David Snyder forms new architectural firm
Recorder Advertisers
David F. Snyder, Indianapolis’ first Negro architect, has left his high position with the city’s leading architectual firm to establish a firm in his own
name.
A principal in James Associate s , Architects-Engineers, since 1958, Mr. Snyder will practice from offices at 4015 N. Keystone Avenue. Engaging in the general practice of architecture, the firm will be known as David F. Snyder & Associates, Architects. A graduate of Crispus Attacks High School, Mr. Snyder received his Bachelor of Science degree in Architectural Engineering from the University of Illinois, and has pursued post graduate study at Purdue University and the University of California at Los Angeles. He passed examinations given by the state of Indiana and was certified as an architect by the state in 1953, becoming only the second Negro in Indiana history reaching this height. For the past several years he has conducted classes in
structural design for graduate architects pursuing state certification. He is regarded as one of the foremost experts in the Midwest in structural de-
sign.
While a member of the James staff he was project architect for many schools, churches and homes throughout the state. An outstanding example of his work is the new Fall Creek Parkway YMCA. Trinity CME Church, the Howard W. Sams office and production building, Bloomington Hospital, and Indianapolis Public School No. 2 are also works of Mr. Snyder. The homes of Dr. Roy D. Clinthorne, Ralph W. Jones, and Charles T. Edwards are among many designed by Snyder and constructed under his direction. A member of the American Institute of Architects, Mr. Snyder is also a member of the Fall Creek Parkway YMCA Board of Management, Metropolitan YMCA Finance Committee, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, and Mt. Zion Baptist Church.

nightsticks proved painful for both pursuers and pursued.

CORE Pickets
Continued from Page 1 Plan Integration Now, Freedom Now!, End Secregation at Attacks Now.” and others. The pickets, half of them white, came after CORE officials met with School Board members Tuesday night and demanded a halt to construction of additions to the all-Negro school, which they say will encourage de facto segregation. But, as in the past, the board said it would go ahead with construction plans. However, Mrs. Ralph Coble, board president, said that racial problems would be handled by the planning committee and named Richard Lugar as chairman.
Named to work with Lugar were Mrs. Horace H. Page, only Negro member of the board, and Ortho Scales. School administrators will also serve on the committee. A spokesman at the site of the picketing said that the demonstrations would continue indefinitely, but gave a brisk “no comment” when asked if lie-ins were planned. The actual construction work on the school is now going on inside the football and track field, which is fenced in. Policemen, there to keep trouble makers away, watched the pickets. CORE mem'oers passed out literature which read, “Indianapolis CORE is not protesting the improvement of facilities for Attucks or any other school. The Indianapolis School Board must adopt a plan of total integration! We cannot allow the

social and educational injustice of defacto segregation to be forced upon our children.” The literature also reminded pickets not to laugh or talk, not to strike back or talk back when abused, and “in case of violence, leave the scene.” “SELECTIVE BUYING CAMPAIGN” SUCCESSFUL Mrs. Carlie Anderson, cochairman of CORE’S Employment Committee, said that the Budweiser campaign was a “great success mainly because of cooperation in the Negro community.” Mitchem said that CORE had obtained the cooperation of all major beer outlets in the group’s campaign to bring fair employment practices into the distributing company. “Everyone was solid,” Mitchem stated. “You could not buy the beer in some places. Even some ‘Bud’ fans were with us.” However he was quick to warn, “There are other dealers who may be discriminatory— they are next!” Mrs. Anderson said that in a meeting with the company’s officials July 23, the firm agreed to indicate fair employment in their advertisements. She also said the company agreed to let them check their seniority lists neriodically to verify their good faith. She also said that there were four qualified Negroes in the company’s application file, and that they would be hired in the next vacancy.
Christ Temple Continued from rage 1 rooms and hotel accommodations have already been arranged by Mrs. Hazel Owens, housing chairman. The National Young People’s Organization will also hold its meeting in Indianapolis at the close of the parent body on August 8 in conjunction with the National Sunday School Convention. Christ Temple has a large interracial congregation and also maintains one of the most modern and best equipped homes for the aged. It was erected at a cost of over $240,000 under the leadership of Bishop Lee, District Elder Harry Herman, Christ Temple’s assistant pastor, and Deacon Earle Ballard, business manager. The local convention and Bible Conference is open to the general public and the daily schedule includes morning devotion, 10 a.m.; Bible class and conference, 1 p.m.; dinner, 1 p.m., and evangelistic services. 7:30 p.m.
Continued from Page 1 generally misconstrued as such, Stanley explained. “Thus their continuance, spread, or even the birth of any kindred irresponsible demonstrations anywhere, will serve only at this time to intensify and aid forces of reaction.” In his plea, the publisher called “upon all editors and publishers of the Negro press, and all other leaders as well, to use their every resource to institute programs to prevent racial rioting, looting and the spread of hate in their communities. In my judgement, this can best be done by not only undertaking strong editorial campaigns but by encouraging more interracial leadership meetings with local and state authorities.” Stanley concluded by reminding that “mere existence of civil rights laws is not sufficient. Every community must discover effective solutions to the grave problems of racial unemployment, segregated housing and inferior education that yet remain. Let us give, top priority to discouraging violence and channeling the minds and energies of men of good will toward solving these root problems.”

Nashville. Hoffa has been dogged for the past several years by a brilliant young Negro federal prosecuting attorney. Charles Z. Smith, a trial attorney in the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, presented evidence which led to Hoffas conviction in both cases. Smith was also instrumental in the conviction of Dave Beck, former Teamster president. Hoffa, long a controversial figure in the American labor movement, has had the support of A. Philip Randolph of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, in Hoffa’s bid to have the Teamsters re-admitted to the AFL-CIO. Randolph has contended on several occasions that Hoffa’s Teamsters have a much better record of integration than many of the unions in the AFL-CIO fold.

Govt, asked to aid in school desegregation BATON ROUGE, La. — The Federal government has been asked to intervene in the local desegregation crisis and compel the St. Helen Parish (county) School board to obey laws calling for an end to segregated
schools.
In the state’s smallest parish where rumors of a Ku Klux Klan renewed buildup are repeatedly heard, the School Board has sternly refused to submit a plan for desegregat ; on and said that it “in no way accepts the constitutionality” of the civil rights bill. With schools scheduled to reopen August 12, Federal District Judge E. Gordon West warned Board members that if they do not comply to the law, a court order for complete and immediate integration will be meted out. The Board has contended that it fears only violence and blood shed would result from racial mixing in class rooms. It is for these reasons that the parish has called upon the Community Relations Service, set up under the new law, and Francis Keppel, the United States Commissioner of Education, for help. It was through Louisiana Attorney General Jack P. F. Gremillion that Federal help was asked for St. Helena Parish where school integration attempts have been going on for the last 12 years. Judge West stated that he was in complete agreement with the request. The Community Relations Service was created under the new law to help states and communities to solve problems arising from the new law. The agencies director is LeRoy Collins, former governor of
Florida.
