RHS was privileged to have one of the Twin Cities best rock bands. Chameleon, perform in the auditorium on February 21,1983. The most exciting part occurred when Charlie Adams and his Gyro-drumset revolved backwards and forwards at a speed of six revolutions per minute. Encore For A Cause Encore was a conglomeration of all the musicals performed by RHS in the past sixteen years. What made Encore so special was that it had the original cast members from the first productions. Among the musicals represented were Carnival (1968). Guys and Dolls (1971). Kiss Me Kate (1973), and Fiddler on the Roof (1978). At 9:20 a.m. Wednesday December 8. 1982, the Washington Monument was under seige by 66 year old Norman Mayer of Miami Beach. Florida. He threatened to blow it up with 1000 pounds of dynamite as a protest against nuclear arms. When he tried to drive toward the White House, he was killed by police gunfire. Apparently, he died for a bluff. No dynamite was found in his van or near the monument. Snowed Under One thing wrong with Christmas dinner is that many people find it difficult to push themselves away from the table. Then they gripe about exercising to get nd of the extra pounds. But after 16.5 inches of snow covered the ground on December 28.1982. as a result of the fourth largest snow storm in Minnesota, exercising the arm and back muscles was unavoidable. At a time like this, the shovel was man's best friend. Clogged streets made transportation almost impossible. Bus service was stopped until the streets were plowed, and the airport was at a temporary standstill. Just as babies must crawl before they walk, sidewalks and driveways must be cleared and cars must be dug out of snowbaods before you can get anywhere. Remember The Big Scare Before September 1982. most people would reach for Tylennol for minor aches and pains. But then, seven people in the Chicago area died after taking Extra Strength Tylennol capsules laced with cyanide. Panic struck. The product was taken off shelves across the country because officials feared that an over the counter terrorist was murdering consumers with a product they had come to trust After an extensive investigation, a $1 million extortion letter to Johnson Johnson (the makers of the product) was traced to James W. Lewis. However, a new fad had evolved — product tampering, loci- When .. J I dents included Vick’s nasal spray and Vi- ! sine eyedrops conlammated with sulfuric acid. Nyquil cold medicine filled with rubbing alcohol and many other products ranging from toothpaste to milk. It was not until late December that extra Strength Tylennol began to appear on store shelves again. Tylennol. as well as many other over the counter products now came in tamper-resistant containers. However, a favorite HaHoween pastime was in jeopordy. Children were discour- ; aged from going Trrck-or-Treatmg for fear of contaminated candy and other treats. A Season That Almost Wasn’t Sunday afternoons, Monday nights and Thursday nights were filled with the excitement of passes, fumbles, and touchdowns, before the first regular season walkout in the National Football League’s 63 year history. The major issue of the 57 day strike was money. After endless hours of negotiations, an agreement was reached on November 16, 1982. The new settlement raised minimum salaries to $30,000 for rookies and to $140,000 for twelve year veterans. Team owners also agreed to pay severence pay for all player with at least Farwell to M.A.S.H. After 250 episodes, seven time-slot changes, 17 different writers, departure of half the original cast, and 14 Emmy Awards, M.A.S.H. filmed its final episode on Jan. 14. 1983. The two and one-half hour show, which was aired on Feb. 28. 1983, became the most watched program in TV history. For 11 years the 4077th M.A.S.H. Unit explored the Korean War (which lasted only 2 years) emphasizing character development and political and humanitarian issues. The cast members voted to end the show out of respect for their work because they didn’t want to “dimish it.” M.A.S.H. will always be remembered for its unforgetable characters: Radar, the naive farmboy who slept with his teddy bear; Klinger, who wanted out of the war so badly he wore women's two years experience. The nine game schedule was the shortest ever. Estimates of the cost of the strike was over $275 million based on legal estimates of $30 million a week in lost revenues and union estimates of $9 million a week in lost player saleries. However, this does not include the mental anguish of football fans. But, in the end, the Washington Redskins beat the Miami Dolphins (27-17) at Super Bowl XVII, which was held in Pasadena, California on January 30, 1983.
