Women was founded December 4
1885 by a group of 38 outstandinl
women called together by Mrs.
Bethune. The women discussed tn
necessity of an organization or or
CARNATIONS who would be empowI
cred to express the hopes, aspirs
tons and desires of Negro woman
hood and who would identify them
selves national and internationally
thus, moving on a scale hilbert
unknown.
Local councils were later organ
lied for the purpose of providinl
at the local community level tn
same kind of coordinating bodie0
and to offer an opportunity fo.
participation to interested individ
uals, with or without other Oh
CARNATIONS affiliations. Local cours
ellis were organized to implement

vile. This achievement was made
possible by the efforts of the origi.
nal Jubilee Singers, students Of
the University who were trained
and directed by Professor George
L. White. The Singers travelled
during the years from 1871 to 1878
in the northern and eastern parts
of the United States and in Europe
earning money for the college
through their recitals. 1t was those
Singers who created the Fisk Ira
dition in art and music, and it was
they who introduced to the world
the Spiritual as an American con-
tribution to musical art.
In 1875, the Reverend E. M. Cra-
vath became the first president of
Fisk University with Adam X.
Spence as his executive assistant.
DR.. Cravath and his associates laid
great emphasis on ideals and high
standards, and under their admin
istration, lasting twenty-five years,
the character of the University was
formed. President Cravath's sue
cessors were James Merrill 1901
1909, George Augustus Gates
(1909-1912), Fayette Avery Nc
Kenzie 1915-1925), and Thomas
Elsa Jones (1926-1946). Under
President Jones the college raised
its academic standards measurably,
increased its facilities greatly
through the erection of the Uni
versity Library and the Chemistry
building, and made substantial
strides in raising an endowment
fund. Charles Spurgeon Johnson
became the sixth President of the
University in the summer of 1947.
DR.. Johnson had been actively as
ISOLATED with Fisk since 1928, as
Director of the Department of So
cial Sciences. Through his many
scholarly activities including the
volume of significant research pro-
secuted under his direction, he had
earned for that Department a ma
tion-wide reputation.
Founded primarily for the pur-
pose of providing for the colored
people of the South the advantages
of a Christian education, Fisk has
attracted, during every period OF
its history, students from all Sec
tions of the nation and from many
foreign countries. Although the
original charter of incorporation
specified "The education and train
ing of young men and women ire
spective of color, "subsequent state
legislation made it mandatory fol
the institution to limit it's student
body to members of the Negro race
With the exception of the faculty
which has always been appointed
regardless of race or color, and q
limited number of special students
the spirit of the original charter
has never been fully realized. In
view of recent court decisions at
fecting higher education in the
South, Fisk, like an increasing
number of institutions in the re.

tablishment of a chapter of Phi
Beta Kappa. Recognition by these
regional and national agencies has
assured Fisk a ranking position
among foremost American colleges
and universities.
The present value of the Uni
versity Campus Property and
Equipment is approximately ST.
988,528. Gifts to the University
over a period of years have pro-
vided an endowment fund Of $5,-
831 1888. The annual income from
this fund is major factor in meet
ing University expenses, but there
is still a serious need for gifts
which will enable the University to
maintain its high standards of
teaching and provide greater OPP
portunities for it's students.

gion, now extends its educational
facilities, as originally conceived,
to students of all races, colors, and
creeds, either as exchange students
or as regularly enrolled students on
both the undergraduate and gradu-
ate levels.
Fisk came into being at a turn
ing point in American history and
from the outset the institution has
enjoyed consistent growth and de-
velopment in keeping with the
ideals basic to its founding. It has
passed, successfully, through the
stages of grade school, high school,
and normal school to those of col
lege and university. With the
achievement of regional and ma
tional generalization, the institution
discontinued all instruction in those
units below the college level. In
achieving its present rank, Fisk
was greatly assisted by other edu-
cational and philanthropic agen-
cies, in addition to substantial sup
port from the American Mission
airy Association.
Today, Fisk has a national repu-
tation as a liberal arts college of
high standing. In addition to early
recognition by the New York State
Board of Regents, it was the first
Negro institution to become fully
approved by the Southern Asso-
citation of Colleges and Secondary
schools, the Association of Ameri-
can Universities, and the Ameri-
can Association of University
Women. In the Fall of 1852, Fisk
was granted charter for the es-

Case Dead|ine

Juvenile Court Judge Orm
w. Ketcham yesterday set
october is as the deadline for
the District to transfer nom
support cases involving legiti-
mate children to some other
court.
In effect. the judge was put
ting pressure on city officials
to take the cases away from
his overloaded jurisdiction. The
Judge already has suspended
court hearings on nonsupport
matters but has permitted his
probation staff to continue to
hold hearings pending action
by the District.
Doing away with nonsupport
cases was one Of several moves
announced by the Judge recent
ly to give more time to what
he believes should have top
priority - juveniles charged
with delinquency.
One of the judges plans
calls for a 10-man intake unit
to screen juvenile cases. The
Judge noted yesterday he can
mot put this into effect until
he can disband the present
unit, which handles nonsup-
port cases. and transfers its
three social workers to the in
take unit.
Judge Ketcham had agreed
to postpone the banning Of any
more nonsupport cases until
after the District considers
what to do. No solutions fol-
lowed a meeting of District
officials last week conducted by
Commissioner David B. Kar-
rick.
Personnel Problem
The Judge has reasoned that
nonsupport cases had the best
chance Of being transferred tc
a less crowded court. The Dis.
trict Court has concurrent ju.
risdiction over criminal non
support cases with Juvenile
Court, but the United States
attorneys office has indicated
it lacks personnel to take them

complaints that some agencies
had placed maximum age limi-
tations in filling jobs.
But the law did not cover
noncompetitive actions, such
as assigning employees to jobs
through promotions, transfers
or reassignments.
And with the Government
starting its new merit promo
ton system in January, the
Commission has issued new
regulations to make sure that
a persons age doesn't bar him
or her from consideration in
getting better jobs. 1t also
tiehtens whatever loopholes
existed in regard to transfers
or reassignments.
The CSC's new regulation
reads:
"No maximum age require
ment shall be applied in either
competitive or noncompetitlve
examinations for positions in
the competitive service"
