What can the American
nation learn from this elec-
tion? What can the rest of
the world conclude?
For Americans, one of the,
great lessons may.be that to
depart from the traditional,
deeply rooted path of politi-
cal moderation bears great
dangers. The Johnson land-
slide, resulting from the
Gold water nomination, has
grievously damaged two-
party government in much
of the nation. Only restraint
on the part of the victors
will preserve balanced
power. But, as. in 1936, bal-
ance could soon be restored.
For the world, the steadi-
ness of Americans in pursuit
of the goals’they have fol-
lowed for a quarter of a cen-
tury is reaffirmed. A great
wave of relief now arises
from many nations.
> > >
The ardent minority
which supported Senator
Goldwater has most to pon-
der today. Many of them up-
held him and voted for him
for the best of reasons. Only
a few—but they were very
vocal—really partook of ac-
tual extremism. The rest
were sincere, thoughtful,
dedicated people who be-
lieved in curbing the trend
toward ever bigger federal
government, who wished to
“win” over communism, who
were distrustful of President
Johnson’s political maneu-
vering?.
Th± test which the right-
wing elements in American
partisanship have long de-
sired has taken place. Its re-
sults prove that most citizens
of the republic are in the
vast middle ground of politi-
cal thought, where the Re-
publican and Democratic
parties have shared presi-
dential office almost equally
during this entire century.
Many of the people who
Voted for President Johnson
split their tickets and sup-
ported local Republicans.
Never before has a Republi-
can or Democratic nominee
run so far behind the rest
of his ticket as did the Ari-
zona Senator. But the mag-
nitude of the sweep removed
temporarily from public life
many useful Republicans,
most of them moderates. The
consequences will be felt in
both houses of Congress and

President Franklin Roose-
velt’s sweep in 1936 — the
most comparable election re-
sult in this century — was
soon followed by his effort to
alter the membership of the
Supreme Court. Congress re-
fused to follow him. But the
complexion of the court soon
changed through its own in-
ternaLprocesses.
President Johnson has
himself shown many signs of
political moderation and re-

Parade Best Ever
straint. He owes the magni-
tude of his victory (along-
side the limitations of his
opponent) to his appeal to
the vast middle ground. He
will lead the nation effec--
tively as he continues to be
the President of all the peo-
ple.
The United States is in-
stinctively a two-party na-
tion. Its parties, indeed,
always have been coalitions
balanced from within. The
first effort to “realign” them
into monolithic conservative
and liberal groups has led
to an adverse landslide.
Over all, Americans have
spoken with unmistakable
urgency. They want Moder-
ate government; not left-
wing or right-wing govern-
ment but steady, balanced
progress toward solution of
pressing problems.

High Science Department.
(Continued from page 1)
the actions of Election Judge Er-
nie Dietrich and his assistant
Richard Jones. They used their
experience to organize the lay-
out of the polling place so as to
prevent as much confusion as
possible.
And what I believe is more
important, they used poll work-
ers of all political views. When
the election judges were select-
ed, an effort was made to have
Democrats and Republicans both
inside the polling place. This
was certainly an improvement
and I'm sure helped to restore
confidence in our election pro-
cedures to all who voted.
After the election was over,
everyone had praise all the way
around for those of all parties
who worked. The watchers of
both parties were praised and in-
stead of being a drawback, their
presence contributed to the con-
fidence of the election results.
I am sure the losers, as well as
the winners, are better satisfied.
It is bad enough to lose, but to
be suspicious of whether the co-
unt was honest is a greater bur-
den than our citizens should
have to bear.
This vigilence at thg polling
place must be continued. I am
surethatif we continue these ef-
forts, the Hardin County Com-
missioner's Court will finally
give up and buy voting ma-
chines. Do not be under the im-
pression that voting machines
will insure a correct cpunt, but
they are easier to watch than 35
poll workers and they bring more
accurate counting. And, of
course, they are much more eco-
nomical and will pay for them-
selves.

