Only nine other cities in the United States had this dis- tinction. Blending the University community with the City of Lawrence is part of the whole college experience. What will come to mind when you remember your col- lege days? First you'll probably think of the campus, and then, perhaps, of classes and teachers, but, eventually, you come to think of delightful parks and playgrounds with locomotives and airplanes you could climb on. You think of the Kansas River, Massachusetts Street, 18 million hamburger joints, loe's Bakery Copen 24 hours daily ex- cept on weekendsl, old, distinctive houses with really fas- cinating architecture, movies, billiards, pinball, beer, laundromats . .. You might also remember the head shops and all those new businesses being developed by just-graduated seniors in the town. You think of hills and one-way streets, industries, and that warm spring day when you and your friend went bicycling through the Lawrence countryside. V What might also come to mind is the memory of the residents of Lawrence, people who had lived there all of their lives. You think of old men and women and little kids running around and all of those Lawrence High School students whom you mistook to be from the Uni- versity. You think of cats and dogs that ran loose every- where and how you used to wonder just who they be- longed to. Speaking of cats and dogs, you might also re- member the weather. Remember how the downtown section of Lawrence was repaved while you were there? Think of the new curb system on Massachusetts Street with those lamp posts and planters. We will remember it as the city that pulled us through our college days, the city that took us in. lt's something you can't quite erase from your mind as you remember back when you were attending the University of Kansas.
