FOREWORD We dedicate our annual this year not to a person, or to an event, as sometimes is the custom; but to an era of time. We dedicate this book to the best years of our lives — those of our youth. We were born in the last years of the “Flaming Twenties” and we have already lived through a depression, only to spring up into one of the most colorful eras of American History — that of Sinatra, bobby-sox, jeep, and jitterbugs. Hot Jazz records, Betty Grable, and Van Johnson were eaten at breakfast along with Wheaties, and we laughed at the post-war Studebakers. Peace conferences and the coal strikes filled the newspapers and the boy next door came home from overseas. Dirty saddle shoes, blue jeans, and flannel shirts (worn tail out) covered our young frames, and all over the nation chili on hot dogs, and pineapple cokes whetted our after-school appetites. The songs of a nation were those that we whistled at home, at school, and at work. How many of these things will we remember when our children are growing up? How many of our good times will we still remember forty years from now? To these things, then, we dedicate our Pow-Wow; that we may always remember our youth — lest we forget the best years of our lives.
