LA Fox’s Year in Review

1997

by Barry R. Lee

[Ed. Note: We publish this column each January. It’s a way of

reminding the membership of where we’ve been and where we’re

going. The format is quite simple...the meeting month followed

by the guest speaker and then the list of articles appearing in

that issue - an excellent reference for past articles. 1997 turned

out to be a pretty good year for LA Fox...again.J
