Styles in the mid-80 ' s express students ' personalities Individuality Fashion saw many stages throughout the year, with no domi- nating fad such as the twister beads of the previous year. Students went more for indi- vidual styles and picked out clothes that suited their personaMties. Some of the classic fads, including plaids, Mexican dresses and topsiders, made strong returns. Students across campus could be seen in a variety of styles, expressing their lifestyles through their clothes. The students pictured tt)gether here are: Wearing basic jeans, a spray shirt with graphic designs and a large wool overcoat. Lance Raney mod- els his most comfortable style. Showing her nightlife attire, Yvonne Grandineti wears a smoked aqua sweater dress with gray, ribbed hose and gray ankle boots. Mary Harvey has on the latest de- signer jeans. Guess, and a bright neon pink sweater. Modeling a more conservative style, Keith Crawford wears slacks, a button-down shirt, a sweater vest and topsiders. Wearing an updated version of jeans, Royce Medlin models a Guess jacket and jeans with ropers and a button-down jacket. For the spring look, Eileen Har- vey wears khaki shorts, a bright- colored shirt and a large red belt. Also dressed for spring. Lance Jones models big print shorts and a red T-shirt with matching high tops. Accessories also made a big splash, with Techsans often seen in large belts, rhinestone jewelry and big hair bows. — Cathy Peterson 18 — Fashion

Miss Black Texas Tech Jeri Lyn Jones, a sophomore advertising major from Phoenix, was crowned Miss Black Texas Tech on April 27. Competing in Tech ' s eighth Miss Black Texas Tech contest, Jones will represent the Student Organiza- tion for Black Unity in a variety of campus and community activities next year. She will represent SOBU at homecoming and in the Miss Texas Tech pageant, explained Don Rof- fe, SOBU faculty adviser. He said three candidates com- peted for the title. The runners-up were freshman Felicia Furlough, a psychology major from Terrell, and Valencia Ellison, a freshman nutri- tion major from Pampa. I believe Jeri Lyn has some ob- vious strengths, said Roffe, but the one I think I was most impressed with is her communications skills. She speaks well, and during the pageant she did an outstanding oral interpretation (for the talent contest). Jones follows Angela Denise Davis of Amarillo as Miss Black Texas Tech. Roffe said Davis, a Tech graduate, now lives in Piano. Miss Black Texas Tech receives a $200 SOBU scholarship, and the runner-up receives a $100 scholar- ship from SOBU. Jones, the daughter of Mildred Jean Jones, lists dirtbike riding and swimming as two of her hobbies. — Sarah Luman Alan Andrews Alan Andrews Miss Black Texas Tech — 17
