G N' L., S 5 The 82-83 year across the Nation was one in which Time magazine named the computerfman of the year, and everyones heart was stolen by the alien E.T. Across the states, in February, millions of homes turned on their televisions to watch the Winds of War, a six night series about World War II. But even with all ofthe good times this year there was some bad. The loss of many great performers such as Princess Grace whose life was taken in a tragic automobile accident, millions ofpeople mourned her death. They also mourned the death ofother fine per- formers such as Henry Fonda, Ingrid Bergman. John Be- lushi, and Karen Carpenter and some others who died this year. Also the Premier of Russia, Leonid Brezhnev died this year. On a brighter side the United States was fasci- nated by the new language used by Valley Girls like: Gag me with a spoon and Fer sur, Fer sur. lt was a year marked by surprises like John DeLorean being arrested in connection with allegedly selling cocaine and the Cardi- nals winning the World Series. The year in the United States and across the world was a year of depression on the economic side. Unemployment hit a high of 10.8 percent and many people felt the pinch in their pockets. The year was marked by the tragic death of 7 people in Chicago. These people were poisoned when they took tylenol cap- sules laced with cyanide. But on a lighter note we had an addition to the royal family. Prince Charles and Princess Diana were blessed with a baby boy named Prince William Arthur Philip Louis. This year is being called a year of hope by many people. Hope that this new year will bring more jobs to people and economically the United States will get on top where it belongs. 'wp Gface

We thought that just in case you couldn't recognize some of your teachers we would give you a hint. These pictures are of teachers who have graduated from either Pontiac High School, Pontiac Northern, or Pontiac Central. We thought it would be nice to see what they looked like when they graduated. Also above is a picture of Mr. Frank Storer, who has been our photographer for all 25 years that Northern has been open. Thanks Frank for all of the work you do to make our year- book successful!
