## Regional attractions

The Devil's Coulee Dinosaur Heritage Museum features a Hadrosaur (duck-billed dinosaur) nest and embryo, ancient fossils, dinosaur models, located in the Warner.

The *Galt Historic Railway Park* located 1 km north of Stirling is another popular museum which displays of life and travel in the 1880s to 1920s are set up in the restored 1890 North West Territories International Train Station from Coutts, Alberta, Canada and Sweetgrass, Montana, USA. The station was moved to the current location near Stirling in 2000 and is added onto every year. Future plans to move the 1925 Oglvie grain elevator from Wrentham for display along the station in the 36 acre park is still in the planning stages.

Stirling Agricultural Village is a National Historic Site of Canada, and was listed as one of only three communities in Canada designated as a National Historic Site because of the community’s well preserved settlement pattern that follows the Plat of Zion model. Located within the village are two museums the *Michelsen Farmstead* a totally restored 1900s home showcasing rural life in Alberta in the 1930s. Listed as a Provincial Historic Site in 2001., and the Galt Historic Railway Park.

The Warner elevator row is a row of historic wood-cribbed grain elevators. A total of six elevators still stand in a row from south to north alongside the Canadian Pacific Railway on the east entrance of the village of Warner. Due to the loss of a vast amount of Alberta's many grain elevators, the elevator row in Warner remains the very last row of elevators in Alberta. Only two elevator rows remain in Canada, Warner's row and the elevators in Inglis, Manitoba.

Waterton Lakes National Park is a National Park located in the extreme southwest corner of Alberta, Canada, 40 km west of Cardston, and borders Glacier National Park in Montana, USA. Waterton Lakes was Canada's fourth National Park formed in 1895. The Rocky Mountains rise suddenly out of the rolling prairies in the park. Amid the peaks are the three Waterton Lakes, carved out of the rock by ancient glaciers.

Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park, is one of the largest areas of protected prairie in the Alberta park system, and serves as both a nature preserve and protection for the largest concentration of rock art, created by Plains People. There are over 50 rock art sites, with thousands of figures, as well as numerous archeological sites.

**Mokey Fraggle** is a fictional puppet character created by Jim Henson. She is one of the five main characters in Henson's television series *Fraggle Rock*, well as its 2022 reboot *Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock*. She is performed by Kathryn Mullen in the original series, and by Donna Kimball in *Back to the Rock*. Mona Marshall voiced her in the animated series.

Mokey is one of the main characters in *Fraggle Rock*, alongside Gobo, Wembley, Boober, and Red. She is the best friend and roommate of Red Fraggle. Mokey is dreamy and artistic. She loves writing poems, singing songs, and painting. She has a pet plant named Lanford, who is strongly disliked by Red. Mokey is the tallest and oldest  of the Fraggles. It is her job to journey into the Gorgs' garden to retrieve radishes, the Fraggles' primary source of food.

## Development

Mokey was designed by Michael K. Frith and built by Jan Rosenthal. She was allegedly named after a childhood friend of Jim Henson. Kathryn Mullen was cast to play the character. During rehearsals, Mokey was originally performed by Karen Prell, who would later play Red.

## Behind the scenes

Mokey is a live-hand puppet, which means that her arms are glove-like sleeves into which the puppeteer places their real arms to move the puppet's hands. Mokey was the only character on *Fraggle Rock* to be a live-hand puppet, while the others were rod puppets. (Other notable live-hand puppets include *Sesame Street'*s Ernie and The Muppets' Fozzie Bear and Rowlf). Kathryn Mullen performed Mokey's left hand, while her right hand was performed by Trish Leeper (also the on-set performer for Ma Gorg).

One of Mokey's unique features is her eyelids, which she can lift up to show surprise or other emotions. She was one of only a few puppets on the show to have this ability (the rebuilt Gobo Fraggle puppet being another).

