Beginning with General of the Armies, Douglas MacArthur, Fathers of the Year have in­ cluded statesmen, educators-, sports and entertainment stars, religious leaders and many others. Presidents Ford, Kennedy, Eisenhower and Thiman were named Fathers of the Year. So were Senators McClel­ land, Jackson, Muskie, Ken­ nedy (both Robert and Ted) and Speaker of the House O'Neill. Governors honored include Byrne of New Jersey, Reagan of California and Carey of New York. Then, there were Jack Nick- laus, Lou Gehrig, Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle and in en­ tertainment, Big Crosby, Frank Sinatra and Yul Brynner. The first International Father of the Year was U.N.'s Kurt Waldheim. The Fathers of the Year truly paint a contemporary picture/ and over the years have helped keep the meaning of Father's Day current and timely. Yes, Father's Day has "changed with the times," as Father shares responsibility with die rest of the family, but its roots were firmly established in the concept that was born back in 1910.
