INTERNATIONAL SET .
. The city Reception for
Prime Minister of Ireland Sean F. and Mrs. Lemas
was delightful, what with bagpipes, Irish uniforms
and all. Mrs. Wagner is “just a living doll’*, whom
everybody adores! However I was shocked to find
only four of “us” there. I thought “we” loved the
Irish! I must check with Ambassador Richard Patter*
son to find out why only four of “us” showed up! .
The Roy Wilkinses vacationed in quaint Quebec
and enjoyed the Autumn scenery up through New
England and Canada . . .
Evelyn Broidy, the only FULL TIME volunteer I
know in New York City is vacationing from her “job”
—the National Urban League (lucky, lucky agency!)—
by meandering around Europe for a spell . . .
NEW YORKERS ARE SAYING . . . Does beauty-
brains-and-talent Charlotte Holloman have some plans
in addition to studying in Italy this season? . . .
Folks still chuckling about those who refused
invitations to that Josephine Baker party downtown
:Seems like everybody loves the hostess but the host
Is sort of tabu. Dear me! . . .
SCENE AND HEARD . . . Among “us” who went on
that Women’s City Club junket to the first affair held
last week at the Top of the Fair Restaurant was
Sissie Marshall (Mrs. Thurgood), Marie Scruggs, and
Marietta Dockery . . .
Dolores Worthington, who belongs to Robert is
the newest member of the popular Vivants club of
which Fannie Grant is at the helm for this year .

you see any lines out in front of Miss Morgan’s place,
it’s probably because she has some wigs that you can

YW Annual
Meeting
.‘‘If the activities of the past
twelve months in civil rights have
done nothing more, they should
at least have convinced all of us
that this is not an issue which
can be ignored or lightly dismiss
ed.’’
Whitney M. Young, Jr., execu
tive director of the National Ur
ban League, told the guests at
the annual luncheon of the YWC\'
of the City of New York given
last Wednesday at the Waldorf-
Astoria Hotel.
Referring to the civil rights
movement, Mr. Young stated,
“thia Is a determined, grass-roots
ferment which is neither manu
factured by organizations or lead
ers. nor can be stopped by them.
The Issue before us. therefore,
is how can we, as intelligent hu
man beings, given Ibis increased
aspiration, energy and impatience
the intelligent guidance and dir
ection necessary so that all con
cerned will be benefited.’’
Equality nr Slavery
Continuing, Mr. Young stated,
It zhould be obvious to all of
us that this Is not a peculiar
phenomenon of 1963: rather the
thrust Is one which wlH be with
us either until the goal of true
Negro citizen it completely en
slaved
The luncheon marked the laun
ching of the citywide 1963 drive
to raise $360,000 to cover 13
percent of the Association's
yearly budget which provides pro
grams and services for approxi
mately lOO.OOO persons.
The annuai report for the
1962-63 program year was re
leased at the luncheon. High
lights included completion of a
major survey of YWCA build
ings as the first step toward long
range development and rehabil
i tat ion; the start of renovations
considered of top priority; and
YWCA sponsorship ot a new com
munity Center at the Drew-Ham
