Sit-ins, love-ins, woodstocks, assassinations and peace have all had their effect on MacArthur. New attitudes, traditions and hopes have developed over the years under the pressure of national and international events. The early sixties were a carefree, sheltered time with worries confined to a date for the Sock Hop. As the sixties neared their end, an upheaval and an awakening of political and humanitar- ian awareness appeared. The hippies and flower children had very definite ideas of war, peace and love.
