Mostly, rock concerts and music was the main source of entertainment. Video Games were starting to appear as well, but didnt grow popular till the seventies. Old TV shows sparked entertainment too.

I was in grade school & junior high during the '60s, so I'm going by memory:

television (such as westerns, variety shows and Star Trek) There were three networks, ABC, NBC and CBS, plus PBS and at least one independent channel in every market. No cussing or nudity allowed.

movies (Mary Poppins, Sound of Music, Bonnie & Clyde) Movies had no cussing, nudity or excess violence in the early '60s. Then they invented ratings.

radio (Casey Kasem's Top 100)

live theater (Hair, Jesus Christ Superstar, Sweet Charity)

rock concerts (Beatles, Stones, the Who, Jackson 5, Dylan, Peter Paul and Mary)

art shows

"happenings"

protest marches, sit-ins (to some they could be considered entertainment)

magazines (MAD at its best)

comic books (silver age!)

books

Which prepositions go with rely?

The verb rely is normally followed by the preposition "on" (rely on, count on), which can also be used without an object as an adverb (e.g. someone we can rely on). There is often a second prepositional phrase using the preposition "for" giving more information of what the object is relied on for.Example: We rely on contributors for most of our budget.
