[Douglas G. Wilson]

 From ProQuest:

----------

_Afro-American_ [Baltimore MD], 7 May 1938: p. 9:

<<[title] MRS. HOWE KEPT HER LUNCHEON AU LAIT / .... Some students of
Hampton Institute and even members of the faculty felt that the luncheon
given by President and Mrs. Arthur Howe of Hampton Institute to Mrs. F.
D. Roosevelt last week was intentionally limited to white guests,
although Hampton is a colored school and has a mixed faculty. / "The
very idea," one woman exclaimed. / ....>>
