Yergan held the directorship
lor 10 years-
However, Dr. DuBois declar¬
ed that *he had refused a sal¬
ary from the council in order
to maintain his freedom of ex¬
pression. He said his work
“will be moiij directly for the
council.”
Tne NAACP has agreed to
pay Dr. DuBois *2,400 for the
year 1949 in view of his long
years oi service to the organi¬
zation. One of the founders,
he was editor of the Crisis un¬
til 1934, when he resigned af¬
ter another run-in with White
and the directors. T-iis time,
he says he is leaving “for
good.”
According to Roy Wilkins,
assistant NAACP executive
secretary, Dr DuBois left “be-
cau e of differences of admin¬
istrative and organizational
procedures- He said the NAACP
leader "was never an organi¬
zational man and for 25 years,
he was the brilliant, individual
editor of the Crisis, the boss of
his own enterprise who had
the freest riegn.”
Wilkins succeeded Dr. DuBois
as Crisis editor.

THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE
1948 Highlights Of NAACP
NEW YORK, Jan. 3—Plans
for celebrating the 40th anni¬
versary of the National Asso¬
ciation for the Advancement
of Colored People were out¬
lined and evidences of the in¬
creased national and global in¬
fluence of the association not-
ed in the report for the year
1948 of Walter White, NAACP
executive secretary, presented
before the 40th annual meeting
of the association held here
today
High in importance in the
record for 1948, according to
I Mr. White, is the vital role
played by Negro voters in last
year’s election Early in 1918
!he NAAQP and twenty other
national Negro organizations
joined in a non-partisan state¬
ment of principles entitled
“Declaration of Negro Voters,”
which was submitted to the
major parties for inclusion in
their platforms and was used
as a guide to Negro voters in
judging candidates.
Citing the unity of Negro
voters behind candidates sup¬
porting a full civil rights pro¬
gram as contributing heavily
to the election; of a liberal ad¬
ministration and Congress, Mr.
White indicated that the
NAACP “will rally its total re¬
sources to secure enactment by
the 81st Congress of anti¬
lynching, anti-poll tax and
federal fair employment prac¬
tices laws, along with other
^regressive social legislation.”
By 1.950, he predicted, there
will be approximately 2,000,000
Negro voters in the South who
will be in a position to help in
the election of liberal Con¬
gressmen from that region-
Two outstanding NAACP le¬
gal victories of the year, ac¬
cording to the secretary’s re¬
port, were the United States
Supreme Court decision in the
case ot McGhee vs. Sipes, in
which restrictive housing cove-
lants were declared legally un¬
enforceable, and the decisions
of Judge J. Waites Waring of
South Carolina outlawing the
"white” primary election in
that state.
In the educational field, Mr.
White cited the successful
cases which won equalization of
teachers’ salaries in Alabama
and Louisiana, and mentioned
the continuing fight for equal¬
ity of opportunity in higher ed¬
ucation n Oklahoma, Texas and
other southern states. He also
noted that the NAACP Nation¬
al Board of Directors is on
record as firm in its opposition
to the proposed regional plan
for segregated education and
asserted that the association
will present “implacable op¬
position to the ratification of
such a plan by Congress” and
will carry its fight against seg¬
regated regional colleges to the
courts if necessary The 80th
Congress had rejected the plan
oy a one-vote margin in the
Senate, he recalled.
The reinstatement of Frank
Barnes, suspended postal em¬
ployee of Santa Monica, Calif.,
cited as the first victory
by the NAACP under its
recently-announced policy ol
intervention in( loyalty probes
in cases where charges of dis-

On ths international scene,
Mr. White related observations
he made as an adviser to the
United Stales delegation, to the
Paris session of the United Na-
Lions General Assembly, and
praised the assembly for its
adoption of the Deelaraticn of
Human Rights and passage of
the resolution outlawing geno¬
cide, which had been urged by
the NAACP in- its 1948 pro¬
gram. Mr White also pointed
out that the association had
taken a firm stand against re¬
turn of former Italian colonies
to Italian rule and has pressed
lor suspension of Marshall
plan aid to the Netherlands,
pending a satisfactory settle¬
ment of the Indonesian dis¬
pute-

tion.

BOSTON ATTORNEY ONCE
CAPTAINED HARVARD’S TEAM
By Samuel P. Perry, Jr
BOSTON (ANP) — Although
Le'd Jackson’s election as cap¬
tain of Yale’s 1949 football
teams marks the first time a
Negro has headed a Big Three
team in history, this is not the
first time a colored player has
led a team on the field.
Way back n 1893 on Thanks¬
giving day, William H. Lewis,
now a noted Boston attorney,
captained Harvard against
Penn when the regular aptain
was absent. In fact, Lewis, who
studied law at Harvard, was
picked for Walter Camn’s All-
American team as center rush
n 1892 and 1893.
In reporting the action in
that Harvard-Penn game, a re
porter in the Boston Globe
wrote;
“Harvard's phenomenal cen¬
ter, the plucky and honest Lew¬
is, who captained the eleven
in yesterday’s game in the ab¬
sence of Waters (the regular
captain) plaved himself into
ihe hearts of every Harvard
man yesterday.
"The work of Lewis was no¬
thing short of marvelous. He
wer> into the game weighing
168 pounds He faced a man
weighing 22 pounds more than
he did, yet it seemed as if
that big, black, curly-head of
Harvard’s center rush was in
every play.
“He was all the time encour¬
aging his players, and for hard¬
ly a minute did he stop talk*
ing. When the bail was down
or\ Pennsylvania’s five and 10
yard line, you could hear Lew¬
is as he bent over the ball
shouting, ‘Now, fellows, we
must score.’
"As the battle went on and
Harvard’s leader continued to
work with phenomenal energy
his strength was severely tax-
ed. Several times he had to
stop from sheer exhaustion,
but he could play it out and

ivard Negro football player, Wil¬
liam H Lewis, the Crimson

Camp on his All-America of

tion. His fame spread through

tire football world of that day.
