Research Project

Greensboro, N. C.-A&T Col
lege as been awarded a grant of
$39,075, by the National Institu-
tes of Health, Washington, D.
C., with which to continue a
research project in home econo-
clics, underway here.
The new award, announced
this week by DIR. Samuel D.
Proctor, president of the College,
increases the total grant to more
than 100000, earmarked for
support of a research project
conducted under the supervision
Of DR.. Cecile H. Edwards, pro-
fessor of nutrition and research
and her husband, DR.. Gerald A.
Edwards, co-investigator on the
study and chairman of the De-
artment of Chemistry.
The study entitled, "Utiliza-
tion of Methlonine by the Adult
Rat". has been in progress for
five years, and involves an in
vescigation of the utilization of
cne If the essential amino acids
in protein. 1t is anticipated that
Information being gainel from
the work will open new ap-
oro%ches to the study of the
metabolic use of amino acids in
proteins from foods such as
meat, eggs and milk, and offer
better understanding of their
Importance in the diet.
Other persons associated with
the Edwards in the project are:
Miss Evelyn L. Gadsden, re-
search assistant and two stu
dents, Myrna Spencer, Tarboro
and Mrs. Annie Station, Halifax.

this report include: programs to
meet educational problems in
herent in school desegregation;
equal access to public libraries
in the South, particularly those
receiving Federal aid under the
Library Services Act of 1856;
the role of the Executive Branch
in school desegregation; and de-
velopments in higher education
since the Commissions report
in January 1861.
The Commission found that
projects initiated by school dis
tricts to help minority group
children overcome economic and
social disadvantages have result
ed in marked improvement in
their scholastic achievement. 1t
recommended Federal assistance
to States for programs design
ed to identify and assist teach
ers and students of native tai
ent who are handicapped by un-
equal educational opportunity.
(Rec. 10)
A total of II recommenda-
tions are made, 5 of which re-
affirm recommendations made
in the 1859 and Higher Educa-
tion Reports, in some cases with
slight changes in wording.
All recommendations were un-
animous except the proposal to
curtail Federal aid to non-com-
plying states in the same pro-
portion as the number of pu-
pills in desegregated schools
bears to the total number of
pupils enrolled in all biracial
school districts in the State. To
this Commissioner Robert S.
Rankin dissented, saying, "its
purpose is similar to that of
the Powell Amendment and its
ret effect might be punitive. !
dc not believe that school chill
dren should be made to suffer
for the errors of their elders" !"

Robert G. Storey, Vice Chair

Cases at the beginning Of the
following school year. A similar
proposal is included in a bill
submitted by Senator Clark and
Representative Celler earlier
this year. Like the Clark -Celler
bill, it would authorize the At
torney General to seek enforce
ment in the Federal Courts.
The Commission based it's
recommendations upon findings
that only ICE of Negro children
in IL southern states attended
desegregated schools in 1960-61,
more than 1000 school districts
had not even started to comply.
Further, the trend toward de-
segregation was found to be
continuing through court ord
ers rather than voluntary ac-
tion; three States alabama,
Mississippi, and South Caro-
lina) continued to operate COM
pletely segregated school sys-
TENS; and even in some districts
of other states, where a start
has been made, actual desegre-
CATION is minimal.
In other recommendations the
Commission urged:
Congress to curtail partially
education funds to States with
Jackson advocate., 1961-09-30

desegregated colleges and uni
versities (Rec. III.
The Commissions higher edu-
cation recommendation was a
reaffirmation of a proposal
made in it's January Report on
Equal Protection of the Laws
in Public Higher Education,
1860" This time, however, four
Commissioners indicated that
ney would extend the reach of
ne recommendation to private
IS well as public institutions re-
ewing Federal funds.
In addition to a detailed fac
tual study of desegregation and
legislative resistance in the
South in the rast two years and
the threat to public education
posed by school closing laws,
repeal of compulsory school at
tendance laws and tuition grants
to attend private schools, the
report deals with school segre-
cation in the North and West.
The Commission points out
that in the North and West seq
regation in the schools has not
nad explicit legal sanction so
that in this part Of the coun-
try the State action to invoke
the protection of the 14th A
mendment is not as clearly pres
ent as in the Southern States
where segregation was imposed
by State law. The Commission
reports that "Public schools en-
rolling Negroes almost exclu-
sively in some cases, and whites
almost exclusively in others, are
found in many cities through
out the North and West" Illegal
segregation by gerrymander of
attendance zones, manipulation
of transfer policies, and site Sc
lection to produce or perpetuate
segregation are discussed. AS
q result of its study the Com
mission found that denial of
equal protection in publ C
schools on the ground of race IS
national, not regional prob
iem."
Other subjects dealt with in

Room AT The Top

You're not satisfied with the progress you max
ing? You don't think you getting anywhere? In
short, you just plain discontented?
Then think of this. There is always at the
top There is nothing this country-and the world for
that matter-needs than leaders. 1t is the
commodity always in short supply.
But there some copy book maxms you should
remember if you feel you would like to try for such
job.
"He that climbs ladder must begin at the first
round. If you are going to be leader you have to
for it by taking of your precious leisure
time to learn your job Then you have to work at it
harder than the ahead of you because you want
to catch up with him. You can't just be leader
night.
'The shortest way to do many things is to do one
thing at time Can you concentrate what you have
to do? Can you finish what you begin, when you
don't want to? The ability to persevere in spite of odds
is of the most needed qualities in leader
who is right" Can you divorce yourself from person
ates? leader must be able to do just that He must
think of the end he has in mind and not be swayed
by either praise criticism.
"The lighthouse is not placed in the middle of the
channel, but on the dangerous reef" The leader is
lonely SOUL His place must be in the front-ahead of
those he leads. Not for him the idle hour the
idle word He has to be the job all the time And he
must always forge ahead.
"Only the game fish swms upstream" It is easy
to go with the current But that is what the of
people do. leader must fight through odds and face
the difficulties. Leadership is responsibility.
But-eaders are wanted. If you have courage if
you have perseverance, if you have belief and if you
have perseverance-the way to the top is open How
