MEMORANDUM

GASCH, District Judge.

This is an action for award of attorneys’ fees as a result of successful resolution of a complaint of discrimination against the defendant. Plaintiff is a black employee of the Food and Drug Administration. In May, 1975 he applied for the vacancy of GS-13 Biologist, and shortly thereafter the selecting official cancelled the vacancy announcement. Plaintiff filed a complaint with the agency alleging that the circumstances of that cancellation constituted racial discrimination. The agency investigated and issued a proposed disposition finding no discrimination.
