Signals Safety Campaign Opening
Governor Makes Sunday
Safety Sunday’ in Texas
Sunday has been designated by
Governor Price Daniel as “Safety
Sunday” in Texas to signal the
opening of the Christmas-New
Yeai’’s holiday traffic safety cam
paign throughout the state.
The governor’s proclamation
said efforts “to end death and de
struction on the streets and high
ways of Texas will not fully suc
ceed until each driver comes to re
alize that traffic safety is a spir
itual concern.”
AF Announces
New Pilot Program
c)
Students may now apply for avi
ation cadet training or Air Force
Officer Training School and have
their applications processed during
the Christmas holidays.
Training availability dates, which
must be within one year after
graduation, may be indicated on
the application.
A processing period for aviation
cadet and Officer Training School
applicants will be held at Randolph
Air Force Bhce Dec. 21, according
to M/Sgt. Ray Wagner, Bryan
area Air Force recruiter. Appli
cations must be submitted immed
iately in order to be eligible for
this processing period.
Further information may be ob
tained by writing to M/Sgt. Ray
Wagner, Air Force Recruiting Of
fice, Box 5, Room 3, Post Office
Bldg., Bryan. Information may also
be obtained by calling TA 2-3061
in Bryan.
Aviation Cadets is a program
for training pilots and navigators
and is open to single male high
school graduates between the ages
of 19 and 26%. Officer Training
School is open to both male and
female college graduates and col
lege seniors who are within 135
days of graduation. These appli
cants must be between the ages
of 19 and 27%. This program of
fers commissions in administra
tive and technical fields.
The governor urged each citizen
to help “awaken in the conscience
and mind of every driver the re
alization that negligence at the
wheel of an automobile is a trans
gression of God’s Own Command,
‘Thou Shalt Not Kill.’” He also
asked the assistance of every pas
tor in Texas by reminding each
church member of his moral re
sponsibility in obeying the traffic
laws.
Numerous organizations have al
ready pledged their support of the
annual campaign to reduce the
holiday highway slaughter. In an
ticipation of the Department of
Public Safety’s annual prediction
of holiday deaths, a statewide
program is now getting under way
through the coordination of the
Texas Traffic Safety Council, the
state’s official unit, the Governor’s
Highway Safety Commission and
the Texas Safety Assn.
Members of tiie Outdoor Adver
tising Assn, of Texas and other
outdoor poster firms have con
tributed space for about 800 high
way signs which will carry the
Governor’s holiday safety mes
sage, “Don’t Let A Collision Spoil
Your Holiday.” The posters were
contributed by organizations and
individuals interested in the Texas
traffic safety movement.
“Last Christmas, “Governor
Daniel recalled, “the tremendous
effort put forth in behalf of traf
fic safety during the holiday sea
son saved one-third of the lives
expected to be lost. The pi’ediction
anticipated 95 deaths; there were
actually 63 deaths. If Texans can
do this once, they can do it again,
and I am certain we will again re
ceive the same fine cooperation
from everyone that helped bring
about the major reduction last
year.”
But he reminded Texans that
traffic deaths are up about 6 per
cent for the first ten months of
this year over the same period in
1958, and fatal crashes are up 9
per cent.
“Since December is always one
of our deadliest months, “the Gov
ernor concluded, “our campaign
will cover the whole month and
reach a climax during the holidays,
when human life should be more
precious to all of us because of
the special occasion we observe.”

Greener pastures
for Americas second largest telephone system.
Nowhere in the United States is the economic “grass” greener
than in the great agricultural areas of our nation. New farm
equipment has increased productivity. New home conven
iences have brought a higher standard of living, and demands
grow for an even better way of life.
Part of this better living has been the demand for more and
better Communications.
It follows that as these rural areas expand and prosper, so
does General Telephone. For these are the areas we serve.
In Wisconsin, for instance, dairy farms are producing more
milk of better quality from fewer cows. Wisconsin country
homes are bright and up to date. Their standard of living is
equal to or better than that of their city brothers.
In this one state, Gen Tel plans to spend more than $30 mil
lion in the next few years improving and increasing telephone
services and facilities.
This is a typical example of how we strive not only to meet
today’s communications needs—but to answer tomorrow’s.
