It’s always nice to see the phrase “Where MEN are MEN!” used without snark; meant something then. Western myths in all their dime-novel glory were still a big part of popular culture, and the times they described weren't that far off. The first Aquatennial celebration in Minneapolis, in 1940, was attended by a 92-year-old man who'd been at the Battle of Little Big Horn. A boy who read these books might have had a Dad who grew up in a sodbuster hut.

A bit painful to see Guest next to Shakespeare, but in 40 years they'd put Rod McKuen in the same spot.
