Court UphoIds Ban
on Jim Crow Trains

WASHINGTON. - The United
States Supreme Court last week
denied the petition of the At
lantic Coast Line Railroad for a
writ of certiorari agreeing 10 re-
view lower court decision BAN
ming the segregation of passen-
gers in interstate travel on the
lines routes south of Richmond.
Sponsored by the Virginia State
Conference of branches of the
NAACP. the suit originated
when William c. Chance was re-
novel from train at Emporia.
Va. for refusing TO change his
seat in compliance with the COM
pany's segregation rule.
The United States Court Of
Appeals, whose decision the ST.
preme Court upheld by refusing
10 grant certiorari, held that the
railroads segregation regulation
was an unlawful burden on in
terstate commerce.
The decision is regarded as
effectively outlawing all carrier
segregation regulations applca-
bic to interstate coach passen-
gers.

AS result. few Negroes IN
Detroit actually wanted TO buy
yachts. Among the men ana
women who could afford these
luxury crafts. few wanted I,
buy a big boat to find that there
was no place for it to call home.
Then one day during a North
ern Michigan skiing trip, DR.
Edgar Keemer, prominent Detroit
physician, and James Sonny
Stinson. son of Joseph Stinson,
the mortician, struck up a con-
versation about yacht clubs.
The two men decided on the
spot that they would start a
yacht club in Detroit for Ne
groes--"and for anybody else
who wanted to join"
In March. 1850, the blue, white
and red colors of the Coronado
Yacht Club came into noticeable
existence. The club was formed.
with DR.. Keemer named Vice
Commodore and Stinson as Com
modore.
Outstanding in the initial or
ganization of the Coronado Yacht
Club was the late Fleetwood Nc
Coy, Jr., who died with his beau
tiful wife abroard their pleasure
schooner of gas poisoning outside
East Tawas, Mich, not many
months ago.
At the time of starting, the
CYC had only two yachts
Fleetwood's and StinSon'S. Today
after a reorganizational program
earlier this year. the CYC has
eight craft in its membership.
Home dock for their CYC yachts
is the beautiful new Sun! Club
located just 4o minutes by boat
from Detroit on Stoney Pointe.
The CYC is the only Negro
yacht club in the world regis
tered with LloYds of London.
Biggest in the CYC listings Is

Virgins family The craft cruises
at 80 knots per hour and accom-
modates four for eating ana
sleeping.
Members of the CYC are en-
visioning chopping a slip from
the nearby Ruscum River, max

have easy and closer access TO

Excessive Speed Is Worst

"a dead person can't accept the

That grim reminder was given
yesterday by Robert Kennedy, Vice
President for Public Safety of the
Delaware Safety Council.
Excessive speed is the worst
form of rudeness on the road, be-
cause it is fertile ground that
breeds other discourteous acts,

laws. Mr.. Kennedy said, "but in
most fatal accidents, the person
best qualified to tell about it has
been killed.
SThe driver who has faulty

is guilty of a discourtesy that may
never be detected as violation af-
ter a fatal collision. More obvious
discourtesies include driving on the