Donna Kimball has voiced Mokey since the 2020 short-form TV series *Fraggle Rock: Rock On!"*

## Reboot

Mokey's portrayal in the 2022 reboot TV series *Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock* is significantly different from her portrayal in the original series. The Mokey puppet was redesigned heavily, now wearing a green dress instead of her gray robe, and sporting a blue beehive-like ponytail. Her eyelids are also less prominent, and she is now strictly a rod puppet, like the other characters. This version of Mokey was performed by Donna Kimball, who had previously portrayed her in the short-form TV series *Fraggle Rock: Rock On!* for Apple TV+. John Tartaglia (the performer for Gobo on the new series) commented on the design change during a *Fraggle Rock* Q&A on his Instagram stories, stating, "Mokey is super creative and artistic and she wanted a new look - she's always in touch with the creative vibes of the Rock!" Tartaglia went into more detail about the reasons for the redesign in an interview with MegaPodTastic

title: White America, Inc.

abstract: White America, Inc., was an organization founded in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, in February 1955. The organization was created following the desegregation of schools in Arkansas, to attempt to prevent "any attempts by Negroes to enter white schools" in the state. The group joined two other militant white supremacist organizations in September 1955 to attempt to intimidate the local school board of Hoxie to reverse its decision to integrate its schools. The group's intimidating actions were so severe that a federal judge said they amounted to terrorism and placed an injunction on the organization and its affiliates to prevent them from contacting or otherwise interfering with the school board. This was the first time in U.S. history that a federal court had placed such an injunction on white supremacist intimidation.

# White America, Inc.

**White America, Inc.**, was an organization founded in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, in February 1955. The organization was created following the desegregation of schools in Arkansas, to attempt to prevent "any attempts by Negroes to enter white schools" in the state. The group joined two other militant white supremacist organizations in September 1955 to attempt to intimidate the local school board of Hoxie to reverse its decision to integrate its schools.

The group's intimidating actions were so severe that a federal judge said they amounted to terrorism and placed an injunction on the organization and its affiliates to prevent them from contacting or otherwise interfering with the school board. This was the first time in U.S. history that a federal court had placed such an injunction on white supremacist intimidation. The group was affiliated with the White Citizens' Councils that existed throughout the United States during the Civil Rights Movement, as well as other state and regional segregationist organizations.

A year after its formation, White America, Inc., merged with the official White Citizens' Council chapter in Little Rock.

## Background

While the Civil Rights Movement was ongoing, several anti-integration groups founded to attempt to stop the racial desegregation and removals of discrimination which were beginning to occur. One such network of organizations was the White Citizens' Councils, which founded in 1954, after the landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling *Brown v. Board of Education*, that same year, that stated state laws permitting white and black segregation were found to be unconstitutional. While the decision effectively overturned the *Plessy v. Ferguson* decision of 1896, which allowed states to segregate schools stating "separate educational facilities are inherently unequal", there was no true enforcement of this ruling in the south for many years. Blatant discrimination continued to take place for decades via Jim Crow laws, which had mandated racial segregation in all public facilities in the states of the former Confederate States of America, and continued to be enforced in many ways until 1965.

## History

White America, Inc., was founded by three white supremacist employees of the Cotton Belt Railroad in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, in February 1955. They formed the organization to, in the words of one of the co-founders, "perpetuate the white race and to endeavor to have this and future generations free of contamination of Negro blood". The organization's main goal was to prevent or stop racial integration in the state's schools. The president of the group stated they were going to stop "any attempts by Negroes to enter white schools" and that they would do so "on a peaceable basis\_through legal action", but warned if that failed that "the people" would "take matters into their own hands". The organization believed that the *Brown vs. Board of Education* ruling by the United States Supreme Court violated states' rights. The co-founder and organization president, L. D. Poynter, stated at a meeting in Pine Bluff that if integration happened "in a few years we won't be able to identify ourselves as white or black". The articles of incorporation of White America, Inc., entitled the executive office of the organization to the "Pine Bluff Labor Temple".

In February 1955 the group circulated a petition to request the state to place a referendum on the ballot to force the state government to "prevent integration". The petition garnered over 6,000 signatures and was submitted to state senator Lawrence Blackwell. In February 1956, a primary gubernatorial candidate (eventually elected as the 38th Governor of Arkansas), Orval Faubus, stated he held no objections to state employees signing the petition to have a pro-segregation measure placed on the ballot that November. The following month White America, Inc., commended Faubus for his statement; according to Amis Guthridge, the group's executive secretary, Faubus had "finally declared himself for the principles which White America stands for", but stopped short of endorsing him for the 1956 Arkansas gubernatorial election.

