“Serving Texas Aggies”
The seemingly endless struggle
between John Connally and Jack
Cox comes to a climax next Tues
day when Texans go to the polls
to elect the state’s next governor.
Democrat Connally and Repub
lican Cox have been campaigning
since long before last spring’s pri
maries in one of the state’s first
genuine two-party campaigns.
They will be joined on the ballot
by Houstonian Jack Carswell, the
Constitution party candidate for
the governor’s chair.
Connally, 4.5, defeated five others
in the Democratic primary, but
edged run-off opponent Don Yar
borough by only 26,000 votes. Cox
was an easy winner over run-off
opponent Roy Whittenberg and at
tracted 600,000 votes as a Demo
cratic primary opponent of Gov.
Price Daniel in 1961
Carswell, a 39-year-old funeral
home operator, did not participate
in a primary. He is one of two
Constitution party candidates on
the general election ballot, being
joined by comptroller candidate
Joseph Rummler.
STATE SEN. Preston Smith of
Lubbock is meeting O. W. (Bill)
Hayes in the lieutenant governor’s
race, Waggoner Carr is facing T.
Everton Kennerly for attorney
general, Jerry Sadler and Albert
B. Fay are competing for land
commissioner, Ben Ramsey is
meeting Bernold M. Hanson for
a railroad commission position,
John C. White and Harry Hubbard
are vying for agriculture commis
sioner, Robert S. Calvert, Mrs.
Hargrove Smith and Rummler are
on the ballot for state comptroller,
and Joe Pool is meeting Dsmond
Barry for congressman-at-large.
Smith, Carr, Sadler, Ramsey,
White, Calvert and Pool are Demo
crats, Rummler belongs to the
Constitution party and the others
are Republicans.
Throughout the state informal
surveys have indicated a close race
for many of the positions, especi
ally for the governor’s post. The
Belden poll, Texas’ equivalent to
the Gallup poll, shows Connally
in the lead, but indicates full Dem
ocratic support on election day
will be necessary to keep him
there.
MOST OBSERVERS have
agreed with the poll that a light
voter turnout might swing the
margin over to Cox.
GOP congressman-at-large can
didate Desmond Barry is given the
second best chance behind Cox of
taking a win. Other Republicans
expected to run close races are
Pool, Hayes, and Fay.
A regional breakdown shows
Connally’s biggest support in East
Texas, while Cox is expected to
lead in West Texas. All other
areas of the state, the upper Gulf
Coast, South Texas, Central Texas
and North Texas, are expected to
give Connally a small edge.
The pivotal region may prove
to be North Texas, where Cox is
showing considerable strength.
Dallas, Fort Worth and Wichita
Fall may decide the election, with
voter turnout looming a vital fac
tor.
BRAZOS COUNTY, like most of
Central Texas, is expected to back
Connally, though by a small mar
gin. The A&M faculty vote, which
is usually Republican, will prob
ably favor Cox.
Connally, who resigned as Pres
ident Kennedy’s Secretary of the
Navy, is running on the basic plat
form adopted at the state Demo
cratic convention. These points
include:
1. “To make Texas first in edu
cation, first in industrialization
and first in opportunity for all
citizens.
2. “To promote economy, effi
ciency and government reorganiza
tion.
3. “To improve public health and
welfare, particularly in the realm
of mental health.
4. “To encourage tourism
through improvement of state
parks and development of a pro
fessionally administered program.
5. “To strengthen law enforce
ment.”
COX HAS emphasized the “two-
party state” doctrine and added
the following platform planks:
1. “Election reform.
3. “Strong, new, aggressive lead
ership.
3. “Holding the line on taxes
and full industrial development.
4. “That Connally is an agent
of Vice President Lyndon Johnson.
5. “Sounder economic govern
ment spending
Carswell, who has lost races for
city councilman in Houston on two
occasions, is advocating the fol
lowing platform:
1. “Repeal of the sales tax, cut
ting off foreign oil imports and
increasing domestic oil production.
2. “Repeal of the urban renewal
act.
3. “Revision of the mental health
code.
4. “Establishing a tax program
based on unimproved land values
and in relation to the population
and area.”
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR
nominee Smith is advocating a
boost in state tourism, new indus
try and less government costs and
taxes. His GOP opponent Hayes
advocates the formation of a little
Hoover Commission to control the
state economy. He also favors
lowering the state sales tax.
Carr is running on only one
plank—“s trengthening legal
framework wherever it is needed
and vigorous enforcement of all
state laws.” His opponent Ken
nerly, who was nominated by
write-in, is a life-long Republican
with a long law career.
Sadler, White and Calvert are
Democratic incumbents expecting
little difficulty in reclaiming their
positions.

Assignment: build
the "grease twn
into our earn
We went to the mountain to
make 1963 Ford-built cars
go 30,000 to 100,000
miles between major
chassis lubrications
Quite a task faced Ford Motor Company
engineers when they set out to eliminate the
traditional trip to the grease rack every
1,000 miles.
Like Mohammed, they went to the mountain—
Bartlett Mountain on the Continental Divide in
Colorado. More molybdenite is mined there
than in the rest of the world combined. And
from molybdenite ore comes the amazing
“moly” grease that helps extend the chassis
lubrication intervals for Ford-built cars. This
grease sticks tenaciously to metal, stands up
under extreme pressures and resists moisture,
pounding and squeezing. It is slicker than
skates on ice!
New, improved seals were developed. Bushings,
bearings and washers of many materials were
investigated. Slippery synthetics, like nylon
and teflon, were used a number of new ways.
The search for means to extend chassis lubri
cation also led to New Orleans-where
experimental suspension ball joints tested in
taxicabs in regular service went two years
without relubrication.
It took time. And ingenuity. But the effort paid
off when Ford-built cars were the first to build
in chassis lubrication good for 30,000 miles or
two years—whichever came first.
Another assignment completed —another
“Ford First" and another example of how Ford
