Activities formed the stuff that dreams were made of for many students. Many young ladies fondly hoped that they might be chosen Homecoming Queen, FFA Sweetheart, or Queen-of-Courts. For a lucky few, these hopes were realized. In forensics, actors and speakers performed and com- peted, some perhaps dreaming of a future dramatic career.

rm ♦V As the school year ended, the world situation was again tense. The trouble spot was the Falkland Islands, near Argentina. Both Britain and Argentina claimed the is- lands. As of May 20, negotiotions were breaking down, the countries were taking military action against each other, and the situation was unresolved. The uncertain state of affairs did not stop the Trojans from enjoying their free time. Video games were something of a phenomenon in their popularity. Pac-man was the leading game. The game even had a popular song written about it. On the music scene, females often dominated the pic- ture. Olivia Newton-John enjoyed a renewed popular- ity. Groups with female lead singers, such as Quarter- flash and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, accounted for several hit songs. One all-female group, the Go-gos, had some successful songs. Other popular groups were the Rolling Stones, Van Halen, Foreigner, Loverboy, and AC-DC. Fantasy and adventure were unusually popular at the movie theaters. Such pictures as Quest for Fire, The Sword and the Sorcerer, and Conan the Barbarian illus- trated this new trend. In a period of uncertainty young people still worked hard, played hard, and planned for the future, as they will as long as there is a future to plan for.
