Texas law enforcement and state agencies unite to boost Labor Day highway safety. Col. Homer Garrison Jr. will lead 150 DPS patrolmen with the Texas Highway Patrol, while Gov. Price Daniel appeals to sheriffs, chiefs, Jaycees, and broadcasters for expansive public cooperation. Jaycees aim to double their 1960 safety record, with 1,254 members serving motorists and 66,000 safety literature pieces.