The organization worked with other white supremacist and anti-integration groups in the state, including the Hoxie Committee for Segregation and the White Citizen's Council of Arkansas.

### Hoxie school integration dispute

As in most areas in the Jim Crow south, Hoxie, Arkansas, had a segregated school system. This remained in place until June 11, 1955, after the *Brown v. Board of Education* ruling, the local school superintendent requested and received the unanimous support of the school board to integrate the entirety of the school system, including restrooms and cafeterias.

When local segregationists heard of the decision they converged in the summer of 1955 to attempt to intimidate the superintendent and school board to reverse the decision. They called for the removal of the local school board, and even threatened the life of the superintendent. To further intimidate the local community the groups began performing drive-by shootings of homes where black schoolchildren lived. Guthridge stated that school integration was a "plan that was founded in Moscow in 1924 to mongrelize the white race in America" and claimed that white Methodist women "want integration so that the Negro can get in the white bedroom".

In *Hoxie School District No. 46 of Lawrence Co., Ark. v. Brewer*, 137 F. Supp. 364, the first time the federal government had ever intervened in a case of white supremacist's intimidation, U.S. federal judge Albert L. Reeves ruled that the actions by the anti-integration groups amounted to acts of terrorism, and ordered them to stop interfering with the Hoxie school board. White America, Inc., immediately appealed the injunction to the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals, which upheld the ruling by the lower court. The Eighth Circuit ruling stated that the segregationists' conduct "was deliberately aimed at preventing the school board from affording to all the children within the school district the equal protection of the laws".

Assisted by the Hoxie Committee for Segregation, White America, Inc., began a campaign to enroll over 100,000 members statewide for $2 ($18.23 adjusted for inflation in 2018) a year. Guthridge, stated they intended to enlist over two thousand people in Lawrence County alone, after the Hoxie school integration dispute.

## Merger

In late 1956, after the group's unsuccessful segregation attempts in Hoxie, White America, Inc., merged with the Arkansas chapter of the White Citizens' Council.

However, by a twist of fate, an unfortunate accident occurs, which brings Tarun's life into the limelight and turns him into a hero overnight. The events that follow not only shatter the peaceful life of the family but also leave them in grave danger. When his daughter, Minal (Saanvi Sharma), is kidnapped at the hands of an unknown assailant, Tarun will go to any lengths to rescue her. He must return to his roots and find out who is creating havoc in his life and the motive behind it.

## Filming

The first half of the film was shot in the scenic locations of Mussourie and Dehradun, and the second half was mostly shot in the rustic and raw locations of Meerut. The flashback portion of the film was filmed in Rao Raj Vilas fort of Jat Jagirdar of Kuchesar, near Meerut. The shooting was completed within the pre-decided schedule of 31 days from 29 October to 2 November 2012. The production budget was around Rs. Four Crores.

## Release

The film was released across the country on 27 September 2013. However, being a debutorial venture without any big names attached to it, despite great critical acclaim, *Maazii* failed to get many screens. It was re-released in cinemas on 11 October 2013. In 2019, Maazii was released on Prime Video.

## Critical acclaim

Despite being Jaideep Chopra's debut directorial, *Maazii* received good critical acclaim and his work as a director was appreciated. Renowned critic Subhash K. Jha, called it "the shocking surprise of the season." He also stated that Maazii "takes us back to the stylish thrillers of B.R. Chopra like Dhund and Ittefaq. Debutant Jaideep Chopra's film is well-crafted and thoughtfully scripted. It's an original idea executed in a gripping language. Worth a dekko for its suspenseful aura."

Rohit Vats from IBN7 gave *Maazii* a rating of 4/5 stars and was all praises for the film. He claimed that *Maazii* shows "a glimpse of the latent potential of the gangster genre" and was "not to be missed" India Today's Faheem Ruhani mentioned in his review that "Director Jaideep Chopra's debut directorial Maazii is that pleasant surprise which hits you once in a while."

