Gwendolyn Brooks featured in 3 local college appearances

GWENDOLYN BROOKS Self assurance is strongly indicated in the voice and posture of the poet-laureate of Illinois as she answered the questions of her interviewers at Indiana Central College. Admiting that she was a “Field Nigger,** and that her family had to struggle to survive, she is keenly aware of the divisibleness of blacks, and believes that blacks must come together in their own interest. Gwendolyn Brooks admits she writes for and about black people. Influenced by her mother, and her father, who was a writer, she began dreaming at the early age of six. She was totally enthralled as she wrote about the dandelions that she saw growing her in

back yard In the teeming city of Chicago, that she would become a writer. She is known as sensitive poet who eloquently interprets the black experience, and is the most acclaimed woman writers

of her time.

The poems she read still reflect her interest and concern for black youth. . The first black to win a Pulitzer Prize, in an earlier interview was asked if she considered herself a writer of protest poetry, she replied,** I have always written about the need for justice in human realtion. My poems have always touched on things that need to be done to better the relations between the races.” Miss Brooks appeared here during Black Awareness Week at three colleges where she read many of her prize-winning poems that won her the most famous pultizer prize. At her appearence at Franklin College, after the formal reading she was awarded an Honorary Doctrate of Human Letters Degree during the convocation. Later she spent an evening with black students at the Black Cutural Center. Miss Brooks gave readings at Marion College and Indiana Central College, where a dinner was given in her honor by the school and attended by school officials and invited guest.

Thrifty, self-employed citizen leaves Butler U. $60,000 legacy

NEW HAVEN, Conn.—(NBNS>— A Yale University School of Medicine research team has develped the first sucessful test for detecting the sickle cell anemia disease in the newborn. The test will enable physicians to recognize at the earliest possible time that a child has sickle cell anemia, rather than merely the trait for the disease, and thus enable them to protect the life of the child. According to the research team’s report in The Journal of the American Medical Association; • “Although there is considerable controversy about the deslrablity of routine testing for the sickle call trait, there can be little disagreement that early recognition of sickle cell anemia is a valid medical goal.

ALBERT SPIKES The late Albert Spikes, 4221 Rookwood, born on a Georgia plantation and who could not read or write, except to sign his name, has left a $60,000 Dequest from his estate to establish a scholar ship fund here at Butler University. According to his attorney, W.F. LeMond, Spikes’ Scholarship, for deserving students as determined by the board of trustees of the university. Spikes labored as a handyman and accumulated an estate in real property in excess of

$60,000 his attorney observed. Born, the son of an emancipated slave, he never knew his father, and was given away to a childless white family when he was only a few months old. Following varying experiences as a youth and young man he arrived in this city from Tennessee in the 1920’s. Working first in a foundry, he later became handyman working for promenent families in the Brendonwood area. He then purchased land in the vicinity of 60th and Rucker Road (now Indiana Highway 37). He lived there until the State condemned his homesite for highway improvements. His third home site was the property south of Butler University or in Rookwood Ave. He was twice married and his Will provided that upon his demise and the demise of his wife, his entire estate would go to Butler University to establish the Spikes’ Scholarship. Dr. Alexander E. Jones, president of the university observed: “He (Spikes) chose to leave his life’s earnings to help students benefit from educational opportunities that he himself never enjoyed is evidence that Mr. Spikes was a remarkable man with noble ideals...Needless to say, his story is most inspiring.’
