Attempting to overcome a chal- lenge, or struggling towards a goal are all part of life ' s reach for the brass ring. We remember the highlights of our lives. The failures and the conquests, the triumphs and the tragedies. Homecoming, the Sweetheart ' s Ball, the Senior Prom, the Christmas Formal, dating, music, and doing things with special friends are all highlights of the high school experi- ence. Those of us who don ' t reach it walk away knowing we tried. But those of us who reach it walk away with success in our grasp. There are also many highlights in the world scene. One of the more frightening events occurred when 60 American hostages were held by Ira- nian students who demanded the extradition of their deposed Shah. Another event was the Soviet inva- sion of Afghanistan and the tremen- dous world concern over this action. Cold prices soared in reaction to these events; at presstime an ounce of the precious metal was selling for as much as $675 an ounce. Other world events saw Panama assume control of the Canal Zone after three quarters of a century of American occupation. And Pope lohn Paul II, the first Pontiff to visit America in 1 5 years, was welcomed by large and enthusiastic crowds. Many tragic air crashes and near misses, including the Mexico City air crash which claimed the lives of more than 70 persons, made many people think twice before taking off into the wild blue yonder.
