Fads, fashions reflect trends Student attire at Boyertown varied from casual clothes to formal fashions. While the school had no strict dress code, students generally seemed more concerned about their ap- pearance. More girls were seen in dresses and pantsuits. Boys, who used to believe that the high school uniform was blue jeans and sneakers, were often seen wearing dress pants and leisure shirts. For school, girls followed the new styles by wearing gauchos, vests, and three-piece suits. High leather boots and all types of clogs were popular footwear. Several boys joined the trend by dressing in jumpsuits, bib overalls, and rocker shoes. Though students increased their wardrobes with the new styles, they still left room for the ever-popular jeans. Popular hairstyles included the wedge cut and the Tony Tenille look. Many more students - boys and girls - also tried permanents for a curlier look. Accessories included double- pierced ears -two small earrings worn in one ear. In purses, many girls chose big cloth or canvas styles that could be slung over a shoulder. Most of those bags were decorated with initials in bright fabrics. Thoughts of the senior prom and junior dinner dance switched at- tention to more formal attire. Cub sponsored its third annual fashion show on March 30. It was held in the dining room. Students modeled the latest spring fashions, ranging from jumpsuits to wedding gowns. Boys were given a preview of the new tuxedo looks. An additional feature was the modeling of dresses and casual wear. Fads and Fashions

luniors present look at future Welcome to the Monkey House, the junior class play, was presented on March 31 through April 2 at the junior High East auditorium. Directed by Mrs. Donna lorgensen, the play was the story of an amateur theater group who per- formed three plays depicting life in the future. The first play, Harrison Bergeron, was science fiction based on the con- cept that everyone is equal. Euphiophone featured a mad scientist who devised a radio that could pick up sounds in space. The program ended with the staging of The Kid Nobody Could Handle, a story involving the ac- tions of a juvenile delinquent, With a cast of nineteen juniors ranging from amateurs to Thespians, the play proved to be a large success, with Friday night's performance having the largest attendance.
