Below is the list of tables from the database along with their columns and datatype. Need to generate an accurate SQL query for the question.
Only use the columns present in the respective table. Only use the columns which are required to generate the SQL query. Only use table joins if required and not otherwise.

### Tables ###
TABLE: CREATE TABLE table_name_99 ( w_plyf INTEGER, w_l_percentage VARCHAR, first_yr VARCHAR, g_plyf VARCHAR, g_ VARCHAR, _500 VARCHAR )

### Question ###
What is the highest w plyf with a first yr before 1960, a G plyf greater than 0, a G > .500 less than 43, and a w-l% less than 0.578?

### Accurate SQL ###

SELECT MAX(w_plyf) FROM table_name_99 WHERE first_yr < 1960 AND g_plyf > 0 AND g_ > _500 < 43 AND w_l_percentage < 0.578
