In the midst of trial and tribulation, under the warm California sun, Timo- thy Leary, self-appointed high priest of the LSD cult, urged thousands of young people to Turn on to the scene, tune into what's happening, and drop out-of high school, col- lege, grade school ... and follow me, the hard way, and immediately the year of love was well on its way. The young people who answered his call became known as hippies or flower children, and, in search of a new meaning for life, they turned to drugs, leisure, and love. San Fran- cisco's l-laight-Ashbury became the love capitol of the world as shabby- looking youngsters from coast to coast gathered to share their flower power with one another. ln cities across the country, groovy young people joined hands in love circles, gave one another daffodils and dai- sies, played their bongos, sang, or painted each other with bright col- ors. The real goals of the hippie move- ment remained unknown throughout the year, and after twelve months of love-mixed with fear, hate, and murder-the nightmare began to dissolve.

President John- son said American policy in Viet Nam would not be altered because of the secretary's departure. On December 3, the first success- ful transplant of a human heart was successfully performed in a Cape Town, South Africa, hospital. Dr. Christian Barnard, a specialist in open-heart surgery, headed a team of five surgeons in transplanting the heart of a young woman killed in an automobile accident into the body of 55-year-old Louis Washkansky, dying of heart damage. Washkansky died of pneumonia 18 days later. --my R.. Q f 4- 1 ff! all ww-il ,ff I :fig fn QI' vw,

The world was confronted with additional violence as a full-scale war between lsrael and the Arab states of Syria, Jordan, and the United Arab Republic broke out June 5. By the time a UN cease-fire went into effect June 10, Israel had attained a military victory that erased old boundaries and changed the balance of power in the Middle East. President Johnson became a Droud and happy grandfather for the first time June 21 as Lucy John- son Nugent gave birth to an 8- pound, 10-ounce baby boy, Patrick Lyndon, in Austin, Texas. Racial riots brought additional sor- row and heartache to Americans during the summer months. Among the cities hardest hit were Boston, Mass.: Tampa, Florida, Cincinnati 'llc FQ' and mature image in 67 and Dayton, Ohio, Buffalo, New York, Minneapolis, Minn., New l-la- ven, Conn., and Newark, New Jer- sey. Racial disturbances hit a height late in July as Detroit, Michigan, became the scene of mass rioting, looting, and killing which resulted in 41 deaths, 2,665 arrests, and H200 million in destruction. The uprising was the costliest race riot in the his- tory of the nation. In August, the news front moved northward where heavy rains brought severe flooding to Pair- banks, Alaska. Seven deaths were reported with damage exceeding S200 million. In September, teachers' strikes in five states kept more than 600,000 pupils out of school. Shirley Temple, child star of the 193O's, made a come-back in 1967- but this time she was in the political spotlight. l-ler decision to join the Republican congressional race in California drew wide-spread interest from coast to coast. l-ler return to the public eye was short-lived, how- ever, as she was defeated by Paul N. McCloskey in what has been termed a political upset. Meanwhile, the Beatles continued to rack up one record hit after an- other-but with a new look and with a distinctively new and far out musi cal sound Added to their popular mop heads were droopy French mustaches book wormish faces and bizarre clothing The album Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band was an immediate smash and although the change resulted in the loss of a few fans new fans were gained and their popularity lingered on TOP One time child actress Shirley Temple appears with her family during her campaign for Congress LEFT' A new look was added to a new sound as the Beatles searched for a new y ' v .

'Mi 1 Q 3 lil A Year of l-lippies, l-lea Twenty-four additional heart transplants were performed in nine different countries in the six-month period which followed Dr. Barnard's initial experiment. One of the great- est achievements in medical history, again involving Dr. Barnard, was the successful transplant of a new or- gan into the body of a dentist, Dr. Philip Blaiberg, 59. Within two months following the surgery, Dr. Blaiberg was driving his car on downtown shopping expeditions and was again living a normal life. Strikes by union members pre- sented problems during the period of June, 1967, through June of 1968, but none gained more public- ity than did the New York City sani- tation workers' strike. For nine days, the garbage piled up and spilled over into the streets of the nation's largest city. The situation became unbearable, and a conflict between Mayor John V. Lindsay and New York's Governor Nelson Rock- efeller regarding the strike's settle- ment only added to the appalling mess. On Broadway, curtains rose on many new shows, and unfortunate- ly, many of the shows were short- lived. One show, however, which first opened on Broadway in 1964, came alive again as Pearl Bailey led a new all-negro company in David lVlerrick's popular musical, I-lello, Dolly! Other top box-office attrac- tions included l-lallelujah, Baby! l-lappy Time, l-low Now, Dow Jones, and a psychedelic smash entitled l-lair. rts, Garbage
