How many can you recognize? They are (left to right, front row) James C. Munch, second vice president; J. Leon Lascoff, first vice president; George D. Beal, president; (back row) Roy Bird Cook, House of Delegates chairman; E.G. Eberle, JAPhA editor; Walter D. Adams, local arrangements committee secretary; Ernest Little, councilor and AACP executive committee chairman; Robert P. Fischelis, councilor; H.C. Christensen, councilor and NABP secretary; E.F. Kelly, secretary; Patrick H. Costello, retiring president; S.L. Hilton, Council chairman; Robert L. Swain, councilor; Andrew F. Ludwig, House of Delegates vice chairman, and R.C. Wilson, AACP president.

The Texas Druggist, official publication of the Texas Pharmaceutical Association, provided this welcome to the 1936 APhA Dallas annual meeting on its cover (left). Editor Walter D. Adams of Forney, Texas, served as secretary of the local arrangements committee and B.B. Brown, honorary chairman of the 1966 APhA Dallas annual meeting, served as a member of the local arrangements committee 30 years ago. The Adolphus Hotel was the headquarters for the 1936 meeting and the new Adolphus serves as one of the official hotels for the 1966 annual meeting.
