Though he experienced much difficulty in obtaining Food and Drug Administration approval, Davis was allowed to conduct trials in several African countries.

The national sorority Delta Zeta, accused of evicting 23 members of its DePauw University chapter on the basis of appearance and popularity, sued the university on March 28, after the school kicked the group off campus.
