1979 is the end of a decade that we will all remember as our school years — a time we'll look back on when we have children and say: ''Those were the good old days''. Every decade seems to have a style of its own, something unique and new. There were the Gay 90's, the Roaring 20's and the Rock and Roll 50's, but what about the 70's? Here are some of the highlights: Lori Juillerat, Laura Shepherd and Lori Smith do their version of The Streak!'' at the E.M.S. Gong Show. ''Oh yes, they call me the streak, fastest thing on two feet!'' The fads of the 70's included baring it all and streaking, or baring a portion and mooning ... Fitness was ''in'', both physical and mental. There were yoga and T.M. for the mind and soul, while jogging and health food kept the body in shape ... For the fast life there was fast-food: McDonalds, Burger King, Burger Chef, Wendy's, and Arby's ... Everything seemed manufactured for convenience. There were drive-up windows at banks and restaurants, new math for easier learning, and calculators for quick figuring ... Ina search for religion many people turned to cults. Moonies and members of the Unification Church were the most familiar cult members ... A new language came into use with the appearance of the C.B. radio. We were all on the look out for ''smokies''. Well, signin' off now, catch ya later, good buddy! =SPORTS ''The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat'' were felt strongly in the 1972 and 1976 Olympic games. They brought with them peaceful competition and the horror of unrest between the nations with the Arab terrorist attack on the Israel competitors in 1972. Many heroes came from the games including Mark Spitz, Bruce Jenner, Vassili Alexeev and Dorothy Hamill. Gymnastics grew in popularity and more heroins were born in this sport: Cathy Rigby, Olga Korbut and Nadia Comaneci. Athletes pushed their ''favorite'' products on commercials. O.J. Simpson ran through many an airport to catch his Hertz rent-a-car while Joe Namath got ''creamed''. Everyone who was anyone got into tennis. Chris Evert and Jimmy Connors were the love-set and Bobby Riggs and Billie Jean King were the opposite. ''Floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee, whatever happened to Muhammad Ali?''