Pictured above is the Carver High Homecoming Queen's
float. The Queen is Shirley Coleman.
Homecoming at George Wash-
ington Carver High School was a
colorful event. The theme was
"EducationrAn Endless Challenge".
An Alumni Breakfast was held
for the graduates and exstudents
in the Homemaking Department
at 5 P. M. Many graduates and
ex-students were here. From Bis-
hop College, Dallas, Texas were
Larry Christmas, Edward Thomp-
son, Earnest Martin, Barbara Biley,
and Robert L. Watson.
The paiade which began at 11
A. M. was one of the best. There
were bands from Woodville, Day-
ton, Kirbyville, Newton, and
Silsbee. The band from Woodville
won first place in marching. Their
majorettes did a magnificent
performance.
Each department of the school
entered a float or a car which
brought out the theme of the pa-
rade. For, the first time two new
ears were used in.the parade from
Carawy Motors and the- Ford
Company.of Silsbee.
Miss Carver, Shirley Kaye Cole-
man, and the three runner-ups
rode on the queen's float.
At 7:30 P. M. the game between
the Carver Pirates and the Carver
Eagles of Anahuac took place in
the Lion's stadium.
During halftime Shirley Kaye
Cole man, escorted by Wilford
Trahan, was crowned Miss Carver
by Pr i ncipal Joseph Scott. She
was presented flowers Therunner-
ups were Dessie Mae Milton, es-
corted by Dave McNeal; Deborah
Brannon, escorted by C. B. Gats on;
Beverly Barnes, escorted by Fred-
die Young. Each of them were
presented corsages.
Miss Barbara Jean Biley, a stu-
dent of Bishop College, Dallas,
Texas, was Miss Homecoming.
Barbara is the daughter of Mrs.
Edna Biley and a graduate of the
class of 1964. Her escort was Ro-
bert L; Watson, a student of Bis-
hop College and a graduate of
the class of 1962. She was pre-
sented flowers.
The game ended with the Pir-
ates’ defeat by the Eagles 24-22,
The Principal, Faculty and Stu-
dents wish to thank each one who
helped to make the affair a sue -
cess. Especially do we thank Car-
away Motors and the Ford Com-
pany of Silsbee for the use of their
cars in the parade.
Mrs. Margaret Snyder, execu-
tive director and physical thera-
pist and Mrs. Pat Ram, occupa-
tional terapist, both of the Ce-
rebral Palsy Foundation in Beau-
mont shared the program for the
Hardin County Society for'Crip-
pled Children and Adults at the
dinner meeting held in Silsbee
Thursday evening.
Mrs. Snyder told the group of
the techniques and equipment
used in treating crippled child-
ren and how each crippling con-
dition needs different types of
exercises and apparatus. The
crippling condition and extent of
: damage done through disease,
1 accident or a birth defect, deter-
| mines how much therapy and
j what type of exercises are need-
I ed. She works with small cere-
! bral palsied children in training
them for head balance, sitting
alone, crawling, standing, and
walking. Each step takes a long-
er period for progress than for a
normal child and therapy helps
them to attain each goal on the
road to rehabilitation.
Mrs. Ram explained the need
for carry-over in therapies as the
child progresses in each step.
She told of the feeding'program
of. the pre-schoolers as they are
trained for self-help in feeding,
in dressing himself and in other
daily activities. These steps are
accomplished through the use of
special aids and helps for the in-
dividual child, through the use
of educational toys and motiva-
tion through play, work and so-
cialization. Parents are instruct-
ed on therapy so they may help
carry on a home program for the
child.
Speech therapy is also an im-
portant phase of the training as
is special education. The child-
ren going to the Foundation re-
ceive all this as the child re-
quires. At the present there are
25 pre-schoolers receiving ther-
apies at the Foundation, there
are 12 resident children from
Mondays thru Fridays and most of
them are from surrounding coun-
ties. Also, a large number of
children from the age of a few
months to 18 years of age are out
patients.
Hardin County has three resi-
dents at the Foundation and Eas-
ter Seal funds have provided the-
rapy and care for some of them.
Pictures of the children were
shown and several children were
showed over a period of years -
going from braces and walkers
to independent walking, from
feeding classes and button.boards
to better use of hands and skills
they acquire in crafts and typing.
Mrs, Jess Odom, president of
Hardin Society presided and the
hospitality committee was Mrs.
J. L. Teel and Mrs. Leon Boyett.
