Since most school districts were laid out by neighborhoods, it was determined that there should be cross town bussing to fully integrate the urban schools. (Difficulties that arose from the forced bussing was revealed in the movie Remember the Titans- 2000)

 THE VIETNAM LOTTERIES  A lottery drawing - the first since was held on December 1, 1969, at Selective Service National Headquarters in Washington, D.C. This event determined the order of call for induction during calendar year 1970; that is, for registrants born between January 1, 1944, and December 31, Reinstitution of the lottery was a change from the "draft the oldest man first" method, which had been the determining method for deciding order of call.  There were 366 blue plastic capsules containing birth dates placed in a large glass container and drawn by hand to assign order-of-call numbers to all men within the age range specified in Selective Service law.  With radio, film, and TV coverage, the capsules were drawn from the container, opened, and the dates inside posted in order. The first capsule - drawn by Congressman Alexander Pirnie (R-NY) of the House Armed Services Committee - contained the date September 14, so all men born on September 14 in any year between 1944 and 1950 were assigned lottery number 1. The drawing continued until all days of the year had been paired with sequence numbers.

 The 1970s created a perfect musical bridge from the rebelliousness of the 1960s and the happy songs that are characteristic of the 1980s.