"Maazii" was also listed as one of the 10 "small films/non-star cast films that made it big" in 2013 in an article in DNA newspaper.

## Controversies

Despite good critic reviews, the film was not given many screens. In an interview, the producers of the film reported that several multiplex chains had demanded money in return for giving them shows. This led to a wave of controversy with several other producers and directors coming forward to claim that they had faced similar extortion at the hands of multiplex chains.

title: Madawaska HVDC

This 350 MW thyristor valve back-to-back HVDC station was completed in 1985 and connects the 315 kV Quebec transmission system with the 345 kV system in New Brunswick. Madawaska was built by General Electric and is based on their earlier design of the world's first fully thyristor valve link, the 320 MW Eel River back-to-back HVDC station near Dalhousie, NB. However, instead of using synchronous condensers for voltage control and reactive power supply to the thyristors, Madawaska uses switched filter and shunt reactor banks connected to the high voltage busses on each side. In 2017, Madawaska was upgraded.

# Madawaska County, New Brunswick

**Madawaska County** (2016 population 32,741), also known as the "**New Brunswick Panhandle**", is located in northwestern New Brunswick, Canada. Over 90% of the county's population speaks French. Its Francophone population are known as "Brayons." Forestry is the major industry in the county.

## History

The first inhabitants of what is now called Madawaska County were the Maliseet or Wolastoqiyik, who occupied and used the land along the Saint John River Valley north to the St. Lawrence River and south to the Penobscot River. There is debate concerning the true origin of the word "Madawaska". The earliest settlers were from Quebec. The area was the focus of the bloodless Aroostook War, a border dispute led by businessman and political activist John Baker.

The earliest settlers of the Upper Saint John River Valley have been clearly verified, with census results of the Madawaska region taken in 1820 showing where most families had originated from Quebec.

# Mac Creiche

**Mac Creiche** (or **Maccreehy**, **MacCrecius**) of Liscannor is described by various old texts as an early Irish saint, a hermit who slew monsters and persuaded kings to submit to him through miracles. He was probably not a historical figure. The stories of his life are most likely derived from earlier pagan legends, and he may be equated with a pagan god.

The civil parish of Kilmacrehy on the west coast of County Clare is named after him.

## Family

class=notpageimage|Location of Kilmacrehy in the Barony of Corcomroe, Ireland

Mac Creiche is said to have lived in the late 6th century and to have been descended from the god Ercc, the Corcu MoDruad chieftain Mac Ercc. According to his biography, the Corcu MoDruad was the leading sept of the *Tuadmumu* region of northern County Clare, which included the Corcomroe and Burren baronies, and was paramount over the neighbouring people of Cenél Fermaic. His homeland "Corcu Mruad in Nindois" also included the Aran Islands.

One source says Mac Creiche's father was Pesslan (not an Irish name) and his mother was from the Cíarraige people. It is possible that the Corcu MoDruad were subordinates in an alliance led by the Cíarraige. Another source says he was of the Fermacaig, and the son of Saint Ailbe of Emly. The sources agree that he was connected to the Cíarraige. He may have been a cousin of Saint Brendan of Clonfert on his mother's side. Mac Creiche is said to have lived to 180 years of age, which would make him one of the oldest of the Irish saints.

## Legends

Various legends of the saint are recorded in his *life* and other sources.

### Sea shore legends

Mac Creiche lived as a hermit in a structure made of four stones at a place called Cluain Í. The dwelling had "a stone at his back, a stone to each side, and a stone in front of him", and seems to have been designed for discomfort. He lived a frugal life: "Mac Creiche, the devout, loved / A hard and undefiled dungeon. / From Shrovetide to Easter would he subsist / Upon only bread and cresses."

He was a pupil of Ailbe of Emly. Ailbe and Mac Creiche once made a spring appear through their prayers. Saint Mainchín is described as Mac Creiche's son, or spiritual son, whom Mac Creiche baptized and taught. Mainchín and Mac Creiche went to Fid Inis, an island, where Mac Creiche told Mainchín to fetter him and hand him the key. Mac Creiche threw the key into the sea, saying he would stay on the island until the key came out of the water to free him. Ailbe later came to Fid Inis. He caught a salmon and found the fetter key in its stomach, with which he released Mac Creiche.

