Gordon Arnold Quoted in Magazine
Story on Texas Export Potential
(EDITOR’S NOTE: the fol-
lowing excerpts are being re-
printed from a recent issue of
“Texas Parade” magazine which
quotes former Cliftonite Gordon
E. Arnold in an article entitled,
"Exports: Texas’ Billion-Dollar
Market.” Arnold is the son of
when he sang “Entreat Me Not
To Leave Thee.”
Given in marriage by her fa-
ther the bride wore a floor-
length wedding gown of peau de
soie which featured a chantilly
lace bodice with long sleeves,
trimmed at the waist and on the
train with appliqued seed pearl
flowers, and an overlay of scal-
loped lace trimmed with seed
pearls on the skirt. The gown
was designed and made by the
bride’s mother.
The bride’s elbow-length veil
of English illusion was held by
a tiara of seed pearls and drop
crystals. Included in her attire
for “something old” the bride
Chose a brooch which was worn
by her mother and grandmother
on their wedding; also “some-
thing blue”, “something borrow-
ed”, and “something new”.
She carried a cascade bouquet
of Stephanotis centered with a
yellow throated white orchid
from which flowed streamers of
white pecot-edged satin tied in
sweetheart knots.
Maid of honor was Miss Deb-
orah Oswald of San Saba, cousin
of the bride. Bridesmaids were
Misses Mitzi Johnson of Midland,
cousin of the groom, and
Anna Beth Ficklin of Valley Mills,
sister of the groom. The attend-
ants wore street-length light

lace bodice and chiffon skirt ov-
er satin. A satin bow enhanced

wrist-length gloves and white
shoes. Their headpieces were cir-
clets of veiling attached to roset-
tes. They carried long stemmed
white carnations.
Best man to the groom was
Clinton Surley of Granbury, a
cousin of the groom. Groomsmen
were Lloyd Hampe and Milton
Willmann of Clifton. Ushers were
Charles Billman and Darrel
Hinton.
The men in the wedding party
wore dark suits and all had white
carnation boutonnieres except the
groom who had a boutonniere of
Stephanotis.
The flower girl, Phyllis John-
son, of Midland, cousin of the
groom, carried a basket of gar-
denias from which flowed white
satin streamers. Ring bearer

Ficklin left for a wedding trip
__ south Texas. Both will be
sophomore students at Hill Jr.
College, Hillsboro, in the fall.
Mrs. George Arnold, 1415 W. 3rd
in Clifton.)
“A quick look around world
markets shows that the following
factors will dominate regional
scenes in terms of product types
and needs: In Western Europe,
the most pressing needs are for
labor saving devices, as the la-
bor shortage continues to be
chronically severe. . .
“. . . The huge mass of ex-
ports moving through Texas
ports, for example, originate not
only in Texas but throughout the
Midwest and Southern states.
“There is an answer, however,
to be found in an unpublished
master's degree thesis written by
a student at the Hankamer
School of Business at Baylor
University. In his approach to
the problem, Gordon E. Arnold
analyzes the characteristics of
those 'Texas manufacturers that
are now involved in exporting.
He applies his findings to those
firms not exporting and in doing
so points some ways to an expan-
sion of Texas manufacturing
business via the cultivation of
overseas markets.
“Researcher Arnold concludes
that a profile could be drawn
of the successful exporter which
would give the non exporter
some concept of how to deter-
mine his undeveloped potential.
A sidelight of the study indicates
for instance, that the age of the
firm has a direct relation. . . the
younger firm, agressively
searching out new markets, that
makes a success of exporting. .”
