Invented by fashion designer Juli Lynne Charlot. Sock hops were informal dances usually held in high school gymnasiums, featuring the new Devil’s music—rock ‘n roll Saddle shoes, These casual Oxford shoes have a saddle-shaped decorative panel in the middle. Coonskin caps a major craze among young boys - a tribute to boyhood heroes of the era like Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone. Telephone booth stuffing ; college students crammed themselves into a phone booth. Drive-in movies capitalized on a fortuitous merging of the booming car culture Letterman jackets and letter sweaters: high school/college girls wanted to show off they were dating a jock. Conical bras Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield, and Jane Russell were largely responsible for igniting the fad. Cateye glasses:the accessory of choice for many young women. Jell-O molds people took a serious interest in encapsulating various foods in gelatin. Fuzzy dice During WWII, fighter pilots hung them in their cockpits for good luck.

Denny & Claire Hartford
Dear friends, Well, we finally got back to church last weekend and not only were we very happy to be with our church family again (part of them, at least), it was also a sign that America might be finding its way back to some kind of normalcy after all. This we earnestly hope and pray. But, of course, the quarantines are still keeping us from one of our best reasons for happiness; namely, presenting our “When Swing Was King” shows to you and so we are sending out the latest of our “activity packets” with hopes you are finding them interesting, a stimulant to your memories, and a bit of fun too. Please know we miss you all and you are all still very much in our hearts. And speaking of being happy, here are a couple of Peanuts cartoons that speak to that.

A RESOLUTION to Honor the Memory of Legendary Guitarist Reggie Young
SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION NO.101 By Johnson A RESOLUTION to honor the memory of legendary guitarist Reggie Young. WHEREAS, the members of this General Assembly were saddened to learn of the passing of Reggie Young of Nashville, a humble gentleman whose talents as a guitarist were incomparable among his peers yet accessible to the average listener; and WHEREAS, during a brilliant career that spanned seven decades, Reggie Young served as the anchor of house bands at Memphis's Royal Studios/Hi Records and American Studios and was later one of Nashville's finest session players; and WHEREAS, greatly revered among his peers, Reggie Young was not a household name, but his signature work on guitar and sitar continues to be heard and appreciated worldwide; and WHEREAS, his talents earned him engagements with a stunning array of artists, from Bob Dylan to Gladys Knight, the Staple Singers to Paul Simon, Herbie Mann to Joe Cocker, and B.B. King to Sinead O'Connor; and WHEREAS, Mr. Young played on many monumentally popular recordings, including Dusty Springfield's "Son of a Preacher Man," the Box Tops' "Cry Like a Baby," Elvis Presley's "Suspicious Minds" and "In the Ghetto," and literally hundreds of other hits and classics; and WHEREAS, always a self-effacing professional, Reggie Young never sought to stand out among his fellow musicians in the studio; he played within the context of the song, adding special touches that magically made the song and the recording better, but he also excelled as a soloist when need be; and WHEREAS, he invented and played the iconic opening to Dobie Gray's "Drift Away" on the spot in the studio and recorded one of the greatest sitar solos of all-time on B.J.
