To the 3.7 million American teen- agers wearing braces on their teeth, these names can be heard constantly. In the early seventies, when one got braces, he became somewhat of an outcast. He usu- ally went from class to class with his mouth closed, not talking or smiling, for fear that someone would catch a glimpse of his A GBS'ER MODELS the band-and-bar style of braces. gift . -,, if ' 'f A nw Q l L. l 1' X F9 Q rf' , 1 it , ,f 2 if Q .- 4.

Nowadays, though, when one walks through the halls at GBS, he will see more smiling, talkative people wearing those once loathed ob- jects of discomfiture. One can even see many adults with braces on their teeth. As a mat- ter of fact, people as old as 50 or 60 years old can still have braces, according to Dr. John- son, an orthodontist in North- brook. The youngest person he has ever worked on was a five- year-old, although he didn't get braces, just an orthodontial ap- pliance. There are three different types of braces: the square braces that are cemented to the front of the tooth, the plastic style and the band-and-bar kind. The main problems of braces are that you can't close your mouth all the way, you can't drink through a straw easi- ly, and there are some foods that you're not supposed to eat, explained freshman Sue Cousins. Other things that high schoolers complain about are that people think that people with braces are younger than they really are, foods get caught in them, they hurt' for a while when they're put on and each time that they're tightened, and , A x , ' iz Q F .

About two years fthe average length of time that braces are wornj and anywhere from 31,500 to 53,000 later, the braces finally come off. Even though teens claim to suffer through the duration of their braces, most agree with the feel- ing that everything is worth it. As freshman Jill Rosengard put it, They lbracesl were a pain because l had to go to the orth- odontist all the time and get them tightened, but they're off now and it's great! It was all worth it!

Q Frosh views Iranian situation lt happened in September of 1978. Riots and demonstrations in Iran spotted the news like a bottle of India ink tipped over. Total chaos lead up to the overthrowing of the Shah Mo- hammed Reza Pahlavi, more common- ly known as the Shah of Iran, in the end of January 1979. The Shah left Iran in exile at the end of January and was replaced by the Ayatollah Khomeini, a religious lead- er, in the beginning of February. Un- der Khomeini's rule, bizarre occur- rences began to take place. The most bizarre occurred when some Iranian students, backed by the government, captured the American Embassy in Iran and took 62 people as hostages. Back in January 1979 coinciding with the Shah s exile many families fled the country too. The Amin family minus Mr. Amin was among those which fled from Iran. After living in Iran for seven years they returned to the United States be- cause according to the family the government was ruining everything. Because of the political problems the country was collapsing. When the fam- ily left the police force had been re- placed by teenagers with guns stand- ing in the streets. Just a week after they left Khomeini came into power. ln June 1979 Mr. Amin joined his family. Camron Amin the older of the two children in the Amin family is a fresh- man at GBS. Although he is a United States citizen he did have most of his primary schooling in a private, British school in Iran. The Shah's rule wasn't as bad as the Anti-Shah people lead the public to believe, declared Camron. He tried to be fair and objective, and he got things done. The main differ- ences, he continued, between a de- mocracy and a dictatorship are that you can be assigned to a position f job, rather than choosing one, and the peo- ple have no political clout, through voting or otherwise. There is one man with the absolute word. The social classes in Iran were very defined- upper and lower. The Amins, being in the upper class heard nothing of the persecutions until the revolution began. At that point they heard a lot about what had been happening. The revolution on the other hand was as bad if not worse than its por- trayal in the United States. The actual riots were much more violent than the way that they had been reported to us let alone the ones that werent even reported felt Camron. Camron believed that President Carter handled the early stages of the U.S. Embassy hostage crisis properly. Camron ruled out the option of using military force but stated that the Americans had to deal with the situa- tion firmly without resorting to vio- lence. Freshman Camron Amin an ex-resident of Iran does his biology homework. 'Vs M217 Q . V 12,1 A -4 tr-fa' 'Wi V' fr f -7 'Nu' . QS? N xi' 'Q-1' iiie , - -ef K- ag 53
