Predominantly from large urban areas in the United States, the Mayers symbolically re ceiving the Awards were Ken neth A. Gibson of Newark, X. J. ; Richard G, Hatcher of Gary, Ind.; Carl B. Stokes of Cleveland, Ohio; James H. Mc- Gee of Dayton, Ohio; Walter e. Washington of Washington, D, C.; Howard N, I.ee of Chape! Hill, N. C.. A. Price Woodard, Jr. of Wichita, Kansas; and Charles Evers of Fayette, Mississippi, a national figure, though not Mayor of a large urban area. Mayor John V. Lindsay will officially welcome the Mayors on behalf of the people of New York. Convening for the first time to accept such awards, the Mayors will appear before a cross-section of the com munity -- an anticipated 1,800 persons representing civic and community leaders, corpora tion heads, grassroots organi zations, non-school youth and students. Richard J, Schwartz, Nation al Urban League Board Mem ber and Chairman and Presi dent of Jonathan Logan, will be this year’s dinner Chairman, James A, Linen, President of the League and Chairman ofthe Executive Committee of Time Inc. will present the Awards. Last t ear’s Equal Opportuni ty Day Awards went to former Chief Justice Earl W arren “for great and historic contribu tions to the cause of human rights,’’ and -- as a special achievement award -- to Mau rice W. Lee, Sr. of Boley, Oklahoma, a Black business man who almost single-hand edly salvaged the economy of his all-Black home town. The League, whose Execu tive Director is Whitney M. Young, Jr., established the A wards in 1957 to commemorate the anniversary of I incoln’s immortal rededication at Gettysburg to the proposition that all men are created equal. Each year since, the Award has been given to outstanding ciiizens and organizations who, in the opinion of the Board of Trustees, represent significant , contributions to the realization of the Urban League's goal of equal opportunity for All-A mericans. Mayor Lee was appointed vice chairman of the North Carolina Democratic Party Monday, making history again. This ac tion was taken by Gene Sim mons of Tarboro, party chair man. Lee will serve as vice chairman for minority croups, be responsible v r conferring with blacks, hearing then grievances and report inr back to the partv chairman. MOVEMENT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) the capstone or primary victory of the Civil Rights Movement. Dr. Wilson said that, if blacks pursue a continuous course of activism, he could for see a genocide. He said that in Har lem schools black kids are dy ing with a sort of genocide. Intellectual genocide is being practiced in big cities by help ing blacks to perpetuate ignor ance. 11l prepared teachers are only confusing the kids. He stated, however, that black colleges have buiir the black community and society. He added that, in ordei to get good teachers in schools, strong black men should attend board meetings. Black teachers, he stated, need to strike about something besides money-strike for the neglected children. Dr. Wilson urged the stud' ’tit s to get involved in politics and education. His appearance was spon sored by the Departir cut of so ciology and Social Welfare in a public form:,. TEXTBOOKS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE !) 23 of ‘'Voices iri Literature, Language and Composition” as containing objectional material unsuited for ninth-grade! s o: foi use in any school. Profani ty, as we have known it m almost without abandon on these pages and on pages 204 and 206. "Kid Stuff” narrations on page 275 are listed as "bad ideas” along wit! "Split Dog” story on pace 351 which 'lie writer considers not uplifting of edifying. Pages 352, 328, 202-205 are also objectionable, we would say, for an • student, 9th grade or others. One re viewer termed the book "cor rupt, damaging to character and speech as well as teaching re bellion and violent attitudes.” With tliis we concur. We hope our so-called "Pi bie-belt" school leadership will not permit our curriculums to be longer contaminated with such language. Otherwise, we can but expect further debauch ery of our youths. In another vain, we regret so much-even as much as we do the rioting of blacks that it takes so much to arouse "the establishment" to meeting the just demands of Negro militants which are long, long overdue. The blacks often over-react, while the whites under-react toward granting full jusfiee and equality under the law.

Then thev both ran west on Grantland and after -hp- saw me getting up. "By this time, some people had gathered after hearing the impact of the cab which had rolled down the street and hit something. The ladv at 700 Grantland told me she was going to call the police, but they never came out.” Reports from the police de partment were that they never received a call to come out to investigate this case. PASTOR SLAIN (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) him, according to the report, until a v.T ite man, taking a short cut home, through an area ad jacent to an abandoned night spot, known as the Red Barn, found his body. The report dis closed that ! is pants and shorts were missing, along with his automobile and shoes. The re port disclosed that he had been stabbed twice in the back and once through the heart. The officers said that they ■were making every effort to located his car, in the hope that it might shed some light on the baffling murder. Any racial overtones were ruled out. The officers are said to have rea son to believethat the crime was committed by a ‘friend, or friends’, and talked with some 15 persons, who are said to have known the slain minister. The Rev. McLean was a na tive of Harnett County and re ceived his elementary educa tion in this community. He is said to have courted the idea of preaching and furthered • his education by attending living stone College and Hood Semi nar-,. He also served his country in the armed forces and, upon being released, began to pursue his chosen profession. He pastored quite a few rural churches, both on the Fayette ville and Durham Districts.-His latest pastorate in the state was at Mt. Olive AMR Zion Church, Durham. He was appointed to Old Ship Church about 10 years ago, where he is said to have been prosecuting a creditable program for his congregation and the community. Many poverty programs were carried on at his church, along with a nursery. He was married and lived with his wife and three children, in to parsonage located near the church. Even though he had beer, missing for approximately ! hours, the police had not icon notified. This is sail to have been due to the fact that he was a diabetic patient and often took long irives and walks to get relief. The officers reported that they had reason to believe that he had l>e<‘i dead for about eight hours. The case became more mystifying of him having not lost much blood, in the spot in which he v.as found. T 1 is gave rise to be fact that he could hate been murdered elsewhere and dumped there.

This will mean some agonizing reappraisal on the pari of the Funds, but repre sents a relatively minor agony compared to the ,eal pain pre sently suffered by the nation’s disadvantaged.

"The Urban League is a strong and viable national movement," Jones said, "and we knew that if we stood united in this crisis that United Ways in every local community would have to sit up and take real notice of the Urban League.
