Former governor of Alabama; famous quote was "Segregation now, segregation forever!"

Shot in assanination attempt in 1972 and paraplegic. Arthur Bremmer was shooter.

Supposed to have helped NASCAR on Talladega track.

Wife became governor later. Wallace was Pacific fleet boxer in Navy, sort of an Edward G. Robinson character. MR. ROBINSON WAS NOT A RACIST AS FAR AS I KNOW.
