A variety of thing made the head- lines this year. Among them were fads, such as Smurfs, the impor- tance of the computer, the Tylenol killings and the football strike.

More than just Pac-Man Throughout the year, ev- eryone has been in love with those cute little blue crea- tures called Smurfs. Smurfs, our favorite munching man, Pac-Man, and ET were all popular characters brought to us through video. As Lisa Moreland said, I think Smurfs are cute, but people overdo it. I like ET bet- ter because he has a unique personality ... he touches your heart more than cartoon characters. Another favorite past time of students is video games. Everyone has their minds on either Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Pitfall, Frogger or As- teroids. Seventh grader, Bubby Wright, said, I think video games are really neat. They're fun to play. I spend most of my spare time at the neighbors playing Pac-Man. One thing for sure, video games are here to say. ET and Smurfs are just passing fads, replaceable when Hollywood once again churns out new idols for teens. Top: Among the favorites of new characters on TV were the Smurfs. Julie VanGilder displays her signs for the critters. Above: Video games and arcade games got shrunk down to a portable size. Chris Willis practices on one of the models. Loft: Sammy Olivio plays a game white walking down the hall. 17

'83: madness and miracles The medical miracle of Bar- ney Clark's artificial heart to the bloody massacre of Pales- tinian refugees. The year was a time of progress and turmoil. Several news stories were remembered by students. Freshman David Kyle re- called the football strike. I hated the strike. I really missed watching it. While David hated the strike, Mrs. Donna Hause loved it. Mrs. Hause also remem- bered the deaths of Henry Fonda and John Belushi. Senior Brian Kittle's thoughts turned to the U.S. Marines in Lebanon. Mrs. Bette Garrett, librarian, remembered the continual slaughter in El Salva- dor. Reaganomics became a time worn word. Unemploy- ment hit 13 per cent with no end in sight. Inflation on the hand continued to fall. Movies took Americans away from all the problems Big movies were E.T., Polter- geist, Star Trek II and An Offi- cer and A Gentleman. Top: Sporting a Pac-man badge was freshman, Jimmy Hays, who re- membered the big volcano in Ha- waii. Loft: Senior Greg Marshall, re- membered the marines in Lebanon. Above: Getting his books for the next class was Duane Felton, sopho- more, who recalled the nuclear freeze movement. 19
