01-22-04:  Made several related changes to the photos "Archive Page" and the "45th Reunion Pages". Through a webmaster oversight, quite a few pages became inaccessible last year. These were all linked from the "Photos Page". The links were moved from the "Photos Page" to the "Archive Page" but the new "Archive Page" was incorrectly uploaded to the website so that the old "Archive Page" was being accessed while the new "Photos Page" was acessed without the removed links. One of the key links was the one to the "45th Reunion Pages". This link led to a page with links to 226 photos some of which were on an HP Photo website which was not always working. 35 of these photos are now on the class website and another 51 are being reviewed for placement.

01-04-04:  Added a page of 2 photos: Dick and Lavon Jones hosted a Houston Bowl game party for 55ers in the greater San Diego area.
