Yet, in the future they will fade into simple memories as do all fads. The students at CHS, however, did not see their style as fads, but as a way of life. The mainstream of trends flowed within the entertainment world. Movies, music, and games were where most fads ex- isted. Hollywood produced some terrific movies such as Ar- thur, On Golden Pond, and Raiders of the Lost Ark. However, there was a move towards explicit sex and violence in many films. Bo Derek and Brooke Shields revealed all their talents in Tarzan and Endless Love, two X-cellent ex- amples of films containing excessive nudity. For students who appreciated good ore, Galaxy of Terror and Scanners, were two big, bloody hits. As for music, there were many different tastes. Rock 'n roll and country and western both made the top of the charts, and though the faces in each field did not change much, the way we listened to their music did. Technology provided everyone with new ways of enjoying their favorite group. Iam boxes were popular with those who wanted everyone within one square mile to be able to aplpreciate their taste in music. For those who were always on t e go, the Sony Walkman was the solution to their needs. The games that caught on usually were either time- consumin or costl . One of the bi hits was the Rubik's Cube. Despite tge fact tliat a few could solve it in a matter of minutes, most never found that glorious feeling even after hours of twisting and turning. Another ma'or form of pastime was video games, and at 25 cents a shot, it did not take ong for time to pass. The most addictive games were Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, and varied forms of S ace Invaders. Though fashion was not a form off entertainment, it was by all means a trend. Although there were no blue-blooded preppies, Ralph, Lauren and Izod Lacoste made their presence felt. Blue jeans were still the hot item, and even they were affected by Gloria Vanderbilt's and Calvin Klein's golden needles. All the fads that became popular in 1981-82 provided CHS with a First Class style.

B dW th B' Let It Sno : Bafeaiflfoifsliiii Wednesday, lanuary 13. It began to rain, sleet, and snow and snow and snow. And it continued to snow for 12 continuous hours, until Carthage was covered with a six-inch blanket of the white, powdery substance. Due to high temperatures of only 35 degrees, the snow stayed for three days, giving kids and adults the unusual ex- COLD FACTS - Rain, sleet or snow, CHS is still 81. perience of building snowmen, and the more creative individuals the ex- perience of building snow-worms. But the frozen precipita- tion brought chaos with it also, for the Carthaginians were unprepared for the onslaught. Snow chains were unheard of items, making travel an almost impossible occurrence. Schools were closed, providing an un- planned vacation for the students and teachers and in- tense headaches to the ad- ministrators who had to plan around the missed days. On Friday, Ianuary 15, however, the snow met its match as temperatures reached a high of 60 degrees. Slowly, the white landscape returned to its natural green, thus making the coldest days of the century merely a memory. u L 1' ,4g,lb fi -af I ,,,an.n nfnmgqni -a, -4 ., ...,,, ,, ,.,.,,.,4'., g .M gt, lF'i'5f ' t'?l'2Tf?lfff2-f'Sl5f5' .5551! ll .gs ' 122152 ' ,ggi 1- is-L' ,,,, f-Q V ' 48 ,W 1' SNOW-BOUND - Lana Morris, Don Clinton, Tawny Centers, and Leif Davis have to stay home and uild a snow-worm rather than cruise around the Sonic. 20 !Snow COLD-BLOODED COMRADES - Mart Ioines and Kurt Wall are stuck gn Andy's twin brother, Buford now. -N-....,,,,,,.,,MNw er--...,.,.,,, -M s .
