Indignation at Denton
Just to the west, in Texas, col
leges and universities have opened
their doors wider. OF the more
than 80 colleges and universities
in the Lone Star State, at least
40 have integrated either in fact
or in principle, although, as in
Louisiana, actual indignation has
been relatively small.
The most integrated institution
of higher learning in Texas is
North Texas State College at Den
ton, in the heart of a major cotton
growing area. NSTC has 247 Ne
groes in a student body totaling
1888. The college had three Ne
groes on its varsity football squad
this year. One Of them was an out
standing player and received ALL
American mention. The teams re-
cord was among the nations best.
The University Of Texas has 247
Negro students among its total
enrolment of 1850.
Lamar Tech at Beaumont, in
east Texas, has 1914 Negroes among
$3.50 students.
Segregation continues to be the
policy at Texas A & M College
and it's branches, Texas Technol-
ogical College in Lubbock, and
the six state teachers colleges.
According to the Southern
School News, Texas administra-
tors report Negroes have a harder
time passing their college work
than the average white student in
integrated schools and show a
greater proportion Of dropouts.
The novelty of seeing Negroes on
the campuses is disappearing rap
idly.

minded commissioners that Ne
groes have been barred from prom
inent positions on broadcasting
programs.
Raps "Charlatan Programs"
She also spoke out against
primitive stereotype" programs
offered by many stations owned
by whites but oriented toward Ne
gro listeners. Among them she
listed "quack religious and char
latan programs" bait advertis-
ing programs" and base and
suggestive songs"
There are about 400 stations
catering to Negro audiences, she
stated, less than six of which are
owned and operated by Negroes.
These stations too often include on
their programs sellers of blessed
candles and good-luck charms"
and use such advertising bait as
name the tune and win a dia-
mond." These "come-on" programs
are used to lure traffic into the
store for some worthless article.
She blasted radio programs
composed of so-called race songs"
which are often borderline risaue
recordings of poor taste.
Not only that, she added, but
these offensive programs are often
offered to the public by people
identified as Or. 1--WE" Big Boy,
and Cat Man"
The moral strength of America
is at stake in the questions before
the Commission" she emphasized,
And the evil of profit obsession
appears to be the sole way of de-
the quality and level of
orogramming."
Some of the Commissioners
seemed surprised when she re-
minded them that no Negroes hold
positions as announcers, news re-
oorters, sports reporters, host en-
:ertainers, religious or educational
speakers on network broadcasting
programs. AS guardians of public
interest, she challenged the COM
to eliminate the prac-
ice Of excluding Negroes in net
work broadcasting.
FEC Has Power To Act
She assured them that they have
'ast power to act in this direction
ince Congress has given them the
mandate to issue licenses and to
'eview performances of licensees
Is a condition to license renewal.
Chairman John c. Doerfer con-
ended that they did not have the
power to explore this issue since
hey are not permitted to raise
he question of race or religion on
station programming. That, he
aid, would be a violation of a
specific law.
Mrs. Weeden said she made no
lain to go into the law on this
subject, but If the commission
should adopt a democratic attitude
md make their position known it
would certainly help eliminate
'ome of the problems Of minori-
les.
The chairman claimed it is diff
,ult to try to dictate the business
policy of a station. And he rebelled
against the democratic approach

orv classrooms into the center of :
massive social engineering project.
Although college desegregation
is ahead of the lower schools, the
number of Negroes actually in in
tegrated colleges in the II southern
and border states is relatively
small.
Louisiana Noted
In four Deep South states -
South Carolina, Mississippi, Geor-
ia, and Alabama - all state COL
leges and universities and nearly
all private institutions are segre-
gated still.
OF special interest, however, is
the record of another state tradi-
tionally identified with the Deep
South - Louisiana. Eight of Lou
isiana's Is public and private univ
ersities and colleges are desegre-
gated, according to the Southern
School News, published in Nash
vile by the Southern Education
Reporting Service, a nonprofit,
nonpartisan organization.
No Incidents Reported
Indignation of Louisiana's tax
supported colleges has been kept
quiet. Officials are almost secre-
tive and reluctant to discuss it.
why stir up a hornets nest,
when we are moving along much
better than we had anticipated"
one college officials said.
Three of the four state schools
with mixed enrolment do not keep
records by race.
They are Southwestern Louis
lana Institute at Lafayette, Nc
Neese State College at Lake
Charles, and Southeastern Louis
lana College at Hammond. All are
in their fifth year of integrated
classes. None has reported any
incidents and there are no written
restrictions on use of facilities by
Negroes.
A significant development is
taking place on the New Orleans
campus of Louisiana State Uni
versity In the two years since
the New Orleans branch of LSU
opened, Negro enrolment has
risen steadily. Currently, a little
more than 400 Negroes attend
classes with LOO white students.
Negroes also attend classes on the
main campus of LSU in Baton
Rouge, La. The first Negroes en-

Highway Deaths
For Holiday Rise
To Total of 437
BY the Associated Press

Snow and freezing rain in
some sections of the country
were major factors in the cause
of deaths in traffic of many
persons during the extended
Thanksgiving holiday.
With figures not yet COM
plete, the highway death toll
today stood at 437.
The National Safety Council
forecast that 470 would die in
traffic over the four-day holi-
day.
In addition, 70 persons were
killed in fires, 134 died in mis-
cellaneouS accidents, for an
overall total of GAL.
The period covered by the
survey started at 6 pm. local
time Wednesday, and ended at
midnight last night-a total of
102 hours.
The Associated Press recent
ly surveyed a non-holiday week
end of 102 hours and listed 433
traffic deaths, 49 in fires and
100 from miscellaneous causes
Last Thanksgiving, asa died
in traffic accidents, 54 in fires
and lib in other types of acci-
dents.
