KXEL@80–1973

The Year Was 1973–in the news, Vice President Spiro Agnew resigned, Secretariat was the first horse to win the Triple Crown in 25 years, the Supreme Court handed down the Roe v. Wade decision, and a standoff ended near Wounded Knee, South Dakota…on television, new shows included “Kojak” and a revived edition of “Match Game,” as well as “Schoolhouse Rock” segments on Saturday mornings…on the music charts, Vicki Lawrence scored with “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia,” Jim Croce sang “Bad, Bad Leroy Brown,” Tony Orlando and Dawn made “Tie A Yellow Ribbon” popular, and The Sweet gave us “Little Willy”…in theaters, moviegoers watched “The Exorcist” and “American Graffiti”.
