Scientist Quits University Post at Fisk
NASHVILLE Tenn June 11 uP A young atomic scientist accused of recruiting for the Communist party has left his job as associate professor of physics at Fisk University. Fisk President Charles S Johnson said 28 year old Giovanni Rossi Lomanitz walked off the campus after refusing to admit or deny he was a Communist. He did not submit a formal resignation. Lomanitz, called before the House American Activities Committee yesterday, was accused by a former associate at the University of California radiation laboratory of recruiting for the Communist party. The worker Robert Davis said Lomanitz induced him and his wife to join the party in California while both men were employed at the plant during the war. The question of Lomanitzs alleged Communist affiliation arose at the Negro university about two weeks ago when he was notified he was to appear before the committee. Johnson said he told the young physicist he would have to suspend his contract with the university pending the investigation.
