Texas civil rights leader dies at 83 Associated Press DALLAS — Juanita Jewel Craft, described by one associate as a “liv ing legend” for the civil rights movement in Texas, has died at the age of 83. Craft died Tuesday at a local hos pital after being in failing health in recent months. The granddaughter of a slave, she helped found 180 chapters of the National Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People and spearheaded desegregation of pub lic facilities and schools. “Don’t call me a color,” she once said. “Call me a human being.” The first black woman elected to the Dallas City Council, she served two terms in that post while continu ing to fight city hall over what she considered inequities. Craft became active in the civil rights movement in 1927 when she was barred from voting in the Dem ocratic primary. She sued and won, eventually becoming the first black woman in Texas to vote absentee in the party primary. Craft joined the NAACP in 1935 and was elected to its national board six years later. She traveled through out the Southwest, helping organize NAACP chapters. In 1955, she and her NAACP youth group picketed the State Fair of Texas, which only admitted blacks one day a year on “Negro Day.” Af ter the fair, Craft also Ted pickets at downtown Dallas movie theaters and lunch counters. Though she had no children of her own from her two marriages, she was a founder of the Dallas Youth Council. “I have no natural children,” she said in 1981. “I have adopted the world.” . In recent years she expressed dis appointment with the attitudes of young people toward the battles she had launched. “I’m disappointed that we’ve opened the shcools, yet those people who got their higher education are doing little for the community,” she said in one interview. “They’re just working for them selves. These people who have nice homes, they just stay in those nice homes and do little for the commu nity. I don’t understand it.” She was active in politics most of her adult life and was 73 when she was elected to her first term on the city council in 1975. “My philosophy is that politics controls the air you breathe,” she once said. Craft was born in Round Rock and was graduated from Prairie View A&M University in 1921. When she came to Dallas in 1925, she worked as a hotel maid. In 1968, she was awarded the city’s highest honor for civic work, the Linz Award.

Fertility Baylor prof says protein may ploy role in mole infertility Associated Press HOUSTON — A researcher at Baylor College of Medicine said he has discovered a protein that may play a role in one type of infertility in men. Steven D. Holmes, an assistant professor of urology at Baylor, iden tified a protein secreted by cells in the testes of the male rat that may stimulate development of germs in sperm cells, a process called sperma togenesis. Holmes also is doing studies to de velop a test for the amount of this protein in males. “A lack of this protein, called ser- toli cell secreted growth factor, may be responsible for some cases of in fertility in men,” Holmes said in a statement issued by Baylor. His findings were reported this week at a meeting in Los Angeles of the International Society of Devel opmental Biologists. Statistics show the 15 percent of American couples are infertile. The male is a factor in about half of the cases. One of the causes of male infertil ity is an arrested development of sperm in the blood-testes barrier, a structure in the testes which protects germ cells from blood products such as antibodies, Holmes said. The blood-testes barrier is formed by sertoli cells — described as the “nurse” cells, which provide nou rishment for developing germ cells. Part of the noin diment might be the growth facn Holmes found se creted by sertol 1 -Imes said a lack of this growm may cause an arrested sperm cel levelopment. The development perm begins in the large mass of narrow, coiled tubules inside each testis. 24 hr.
