, From the science fiction movies of wars in outer space to , humor of comedian Steve Martin-the entertainment for B year was very plentiful. N In the record world, Fleetwood Mac's 'fRumours was i number one album for 40 weeks and Debbie Booneis first gle You Light Up My Life was number one for nine eks, a record which has not been achieved since the itle's Hey Juden.

In Tulsa students were able to see s Kristoferson along with Rita Coolidge. Also performing ulsa was the bizarre rock group, KISS. After returning from KISS' concert junior Mark Strack DLI said, 'flt wasn't a concert, it was a performance. They kept your mind occupied with wild stunts. A large number of movies were popular with Southsiders this yearg f'One on Onew, Star Wars , UHeroes , Close Encounters of the Third Kind , and of course Oh God! H. Robert Beck, junior said fOh God!,, despite the con- troversy, does take an interesting-almost satirical-open- minded look at religionf' Senior Tracy Marvin felt that Star Wars was one of the best movies he's seen, but Close Encounters was better. It was more relative to today, he said. Midnight Specialw, Three's Company , and Saturday Night Livei' were some of the favorite returning television shows.
