The best of Friends -- Indian President Rajendra Prasad (right) and Indian Premier Jawaharlal Nehru - The Best of Friends, really - were up early on March 9 to throw coloured powders and coloured waters at each other. It was all part of the festival of Holi - Marking the advent of summer - and all New Delhi was at it. The day closed with the traditional processions to the nearest river for community bathing. March 24, 1955. (Photo by Associated Press Photo).
