School enforces v no hats rule Enforcement of the school ' s no hats rule left heads uncovered, showing a variety of short, medium and long hair, small and large afros and corn-row braid designs. Adding to the fashion scene, girls wore anything from worn-out jeans to stylish knee-length skirts. Some stu- dents sported farmer overalls or jeans rolled up to the knees, often revealing brightly colored or patterned socks and wedge-heeled shoes. Both guys and gals wore high-waisted pants, usually with jackets or bulky sweaters. Working after school or on week- ends, students clerked, cashiered, waited tables, pumped gas and babysat to earn always needed money. Books, clothes, movies, concerts, dances, school games and personal items all needed to be paid for, and the hard-earned money disappeared all too quickly. ► Ripple students wear anything from recy- cled denim to the new, stylish clothes.

Fall highlights start of school To many of Ripple ' s 1,517 students, it seemed that fall began with school in- stead of the end of September. On Sep- tember 3, 495 freshmen, 426 soph- omores, 417 juniors and 284 seniors reported to guidance centers. Going back to school proved to be not all that bad, because with autumn came many annual school events. Foot- ball games, Homecoming, the Musical, Veterans ' Day and Teachers ' Conven- tion highlighted the fall season. Many Ripplites discovered that they weren ' t really too old to play in the leaves, and they burst out of school af- ter the last bell to enjoy the beautifully crisp autumn weather. Weekend activities included bon- fires, leaf rakes and touch-football games, and fall favorites were pumpkin carving and trick-or-treating on Halloween. ► EJthonia StrickJen carves a ack-o-Iantern for the Halloween trick-or-treaters. ▼ in a grassy field on a brisk autumn day, Ja- nice Victor has fun throwing a frisbee whiJe Jackie Dodd drives her gasoline powered mudbuggy. 14 Student Life
