San Jose hires black
asst. athletic director
By The Associated Press
0 SAN JOSE, Calif. - San Jose State College yesterday named
Lang Stanley, a Negro, as assistant athletic director.
Recently most of the school's Negro athletes presented a list of
demands, one of which was that a member of their race be named an
assistant to athletic director Bob Bronzan.
San Jose's athletic program has been beset by racial problems
this school year.
Seven Negro football players refused to play against Briglam
Young and lost their scholarships, then three Negro basketball play-
ers refused to play for several games in sympathy with the football
players..
The players who lost their scholarships since have been told they
will regain them in the spring.
