His sexy, easy-going personality seemed to be lived, as well as his acting abilities. From a convict in The Longest Yard!! to a bootlegger in Lucky Lady to the fast-driving CB'er who only takes his hat off for one thing in tfSmokey and the Ban- dit,'I Reynolds characters were al- ways lovable. Gun-slinging Clint Eastwood came in second, and bionic Lee Majors took third position. In the female celebrity category, four members, present and former, of television's Charlie's Angels caught the top four rankings. Kate Jackson came in first, and surpris- ingly the newest angel, Cheryl Ladd, beat out her predecessor, Farrah Fawcett-Majors for the number three spot. . li EVERYONES TALKING about t'Star Wars, and these people waitin line for tickets to see if it's really as good as they say. COMMERCIALISM usually treks closely behind any film as successful as Star Wars or Rocky, Poster and T-shirt order forms from a movie magazine are shown at left.

TCIGVISIOTI- Television- TCIGVISIOTI- The ever-popular television medium had three totally different types of shows tieing for first place. Eight is Enough , The Gong Shown, and t'Three's Company took top honors. The traumas of a family with eight children shown weekly in a light, but realistic, way- a zany variety-game show - and a situation comedy about two girls and one guy sharing an apartment - were the most-watched television shows. Its crazy format and often tasteless acts were the main attrac- tion of The Gong Show,'l a game show set up like a talent show. Stu- dents could identify their own families with the bustling household in f'Eight is Enough, where each member has his own problems, complaints and trials. The partying life portrayed by the two young ladies and the young gentleman who shared a small apartment appealed to students' fun-loving side, the side which wanted to get out and be on their own. Television this year re- flected many feelings and experi- ences which have been part of each student's life. Music- Music- Music- Music- Music- Maybe the most influential cate- gory was that of music. Home stereos, car tape decks, and class- room radio over the intercom made for music just about anywhere someone went. Always on top, the Eagles were selected as number one performers of the year by the student poll. Mar- gins were fairly close, however, with Ted Nugent and Fleetwood Mac fol- lowing behind. Retaining popularity from the past few years, the Eagles concert has been one of the most well-attended by students once again. Such great approval is something new for the others, both groups well on the way up. Theme songs from films seemed to be very popular, perhaps being a change in trends. A romantic movie theme, You Light Up My Life, took top honors as favorite song. An older led Zepplin song, Stairway to Heaven, remained the favorite of many, taking a tieing ranking for second along with the theme from Star Wars. Mellower and slower melodies appeared to be the trend, with performers formerly tagged as country having many tunes on the pop charts. Ronnie Milsap with lt Was Almost Like a Songj' and Crys- tal Gayle with Don't lt Make My Brown Eyes Blue, were only two examples of such singers. 20 Most Respected- Parents, those people who sit be- hind and give their students support and background, were chosen as the ones most respected. Those who so often are ignored and neglected for once received the billing of 'fnumber one. Second ranking choice was Mr. Noel Thomason, the man who has done so much toward building a reputation for MHS. tudent The following survey was taken from a random sampling of Moore High School students during the month of October.

Even though the film was made by a nearly unknown cast and crew, and had very little pre-opening publicity, Star Wars was the top box office attraction of the year. Special ef- fects, music, and an old-fashioned good guys versus bad guys story were the main reasons for such great success. No other movie - not even Jawsl' or f'Rocky'i - resulted in the fads that f'Star Wars has. Posters, t-shirts, albums, calendars, and even Holloween costumes were all part of Star Wars-mania. Such phrases as 'tMay the force be with you, and Darth Vader Lives! were also commercialized. Other popular films included f'Rocky and HA Star ls Born. A de- termined underdog, Rocky seemed to represent something to the stu- dent body. Every time the Lion band struck up the theme song, spirit and determination seemed to build im- mediately.
