Off Shore shirts are stylish for guys and gals, as Jeff Ryman shows. E. T.’s • Ouch” is symbolic for many, as his creature-like finger glows and the hearts of all do too. Karen Reid Back to classics” was the predominate theme of fashion. The girls on more dressy days, donned classy cut blouses and sweaters complete with lace, ruf- fles, and frills in soft col- ors. The mini-skirt and prairie skirt made it fashionable for girls to wear their hemlines at any length. Preppy looks con- tinued for guys and gals with shirts and sweaters bearing the emblems of the fox, izod, hunt and the dragon. Smurfs, E. T. and Garfield were among the favorite characters to put inside lockers, and on T-shirts and notebooks. Footwear also went back to a dif- ferent era. Cowboy boots reappeared as did the ballerina style shoes for the girls. Slickers, stadium and G. Q. jackets were all that were needed for the mild winter. Precision and the occasional punk hairstyle was in. The hair was cut away from the side of the face and left long in the back. For some black guys, this style was also accom- panied by the “curl”.

But, despite it all, it came out alright.” Vandalism, which resulted in destroying a portion of the set and the quitting of some of the crew, caused many problems behind the scenes. Many of the cast members did the scene changes themselves. Some skillful adlibbing was needed in some parts of the performance when a few of the props fell down. When a desk fell, both Jim McNeely and Jeff Spencer strategically interjected in their dialogue, “Those darn scrub women!” (The accused scrub women were part of the show.) Alicia Wise who played the sultry vamp didn’t have too much trouble with her costume. She said, “I loved wearing the towel!” Jess Casey who played two parts, had some fast costume changes backstage.
