Texas and Arkansas did very
well at football but Baylor Uni-
versity is the home of a cham-
pionship team too, speaker R.
G. Winchester reminded the
Yoakum Lions audience Tues-
day while filling an appointment
as program speaker. Baylor has
consistently held the Badminton
championship he said.
His observations also includ-
ed mention of the favorite colors
for men this season, green and
gold. He quoted other U S. sta-
tistics in a revue of events of
the 1960 s.
“The silent majority is not
really silent.” he observed.
“They have 54 million phono-
graphs, about 100 million TV
sets and 90 million radios ..."
Concerning Yoakum, Mr. Win-
chester listed improvements of
the past decade: Two new con-
ubie projects brought to reality:
La Mancha and Jackson Fa/'.m
Machinery all new alongside
Highway 77-A in Yoakum, and’
the Eddy Packing Company con-
struction going on near the air-
port.
In sports, both high schools
went above district honors.
Developments across the na-
tion were also mentioned in the
former principal’s report of the
sixties:
Color TV came into promi-
nence so that there were now
20 million color sets as com-
pared with more than 64 mil-
lion black and white TV’s.
Instant re-plays of important
activity in athletics games made
it tough on officials in case of
wrong decisions.
More students became involv*
ed *« violent attacks on proper-
ty .. . Hippies of the sixties
became defiant towards authori-
ty and morality, with loud music
and shouted obscenities for their
chief characteristics.
Rioting college students be-
came no more sensible than ir.
mates of an asylum asking that
full authority be turned over to
them.
Long hair became the style
for men (because everyone
must do as the British Beatles
do in order to be in style.)
Crime and corruption, low
morals, integration, over-popu-
lation, air and water pollution
were prime topics for news of
the sixties.
In the field of transportation,
there were remarkable develop-
