NSSFNS DEDICATED TO
TALENT SEARCHING
The Hidden Ones

During his first year at
Phillips Exeter A C a d e m Y,
there were times when Ma
thaniel Lamar of Atlanta,
Ca, thought he would never
make it. The son of a wild
owed schoolteacher, he had
gone to a Negro elementary
school that left him UMPIRE
pared for the stiff competi-
ton at Exeter. Had it not
been for an organization call
ed the National Scholarship
Service and Fund for Negro
Students, he would never have
bothered to apply for Exeter
at all. But young Lamar
gradually found his bearings.
Eventually he u was elected
senior class poet at Exeter,
y graduated summa cum
laude from Harvard, 81 won
a fellowship to Cambridge
University, d. published short
stories in the Atlantic Month
ly, and is now on the way to
finishing a novel.
In 1913 when NSSFNS
pronounced "NessfenessO
began ferreting out hidden
talents such as LaMar's, Ne
groes accounted for only one
tenth of Ia of the students
in interracial colleges. To
three prominent New Workers
Dean Harry Carman of
Columbia College, Mrs. Fee
lice Schwartz, and Pastor
James H. Robinson of the
Church of the Master-this
seemed not only an injustice
but a waste of brainpower.
Though too many boys and
girls of all races were miss
ing their chance for a full
education because of power
ty or bad training, the largest
group affected was the Ne
groes. Deciding to go to the
rescue, Dean Carman & Co.
hired Richard Plaut, a per-
sonnet expert, to be Nessfen-
ess' executive vice chairman.
Nessfeness's chief tasks
have been not only to find
hidden talent but to interest
promising students in higher
education. Now supported
largely by College Campus
Chests all over the country,
the service talks to hundreds
of students and parents a
