    A. B. “HAPPY” CHANDLER AND THE POLITICS OF CIVIL RIGHTS by JOHN PAUL HILL (Under the Direction of James C. Cobb) ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the complex civil rights views of Albert Benjamin “Happy” Chandler, one of Kentucky’s most controversial and charismatic politicians of the twentieth century. To offer perspective on his positions, this study focuses on Chandler’s statements and actions during several important periods in civil rights history. Chandler served two terms as governor (1935-1939, 1955-1959). During the first, the NAACP launched its first concerted campaign to desegregate the University of Kentucky. During the second, whites in two western Kentucky communities violently protested efforts to desegregate local schools in compliance with the Supreme Court’s landmark Brown v. Board of Education decision. Between his two terms as governor, Chandler served six years in the United States Senate (1939-1945) and six years as commissioner of Major League Baseball (1945-1951). As a member of the Senate, Chandler voted on antilynching legislation and on two bills designed to eliminate the poll tax in state and federal elections. During his term as commissioner, the game’s entrenched, longstanding ban on interracial play collapsed when Jackie Robinson took the field for the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947. In 1968, nine years after he had last held elective office, Chandler nearly became the running mate of George C. Wallace, the arch-segregationist former governor of Alabama who was pursuing the presidency under the banner of the American Independent Party. Despite his flirtation with Wallace, Chandler’s overall handling of the important civil rights matters of the day clearly distinguished him from most of his southern political colleagues.

  • The Joseph W. Doron Family House – Built 1889 –
    The Joseph W. Doron family house – Built 1889 – The Doron House is listed on the Ohio Historic Inventory1 and the inventory documents state: “This is a fine and rare (in Hamilton) example of Shingle style architecture”. The Inventory documents also state that the house is eligible for inclusion in the National Historic Register and we intend to file the paperwork to have the house added to the national registry in the near future. A May 1986 Hamilton City Planning Department book titled Hamilton, Ohio Its Architecture and History also states the house is a rare shingle-style Victorian house and that the Joseph Doron family was responsible for building all of the very rare shingle-style houses in the city of Hamilton2. 1 Ohio Historic Inventory No. BUT-606-9 2 pages 170-171 Hamilton, Ohio Its Architecture and History (Hamilton City Planning Department May 1986) Page 1 of 20 pages The house sits near the top of “Prospect Hill” as referred to in historic literature but a city plat book in Hamilton’s Lane Library shows this area as “Doron’s Addition” and the area north and east as “Prospect Hill”. There is also conflicting information about who first developed “Prospect Hill”. A local historian wrote that Peter Thomson, founder of Champion Paper Co., bought the Thomas Rhea farm on “Prospect Hill” and the city council accepted his plat for “Prospect Hill” in 1891. This contradicts the fact that years earlier Joseph Doron had already started building on “Prospect Hill”! A historical reference3 we found clearly stated “The land on Prospect Hill was originally owned by Stephen Hughes and later by Asa Shuler from whom Joseph Doron purchased the entire thirty-five lots of which he built on and sold most with the exception of five lots”.
