George .Mc Govern (D-SJ3.). have refused invitations to attend the G rid iron Club’ s annual dinner in Washington, D. C. on A p ril 8 because the prestigious jo u r nalism club excludes women from membership. "Gentlemen of theG ridiron Club,” replied M rs.Chisholm in a statement, "guess who’ s not coming to dinner!” M rs. Chisholm was one of 15 prominent women who were invited under a new club poli cy, voted last December, of in cluding a lim ited num be r of women, to be designated by club leaders, at the previously all-m ale dinner.

The club plans to invite "tw o or three othei women” later, in addition to the 15, said its president Edgar Allen Poe, but he would not give their names. McGovern, in r e p ly to the club, w ro te ,"I prefer not to at tend so long as the G ridiron Club continues its policy of ex cluding women members.” F o r the previous two years, when no women were admitted, the dinner was picketed by an ad hoc group called the Jour nalists fo r P r o f e s s i o n a l Equality. A le tte r went out to potential guests t h is year. signed by 251 journalists, urg ing them not to attend because " th is transparent tokenism does not correct the basic in equity. The G ridiron C lu b continues its 87-year-old pol icy of excluding women from membership while represent ing itse lf as an organization of the mostdistinguished journa lis ts in Washington.” Poe s a id he felt that t h i s year's dinner was "obviously a break-through.
