A campaign to help the James S. Ficklen Memorial Stadium Fund was begun last Wednesday as a joint enterprise of the Liggett and Meyers Tobacco company and the SGA.
Liggett and Myers is providing receptacles on campus, in the dorms, the soda shop, the cafeterias, in the CU Lounge, and in the downtown business areas for empty packs of cigarettes made by their company. They will pay one cent per pack for all packs collected.
Proceeds from this project will be donated to the Stadium Fund. Students may get parents and friends to help them save empty L & M packs. The empty packs may be mailed to the college in care of the SGA, Box 1120.
Burke Stancil, president of the Sophomore class, and other officers of the Sophomore class are in charge of handling the project.
