Urban historian Wade
third Bingham professor and
UL's first in the field
By Bolly Pop4~
Americans are commit.ing national
suicide by placing the burden of inte­gration
on the whites least able to
bear it, according to Dr. Richard C.
Wade, professor of urban studies.
Dr. Wade, the third University of
Louisville Bingham Professor and the
first in the field of urban studies, ad­dressed
his remarks to some 70 stu­dents
and faculty members at the first
open meeting of Phi Sigma Delta, his­tory
honorary society, Tuesday night.
Dr. Wade, who also is professor of
urban studies at the Univ4ersity of Chi­cago,
is a nationally recognized author­ity
on the problems of American cities.
In addition to teaching at both the
Universities of Chicago and Louisville
this semester, Dr. Wade is working on
a third book, "The City in American
History." Projected publication of the
work is "in one or two years," accord­ing
to Dr. Wade.
While Dr. Wade is in Louisville he
is working on material for the book by
researching Louisville's history from
1865 to 1920.
The work requires careful research
in old manuscripts and documents, but
Dr. Wade has not lost touch with the
campus atmosphere by keeping his nose
in dusty books all day.
He has, for instance, noticed the dif­ferences
between the two campuses he
is teaching on. "At the University of
Chicago most of the students are grad­uate
students. It's good to see youth
again here."
Speaking on the topic of "The Urban
Crisis," Dr. Wade outlined two causal
factors which he feels are responsible
for the manifold problems in American
cities today.
These causal factors are, according
to Dr. Wade, "something new in Amer­ican
society."
"Housing, transportation, education,
family and economic problems have
been present as since the first cities
began to take shape," Dr. Wade said,
"but this is not generally acknowledged
in the press or by the public."
"We analyze our cities today in terms
which have become cliches," he added.
"We talk of the central city decaying,
of neighborhoods declining and of the
central city being overcome by the
poor, chiefly Negroes. We think in
terms of the death of cities.
Thf~ five court members will be
presented to the football team
Monday, Oct. 16 in Bigelow Hall.
From these candidates the team
will choose a queen.
This year the winner of the
Homecoming crown will be an­nounced
at the bonfire pep rally
on 1"riday night, Homecoming
eve. The queen will be crowned
at the Saturday afternoon foot­ball
game, and presented at the
Homecoming Dance that evening.
In the past the Homecoming
Queen and her court were an­noun'ced
at the game.
Last year's Homecoming Queen
was Miss Andrea van Deusen,
now a junior Arts & Sciences stu­dent.
The polls for the election to­day
will be open from 9:00 a.m.
to 3:00p.m.

The author of two books, "The Urban
Frontier," a study of five western cities
from 1800 to 1830, and ''Slavery in the
Cities," Dr. Wade is making Louisville
his home for three days a week and
commuting via airline to his Hyde
Park, Chicago, home for four days. Actually Dr. Wade has little oppor­tunity
to lose contact with the stu­dents
here. h1 addition to the two
"In fact," he continued, "when a
book appeared on the sickness of the
cities I felt it was the first optimistic
thing I'd seen.

But Dr. Wade does not see commut­ing
as a problem. "There are students

Louisville who must travel a longer.

one on American cities, he also has
numerous speaking engagements sched­uled,