Mac Creiche travelled to Aran with Ailbe. Mainchín waited on the shore at Cluain Dirair (today's Kilmacrehy), near the fort of Baethbrónach, king of Corco Mruad. Mainchín purchased a ridge of corn from Baethbrónach, which he sowed. When Mac Creiche and Ailbe returned, Mainchín began to reap his corn, while Baethbrónach's men reaped another ridge by the fort. A strong wind swept over Baethbrónach's field and blew all his corn into the sea, while Mainchín's remained unharmed in the sun. This convinced Baethbrónach to submit to the saints, with his people. Mac Creiche declared that the coast in this region would henceforth be safe from damage by the sea.

### Plague monster legend

Mac Creiche was called upon by the Cíarraige, his mother's people, to save them from a monster. The *Brioch-Seach* (badger monster) appeared in Loch Briocsighe (badger's lake). Today this is called Loch-no-Rátha (Lough Raha), and lies in the parish of Rath, 2 miles (3.2 km) southwest of Corofin. The demon badger killed both cattle and men and was not subdued by the prayers of six local saints. The monster was lulled to sleep while Blathmac went with 1,200 followers to seek help from Mac Creiche, whom he found with his disciple Mainchín and his bell, the Finnfaidech. Mac Creiche asked for the promise of a perpetual tribute to himself and to his relics before he would come.

Mac Creiche arrived after three days. He was accompanied by Mainchín, who carried the bell. The monster, as high as a tall tree, had awoken and was pursuing and killing the people, discharging balls of fire from its mouth. In the contest that followed a ball of fire from Mac Chreich's bell shot into the monster's maw and set it on fire. The saint drove the monster into the waters of the lake, which turned red. The monster rose up again, embarrassing Mac Creiche, who took his cowl (or possibly his cap) and threw it over the monster. The cowl grew so it was "like a cowl of smelted iron" that pressed the monster to the lake bed. The monster would not arise again until the eve of Judgement Day. Mac Creiche accepted the thanks of the people but warned that if they did not pay the promised tribute they would be cursed with disease, pestilence and internal strife.

Another version of the legend says Ireland was afflicted by a plague called *Crom Chonnaill*. The men of Kerry (his kinsmen, the Cíarraige) invited Mac Creiche to meet them in Ulster to turn the plague away from them. Three sons of the brother of MacCreiche's mother came from the east, but were felled by the *Crom Chonnaill*. When Mac Creiche saw this he raised his *Finn Faidheach* bell, and soon after the *Crom Chonnaill* was destroyed by a bolt from heaven. It was common at the time for a plague to be personified as a monster.

### Other tales

Other stories tell of Mac Creiche winning back plunder and hostages from robbers, and having an unjust tribute remitted. The saint was asked by the people of Tuadhmhumhain and Corca Modhruah to come to Carn Mic Táil to advise them about a cattle tribute that the king of Connacht was exacting. He agreed at once and came with Mainchín. They stopped at Tomfinlough, where they persuaded Luchtigern to join them. They found the tribes of Corcomroe waiting for them at Cairn-mic-Táil near Ennistymon. After much discussion, it was decided to make Mac Creiche the tribe's ambassador to the king to demand the return of their property.

The saints went on and met the druids of the king of Connaught at Magh Aoi, whom Mac Creiche defeated. The king of Connacht still refused to surrender his spoils. Mac Creiche was disheartened and went to spend the night on the field at Magh Aoi. He was seized with thirst, and wished that the king would have a greater thirst. Sure enough, the king became so thirsty that no drink could satisfy him. He came to Mac Creiche and offered to submit himself and his heirs to the saint in return for relief. Mac Creiche struck his staff on the ground and a spring of water broke forth, which satisfied the king and became a holy well.

Mac Creiche is linked with Inis Cealtra, an island in Lough Derg. Saint Columba of Terryglass visited him there, where he found a tree whose sap had the taste of honey and the intoxicating qualities of wine. An angel told Mac Creiche to leave the island and find another place for his hermitage.

