iPlKES came in a range of colors and styles be wom with straight-leg jeans or fancy esses. Some new original features and accessories gave a whole new feeling to the fashion scene. Old-fashioned fabrics made a comeback. Tweeds, wools and chal- lis were incorporated into a tailored style for clothing. Dad's old necktie was the perfect accent for a tuxedo shirt coupled with pleated pants. Stick-pins were also popular in new, imaginative forms. A different look for jeans was evi- denced as straight legs were picked over bells and worn with super high-heeled sandals. For the guys there were big, bulky sweaters matched with corduroy pants. Another real change was the shorter haircut for guys. I like my hair shorter, said senior Charlie Peaden, because it is easier to care for. The trend is coming back. Dressing up for school became acceptable for the first time in 10 years, and students found that as they went to their closets in search of something to wear, they had a lot more clothes to choose from. KNICKERS and a baggy sweater give a com- fortable, informal feeling to Casi Finefrock, while Ricky Hayworth sports corduroy pants and some quilted shoes. 4 3 1 2 i Fashions 29

I 'S Not ll Routin - Q, W W-s-u 4, 30 'jobs DIFFERENT kind of lifesaver, Lisa Nations works at a pharmacy and is sometimes called on to make emergency deliveries. FABRICS are measured and cut for Ms. Nancy Young by junior Lisa Hooper as part of her job at a local fabric center. Spring, summer. winter, fall. What went on continually throughout the year for most Knights? jobs. For some it was a mandatory way of life to earn essential money. For others, it was just a way to get out of the house, to pass the time or to meet people. You could find students working almost anywhere 'from doctors' offices to the little store at the end of your block. Many had interesting experiences which provided them with conversation with family and friends. Most incidents were humor- ousg some frightening. junior jennifer Kelly was held up by an armed robber in the small dairy store where she worked, and Doyle Higginbottom reported a woman customer throwing bottles on the floor when she became irate over her bill in a grocery store where he checked. Literally a life and death matter was Lisa Nation's encounter with the police. While delivering medicine to a local nursing home from the phar- macy where she worked, Lisa was stopped by a police car for speeding. When she explained the call for medication was urgent for a patient, the skeptical patrolman escorted her to her destination with blaring sirens. When the police officer went inside to check Lisa's story, he was told that the patient might have died had the prescription not arrived so quickly. On the lighter side was the embar- rasment of two juniors working in a credit department of a large store. When they were given a list of delin- quent creditors to call one evening, they discovered names of two of their teachers. I practiced disguising my voice, said Paul Hailey, hoping I w0uldn't be recognized.
