In addrtion to 1he semminglv uncomparable events ttiat took place at La Canada Higti School ttiis year, ttie world sow its share of happenings ranging from an attempted new method of airline passenger unload- ing to an unsuccessful automotive pro- nxstionai sales gimick. 1982-83 was also a big year for dying with the loss of such greats as Henry Fonda. Princess Grace, John Belushi, and ERA, Death was also given a new twist with the introduction of the over the counter suicide available to the consumer in extra strength capsules only. This year also gave us a fine example of American justice with the trial of John Hinkley. In the entertainment field we saw the end of a tradition with the filming of the last M,A,S,H. episode, and a newcomer from the Phillipines took the box office by storm breaking all revenue records. From across the Atlantic we got Elizabeth ' s heir apparent and here at home Al Haig relin- quished his throne to the formidable Sgt. Schute, In a final rote this year was one that will be hard to forget. Have a coke and a smile! Would you let your daughter date this man?
