DR.. Fountain Restored
AS Morris Brown
Head With No F attn

Memphis, Tenn.-(ANP)
Temporary peace is reign
ing in the Morris Brown col
lege situation as the Bishops
council in a call meeting
last week refused to act on a
request to transfer Bishops
R. R. Wright from the 9th
|sEpiscopal district, and trus-
tees of the college voted DR..
WA. Fountain back as pres
ident with mo faith" in him.
AS a result of this meeting
which could have spelled a
great upheaval in the Afri-
can Methodist Episcopal
church the following re!at-
ionships exist:
Bishop Wright will re-
main as prelate of the sixth
district, ruled by Bishop W.
A. Fountain, the presidents
father, for 20 years before
Bishop Wright took over two
years ago.
The council delayed &C
ton on a request to transfer
him from the district until
charges against him could
be taken up by a regular
meeting of the bishops coun-
Gil.
DR.. Fountain is back as
president of Morris Brown
but with certain tensions
still existing. He has the full
support of the bishops, 13 of
whom were present at Mem
phis meeting.
On the other side, the
board of trustees voted u
unanimously to restore him to
office but Having no faith
in DR.. Fountain" The board
said it acted as it did to save
Bishop Wright from possibly
being moved out of Georgia.
1t said it acted in compli-
ance with the July 5 direc-
tive of the council to restore
DR.. Fountain. Further, it
criticized the council, call
ing its action "outside inter-
ference" with the affairs of
the college.
