Every year the PBA would provide to each member a new copy as part of the $300 annual fee for membership, assuming that you also maintained the neces- sary criteria to be a part of this very elite group of traveling vagabonds. The yearbook was from 1975, my very first year of membership in the PBA. As I perused the pages, a thought came to me that I have quoted often in my life - “The more things change, the more they stay the same.” The phrase is most often credited to Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr, an educator, writer and floriculturist from France that lived during the 19th century.
