We reflect on the life and distinguished public service career of native Kansan, Bob Dole. (1923-2021)
Did you know that Dole's career began by serving in the State Legislature? He was elected to the Kansas House of Representatives in 1950 and served one term until he was elected as the County Attorney of Russell County in 1952.
Can you identify then Representative Dole in this composite photo of the 1951 Kansas House of Representatives?
