Teenager Mary White, of Emporia, worked a century ago to help the needy and campaign for Black students and white students at her school to be treated equally.
This week s History Guy video at CJOnline focuses on Mary, the daughter of nationally known Emporia Gazette editor William Allen White.
Mary was the subject of a widely read eulogy written by her father after her death 100 years ago next week on May 13, 1921, one month shy of her 17th birthday and three days after her head accidentally struck a low-hanging tree limb as she rode a horse.
When Mary was born in 1904 in Emporia, about 50 miles southwest of Topeka, her father had already spent nine years as editor of the Gazette and become widely known as an unofficial spokesman for Middle America.
Pamela Melroy, a 1979 Bishop Kearney High School graduate who became the third woman to pilot a space shuttle mission and the second to command one, has been nominated by President Joe Biden to help lead NASA.
Two months after taking office, Biden nominated Sen. Bill Nelson to head up the space agency. On Friday, he put forward retired astronaut Melroy for the No. 2 spot.
“It’s a great honor to be nominated by President Biden to support Senator Nelson and help lead NASA. The agency is critical in America’s fight to combat climate change and maintain leadership in space,” Melroy said in a statement.
