“BORN IN THE U.S.A.” Cooper students were out to set different records during the 1984-85 school year. Other people throughout the nation were also setting records. Ronald Reagan was re-elected president by winning 49 elec- toral states and receiving 58% of polled votes. His competitor, Walter Mondale, was also noted for having the first female running mate Geraldine Ferraro. Another record setter was U.S. gymnast Mary Lou Retton. She won the first gold medal in an individual gym- nastics event. McDonald’s fried its billionth burger, while Clara Peller became Wendy's famous “Where’s the Beef lady. The underdog of the 19th Super Bowl, the San Francisco 49er's, drowned the Miami Dolphins 38-16. Another record was set in the medical field with the transplanting of a baboon’s heart into the new born child Baby Fae. This operation was somewhat con- troversial as well as somewhat successful.
