observance of Lent to the evangelical church. The Oxford don who had loved the college atmosphere and declared he would have enjoyed remaining as a part of the university community all his life showed that his practices of his early days there were still a part of him by receiving in the last year of his life the Holy Communion over 100 times. If we should leave out of the life of Wesley the influence of his college experiences as a student and a teacher we should never understand the Wesleyan revival. And if we should remove from the life of the Methodist Church the contributions of her colleges we would destroy her. The development of the church in America cannot be described without telling the story of her colleges. To the picture of the circuit rider, the group of settlers and the brush arbor, there must always be added the picture of a college. One of the first things done by the Methodists when they were first organized in America was to make plans for the founding of a college. Benjamin Franklin spoke of the first time he heard the remarkable preacher Whitfield and commented that he was speaking in behalf of one of the Methodist colleges. The Methodist Church is concerned with colleges for the training of her pastors, her missionaries, her future lay leadership, yes, but far more than that motivates the North Carolina Conference in her commitment to the cities of Fayetteville and Rocky Mount. She accepts these schools now as a very part of her life. She conceives of them as serving a mighty function in the development of the finest and best in their respective communities and in Eastern North Carolina, but beyond that she considers them to be now bone of her bone, and flesh of her flesh, whereby the blessings of God may be mediated to His people. In answer to a question put to him about the work of his college, the president of one Methodist School said, "We think of ourselves as being the Church at work with young people." The Methodist Church has not been narrow and sectarian in 5 its approach to education but has looked upon its work in its colleges as a part of its determination to see to it that young people had a full opportunity to develop to their highest potential. In her new schools she now renews that determination for the youth of Eastern North Carolina. [The Methodist Colleges are not outside the life of the Church. Rather they are close to its main steam. The Church has thrown a tremendous burden of responsibility on its schools. It has looked to them to interpret is doctrines, stimulate its zeal on the new frontiers of the Faith, and to provide it with leadership. Bishop Peele, who preceded our present Bishop Garber was a teacher in a Methodist school before he became a pastor, and Bishop Garber game to his office directly from the college classroom. But now in its turn the Church is accepting the responsibility, and accepting it gladly, of giving its very best to the development of this new frontier in Christian Higher Education. The Methodist Church has accepted the magnificent campus site and the commitment of present and future financial support from the community. She in turn has committed herself [penciled in: The Church has committed] "to develop in Methodist College an institution of which both the Church, Fayetteville, and North Carolina will be justly proud." This commitment is born of her knowledge is an important, necessary, and vital part of her very life.
