The American work week leveled off at an average 40 hours, providing many citizens more leisure time. While those who could afford it took frequent ex- cursions to exotic tropical hide-aways, typical high school students spent their free time being entertained closer to home. As sedentary activities become more prevalent among Americans, the popu- larity of television, movies, stereo-lis- tening, and concert-going skyrocketed in 1978. The teenage market alone re- corded a record high of $14 billion spent on entertainment. The favorite television stars of 1978- 1979 among Concordia students includ- ed Alan Alda and John Belushi, conse- quently, M A S H and Saturday Night Live ranked high among popu- lar programs, with Mork and Mindy listed as one of the most-watched new shows. Box-office and drive-in movies continued to be a traditional pasttime for Cadet teenagers, with Animal House , Heaven Can Wait , and Su- perman listed as favorite selections. Billy Joel proved to be the hottest re- cording artist this year, releasing the best-selling albums, The Stranger and 52nd Street . There were very few concerts or performances at the Memo- rial Coliseum in the past year, and the artists that did appear usually had small audiences. However, comedian Steve Martin ' s appearance sold out and proved very successful. Junior Rachel Gemmer said, Steve Martin cracks me up; like myself he ' s wild and crazy! entertainment 21
