Hush-Hush Conservative Meet Sparks Texas Speculation

A Weather Bureau forecast warned of a cool, drizzly Odessa Midland area through Tuesday as the event drew attention from state leaders. The DOT liberal faction was said to be present, and Gov. Daniel was discussed as a potential opponent for Yarborough in the upcoming election.
