After reading of the commemoration of events that occurred fifty years ago viz. LBJ with Civil Rights and MLK with his Nobel Prize speech, I began to think "Where was I in 1964?" Well, that was the year of my European orientation tour. While I was in Liverpool, the seat of Beatlemania - the Beatles were in New York with Ed Sullivan. And while the Phillies were blowing the National League pennant, I was in mid-Atlantic ocean coming home on a U.S. Lines freighter. Nothing like being in the wrong place at the wrong time. If I should be lacking in new copy I may bore you readers with other facets of my "tour".
