Newspapers, magazines, and television acted as a sort ot medium to introduce peopie. to the newest ideas and inventions. Sayings even came and wentin trends. A few populorphrases that caught on this year included uthatis toocoildn, it's allrightni, Wharf Ct than-k , and the ever-famous woooo-! Prevalent fads this Year li showed in fashion-conscious students. Gauchos, boots, clogs, sweaters, and decorative ieans stood out as dominant g ' y y g . sitylls , while a gradual trend towards shorter haircuts became equally evident. W . W At the beginning at the year, a craze surrounding plastic McDonaldland watches set in with students coordinating their clothes to the many colors of watches. Near Christmas, another similar happening took place when a downtown Marysville business distributed Santa Claus rings. One of the most evident rages of the year was the boom in CB radios. With CB antennas popping up through the student parking lot, one could hear the familiar CB lingo a big i0-4' or breaker breaker l- ? by simply walking to his or her car. With the opening of T-shirt Junction at the Mail, the recent craze in T-shirts locally boomed. T-shirts were seen displaying popular TV and singing idols and popular sayings. As always, trends came and went . . . and stayed in the form of student entertainment. Occupying their time on Friday and Saturday nights, students hit the local movie theaters or the local cruising strip. With the abundance of cars circling from Jack-in-the-Box across the 10 Street Bridge to McDonalds and back again, the gas shortage problem seemed less pressing as in the past years. Box office hits included Carrie , The Omen , and The Other Side ofthe Mountain. With the opening of the Cal State Roller Rink, a double form of recreation emerged for students-besides skating, dances were held frequently. Also grasping the attentions of many older students, the not-so-new diversion of live concerts provided extra pastimes and enjoyment for MHS student. fads 33
