Three Dog Night’s “Family of Man” drops off, but will be back next week.

The top six records stay the same, just in a different order.

All six of the debuts were top fifty Billboard hits. Commander Cody’s “Hot Rod Lincoln” will quickly rise to number two, though it peaked at number nine nationally. “Morning Has Broken” by Cat Stevens, a number six BB hit, will stop at number 19.
