The famous Ring ling mansion was donated to the college to serve as the core of the campus. The dhurch group will appropriate the fundi to complete the buildings and then turn the college over to a private or public administration. Cfwch Strives To Close College Gap And Meet Demands For Space By HAROLD SHEEHAN NEW YORK (NEAI The only thing that a lot of people give to the college o( their clioice is a son. or daughter. . Such a contribu tion. in the absence of healthy money donations will do little to lease the multiplying demand for -college space. President Kennedy foresees a need for twice as many class rooms by 1972 as we have now. And it seems likely that the federal government will play an increasingly active role in provid ing funds for buildings on the Meditation Walks and Professors' Rows across the nation. At least one church group, how. ever, believes private initiative still can weld together the stuff of which higher education is made. This denomination, The United Church of Christ, is mov ing on several fronts around the country, gathering the millions needed to build schools, select ing campus sites and choosing top people in the local commum. ties to run the schools when they open their doors. From the coffers of its Board Brethren Pastor Accepts Post At Maryland Church A call to serve the Dundalk Church of the Brethren in Balti more, Md., has been accepted by Rev. Carl Simmons Jr., pastor of the: local Church of the Brethren. He will close his work here on June 9 and assume the Dundalk pastorate on July 1. Rev. and Mrs. Simmons and Glenn, Wendell, Virginia, and Lyn ettc came to Klamath Falls in August of 1961 from Albany, but they had been associated with the church prior to that time. For a year before the family's permanent residence. Rev, Sim mons had commuted to the con. gregaluxi approximately three weekends out of five to serve the church on a part-time basis. Dur ing the week he was employed by the Oregon Metallurgical Cor poration in Albany. Active in community affairs, he has served on the Crime Proven. tion Committee and was vice president of the Klamath Council of Churches for the 1962-63 term. While living here he was also chairman of the Oregon District Board, Church of the Brethren: secretary of the Paci.'ic Northwest Conference Board of his church: and served as a trustee to the LaVerne College, LaVerne, Calif. Mrs. Eva Simmons, a graduate of LaVerne College who studied year at tho Bethany Biblical Seminary in Chicago, has taught remedial reading at Riverside School and played violin in the string ensemble which was the forerunner of the new Klamath Community Symphony. Following her marriages in 1949. she also taught school in California and Illi nois and substituted In Washing ton and various Oregon cities. Both outdoor enthusiasts. Rev. and Mrs. Simmons have worked together as directors of their de nomination's family camp at Camp Myrllewood, near Bridge. Ore., In the Coos Bay area, for the past two years. rm I . y I mi t$m ill tOTiW1 ,.fS';""! LtJ REV. CARL SIMMONS JR. Rev. Simmons received h i s bachelor's degree at Bridgewater College in Virginia after serving with the U.S. Army in World War II, and later earned a bachelor of divinity degree from the Bethany Biblical Seminary. Before accepting the Klamath Falls position, he served as pas tor of (lie Albany Church of the Brethren and had previously held pastorales in Yakima. Sacra mento, and St. John, Kan. of Homeland Ministries the church plows about $1.5 million annually into this program. Soon to be opened is New College, Sarasota and Bradenton. Fla. The board is also eyeing sites In Arizona and Hawaii for other colleges. Quarterback for this effort is 45 year-old Rev. Howard Spragg, one-time varsity football player for Tufts University in Massachu setts. Largely through Dr. Spragg's dogged determination. some $6 million has been raised toward completion of New Col lege. Some buildings are already built on the former Ringling (of circus famel estate donated to the col lege. Most of the funds are raised locally. The school is nunsegre-gated. "One thing I want to make Icar," said Dr. Spragg, "is that the United Church policy is to get tile colleges going and then pull out. On the board of trustees of New College wc have people of many religions not just Congre- gationalist and Evangelical and Reformed the two denominations which make up the United Church." Dr. Spragg's own Congregation- alist Church has a long record of school founding, dating back to Harvard and Yale. Other schools which tlte church established and then traditionally turned over to private direction include Darts- mouth (storied as an Indian mis sionary school i, Gl inncI, Howard Fisk, Oberlin. Smith, and Vi. Hams. In addition, the church has set up more than 500 elementary schools mostly in the South which, likewise, were later turned over to private or public adminis tration. 'Why do we cut the strings aft er a school get rolling?" Dr. Spragg answered his own question: "I suppose It goes back to the spirit of the Protestant Reforma tion. We don't believe in insist ing that everyone believe in what we believe in. "If you don't trust yourself to have a corner on tlte truth, then why did we have the Reforma tion in tine first place? In fact," said Dr. Spragg, "I don't think it would hurt to have an atheist on the board of New College just to keep the religious Imivs on tlieir toes."
