C93-UQ As well as making the year memorable, there are always certain people and events which influence the occurrences throughout it. ln a poll taken of approximately 1,800 LHS students, they were asked to list their favorite movie, music group or singer, song, car, TV show, star lmovie, TV or comedian and the college they planned to attend. After tallying all the votes, the top 10 in each division were revealed. ln the category of movies, Animal House ran away with the number one spot. Easy to relate to, the hilarious de- piction of college and fraternity life much influenced the attire worn to many e- ventsgsuch as pep rallies and toga parties. The favorite musical group was Bos- ton. When the group, consisting of five members, came out with their first album in 1976, it quickly sold more than 4 mil- lion copies, including the two singles from the album, More Than a Feeling and l'Peace of Mind. 1.Animal House 2. Heaven Can Wait 3. Up in Smoke 4- Foul Play 5. Grease 6. Rocky Horror Picture 7. Hooper 8- Magic 9- Star Wars Gone With the Wind 10. Blazing Saddles Goodbye Girl Saturday Night Fever Show Much the same as John Belushi in Ani- mal House, Keith Arterbum stuffs his face with a hamburger. MOVIES ln 1978 their long-awaited second album, Don't Look Back and its single were instant hits. Why did Boston's music become so popular? As Becky Grabber put it, I like their type of rock-n-roll. You can get in to it. They're good. With more than 150 songs nominated in the song category, the fairly new group, TOTO, took first place with Hold the Line. It appeared to have a catchy melo- dy and a well-liked beat. Choosing from a variety of cars, the Corvette overtook the others. It?s ritzy- looking, They got class, 'iThey're sporty-looking - flashy, were just a few of the comments made by several stu- dents about the car. Surpassing the others by a wide mar- gin, Mork and Mindy obtained the top spot as the favorite 'IV show. Revolving around the character Mork, a man from the planet Ork, who knows nothing about Earth and its people, the MUSIC GROUPS!

At the end of each episode, Mork reported all of his udiscoveriesw to his leader. Comedian Steve Martin and his happy feet dominated the star category. With his first album, 'tLet's Get Small, a Grammy-winner and his top charted sin- gle, uKing Tut, people found him easy to imitate and relate to. His fans attended his concerts with phony arrows stuck through their headsl and sport glasses with funny noses attach- ed. Along with his overwhelming popularity, 1978 brought him his second album, A Wild and Crazy Guy. In the college division, the school most, students planned to attend was University of Texas at Arlington. The majority were going to UTA for their first two years to finish their requirements, since They're pretty much the same everywhere, besides its cheaper. On the other hand, many intended to graduate after realizing it was one of the top business schools in the nation. Many of the favorites stayed the same for awhile but with the passing of time came new songs, cars and stars to make the 78 - 79 school year memorable. i i 4 1 l The album Toto features the fauonte song Hold the Lme while Boston was the favonte group 7 Dream On Aerosmith 8 Come Together Aerosmith 9 Stairway to Heaven Led Zepplin Commodores 10 Freebird Lynard Skynard Dust in the Wind Kansas Hot Blooded Foreigner That s How Much Ambrosia Le Freak Chic 1. 1 3.
