No one thought anything of it.

They would come upstate for a week or so at a time and stay with friends near campus to make a little money and then slide back South to the city. The guys all posed in one sort of strap or another. When I came to Indiana University I was amazed to find that here amid the political power of the Farm Lobby and Earl Butts and the still active remnants of the Klan that the models all posed in the natural. The department was one of the only ones then that was so dedicated to the figure and figurative imagery in general. Jack
