Royal’s Victorious in World Series In Kansas City, you could hear the blaring of car horns, firecrackers, screaming, singing and painting their faces blue and white as people jammed midtown to celebrate the Royals 11 -0 win to the St. Louis Cardinals. This win helped the Royals clinch the World Series Title. The Royals refused to die in this series. This team has something extra inside them. George Brett said “this team should be remembered as a team that wouldn’t give up Survey Shows Students Profitable to Area Merchants In the fall the Maurite staff did a survey of the Maur Hill and Academy students.

They did the same in the World Series, they won the Series after losing two games at home. No team has ever done that before. The Royals or anyone else never dreamed that they would do this. They were survivals of two teams that were substancial favorites because they were rock solid teams, compared to the Royals who had lots of problems. The fans were maybe the only ones that believed a little. A sign was carried through the stands saying “Oh Ye of Little Faith.” This year’s World Series was special since both teams were from Missouri. The series was named “1-70” or “Show Me State Series” by many people. The game results were: Oct. 19 Cardinals- 3, Royals-1, Oct. 20 Cardinals-4, Royals-2, Oct. 23 Cardinals-1, Royals-6, Oct. 24 Cardi- nals-3, Royals-0. Oct. 26 Cardinals-1, Royals- 6, Oc. 26 Cardinals-1, Royals-2 and Oct. 267 Cardials-0, Royals-11. Brett said, “I couldn’t have taken one more close game, after winning the sixth close game 2-1.” Holiday Honoring King On January 20, 1986, Many Americans celebrated the first federal Holiday in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Thousands of people have gathered and marched to honor this great man in Washing- ton, D.C., Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Honolulu and New Orleans. In Illinois, Rhode Island and Minnesota church bells rang and the speech “I have a dream” by King was recited by radio stations. There were three nationally tele- vised birthday parties for King many stars participated in the celebration. Some of the stars include Bob Dylan, Joan Glaz, Bill Crosby, Harry Bellofonte, Quincy Jones and Reverend Jesse Jackson. By law the third Monday of January is in honor of King. He was born January 15, 1929 and assasinated April 4, 1968, in Memphis, Tenn. In Memphis, people gathered at the place where King was killed, it was the parking lot of the Lorraine Motel. It was announced that there would be a moment honoring King on the Southside corner of Chicago where King with the poor during the mid-60’s. People marched in Birmingham, Alabama to Ingrant Park where a monument of King was unveiled and where King spoke and marched in the 1960’s. The King holiday symbolizes “that we’ve finally recognized legally that we are all created equal,” said Judge Alberto Mieca St. Paul. Some people protested the holiday. Ku Klux Klansmen held a parade and cross burning at Pulaske, Tenn. where the original Ku Klux Klan was formed in 1965. DISASTER SWEEPS SPACE TECH. CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - Space shuttle Challenger exploded into a giant fireball in the sky moments after liftoff on January 28, apparently killing all seven crew members including schoolteach- er Christa McAuliffe. There was no announcement of the fate of the crew but it appeared there was no way they could survive the exposion. The 1.2 billion space-craft, one of four in NASA’s fleet appeared to be completely destroyed. This was the first in flight disaster in 56 U.S. manned space missions, although three astronauts were killed in a 1967 launch pad explosion during the Appollo program. The explosion was a devastating setback for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. This mission would have been the 25 successful mission in slightly less than five years. Among those who witnessed the explosion were McAuliffe’s attorney-husband Steve and their two children Scott and Caroline, who were watching at Cape Canaveral. Also at the Cape were Scott’s third grade classmates from Concord N.H. McAuliffe’s parents, Ed and Grace Corrigan, of Farmington Mass, were also at Cape Canveral. McAuliffe, 37, had been selected from 11,146 teacher applicants to be the first to fly in the NASA (Citizen in Space) program. All 1,200 students at Mrs. McAuliffe’s Concord High School were cheering the televised launch when the teacher yelled for them to be silent because something appeared to be wrong. The ship had risen spectacularly off the launch pad at 11:38 a.m., after a series of weather and technical delays, and was climbing smoothly trailing a 700-geyser of fire when it suddenly erupted into a huge fireball and shot out of control. There were seven crew members aboard, includ- ing Mrs. McAuliffe, selected from the more than 11,000 applicants. The other crew members were commander Francis R. Scobee, 46, pilot Michael J. Smith, 40; Judith Resnik, 36; Ronald E. McNair, 35; Ellison S. Onizuka, 39; and Gregory B. Jarvis, 41. Ships and helicopters raced to the area and the control center said paramedics had leaped into the water. There was no indication of how much the shuttle was intact. After the explosion the shuttle appeared to still be flying and suddenly jolted out of control and plunged toward the ocean. This flight was the second of a record fifteen flights scheduled for this year. It will now be months before NASA will be able to determine the cause of the malfuncation and they must do that before they can send another shuttle up. NASA said the explosion occurred about 60 seconds after lift-off when the astronauts began to throttle their engines to maximum power. After throttling them down to a 60 percent level at 35 second in order to reduce the forces of gravity during liftoff. (Story By Mike Lasater.) 25
