Hello Polo, See You Later Alligator! Oh, if only we could bring hack the good old days, is a phrase often heard from the older generation. They tell us of bobby socks, ducktailed haircuts, poodle skirts and leather jackets. Sock-hops were the ‘in thing, as well as meeting friends at the local hamburger stand after school. Music from names such as Jerry Lee Lewis, and Bill Hailey and the C omets were popular sounds of the day. Times change and fads change with them. Even the fads that just last year paraded down the halls will soon be past memories. Gloria Vanderbilt. Calvin Klein, and Jordache sold millions of jeans to teenagers striving for the ‘in’ look. Polo's and Izods complemented the designer jeans and Nike tennis shoes completed the outfit. Then came the sailor look; Boys and girls alike wore sailor shirts, pants and hats. The Olivia Newton-John look was popular, and girls flocked to have their hair cut just like hers. Guys and girls both were seen with bandanas wrapped around their heads. This year's fads look a bit more sophisticated, but yet, quite the same. The fads of yesteryear and present year seem closely related and yet very distinct. If we could see a mirror into the years ahead, it would be interesting to see what that future generation thinks of our fads, and what they had set as their trends for the day. Mary Veitch V
