Statement Withheld
By ". & N. Board
Until Inquiry Ends
By Brian Bell, Jr.
Star Stoff Correspondent


RICHMOND. Va, Aug. 16.-The
public will have to wait until
Saturday, and possibly longer, for
any new developments in the in
vestigation of alleged "malprac-
tlces" in the athletic department
OF the College of William and
Mary.
The schools Board of Visitors,
expected to name a new football
coach and issue a statement on
the irregularities" after yester-
days meeting to investigate the
situation, had nothing to report
after a six-hour session here.
The facts are not all in and
we will have no statement until
they are" said Oscar L. Shew-
make. chairman of the board
which was called to investigate
the alleged, ''tampering" with the
transcripts of high school ath-
letes entering William and Mary.
Successors to Rube McCray,
football coach, and Barney VIII
son. basketball coach, who re-
signed Saturday, were not named.
DR.. Nelson Marshall, dean of the
university, and witness yester-
day had predicted new coaches
would be appointed and a full
statement issued yesterday but
this did not materialize.
May Name Coaches Saturday.
"The board will reconvene Sat-
urday at II am. and hope by
the end of that session we will
appoint a new staff of head
coaches and assistants" Judge
Shewmake announced. However,
as to statement on the investi-
cation. that may last longer than
Saturday-in fact for some days
longer" he added.
when all the facts are in we'll
clean house. Our findings will be
just like those of a jury" Asked
how far the board would go after
the investigation, Shewmake an
sWered, Until the house is clean.
That's as strong as I can put It,"
The board turned the matter of
new coaches over to a three-man
committee headed by j. v. Bauser-
man of Woodstock, Va. They are
to meet and make recommenda-
tionS for a new staff at Satur-
days session.
Marvin Bass, 31-year-old Will
liam and Mary line coach under
McCray. still remains the leading
candidate. Bass was called to
testify before the board late yes
terday but Shewmake said he was
not approached about the job.
Bass has been quoted as saying
he would accept the job if mo-
strings were attached"
Identifies Witnesses.
All that reporters could learn
from the tight-mouthed Shew-
make, after waiting from 10.45 am.
to $50 pm. yesterday, was who
testified but not what they said. |
Al Vandeweghe, a former assist
ant to McCray and the man who
broke the "malpractices" story
when he disclosed a letter from
Dean Marshall clearing him of
any part in the irregularities, was
the first witness. He testified for
25 minutes.
VandeWeghe was followed by
Arthurd Hanson of Washington, |,
vice president of the William and
Mary Alumni Association, and DR.. |
John Pomfret, president of the |,
college, in the morning session.
Dean Marshall was the afternoons |
only witness and Shewmake said |
the board was not through hearing |
his testimony at the close of yes
terday's session. !
McCray, accompanied by his
friend, Attorney Walter Hoffman,
sat through the meeting, but &C
cording to Shewmake, was not
called on to speak.

Gods Face Toward Us

Some one tells the story out
of the life of Robert E. Speer.
It seems that his little son was
afraid to sleep in the dark.
AS a brave Christian soldier,
Mr.. Speer must needs have a
gallant son, so he trained the
little lad to sleep with the lights
out. But one night the child
awoke, perhaps out of a bad
dream. The darkness gripped his
little soul with fear. but he
did lot want to be a coward
so, in his fear he whispered to
his father. who was lying 81
bed near by: Daddy! Daddy.
Don't turn on the light. but
tell me is your face toward
me?"
Yes. my son.. said the IA
Their, my face is toward you"
So the lad once more COM
posed himself in peace to sleep.
II may seem TO you sometimes
as if the darkness has settled
thick for you. Remember, then.
that God may not turn on the
light. but his face is toward you
and his heart speaks: Courage.
my son, courage,"

A.A.A. REBUKED
BY INSURANCE
COMMISSIONER
CONTINUED from Page u

Rev. Boyd, member of the
automobile association in Califor-
MIA. reported to the Urban League
of Portland that when he went to
the Portland office of AAA to
transfer his policy he was told that
the company handling AAA poll
cies in Oregon did not accept Ne
gro risks. He then contacted the
local office of the insurance firm,
where he was informed that the
company insured Orientals but did
not insure Negroes.
Edwin c. Berry, executive sec
rotary of the Urban League, adj
vised Rev. Boyd of state regula'
lions and policy regarding automo-
bile insurance. and helped the min
lister establish contact with the
commissioner.
ION September %, $780, the
commissioner wrote. George c.
Clark, assistant secretary of Man
ufacturers & Merchants Indemnity
Co. addressed a pledge to this De-
partment that all persons in the
State of Oregon applying to your
company for automobile bodily in
jury and property damage insur-
ance will be considered by the
same underwriting methods and
standards.
Apparently your company took
this pledge as token of implied
cooperation with the Oregon Insur-
ance Department and the Oregon
insurance laws without intention
of fulfillment of the pledge.
"All the insurance companies
writing automobile insurance in
the State of Oregon made simi-
lar pledge on voluntary basis. To
date your company is the only conn
pany to my knowledge which has
not stood behind their pledge 100
per cent. The Oregon law requires
that companies licensed to transact
the business of insurance in this
state shall not discriminate be-
tween risks of essentially the same
hazard. If the pledge of your COM
pany is not be relied upon, you can
be assured that the word of this
Department. can be relied upon TO
enforce the insurance laws of this
state for the public good"
The battle to eliminate discrimi-
natory rates charged Negroes for
auto liability and bodily damage
insurance has been all but wiped
out in Oregon through the constant
vigilance of the Urban League and
through the assistance of the, Gov
ernor's office.
