H. L DOHERTY PLEDGES AID TO UNIVERSITY
Will Ask Wealthy Friends To Contribute Funds
WANTS LOCAL HELP
600 Attend Banquet Given I^ast Tuesday at Biltmore Club
Henry L. Doherty, utilities magnate of New York and Coral Gables, speaking at a testimonial banquet held in his honor at the Biltmore Country Club, promised to stir up wealthy friends to aid the university.
A tremendous ovation was given Mr. and Mrs. Doherty by nearly 600 persons who attended the banquet.
In pledging his assistance to the University, the business leader and philanthropist pointed out the need of local residents doing their part.
“I believe in the University of Miami and I hope everybody does,” he said. “What other people think of your community may be measured by it. I am going to stir up others to help the University—but it will be difficult to ask a man on the outside to help unless the man on the inside will also help.”
Mr. Doherty is in Miami considering plans to advertise southern Florida throughout the north. He is owner of the Miami Biltmore hotel and recognized as one of the leaders in America in gas and electric arts and industries.
