ummer implied freedom for Gens. Three months without homework, teachers, or rigid desks meant time to earn money and time to spend it. General jobs ranged from cooks and clerks to massage parlor receptionists and baby sitters. Swimming, skiing, biking, and boating top- ped summer fun after work hours. Although Generals took a vacation, the world didn ' t rest. In the spirit of detente, U.S. and Russia combined for the July 1 5 Apollo-Soyuz rendezvous as the world looked on. The financial state of New york City also evoked world-wide attention as the giant city headed for bank- ruptcy. Although bicentennial quarters, half-dollars, and silver dollars didn ' t provide much help for New York, it represented the biggest coinage change in America and Gens pocketed the silver as anticipated collectors ' items. In the spirit of the bicentennial, congress restored Robert E. Lee ' s citizenship after nearly a one hundred year alien- ation period. In addition to world and national news earning head- lines, Fort Wayne news stories also netted front page cov- erage. The movie JAWS proved to be the top box-office seller in history and the song MR. JAWS swam to the top ten while radio and television broadcasted the summer heat with Celsius temperature readings. Gens took it easy on the conveyor belts of the Freedom Train but the seem- ingly endless line drew attack along with the train ' s per- sonnel. The Three Rivers Festival provided the summer highlight. A fourteen year old boy, however, shook the Festival as a drowning occurred for the first time in the Raft Race ' s seven year history.
