Memories Lure Kids Back to Nature, Fun DISPLAYING THEIR school spirit, the members of the newly formed Kazoo Band carefully form an M. Those who could find spare time, spent it in a variety of ways. Some people escaped to the outdoors by hunting, hiking, and just enjoying nature. Others spent their outdoor hours stroll- ing through graveyards and romping in the parks at one a.m. Another out-of-doors ' activity was the widespread sport of bicycling. On the other hand, Mary Stine spent much of her time sewing, and Chris Gronning pre- ferred listening to records. Many people de- voted their time to improving themselves with dancing, singing, or instrumental lessons. At night, activities included top rock groups at Stepan Center and the ACC. Hobbies were varied and many this year. One of Kirk Jannowiak ' s hobbies was collecting pets. At present, he has a dog, a snake, and several fish. Other students worked on cars, and even collected beer cans. Some considered sports or reading as their hobby. With the freedoms present in our society, there truly seemed to be no fads this year. Things like dark nail polish and bright lipstick were hardly considered different at all. It seems that fads are gradually going out of style. SWINGING WITH EASE, Barbara Baldoni uses her leisure time to communicate openly with nature. Student Life-21

72 Political 9cene Draws 9f udent Action The right of citizens of the United States, who are 18 years of age or older, to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of age — 26th Annendnnent to the U.S. Constitution. The 18-year-olds exercised this right in a hotly contested election fought over the with- drawal of United States ' troops from Vietnam. Two weeks before the election, though, the temper of the country cooled down a bit as President Nixon announced a possible peace settlement by October 31. Even though peace did not come about by October 31, President Nixon, carrying 49 out of 50 states still won a landslide victory. It was the biggest popular vote victory in history. On election day, many students of both parties worked at the polls from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. handing out literature and telephon- ing registered voters. Thus, the joy of an election victory was ever so sweet. I ' LL DRINK TO THAT is Chris Gautier ' s feeling about Don Newman ' s Campaign for Congress.
