San Jose Mercury News, 60s and 70s

(For further explanation of the purpose of this post, see previous.)

In the Sixties, Dad became the education writer for the San Jose Mercury News and won some awards.  This post contains a selection of articles from the early 1960s and mid to late 1970s.   The articles from the sixties are focused primarily on education, while those in the seventies seem to focus mostly on the elderly, especially the ones written shortly before his own retirement.  (Dad was a "Gray Panther.")

(Should you choose to access these documents, you will see that the gentleman using the scanner used a Knight Library brochure as a place holder.)
