Color means different things to dif- ferent seniors according to the moods and feelings in their changing surround- ings. What was the favorite mood set- ter? Blue. yellow. green. silver. brown. purple. black, orange. each hue had its own meaning. For instance. if a senior liked blue. it meant that he was a very mellow person. Blue in a room gave a feeling of freedom and relaxation. To a certain extent some shades of green pro- duced the same effect. lf red was a favorite color. he was pre- pared for action! This bright color was usually too stimulating to be near any length of time according to seniors. Black was supposed to be the combi- nation of all colors. This is true. but stop and think for a minute. how beautiful the shiny black Chevy pickup was. In the clothing line, black seemed to go with any other color. whether it was a simple top or a long silky skirt. Yellow was the most cheerful of all colors. On a sunny day think how nice and pleasant everyone was. but when the sun wasn't out. seniors' moods changed to a kind of depression. -KeHyVVHde l5J Vicki Cheek. scnior. arranges some cards at the Arizona Bank. where she is a COE worker.

COE coordinator and business instructor. usually presses her nose up the window every morning as she watches students arrive for classes. Keeping with the beat of the times, seniors kept their car stereos tuned to stat' ins KUPD, KNIX, KDKB. and KBBC. Bebopping all the way to school, students jammed to the sound of their favorite tunes. Fleetwood Mac's Dreams, was the top favorite for seniors as they dreamed visions of com- mencement day. The Eagles' Life in the Fast Line was another favorite for the seniors' fast life style. Keep It Coming Love was another fad from KC and the Sunshine Band. Every generation strives to be something, but '78 sen- iors wanted to be every- thing. Andy Gibb's single, I Just Want to Be Your Everything. proved that by eating fourth out of the sen- iors' Top 10. On and on. the seniors kept trying. and they smiled when they felt like crying. The seniors did succeed and Steven Bishop's hit, On and on. just may have been the motivating force. Mellowing out a big. Handyman, by James Taylor, was frequently tuned in on the class of '78's radios. Emotions came through- out high school, both in life and music. Best of My Love, recorded by the Emotions was hummed many a time by seniors. Just How Much Love? is The Best of My Love may have been a question for seniors. Leo Sayers' How Much Love? created a hit and a bit of thought. Two more favorites for seniors included Brick- house. by the Commo- dores and You Light up My Life by Debbie Boone. The '78 seniors lit up many lives during their years at school. Where did the seniors find their favorites? Fifty percent of them tuned to KUPD, 25 percent to KDKB, 20 percent to KNIX, and five percent to KBBC. Twenty years from now. music may change, and rock and roll will have come and gone, but the '78 sen- iors will never forget the songs that kept their school memories in tune. - Sue Vaughn Take 13 Senior Closeups