## Historicity

There is a life of Mac Creiche, the *Betha Meic Creiche*. It is written in Middle Irish, and probably dates from the 11th or 12th century. The surviving manuscript was copied in 1634 from an earlier manuscript of 1528. Mac Creiche is mentioned in accounts of Columba of Terryglass, Ailbe of Emly and Enda of Aran. He is the subject of a quatrain in a poem said to have been written by Cuimmín of Conor about the Irish saints.

However, there is no historical evidence that Mac Creiche existed and much that suggests he was mythological. The tale of the eviction of Mac Creiche from Inishcealtra, the island with what sounds like a sacred tree, may refer to Christians taking a pagan sanctuary. The antiquarian Thomas Johnson Westropp says that Mac Creiche's feast day was Garland Sunday, but was actually held on 11 August. On the sole basis of the date, Mac Creiche has been identified with Saint Mochta of Louth. However, Garland Sunday was also the date of the pagan festival of the Irish god Lugh.

"Mac Creiche" may be translated "Son of Plunder". He travelled in a chariot with his companion Mainchín, defeated the enemies of the Corcu MoDruad and the Cíarraige, and fought a monster. This all suggests that the *Betha Mac Creiche* was originally the saga of a pagan tribal hero, the son of a god and a mortal woman. Stories similar to that of Mac Creiche's fetter and key are told of other figures. Saint Patrick is said to have commanded a wicked tyrant called Macuil moccu Greccae to fasten his feet with a fetter, throw the key into the sea, and let a coracle carry him away to a new land, where he should live a good life. Macuil moccu Greccae was so evil he was called Cyclops. From this it appears that Macuil is the old Irish god Mac Cuill. Mac Creiche may well be the same person, his name a corruption of "moccu Greccae".

## Traces

Mac Creiche was said to have founded several churches in County Clare, but only Cill Mic Creiche (Kilmacrehy) is named after him. The church of "Kilmaccrik" is mentioned in the Papal Taxation of 1302. The ruins of the old church lie near the village of Liscannor. There was a holy well near the church dedicated to MacCreiche, but the nearby well of the more famous Saint Brigit of Kildare drew many more visitors in the 19th century. Mac Creiche is said to have founded the church of Teampull na glas Aighne near Inagh. Some remains of this building could still be seen in 1839. He also founded the church of Cill Scanbotha, nearby to the west.

Two rocks on the strand of Kilmacrehy, visible when the tide is out, are called "'Mac Creiche's Bed". Locals say that the saint asked for his coffin to be set on the shore where the tide would carry it out, and for it to be buried when it was washed in again.

# U/Tex Wranglers

The **U/Tex Wranglers** were a professional basketball team and one of the pioneers of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) in its maiden season in 1975.

## History

Universal Textile Mills, Inc., a company owned by Patricio Luis "P. L." Lim and Walter Euyang, formed the U-Tex Spinners in 1960, playing in the Businessman Athletic Association (BAA), a minor league. It transferred to the MICAA in 1961.

By the 1970s, the team was competing in the MICAA as the U/Tex Weavers. They were bannered by the likes of Lawrence "Larry" Mumar, Danny Basilan and Lucio Lim. Others who donned the Weavers jersey were Francis Arnaiz, Jumbo Salvador, Roehl Nadurata, Clemente Bargas, Orly de los Santos and Domingo Celis.

The Weavers were led by Freddie Hubalde, Danny Basilan, and Ricky Pineda when they won the 1973 Dona Edralin Marcos Cup held at the Loyola Center. The Weavers' four-overtime win over Manilabank was a forgotten classic mainly because of the absence of stars who were preparing for the 1973 ABC Championship and unavailable for their mother teams. Others in the Weavers championship team were former college standouts Jess Sta. Maria, Virgilio "Bong" de la Cruz, Roehl Deles and Romeo Frank.

The team had its big break in 1974 when BAP President Gonzalo "Lito" Puyat pardoned players previously banned for game-fixing and awarded former Crispa players Danilo Florencio and Rudolf Kutch to U/Tex. Both players debuted with U/Tex during the 1974 National Seniors against MLQU. Overall, they finished 2nd next to champion YCO Painters by virtue of tie-breaking rules as a muffed free throw by Redmanizers' Philip Cezar gave them a win over Crispa.

