As a general rule a 13x9 pan will feed 8 people. This is a medium-size serving. You will need to use 9 pans in order to feed the 70 people.
My rule is for a 9 x 13 which makes 14 small pieces (should be the same for a 10 x 13).
If it is all women, I figure 1 piece per person if there are other main courses and a lot of sides. If this is the main dish and limited sides, 2 pieces per person. If there are a mix of men and women or teenagers, I up that two 3 slices per person if there are other main courses and 4 if there are not.
Another factor to think about is if if you are serving to someone or someone is taking what they want. If it is take what they want, always make at least 1.5 times more than you would than if you are serving to people and can dish ask one slice or two.
To me there is nothing worse at a party than coming up short. I would rather take containers and let people take leftovers home than be short.
