United Fund Trails By Thirteen Percent In Adams County
Adams County United Way fundraising nears close with receipts about 13 percent short of the $156 000 goal. Campaign chairman D A Gus Stevens cites weak urban and rural solicitations and several businesses late with pledges as factors. Sixteen agencies including the Red Cross Salvation Army and Catholic Social Services would face reduced allocations if the goal isn’t met. Stevens urges remaining supporters to donate before month end.
