Stimulate Interest and Attract Attention Colors were the high note of this year’s fashion scene. They ranged from the newest shade of cran¬ berry to dark madras plaids. The dominant effect was a casual one. Girls rated mohair sweaters with oxford cloth shirts and co¬ ordinated skirts as their favorites for school wear. The shift reached a new level of sophistication. Jumpers, high boots, spats, and clutch purses, too, rated high and were available in all styles and colors. The boys preferred the casual look of cardigans and dark tapered pants. Trench coats reached a new popularity while tennis shoes became tabu. During their leisure time, girls sported suede or corduroy tops with matching slacks or bermudas, perts, culottes, and stretch pan ts.

Whiting Sub - juniors Present “Snowbound “Sub-Debbers” pause to chat with friends for a few moments during one of the breaks between dances. Seniors Donna Ogle and Jerry Poloncak pause a moment to catch a breath and have a few pictures taken. Sub-Junior officers Mary Ellen Kew and Karen McCutcheon dance with their dates around cheerful center of attraction, “Frosty the Snowman.” The annual Sub-Deb, or turnabout semi-formal, was held December 23 at Madura’s Danceland. Girls with their favorite guys danced to the music of Frankie Gry’s Quartette. The theme, “Snow¬ bound” was complimented by a fresh layer of new- fallen snow especially ordered for the dance. In the middle of the dimly-lit dance floor, surrounded by silver ball ornaments and crepe paper, stood “Frosty the Snowman” all “perked up” with bows and ornaments for Christmas. On a platform at one end of the floor was a flocked Christmas tree illuminated with rotating colored lights. Directly in front of this, the punch table glowed with float¬ ing candles. Beautiful semi-formals and formals added to the expression of festivity. Over one hundred twenty-five couples from Clark, Whiting, Noll, Morton, and Roosevelt attended the affair sponsored by the Whiting Sub-Juniors. The officers: Karen McCutcheon, president; Mel- by Treadway, vice-president; Mary Ellen Kew, treasurer; and Linda Hric, secretary and chairman of the dance, led the Grand March. A program was given to each girl as a memento of the occasion. 12
