story.
He began his career as an Okla-
homa wrangler, went on to be-
come a Dallas lawyer, CPA' and
top-bracket financier. His mil-
lions are spread among tremen-
dous real estate and oil holdings,
three insurance companies and a
controlling interest in Braniff Al-
ways.
His first whirl at politics seems
destined for success too. He is
a friend, not only of outgoing Gov.
Shivers, who made the 11th hour
annointment. but alsoDf new Gov.
Price Daniel, Senator Majority
Leader Lyndon Johnson and Pre-
sident Eisenhower.
_ Blakely said he will vote with
mended pay raises for teachers
and state employes, local decis-
ions on school segregation, in-
creased old age pensions, abolition
of dual banking-insurance opera-
tions, more money for insurance
law enforcement, improved penal
statutes for insurance and secur-
ity controls, use of state funds
for advertising and upping work-
men’s compensation benefits.
He said he favors a $5,000,000
prison building program, a paid
adult parole system, laws to curb
juvenile crime, revison of tije state (
constitution, a oontimied state
office building program (includ-
ing an archives building), improv-
ed narcotics laws, study of the
needs of the handicapped, elec-
tion law changes and long-range
study of the state tax structure.

THURSDAY-FRIDAY-SATURDAY
Steakley Sworn In
First executive appointment ap-
proved by the senate was Austin
Attorney Zollie Steakley, Gov.
Daniel’s choice for secretary of
state.
Steakley’s swearing-in by Chief J
Justice John E. Hickman followed
within 24 hours. It was the new I
streamlined oath authorized by one
of last November’s constitutional
amendments.
Quipped Governor Daniel, a
spectator; “I’m glad they left out
that part about never fighting a
duel, because I’ve almost had to
do some of that recently.”
Steakley’s immediate predeces-
sor, Tom Reavley, has joined an
Austin law firm to be known now
as Powell, Rauhut, McGinnis and
Reavely.
