FOUR GREAT PRESIDENTS are immor- talized in the stone of Mt. Rushmore. South Dakota, silent reminders of America's greatness and an inspiration in times of trou- ble. Times that try men's souls This wasn't exactly the best year for a Bicentennial. We were still try- ing to patch up the divisions rent in this country by Vietnam and Watergate. We hadn't yet resolved the civil rights problem or recovered from the worse recession since the Great Depression of the 1930's. Twice in September while visiting California, President Gerald Ford was the target of assassins. Both women were caught, tried, found guilty and given life sentences. Foreign fishing fleets off the East Coast (especially the Jersey coast) provoked Congress into extending U S. territorial limits to 200 miles to protect our fish resources. Busing continued to cause protests in Louisville and Boston. Patty Hearst was captured finally and convicted in the first of many trials. Governor Byrnes had horrendous problems with his budget and the proposed income tax. vandalism increased in township schools, and unemploy- ment continued to hold at 7.5 per- cent despite a record increase in the national work force. 18—STUDENT LIFE

You gotta be a football hero We don't need the campus flicks of the 'thirties to remind us that foot- ball players enjoy a status all their own in our society. Off the field, they seem to get all the pretty girls. They get the scholarships to prestigious colleges. And they get out of class early to suit up for prac- tice. Even at a school like East Brunswick which fields teams in just about every sport for both boys and girls, the football hero is something apart from the other athletes. Maybe it's because foot- ball is elevated to a kind of religious status—probably because the game began less than five miles away when Rutgers beat Princeton one November day in 1 869. Of course, all athletes stand higher in the pecking order than non- athletes around here. They are the doers and it is their achievements that thrill us and add excitement to an otherwise routine school day. If they compile a string of victories, we are awed. If they lose a bunch, we make excuses for them, and blame the refs. And we wait 'til next year. How typically American. STUDENT LIFE—1 7
