President Carter H The Post urges voters to re-elect President Jimmy Carter on Tuesday. The endorsement of Carter is based on the record of achievements during his four years in office, the fading chances of John Anderson's candidacy and the potential disaster to the United States, both economically and in international affairs, if Ronald Reagan is elected. President Carter has had many notable successes during his term, especially in the area of foriegn policy, where he has amassed a record of peaceful and improved relations with nations throughout the world. Carter personally directed the Camp David peace talks. Through his peristant efforts, the peace accords between Egypt and Isreal were signed, an achievement that has brought needed stability to the Mideast, an area of vital importance to the United States.' The SALT II treaty was signed by Carter, who has constantly advocated arms control and nuclear non-proliferation. He has made its ratification a top priority of his next administration. Carter has established full diplomatic and normalized relations with China. This development has helped to unfreeze potential cold war tensions with a nation that represents one-fourth of the world's population.

  • American Heritage Center
    UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY RESOURCES Child actress Mary Jane Irving with Bessie Barriscale and Ben Alexander in the 1918 silent film Heart of Rachel. Mary Jane Irving papers, American Heritage Center. Compiled by D. Claudia Thompson and Shaun A. Hayes 2009 PREFACE When the University of Wyoming began collecting the papers of national entertainment figures in the 1970s, it was one of only a handful of repositories actively engaged in the field. Business and industry, science, family history, even print literature were all recognized as legitimate fields of study while prejudice remained against mere entertainment as a source of scholarship. There are two arguments to be made against this narrow vision. In the first place, entertainment is very much an industry. It employs thousands. It requires vast capital expenditure, and it lives or dies on profit. In the second place, popular culture is more universal than any other field. Each individual’s experience is unique, but one common thread running throughout humanity is the desire to be taken out of ourselves, to share with our neighbors some story of humor or adventure. This is the basis for entertainment. The Entertainment Industry collections at the American Heritage Center focus on the twentieth century. During the twentieth century, entertainment in the United States changed radically due to advances in communications technology. The development of radio made it possible for the first time for people on both coasts to listen to a performance simultaneously. The delivery of entertainment thus became immensely cheaper and, at the same time, the fame of individual performers grew.