### 1974 MICAA playoff controversy

In the MICAA All-Filipino tournament in 1974, the Weavers nosed out defending champion Toyota Comets in a playoff game on October 8, a heart-stopping 74–73 victory on an undergoal shot by Danny Florencio at the buzzer from a long pitch by Rudolf Kutch, and made it to their first-ever MICAA finals series against first finalist Crispa Redmanizers.

The Toyota Comets placed the game under protest and the MICAA board ordered a replay of their rubbermatch. MICAA president Emerson Coseteng, upon the meeting with the officials, which included the timekeeper, the referees and three U/Tex representatives, found out in the stop watches that 20.5 seconds had already elapsed before Florencio could release the ball. Counter-checking, it was observed that 21 seconds was consumed when Florencio released the ball from the time he had put in his two free throws off Cristino Reynoso with 20 ticks to go and Toyota still up by one at 73–72.

The replay was set on October 12, 1974, but a U/Tex spokesperson said the Weavers wouldn't show up in the game. As such, U/Tex defaulted the rematch. The following day, the MICAA board announced the best-of-three title series would be between Crispa and Toyota. The Basketball Association of the Philippines (BAP) decided to act on the appeal of U/Tex, which actually requested a postponement of the replay, but was denied.

### PBA season (first two seasons, 1975-1976)

As one of the founding members of Asia's first play-for-pay league, U/Tex was often hailed as the third best team behind Crispa and Toyota during the 1970s. They finished third place in the first and third conferences of the league's inaugural season. The Weavers were involved in the first-ever PBA playoff game in the first conference, losing to Crispa for the right to meet Toyota in the championship. Their lineup aside from Danny Florencio and Rudolf Kutch were consist of Danny Basilan, Roehl Deles, Romeo Frank, Larry Mumar, Jaime Otazu and Ricky Pineda.

In 1976, now known as U/Tex Wranglers, the team finished in the top four in the second and third conferences. The Wranglers acquired Lim Eng Beng, Jaime Noblezada, Romualdo Cabading and Roy Deles from the soon-to-be defunct ballclub Quasar TV Makers in the second conference.

### Finals stint and first PBA championship

The year 1977 saw Tommy Manotoc, a two-time former national golf champion, taking over the U/Tex coaching chores from Narciso Bernardo at the beginning of the second conference. The Wranglers were earlier involved in the league's first-ever trade where they shipped Danny Florencio and Jaime Otazu to 7-Up Uncolas for veterans Carlos Rodriguez and Cristino Reynoso. They finally had a breakthrough when the Wranglers became the second team after Mariwasa-Honda to break the Crispa-Toyota monopoly in the PBA Finals. U/Tex lost to Crispa in the Open Conference finals in five games, the Redmanizers had only Cyrus Mann as their import since his partner, Ricky Hicks, have long left. Mann went up against the Wranglers' imports Charlie Neal and Byron "Snake" Jones.

In 1978, U/Tex bolster its lineup with the acquisition of rookies Anthony Dasalla and Renato Lobo, both from FEU Tamaraws. The Wranglers finally won their first title in the second conference – the first for a team not named either Crispa or Toyota. It was a sweet championship victory for U/Tex over Crispa, scoring a 3–0 sweep and avenged their loss to the same Redmanizers in the previous Open conference, this time, the Wranglers were powered by the pair of Bryon "Snake" Jones and former Boston Celtic Glenn McDonald. Their top local player Lim Eng Beng made it to the year's best Mythical first team.

