Several members of the press were there doing a junket. Though Houston greeted people with a warm smile, she “appeared disheveled in mismatched clothes and hair that was dripping wet with either sweat or water,” reports The Los Angeles Times. Describing her as “visibly bloated,” the Times says Houston “displayed erratic behavior throughout the afternoon — fl ailing her hands frenetically as she spoke to Brandy and Monica, skip- ping around the ballroom in a child-like fashion and wandering Editorial See WHITNEY, on page 8 The Multi- dimensional Louis “Da Wolf” White Page 4 TOP: Whitney Houston’s sudden and untimely death on Feb. 11 sent shockwaves throughout the country, world and the music industry. At press time, imminent details of how she died has not yet been de- termined, but is clouded by a phase of her life that included drug and alcohol abuse. Yet many of her millions of adoring fans wish to focus on simply remembering her many accomplishments in music and act- ing, along with a heartfelt “Thank You” for her gift to the world.

    The Annals of Volume 77 Number 3 Iowa Summer 2018 A QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF HISTORY In This Issue BERNARD F. HARRIS JR., a doctoral student at Kansas State Univer- sity, examines the lives, education, and training of the African American cadets who were trained at the Fort Des Moines Officer Training Camp in preparation for service in World War I. Upon graduation, those officers, Harris argues, helped to chip away at the bedrock of racial intolerance that characterized the United States at the time. SARAH EIKLEBERRY, assistant professor of kinesiology at St. Ambrose University, describes the interracial work done by the Des Moines YWCA, especially in its Blue Triangle Branch, from 1919 to 1948. She identifies the opportunities the separatist branch and, eventually, the integrated associ- ation provided for black women and girls.
