E IS World News Blues C B

As we emerge as fledgling optometrists from our four (or possible six or seven) years of training we may no­ tice that the world situation is considerably different from when we started.

History indeed roled on­ ward, and as we toiled over ray tracing problems and anatomy diagrams our first year some rather disturbing things were happening. In Beirut a terrorists' truck bomb blew up a Marine barracks killing 241 Ameri­ can servicem en. Soviet fighters shot down civilian KAL flight 007 killing all 269 passengers and crew.

AIDS was fast becoming an epedemic rather than a medical curiosity. O n the bright side, a successful shuttle launch propelled Sally Ride to fame as Ameri­ ca's first women in orbit.

In 1984 we finished our first year and began the tedious, mind numbing "O D II" phase of life. G eorge O r­ well's famous year will not be remembered for “Big Brother", but perhaps for the "Big G ipper" as the American public brought Ronald Reagan and G eorge Bush an overwhelming vic­ tory over a humiliated Wal­ ter "Fritz" Mondale and "Com e C lean" Geraldine Ferraro. Millions of Ethiopi­ ans starved to death in the c lu tc h e s of p e rsista n t drought and the savage po­ litical strategy of their lead­ ers. Almost as tragic: the summer Olympics vaulted Mary Lou Retton into our W heaties and Energizer commercials (It's SUPERcharged!!).

1985 brought an end to eternities spent in class­ room 4 and a beginning for

milleniums in classroom 1, At least OD III would b e our last year in classrooms, a light at the end of the tun­ nel. Terrorism once again makes the headlines when 153 hostages aboard a TWA flight out of Athens are held in Beirut. Later that year, the Achille Lauro cruise ship is hijacked. M exico City suffers a devastating earthquake leaving 7,000 dead, 30,000 homeless. Bob Geldof organizes the Live Aid concert, Mikhail G or­ bachev rises to power in the Soviet Union, and the Titan­ ic is finally found and pho­ tographed.

1986 marked the beginning of the end. W e would finally b e getting out into the clin­ ics and trying to look like real optometrists, 1986 was also a heartbreaking year for Boston sports fans. Janu­ ary brought us the decima­ tion of the Patriots at the bloody claws of the C hica­ go Bears. It was the largest point spread in Super Bowl history. Worse was the O c ­ tober World Series fiasco when, in the last out of the last inning of the sixth game, Red Sox First-baseman Bill Buckner made his historic error and gave the New York Mets the victory and the momentum to go on and win game seven.

Not only Boston sports fans would remember 1986 with sadness in their hearts. The Soviet Union's Chernobyl nuclear plant melted down and blighted all of eastern Europe with radioactive fal­ lout. As we sat in classroom 1 on a cold Tuesday morn­ ing on January 28, Christa McAuliffe teacher, mother, first “ordinary" citizen to be on a shuttle crew died with six other crew members in

the tragic C h a lle n g e r ex­ plosion a m ere 74 seconds after launch.

On the following pages are pictures of the people and events that were in the h ea d lin es in the final months of our time at NEWENCO.

In O ctober, 1986 president Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail G orbachev met lor a two day summit in Reykjavik, Iceland. It was the hope of the world that the super power leaders would reach an arms control agreement. After all was said and done, a lot was said, nothing was done.

Ferdinand Marcos, who never seem ed to understand the subtle hints from his people, was finally ousted from power firmly but peacefully amid charges of corruption. He and his wife Emelda scuttled off to Hawaii leaving behind 2 0 years of rule and several thousand shoes. Taking his place, and sporting a pair of stylish Halston frames, Corazon Aquino would have to face political and econom ic turmoil.

that U.S. arms had been sold to Iran in order to free A m e rica n H o sta g es in Lebanon. Profits from this sale were illegally used to su p p ort a n ti-S a n d a n ista Contra forces in Central America.

At last a crack appeared in Ronald R eag an 's teflon coating, and the liberal press was gouging away at it with a blood lust not seen since the Nixon years.

The Democrats had recent­ ly gained majority power in

both the House and the Senate, and between C on­ gressional opposition and the constant badgering of this scandal, it was depressingly obvious that this ad­ ministration would be para­ lysed for its remaining two years.

Let Us Help You BeginYour New Practice With The Bausch & Lomb New Practitioner Program

Congratulations Doctors! We hope to be your partner in eye care for years to com e.

We know that having large fitting sets of contact lenses can give a new practice a big boost. However, acquiring the many types of lenses that are required to satisfy the vision requirements of your patients can be very costly.

T hat’s why we offer new practitioners a special deferred-cost trial lens program for our most popular lenses.

It’s a combination program featuring consignments of Bausch & Lomb SOFLENS® (polymacon) Contact Lenses (including bifocal lenses) and BAUSCH & LOM B (hefilcon B) Toric® Contact Lenses and BAUSCH & LOM B CW79® (lidofilcon B) Contact Lenses for aphakia. Here is how this program works.

After graduation you may receive on consignment your first 20 standard spherical lenses, your first 6 OPTIMA™ 38 lenses, and your first 24

bifocal lenses for no charge. For extended wear, you can select up to 20 03® 04® lenses and 10 B& L 70™ lenses.

Plus we will send you up to 24 Toric lenses for astigmatic correction and 20 CW79® lenses for aphakic extended wear. You can even receive a 4 lens NaturalTint™ fitting set, one in each color. You enjoy free use of the lenses with no financial risk. You’re not obligated to purchase a lens until you open and dispense it. This program can provide you a total of 128 lenses for your new practice.

Additional lenses may be consigned for a small one time fee.You may participate in the Bausch & Lomb New Practitioner Program any time during the first 24 months after you gradu­ ate. Or, if you enter the military service after graduation, you'll be eligible for the program for 18 months after you leave the service.

When you’re ready to begin your practice, callus, toll-free, at 800-828-9030. (In New York 800-462-1720, in Alaska and Hawaii 800-828-6291).

We’ll have a Bausch & Lomb Professional Products sales representative contact you with all the details.