### 2nd PBA title in 1980

After a not-so-good 1979 season for U/Tex where at the start of the year, they lost some key players to other teams like Rudolf Kutch, who moved over to Filmanbank. The Wranglers came back in 1980 and in the Open Conference, their import Glenn McDonald returns anew and this time, he will be teaming up alongside the 6'8" Aaron James, another legitimate NBA veteran who played with the New Orleans Jazz. The Wranglers makes a return trip to the PBA finals. Earlier in the conference, they traded for Bogs Adornado in exchange for P 100,000 with Crispa. Manotoc and Andy Jao (then the team's assistant manager and assistant coach) were more than happy to accommodate the two-time MVP although a lot of experts were skeptical of Adornado's capability to come back in his old form. By that time, U/Tex's motley set of local players included, apart from Adornado and Lim Eng Beng, brothers Ricky and Mollet Pineda, Jimmy Noblezada, Fritz Gaston, Ompong Segura and David Regullano. The Wranglers lost Anthony Dasalla and Renato Lobo to Galleon Shippers via free agency and signed former Toyota players Gil Cortez, Oscar Rocha and 1977 PBA rookie of the year Jaime Taguines to fill their shoes.

Two major incidents happened in the 1980 Open Conference finals against Toyota Tamaraws. The first one was the famous quote of Coach Tommy Manotoc after Game four of the championship series. In that game, with less than seven minutes left and the Tamaraws ahead by 11 points (U/Tex was ahead in the best of five series, 2–1), Manotoc pulled out all his starters including the two imports in an apparent sign of surrender. After the game, when asked by reporters why he gave up with so much time remaining, Manotoc quipped, "one step back, two steps forward", referring to his tactic of reserving his players' energy in preparation for sudden death Game five. Manotoc was severely criticized for this and to the point that reporters were suggesting to then Commissioner Leo Prieto to sanction him. But two days after, Manotoc justified his actions when Game five went into overtime. This is when the second incident happened. Prior to the overtime, the Tamaraws were ahead by four points with 16 seconds left. The Wranglers overhauled a four-point deficit and sent the game into overtime, winning by one point, 99–98. Coach Tommy Manotoc just gave the Walter Euyang franchise its second title in three years. Bogs Adornado cracked the Mythical five for the third time in his PBA career.

### Last two seasons (1981-1982)

Coach Tommy Manotoc left the team to join the San Miguel Beermen as their new mentor beginning the 1981 PBA season, replacing him on the U/Tex bench is their former import Glenn McDonald. The Wranglers made it to the Reinforced Filipino Conference championship, the second and final conference of the season as they played the Crispa Redmanizers in the finals for the third time in five years. U/Tex had 6'3" Leroy Jackson as their import pitted against 6'1" Al Green and they lost to the Redmanizers in four games. As a Wrangler, William 'Bogs' Adornado won his third Most Valuable Player (MVP) award at the end of the season.

In 1982, the Wranglers released some of its veterans from the lineup during the off-season, among them were Roy Deles, the Pineda brothers Ricky and Molet, Danny Pribhdas and David Regullano. The team signed rookies Steve Watson and Carlson Samlani and acquired Gary Vargas from the disbanded CDCP ballclub, along with Evalson Valencia from San Miguel, Bong dela Cruz and Tito Varela from Crispa.

U/Tex enlisted the services of Julius Wayne as their import in the First Conference and the team had their last best finish, upsetting the Lew Massey-powered Gilbey's Gin in the best-of-three quarterfinal series but lost to San Miguel Beermen in four games in the best-of-five semifinal series. Before the start of the Third Conference, Lim Eng Beng was traded and reunited with coach Tommy Manotoc at San Miguel, the Wranglers got Alex Tan from the Beermen in return. U/tex placed sixth in their final PBA conference.

Universal Textile Mills Inc. was brought down by the economic crisis (Dewey Dee, PhilFinance) that befell the country. The team disbanded at the end of the 1982 PBA season and their players were spread out to different teams in the following season with Bogs Adornado going to Great Taste, Fritz Gaston and Carlson Samlani joining San Miguel, and Gary Vargas and Steve Watson to Gilbey's Gin.

It formed part of the broader Mad’arovce-Věteřov-Böheimkirchen cultural complex, also found in Austria and Moravia, which had links with Mycenaean Greece. There was a gradual evolution from the preceding Unetice and Hatvan cultures to the Mad'arovce culture from c. 2000 BC to 1750 BC, and it was succeeded by the Tumulus culture after 1500 BC. The Mad'arovce culture is sometimes considered to be a sub-group in the final Unetice tradition. Important sites include the fortified settlements of Fidvár and Nitriansky Hrádok.
