FinalTabulation ;Of United Fund '\CampaignTold The final tabulation of contributions to the 1958-59 ,United Fund Camp aign shows that 84 percent or $28,214.82 was collected. The announcement was made 'bi Jack O'Brien, president, at the Board of Directors meeting held last, Monday, January 12. In winding up the campaign op- . eration, O'Brien praised the efforts of Ev, Long, campaign manager, Capt. C.K. Phillips, treasurer, and all those who have contributed to the success of the drive. Long pointed out that a new mark of success had been reached showing 91 percent of all the con- tributions or $25,726 to· have been submitted in cash leaving only a total of $2,488 in pledges. At NOTS, 81 percent of all employed person- nel, military'and civilian, partici- pated. Figures showing Ridgecrest participation are not available at this time. This campaign marked anew high in total campaign figures for : the Indian Wells Valley area. It " also marked a new record by set- 'ting a new low for national cam- paign expenses. Costs of the IWV United Fund drive· were only $392 which is 1.4 percent of the total 'campaign. National- figures are from 300 to -400 percent higher, Long said. _ Captain' Phillips announced that an immediate payment will be made C'.l;o . the participating agencies from the cash contributions. This is des- ignated as follows: Salvation Army, $1650; Rand Cemetery, $255; Boy Scouts, $4,800; Girl Scouts, $4,100; ;- Desert Area,Family Service, $6,450; IWV Recreation· Council, $2,170; Red Cross, $4,750; USO, ,$355; and Desert Area Emergency Relief, $800. When the pledges are paid up,- the United Fund will issue the balance of designated monies to the agen- cies, Capt. Phillips said. The Board 'of Directors strongly acclaimed the significant contribu- tion of $800 which resulted from the Navy-l\'larine football game staged on behalf of the United Fund. It was suggested that the event be repeated annually as a United Fund benefit.

At the last meeting of the Employee -Management Council, Management stated that no con- firmation of this rumor has been received, and at this time it is less likely to be true. It is possible that we may be do- ing some work for NASA, but it would be through Navy and the Bureau of Ordnance rather than a total transfer.
