Baker Backs Amendment 1 in Texas University funding push
Former Texas Senator Robert W. Baker urged passage of Constitutional Amendment No. 1 on November 2 to provide state and federal building funds for the University of Houston and 16 other state institutions. He cited a five cent ad valorem tax increase and projected a $550 million federal matching fund opportunity over 12 years amid growing enrollments from 63,474 in 1954 to an expected 300,035 by 1975, with the Baytown Sun endorsing the stance.
