Model Bernice Pink, left, and Sister Mary Jeannine, R.S.M., pose together to illustrate the fasion [sic. fashion] changes proposed for the habit of the Sisters of Mercy. The design proposed at left is the work of Catherine Scott of Chicago. A spokesman for the Sisters of Charity, while stressing that the proposed habit has not been approved, said that Miss Scott's design was "very much" in the spirit of the call for more modern garb for nuns. The order's habit has not been changed since the 18th century. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (U-NY-1E-64-W)

It was sponsored by about 100 leading religious and civic residents of Atlanta, where Dr. King was born and where he is co-pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist church.
