Surprises mark incredible year lt once seemed like science fic- tion, but now it's for reall Giant strides in the space pro- gram, dramatic changes in medi- cine, a new threshold of develop- ment in metro-Oklahoma City, a display by students of more deep- rooted desires to help mankind, and the constant procession of signifi- cant happenings marked the year '71-72. The Vietnam War dragged on as presidential candidates poised for the '72 elections. Political furor kept local citizens in a whirl as this city became the first of its size to elect a lady mayor, Mrs. Patience Latting. School problems mounted with the prospect of increased busing to im- prove racial balance. Influenced by the impact of the new 18 year old vote, students formed groups to push for reform in policy from capitol to precinct. Stirred by the realization that they had an urgent stake in Ameri- can life, Knights responded by en- thusiastic involvement in the politi- cal and civic life of the community and nation. .. w ABOVE: JOYS of Christmas are shared by Becky McCully at a party hosted by Stu- dent Council for underprivileged children.
