mmm Clara Peller (sceFADS FOLLIES) Fads 5 Follies In order to promote Wendy's hambur- gers, Clara Peller, initiated the question that soon swept the nation as Americans everywhere asked Where's the beef? Q. What did Americans eat-up the most of in 1984? A. trivia Yes, it was the board game Trivial Pursuit that appeased Americans' hunger for trivia and made it the Game of the Year. Parachute pants and a piece of card- board became the trademark of an every- day breakdancer. You could find a break- er spinning on his hand, performing Windmills, or doing footwork all in order to prevent giving in to the forces of grav- ity. What has four appendages, two eyes, ten toes, and a tail? Probably the person next to you! Hairstyles took on new di- mensions that included such features as spikes, a buzz, and the most common, the tail. You ask what holds it all together? — mousse, of course! 5 Ethiopian victim (sec» (RIFS) Extra! Extra! W.H.S.

Current Events Cries Ethiopia cried tor a decade because its people were suffering from drought, civil war, and starvation. For an estimated one million, the help from the U.S. and Great Britain was too late but the remaining ac- cepted their generosity with open arms. Vanessa Williams' cries can't bring back her title as Miss America. She was pres- sured by the pageant committee to resign the title after sexually explicit pictures of her were featured in Penthouse. Cries of glory were heard from Los Angeles as the U.S. Olympic teams left the XXIII Olympiad with a total of 83 gold medals. From Lewis on the track to Retton in the gym the feeling was mutual as they all felt the glory of winning not only for themselves but also for their country. Cries from a San Ysidro McDonald's were heard on July 18. James Huberty, an unemployed security guard, scarred the lives of many people who were the inno- cent targets of his three weapons. Of his 40 victims, 19 were wounded and 21 died. Huberty, himself, was a victim of his own massacre. Olympics (see CRIES) Mondale Ferraro (see POLITICS) Statue of Liberty (see EXTRA! EXTRA!) Politics Despite the persistant ef- forts of the Mondale Ferraro team, Reagan won by a land- slide! For the next four years he promises no tax increases and a lower deficit. Geraldine Ferraro made history as being the first fe- male vice presidential nomi- nee! Her credentials were strong, her enthusiasm con- tagious, and her views realis- tic. Yet the outcome of the 1984 election showed that her well-rounded criteria was not enough for the American public. Vic DiSylvestro, deter- mined to prove his compe- tence as mayor, organized a re-call election which put Ostrander out and DiSylves- tro in office as the mayor of Wildwood. What's Up Doc? If Americans watched with great concern as Baby Fae became the fifth human and first infant to receive an animal heart. Unfor- tunately, like the other four recipiants, Baby Fae's system rejected the alien organ which resulted with the infant's death. £ Zoe Leyland made her claim to fame at a very young age. She was the first baby to be conceived from a frozen embryo. On November 25, William Schroeder, 52, became the second recipiant of an artificial heart implant. Modern medicine made it possible for a healthy baby boy to be born from an embryo transferred from one woman to another.
