Television played an important role, in- cluding such forms of amusement as nHill Street Blues? which usually ended up with Capt. Furillo and Joyce Davenport retiring for the evening, obviously discuss- ing a hard dayst work. Another new show, uMagnum P.I., starring the newest male sex-symbol Tom Selleck, attracted many female viewers. On the costlier side of sociability were the ever-popular mov- ies and the new boredom buster, Cable T.V., which was finally introduced to Clark County. At the Academy Awards, iiOn Golden Pond, starring Henry Fonda and daugh- ter Jane, along with Katherine Hepburn, won three Oscars. it Reds star and di- rector, Warren Beatty, won an Oscar, and uChariots of Firen won the coveted best picture award, along with three other Os- cars.

Socially, concerts rank in the top ten for most popular events as far as teenagers are concerned, and in 1981-82 concerts were bigger than ever. Country and Rock groups dominated the stages, with country concerts getting a better turnout than ever before. Some of the biggies included Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Alabama, and Conway Twitty. As always, rock concerts also made it big. One of the biggest events was the U.S. ; tour of the Rolling Stones, possibly the :i best rock group ever to perform in Louis- 3' ville. Some other major groups were, James Taylor, Journey, Loverboys, and l the Police. ! i The Louisville area seemed to attract some of the greats in entertainment. Hopefully, future years will be equally as satisfying for the many concert audiences. RICK SPRINGFIELD, alias Dr. Noah Drake on UGenera! Hospital, made two hit albums. THE FEMALE ROCKERS made their debut in 1981-82, and the 60605, shown here with Billy Joel, made it big. FOREIGNER made a comeback with their fourth al- bum and a concert tour. ONE OF MANY ARTISTS to go solo on an album was Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac. 26
