  2. Led Zeppelin • Led Zeppelin was a popular British band best known for their hit ‘Stairway to Heaven’ as well as co-creating the music genre of heavy metal. The band • members were Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham. • In August 1968 Page invited Robert Plant and John Bonham to join his band, the • New Yardbirds, for a September tour in Scandinavia. In October 1968 they took • the name Led Zeppelin, which stemmed from a humorous conversation among several other musicians about their chances of going down like a lead balloon. However, British bands were highly anticipated in the USA, and the Atlantic Records founder, AhmetErtegun signed the new band without even seeing them perform.

  4. The Brady Bunch • The misadventures of a large family united when two widowed people get married. Starring Robert Reed as Mike Brady, Ann B. Davis as Alice Nelson, Florence Henderson as Carol Brady, Maureen McCormick as Marcia Brady, Eve Plumb as Jan Brady, Susan Olsen as Cindy Brady, Barry Williams as Greg Brady, Christopher Knight as Peter Brady, and Mike Lookinland as Bobby Brady. The genre of this television show is comedy. In my opinion, I think that this show • was a very entertaining and fun show to watch back then.

  6. Neil Armstrong • Neil Alden Armstrong was born in Wapakoneta, Ohio on August 5, 1930.

  7. Neil Armstrong “I believe that the Good Lord gave us a finite number of heartbeats and I’m damned if I’m going to use mine running up and down a street.” -Neil Armstrong

  8. Richard M. Nixon • Reconciliation was the first goal set by President Richard M. Nixon. The Nation was painfully divided, with turbulence in the cities and war overseas. During his Presidency, Nixon succeeded in ending American fighting in Viet Nam and improving relations with the U.S.S.R. and China. But the Watergate scandal brought fresh divisions to the country and ultimately led to his resignation. • His election in 1968 had climaxed a career unusual on two counts: his early success and his comeback after being defeated for President in 1960 and for Governor of California in 1962. • Born in California in 1913, Nixon had a brilliant record at Whittier College and Duke University Law School before beginning the practice of law. In 1940, he married Patricia Ryan; they had two daughters, Patricia (Tricia) and Julie. During World War II, Nixon served as a Navy lieutenant commander in the Pacific. • On leaving the service, he was elected to Congress from his California district. In 1950, he won a Senate seat. Two years later, General Eisenhower selected Nixon, age 39, to be his running mate. • As Vice President, Nixon took on major duties in the Eisenhower Administration. Nominated for President by acclamation in 1960, he lost by a narrow margin to John F. Kennedy. In 1968, he again won his party's nomination, and went on to defeat Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey and third-party candidate George C. Wallace. • His accomplishments while in office included revenue sharing, the end of the draft, new anticrime laws, and a broad environmental program. As he had promised, he appointed Justices of conservative philosophy to the Supreme Court. One of the most dramatic events of his first term occurred in 1969, when American astronauts made the first moon landing.
