Make color ... Make time ... Make history ... Traces of current world trends have been more than evident in the United States and have been prevalent in Shreveport at Caddo Magnet High. Students here have generally made choices of the new generation, boost- ing mousse fantasia and wearing . Quess? Tailored a little loose here and a little tight there have been tattered denim and junky art-wear. Todays fashion has been the sub-trends set by the individual as seen in freshman Sarah G eyers partial mohawk and ju¬ nior Jenny Wise s orange to pink bangs.

Iranian scandal and South African crisis have been on the world political tables, while in the U.S., senior Mark Walker cites Democratic control of the Senate as being the thing which most impressed him this 1986 election year.

Years 1986-87 have seen scores of important civic anniversaries as well. Among those numbers have been that of Disneyworld and the Statue of Liberty. These milestones in history and folds in lifestyles have highlighted a conscious era and will serve as signs of the time. 10 • MARKIMG TIME
