Copies Two Others
Within Decade !.

For the third time in Arizona s.
history, there will be two Negro
legislators in the capitol. Gilbert
ray, Sr., elected from legislative
istrict No 8, will team up with
e. D. Holmes from district No. 8
o continue the precedent set de-
ade ago.
In 1851, Arizonans sent two Ne
groes to the 10th Legislature. Carl
Sims, who was this year defeated
oy Gray in the primaries, repre-
sented district 8. Hayzel B. Dan :
els, currently Deputy Attorney
ieneral served in the 10th Legis-
lature from district 8.
This was the famed legislative
session which passed permissiye
chool desegregation law in 1851
which started Arizona on its FAM
Gus trend in school integration.
Sims and Daniels played major
coles in this legislation. fs
In 1858 the 2lst legislature had
two Negroes again. Sims was re-.
aimed, having served in the legis-
.ature from 1851 through 1860. The
ate Doc F. Benson, Arizona Sun
publisher replaced Daniels in tn el
21st, maintaining the two Negroes
n the House.
With the current questions of pu-
bic accommodations and fair EN-.
oloyment in the foreground, it is

will have plenty of legislative ex-
