Hmmm, late 60s ... the main PSAs I remember

is the Italian guy dressed as an Indian crying in front of some litter.

“Don’t Cross the Street in the Middle in the Middle in the Middle in the Middle in the Middle of the Block” (It’s better than it sounds, even if the singer was obtained by cronyism.

One about eye safety juxtaposed against optical illusions with the catch phrase “It’s fun to play with your vision, put don’t ever play with your eyes.”

A bunch of depressing ads for C.A.R.E.

And finally one with kindergarten level drawing stick figures that said something about the Promised Land.

Also the 1968 campaign commercial with the black and white of spiro agnew and some in the background laughing hysterically

I always remember the one where some space-age robot brought in a guy’s head in a box. And then I think the head talked for a while over which we heard the PSA part which was about the importance of exercise. (I think it was an ad for the president’s council on physical fitness, remember that?)

At the end the guy in the box was calling out: I’m ready to go now!

But I always thought, eh, head in a box works for me!
