BE CLAD IN IT
We have today just
stepped aboard the rett-
Hlessly bobbing ship of
time for another year's
Ijourney into tomorrow.
WJj»t will it be lik«,'
where will it take us,
what will it bring, hap-
piness or aorrow. The
answer to these ques-
tions defends awe-
somely on each indivi-
dual.
Everyone has his high
calling of God. It is
life's eternal fulfill-
ment-its finest highest
realisation. To achieve

must be made and kep
First, we must

past-our sins, and «
sorrows to the ohlite
ating grace of God.
We must not only

Throughout the Bible
God equates the fruit
age of yesterday with
brighter promises to-
morrow. Paul wrote, I
have fought. A goodf
fight, 1 have finished
1 have kept the faith
(2 tim 4:7).'
Joshua 3:5 reflects the
same pull of the future
"consecrate yourselves
for tomorrow the Lord
will do wonders among
you.
Have a beautiful ar.d
Happy New Year. Il'sl

BLACK COLLEGFS
AIDED BY LOANS
FROM INSURANCE
INDUSTRY
Seven years ago loans
from the Equitable Life
Assurance Society of
the United States ar.d
eight other life ard
health insurance coii-
panies helped launch
a pioneering progran
that, it was hopei,
would produce a new
source of endowment
funding for America's
historically black col-
leges. Six historically
black colleges, all men-
bers of the United Ne-
gro College Fund, were
the first participants.
The Equitable was a
"lead lender" at the
time, committing 13
million to the nascent
program.
Today, 37 private ard
public colleges and uri-
versities participate
in this program. Hie
College Endowment
Funding Plan looks
forward to increasing
their combined endow-
ments by $124 million
within twenty-five
years. They will also
accumulate annual
operating funds of
$46 million during
the same period.
A total of 32 insurance
companies have made
low-interest loans to
CEFP. The Equitable
continues to take da
lead as prime lender.
Having loaned $4 mil-
lion over the last six
years, the com par)
has just renewed its
commitment with a
pledge of an additional
S2.25 million, which
it will make available
over three years.
Nine groups of col-
leges have already betn
invested in the College
Endowment F undii ig
Plan. The tenth grotp
is expected to form in
January.
CEFP was created ly
Dr. Frederick D. Patter-
son, the 84-year-olu
founder of the United
Negro College Fund.
"Mack colleges don't
have wealthy alunni
to give them endow-
ments in the form of
gifts or legacies,"
explained Dr. Patter-
son. So, I tried to fird
some other way for
these schools to build
endowments that coula
help ensure their future.
"I am gratified th.it
so many insurance cor l-
panies regard a loan to
CEFP as a worthwhile
investment in higher
education. I am partic i-
larly grateful to The
Equitable for its fore-
sight and leadership in
this program," Dr. Pat-*

terson concluded.
"We believe in the
philosophy behind the
College Endowment
Funding Plan and are
happy to extend our
commitment. Dr. Pat-
terson has created a
viable method where-
by we can help edu-
cate our minority
youth and stimulate
leadership," commen-
ted John B. Carter,
president of The Eqii-
table.
The 43 private, his-
torically black colleg es
that belong to the Uri-
ted Negro College Fur-d
have an average endow-
ment of S4.4 millit n
each. The average ei-
dowment at private col-
leges nationally is S14.8
million.
CEFP is fund< d
through the luited Ne-
gro Colege Fund and is
administered joinUy
by LNCF and the R>
uert R. Moton Memorial
Institute.
