Press Has New Opportunities: Sengsfacke As America's Drive for Justice Slows, Dlacli WASHINGTON (NNPA) Speaking before a standing-room-only luncheon at the National Press Club servance of Black Press Week, John H. Sengstacke, editor-publisher, Chicago Daily Defender, challenged blackpublishers to fill the social justice void left by white editors. Taking as his subject "A National Delimma," Seng stacke, who is also president of the National Newspaper Publishers Association, trac ed the achievements of the Black Press, from getting black officers into World War! I and subsequent elim ination of segregation in the armed forces to getting Jackie Robinson into base ball and housing covenants abolished. The NNPA head indi cated that until a few years ago, the Black Press had an ally in the white press which also shouted: "....down with segregation, down with police brutality, and down with discrimination in em ployment." But now this voice is "conspicuously silent," he said. Sengstacke declared, "Their desertion of the cause affords the Black Press a golden opportunity to reassert itself As part of the national dilemma, Sengstacke pointed to the University of California developing a special admission pro gram for under-priviledged black students, only to have it abolished by the Supreme Court's Bakke decision which "tends to erode the grounds on which rests "the whole concept of affirmative action " At the close of his speech, three late distinguished editor pub lishers were unveiled for enshrinement in the Black Press Gallery at Howard University. The three were: Robert S. Abbott, who founded the Chicago Defender in 1905 and edited it until his death in 1940; Robert L. Vann, who took over the strug gling Pittsburgh Courier in 1910 and developed it into a major newspaper by the time of his death in 1940; and Plummer B. Young, Sr., who purchased the Norfolk Journal & Guide in 1910 and edited ituntil his death in 1962. Replicas of the enshrine ment plaques were present ed to the heirs of the honor ees. Sengstacke received an Abbott plaque; Virginia tlnion and the Pittsburgh Courier, one of Vann; and Mrs. Plummer B. Young Sr., one of her late hus band. William O. Walker, editor-publisher of the Cleveland Call & Post and dean of the Black Press, and Dr. Michael R. Win ston, director of the Moor-land-Spingarm Research Center at Howard where the Gallery is located, con ducted the enshrinement and presenation.
