Industry and government had loaned a total of 73 executives to the United Good Neighbors campaign who had been working since mid-August. The drive to collect funds for the UGN officially began on September 14th. The group's goal was to collect $1,928,000 in the campaign which was to end on November 12th, a bare two months away. The United Good Neighbors was a predecessor of United Way. Photograph ordered by the United Good Neighbor Fund of Pierce County. (TNT 11-12-71, p. 1 -article; )
