Mr. Joseph P. Yeldell was born in Washington, D.C., in 1932. He received his education in the public schools of the District of Columbia, graduating from Cardozo High School in 1950. In the fall of 1950, Mr. Yeldell entered the District of Columbia Teachers College; however, he left prior to completion to enlist in the U.S. Air Force. He served in the Air Force for a little over four years, one year of which was served in Korea and Japan. While in the Air Force and stationed at Bolling Air Force Base in Washington, D.C., Mr. Yeldell, under the Air Force's Operation Bootstrap Program, returned to D.C. Teacher's College, receiving his Bachelor's degree in Mathematics in June of 1957. Mr. Yeldell was honorably separated from the Air Force in September of 1958. Upon completion of his Air Force enlistment, Mr. Yeldell accepted a teaching position with the Pittsburgh Public School System as a teacher of mathematics at the John Conroy Junior High School. Concurrently he enrolled in the University of Pittsburgh Graduate School. While at Conroy he eventually became the senior mathematics teacher in charge of the mathematics enrichment program. He also completed the requirements for his Master's degree in Secondary Education in August of 1961. He resigned from the Pittsburgh School System in June, 1961, and accepted a position with the District of Columbia Public School System as a teacher of senior high school mathematics at the Calvin Coolidge High School. Mr. Yeldell, following a strong desire to enter the "world of computers and data processing", resigned from the D.C. School System in 1962, and accepted a position as a mathematical statistician with the Division of Data Systems Research and Development, Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor. While with the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Mr. Yeldell used the computer to define and solve economic labor problems. He wrote statistical programs for the IBM 1401 and 7070/74 data processing systems. He implemented and coordinated all FORTRAN programming for the Division. He also began the work to prepare a set of statistical programs to tie into the Division's Information Retrieval System. During his career with the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Mr. Yeldell received a Departmental Incentive Award for his work in coordinating and running all programs on both the 1401 and 7074 computers involved in the preparation by computers of the Bureau of Labor Statistics publication— "Employment and Earnings Statistics." In January, 1964, Mr. Yeldell left the Bureau of Labor Statistics and accepted a position with the IBM Corporation in Washington, D.C. as a sales trainee. After completion of his training some fourteen months later, Mr. Yeldell was assigned as a marketing representative to the then Civil Programs of the GEM Region. The IBM Marketing Representative is looked to as a professional in the field of data processing, a consultant to management on information-handling problems. He is the catalyst that fosters interaction between industry and the computer. As such, he is the agent of change in a changing world, and his ideas and decisions will affect and contribute to the direction of future business practices. He is the key person in IBM's service to its customers, for he has the responsibility for planning and for making decisions, as well as the exceptional opportunity to learn about many different industries and how they manage their businesses. To customers, therefore, he is a valued consultant and problem solver, whose ideas are welcome and whose recommendations are generally followed. The IBM Marketing Representative must be intellectual, imaginative, and possess a strong sense of personal integrity. Some agencies to which Mr. Yeldell has been assigned as the marketing representative are the Veterans Administration, the Civil Service Commission, the Selective Service System, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Bureau of the Budget, the Howard University, Gallaudet College, the Office of Education, the National Institute of Mental Health, and the National Institutes of Health. Mr. Yeldell's present assignment at IBM is the Assistant for Planning, Regional Field Systems Center. In this position, he has the responsibility for developing plans to satisfy the education, field support, and system usage demands which are placed on the Field Systems Center by the districts it serves directly and by the region as secondary support to all branch offices. He also is respousible for coordinating the Field Systems Center plans with the internal IBM departments effected. In addition to discharging staff responsibility to the Field Systems Center Manager, the Assistant for Planning will: (1) Forecast the system usage for proposal activity. (2) Forecast the system usage for customer test. (3) Forecast the system usage for all GEM education activity. (4) Forecast the system usage for Datacenter sales. (5) Advise the Federal Systems Center Manager concerning proper systems mix to satisfy system usage requirements. (6) Make branch office calls and presentations to establish forecasts and to follow up on lagging areas of use. (7) Order and expedite the agreed-upon systems or devices on a timely basis. Along with his job assignments at IBM, Mr. Yeldell has found the time to pursue his love of teaching with various positions at Howard University. He has been a lecturer in the Department of Physics and at present is a mathematics teacher in the Pre-College Center. This latter psoition is particularly gratifying to Mr. Yeldell in that it combines the teaching of mathematics with the opportunity to help children from underprivileged homes to begin to think seriously about acquiring a college education. Mr. Yeldell has consistently maintained an interest in community activities. While in Pittsburgh, Pa., he reactivated the "Hi-Y" Club at Conroy Junior High School-in association with the local Y. M. C. A.-and started many worthwhile projects with the students of the Manchester district of Pittsburgh. He was also an active member of the Mathematics Council of Western Pennsylvania, the Pennsylvania Education Association, the University of Pittsburgh Alumni Association, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the Brown Chapel AME Church. Upon his return to his native Washington, D.C., Mr. Yeldell resumed his community work. He rejoined the Turner Memorial AME Church. While teaching he was an active member of the D.C. Education Association, the District of Columbia Teachers College Alumni, the Graduate Chapter of the National Honor Society, the National Education Association, the Phi Beta Sigma Social Fraternity, the NAACP and the URBAN League. He also founded and has remained very active with the Entrepreneurs, Inc.-a group of ten young men dedicated to aiding themselves and the Negro of Washington through economic and educational means. Mr. Yeldell has maintained his strong desires for the improvement of the educational process in Washington by working very closely with Dr. E. L. Hayner, President of the D.C. Board of Education, in pursuit of the abolition of the "track system" method of ability grouping practiced in D.C. Schools. He made several statements before the Board of Education relative to his position on this extremely controversial subject. In addition to all his work and civic interests, Mr. Yeldell still finds time to devote to his wife, the former Gladys Johnson of Pittsburgh, Pa., and his two daughters, Gayle and Joi Lynn. IX.
