*************
Note: The photos, titles & captions came from an original copy of the booklet issued in 1976 by the Lyons Lions Club. The quality of some photos suffered because they were scanned from the booklet rather than from the original photo. All photos were enhanced for clearness & clarity by photo editing programs.
