icated athlete must do if he ex-

In conclusion, 'Hill congratu-
lated Taylor for being that
championship cause around
whom the town could rally for
a genuine expression of broth-
erhood. He suggested that
sports had a history of being
such a catalyst. He reminded
the audience that if Slack and
White, men and women, old and
young, youths and. 'adults can
meet in a expression of love
and adulation, why could it not
be done for problems.
With profoundly and wit, Hill
| continued his message as if he
were lacing the crowd through
his fingers. He called attention
to the “down home” "manner
used by toastmaster .Rev. M.
H. Rorens, suggesting that it
reminded him of a country
church service. Kill added, “I
just hope I can get out of here
before he decides to pass the
collection plate.”
It was acknowledged later
that because of his great es-
teem for the youthful, unpre-
tentious Taylor, that Hill had
asked TOM for a waiver of his
usual speaking fees.
When his time came for an
expression of gratitude, Taylor
seemed awed and impressed by
it all. At moments he appeared
startled by the strobes and
klieg lights which dotted this
completely new Harvey Hall as
the professional newsmen went
about their duties. The tenor of.
his thought was that he was
deeply touched by the thoughts
and expressions of residents in
the city of Tyler and also at
other institutions where he had
gone recently to hear his name
praised.
With Taylor at the main table
were his wife, the former Mary
Simon of Longview, Texas and
his mother, Mrs. Eddie Doll
Taylor. Other members of Tay-
lor’s immediate family are: sis-
ters, Gwendolyn, 22; Jacquelyn,
16; and brothers, Peter, 19; El-
vin, 14; and Arthur, ID.

VEHICLE IN MOTHBALLS?
If you’re putting your recre-
ational vehicle in mothballs for
awhile, the Tire Industry Safe-
ty Council recommends taking
the weight off the tires. Put the
vehicle up on blocks. If possible1,
remove the wheel assemblies
and store in a cool, dry place
away from sunlight, reducing
the air pressure to ten pounds.
