, F n- ,. . Large Voter Turnout Re-Elects Senator Goldwater On the whole, 1980 offered Arizonans a plentitude of activ- ity inthe political gamut as well as the sports circuit. Being an election year, many residents turned their attention to local as well as national can- didates, and then recorded the largest voter turnout yet. Senior U.S. Senator Barry Goldwater, a conservative Republican, got more than he bargained for in his race against Bill Schulz. Ari- zona voters were kept in sus- pense well into the morning hours following election day. But Schulz followers couldn't pull it through, and Goldwater remained steadfast for another term. Meanwhile, through special elections and propositions, many changes were etched into Arizona's lawbooks. The four percent state sales tax on gro- ceries was repealed, leaving only a one percent city tax. Unaffected by this alteration were liquor, tobacco, and pre- pared foods Cincluding take-out itemsy. Further, the Papago 19 .,i 4, , .- -- 'il 1 1 tl I i 1 't i i A I a - , - Freeway received clearance over the controversial grid plan and the state lottery finally reached Ari- zona. Amidst higher education, Ari- zona State University again domi- nated local newspapers. The Uni- versity survived still another administrative upheaval as John Schwada resigned from his post as president of the institution. The Sun Devil football team was declared ineligible for television coverage as well as bowl games until 1982. A great controversy was raised when it was discovered Qthrough discrepancies in school recordsl that many of the players, although academically ineligible, were allowed to play. Physical damage of the sta- dium, which purportedly occurred during modification, resulted in the restriction of a major section of the structure. This, however, had little effect on the attendance of the 10th Annual Fiesta Bowl, which reached an all-time high. Local merchants rallied to pur- chase all remaining tickets, enabling area broadcasters to tel- hifi I fi ' Q ffl '. l 2 5'sf: 3 - in QFW' Qs Cl','1- Q- , - - 'sjjxvlv-T-tak?

The Marcos de Niza Padres lost their bid early in an interdivi- sional game vs. McClintock, and the Tempe High Buffaloes bowed to the Trevor Brown Bruins in a semi-final bout. Of the four, the Chargers went on to capture the AAA League title with a seasonal record of 12-2-O, while the Corona del Sol Aztecs downed Gerard for the AA League championship with a 9-1 -O record. Boyle Auditorium provided the setting for the Annual Tempe Jr. Miss Pageant. Of 27 candidates, Kistie Tingey, a 17-year-old McClintock High School senior, was crowned by predecessor Susan Close, a graduate of Cor- ona del Sol. Tingey went on to capture the Arizona Jr. Miss title, as well. Are You There God? lt's Me, Margaret, Deenie, and Blubber, by Judy Blume, were the topic of several Gilbert Public School Board meetlngs. Concerned par- ents questioned whether or not the books, which contained deli- cate subject matter touching upon pubescent experiences, should be made available to the students. Following heated debate, an ami- cable compromise was reached: the books would remain upon the library shelves, but parental con- sent was required to attain them. Many an Arizona skier was forced to either cancel or re-evalu- ate vacation plans as unseason- ably warm temperatures remained throughout December, leaving virtually no snow in the moutains. Valley temperatures reached an average of 80 degrees throughout most of the winter , and the annual floods, which had become a characteristic of Ari- zona, failed to materialize as expected. I certainly didn't miss the congestion on the freeway, commented Jan Russell, an employee of Motorola.
