Pioneer Health
To Be Honored Dec.
A portrait of Dr. Walter J.
Hughes, a pioneer in North
Carolina health education, will
be unveiled in ceremonies at
3 p.m., Sunday, December 10
in North Carolina Central Uni
versity's health education build
ing.
Dr. Hughes was the first
Negro health officer to serve
with the North Carolina State
Board of Health, joining the
staff of the board in 1920
as a direct result of a grant
from the RosenwalU Founda
tion. His assignment was speci
fically in the area of veneral
disease control and education,
and his work and techniques
are mentioned in major texts
in that field.
Dr. Hughes later became a
member of the staff of the
North Carolina School Health
Coordinating Service. In this
capacity, he made major con
tributions to the health of the
school population of North
Carolina. The Surgeon General
of the UJS. sent members of
the Public Health Service to
North Carolina for training un
der Dr. Hughes.
Mrs. Jennie D. Taylor, a
former associate of Dr. Hughes
and the chairman of the com
mittee responsible for acquir
ing the portrait of Dr. Hughes
by William C. Fields of Fayette
ville, remembers working with
Dr. Hughes in the field of
school health.
been byword across the land,
a shining symbol of pragmatic
education, wholesome commu
nity service and good inter
group relations. The up hill
climb has been long and diffi
cult but it has moved from a
two-year program to a four
year program. Grambling Col
lege now lies nestled among
340 acres in the heart of the
Town of Grambling with fifty
permanent buildings including
a stadium, laige farm, spaciouf
playgrounds and all othe. col
legiate appointments. Its valu
ation is in excess of $32 mil
lion.
The College now has four
divisions with numerous offer
ings in each: Division of Educa
tion; Division of Applied Sci
ence and Technology, The Di
vision of Liberal Arts and the
Dividon of General Studies.
About 4,000 students a
year and over 15,000 gradua
tes everywhere can tell you
anytime, what the applause
and yells are all about.
What about those outstand
ing players who will be com
peting against NCCU's Eagles—
this team that has sent more
active professional players to
the pros than any other school
or university except Notre
Dame?
The fans will eagerly watch
to see if NCCU Eagles can

"He knew how to reach the
people. He was doing some'
thing nobody else was doing."
Mrs. Taylor recalls a day in
the mid - 1940's when Dr.
Hughes pointed to a group of
school children in an eastern
North Carolina town. "He
said 'Jennie, do you see those
children? They look a whole
lot better now than when I
first started."
Many of the techniques de
veloped by Dr. Hughes in im
proving the health of North
Carolina school children have
been adapted by the World
Health Organization to their
use.
The portrait will hang at
North Carolina Central because
of Dr. Hughes' close associa
tion with the university. It was
he who recommended to' Dr.
James E. Shepard that the uni
versity establish a department
of health education and pub
lic health. Dr. Hughes was also
insturmental in improving
health services at black colleges
and universities in the state.
Dr. Hughes is survived by
his wife, Mrs. Hattie Hughes of
Greensboro. Two sons, Walter
J. Hughes Jr. and Durward
Hughes, are medical doctors.
Mrs. Hughes will attend the
ceremonies on December 10
and Dr. Hughes' granddaughter
Carol will unveil the portrait.
