Senator Fred R. Harris is writing to Mr. Phillip Sanchez to urge the approval of a request for $55,000 to fund the Pine Ridge and Rosebud college Centers in South Dakota. The Bureau of Indian Affairs approved $45,000, but this does not meet the full financial needs of the project. Harris emphasizes the importance of providing higher educational opportunities to Native Americans and asks for Sanchez's support in funding the project.
