BALTIMORE, Md., Jan. 14,-- A check for $1,000: was presented by the Baltimore 

chapter of the Frontiers Club here Tuesday, January 12, to the NAACP Legal Defense 

Fund. The presentation, at a luncheon meeting of the club at the Druid Hill yea, 

was made by Dr, Lucius Butler, outgoing president, to Roy Wilkins of the NAACP nation- 

al office. Dr. Butler said the Baltimore chapter was making the contribution in ap- 

preciation of the work the NAACP has been doing, especially the legal attack on segre- 

gation in the public schools. In his response, Mr. Wilkins outlined the extensive 

campaign being carried on in the Fight for Freedom drive now underway with the ob- 

jective of eliminating all race discrimination by 1963, the 100th anniversary of 

Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation,
