NATIONAL FRATERNITY LAUNCHES
DRIVE TO AID ALL-BLACK
MISSISSIPPI TOWN
Fayette, Miss. ? A national
college fraternity last week
launched a campaign aimed at
easing the financial problems
facing this small town headed
by a black mayor and an all
black city council.
The Omega Psi Phi Fratern
ity, with national headquarters
at Washington, D. C., and which
has more than 300 local chap
ters with nearly 20,000 mem
bers in principal cities across
the nation, is supporting the
effort.
Ellis F. Corbett, associate di
rector of Planning and Develop
ment at A&T State University,
Greensboro, N. C., and national
president of the Fraternity,
came here on Saturday to pre
sent a check for $500 to the
City of Fayette. Receiving the
check for Fayette was Negro
Mayor Charles Evers. "
When Evers, brother of slain
rights leader Medgar Evers, was
elected mayor of Fayette lsat
July, he found the small com
munity had municipal debts to
taling more than $8,000.
The city badly needs money
to help pay its public service
employees and to provide the
basic community facilities.
Shortly after taking office last
July, Mayor Evers and his five
man, all-black City Council,
announced a nation-wide appeal
for funds.
In making his presentation,
Corbett told Evers tile Omegas,
whose membership totals more
than 20,000, consider their git
a challenge to inspire other In
dividuals and organizations to
give.
"The Omegas," he said, "hope
to conduct a nation-wide cam
paign among their membership
to raise funds needed by Fay
ette for operations during the
balance of the calendar year.'*
The effort is to be conducted
by the fraternity's Social Action
Committee, headed by Samuel
I C. Coleman of Newburgh, N. Y.
