They just don’t have the guts to do it them- selves, he said. Other students styled their hair differently ac- cording to the mood they were in. With all the different styles of clothing, I wear different hair styles to m a tch the cloth es f sen- ior Angie Madel said. It all depends on the colors and the mood I'm in.

THE ROYAL COUPLE. Tyler crowned Homecoming King and Williams and Becky Gi Ibert were Queen. A A A A Candidates share their feelings about the honer of being selected TIME TO REMEMBER A A A A A A I A A A A A A J Autumn brought a carnival of excitement to the homecom- ing festivities. Football, mums, the Bronc Bomber, a carnival, a parade, the traditional foot- ball game, and the homecom- ing dance filled the day and night with an air of excite- ment. The selection of a B-Day kingand queen highlighted the homecoming celebration and dance for both students and candidates. When i found out I had been nominated, the first thing I did was call my mom, senior Karen Simonich said. The excitement I felt was something I cannot express in words. To be selected by your classmates is an honor. Students really do care and appreciate the hard work that many seniors put into Senior High, senior David Quiroz said. Royalty gave many of the B-Day festivities a touch of class. The candidates were proudly presented by horsedrawn carriages to the student body and some par- ents during the afternoon par- ade and to the the homecom- ing game’s crowd during halftime that evening. The most memorable ex- perience for me was riding around in the carriage, senior Erika Boggio said. CARRIED AWAY. Homecoming Royalty travels in style during the B-Day parade. They also rode around the track during halftime at the football game. (Photo by Keith McBride) Candidates became closer friends through the time they spent together. There seemed to be a spe- cial closeness between all of us, senior Jenny Oakley said. Being one of the only infor- mal royalty dances, the candi- dates dress consisted of casual attire. Many wore slacks or blue jeans and sweaters. It was nice to be able to relax and dress casually. You did not have to worry about all the formal attire, senior Becky Gilbert said. While 10 seniors waited anxiously for the announce- ment of the king and queen, others relaxed and danced to the music provided byZ97. It was nice to be able to go with your friends, junior Eddie Jordan said, and not have to worry if your date was enjoy- ing herself and having a good time ' It wasanoppurtunity to go out and have fun with your friends, junior Angie Treat said. Atthestrokeof 11 p.m., sen- iors Tyler Williams and Becky Gilbert were crowned King and Queen. It was so exciting, Gilbert said. I couldn't believe that I had really won. The royal court consisted of Boggio, James Clevenger, Sam Fisher, Kim Garrison, Gilbert, John Nickcy, Oakley, Quiroz, Simonich, and Williams. Thecandidatcs remembered B-Day '88 mostly for the honor of being chosen by their poors for the first royal court of the class of '89. HJ Wendy Rice B-Day Royalty 13

(Photo by Amy Aldrich) Student fashion designers use talent to create their own clothes :• ECIPE FOR FASHION Falling apart at the seams? Students followed the latest fashion trends with two meth- ods of aquiring their favorite styles. Recipes for fashion ranged fromcasualand comfortableto dressy outfits. Students ob- tained these fashions by buy- ing them already made or de- signing them at home. Senior Becky Gilbert put to- gether colorful outfits accom- panied by matching accesso- ries. I buy dressy clothes, (such as) dress pants and skirts, Gilbert said. If I really like something. I'll spend more. A similar result made from scratch was less expensive and guaranteed to fit. This recipe called only for materials and some effort. One of senior Stephanie Baez's favorite styles of cloth- ing took the form of home- made crotch pants. They were a baggy stretch pant with a knee-length crotch. I make mostly what you can't find in the stores, Baez said. If I see something out of a magazine that I like and can make, I will. Baez planned to minor in Fashion Design in college. Junior Treg Silkwood also designed many of his clothes. By dying plain tee-shirts with colorful designs, Silkwood created a style of clothing he enjoyed. I like basically anything I can afford, Silkwood said. I make tic-dyes and I also paint shirts. Fashion Design was junior Amy Kelley's choice of a car- reer, also. She made some of the clothes that she wore for school, and made formal dresses. I have made six formals and I sold two of those, Kelley said. I also made a wedding dress last summer. Just as Mom's homemade pie was usually preferred over a store bought pie, some stu- dents prefered making their clothes over buying them. U Gina Sanchez Fads Fashions
