Can 't Guess? Here'si what's haparral students both new and old were decked out in their newest finery this year. Glancing around Chaparral's campus, many familar and not so familiar styles were seen. Many students spent their week- ends at various malls buying clothes and accessories. Some of the more popular and most seen items were from well-known designers such as Georges Marciano for Guess?, Benet- ton, Forenza and Gucci. The Guess? brand label was fixed to jeans, over- alls, shirts and carryall bags. Many girls boasted different styles of Gucci and Liz Claiborne purses and hand- bags. Along with the introduction of Coca-Cola classic and Cherry Coke, there was a line of Coca-Cola clothing. Various concert t-shirts were also seen many times on campus this year. However, the newest look consisted of stirrup pants and oversized shirts. Paisley, floral designs and tapestry made a reappearance this year and were hot on shirts, pants and hand- bags. Long shorts with bright splash- es of color and surfing logos were also part of the fashion scene at Chaparral. Shoes were also an important part of the look this past school year. Canvas and leather oxfords were espe- cially popular for both the girls and the guys. The traditional topsiders were still around, along with Reebok and K-Swiss tennis shoes. The stylish accessories seen at Chapparal this year included watches and jewelry. Many advertisements and TV Commercials were telling us to Switch to Swatch. Swatch watch- es and other fashion watches were very popular not only at Chaparral, but all over the United States. Multi- colored jewelry broaches, pins, ear- rings, necklaces, and bracelets were very stylish and fashionable with Chaparral's students. Besides being very fashionable in clothing, Chaparral's students were also very stylish when it came to transportation. Many methods of transportation were observed around our campus. The two oldest methods of trans- portation were observed in great num- bers. The over-crowded parking lots made it obvious to Chaparral students that more and more students drove to school. Some newer and more popular ways of getting around were also pre- sent. These included flashy skate- boards and sleek motor scooters. Of course, a favorite of students every- where, the school bus, was also seen doing sharp maneuvers and reaching top speeds in our parking lots. Chaparral students once again showed their favorite clothes, accesso- ries and cars this year as anyone could see by spending one day on the cam- pus. - Christina Friedman - Sandy Negovan - Jenni Lindner Right: Zipping around campus on the newest mode of transporation is the Honda Elite scoot- er.

The audience asked for more and so did his year Chaparral presented its first musical in threthree years with its play adaptation of the Charles Dickens novel Oli- ver . All of Chaparral's fine arts de- partments teamed up to present the very successful show. The character Oliver was played by 11-year old Brian Golub, whose young voice was very strong and carried well. The other main characters of Fa- gin and Nancy were played by Tom Winkle and Tracy Merrifield. George Rozelle and Tanya Prioste portrayed Mr. and Mrs. Sowerberry, and Billy Johnston as Dr. Grimwig provided humorous relief. Mike Meggison and Laura Vick as Mr. Bumble and Widow Corney added their talent to the pro- duction also. For many of the actors this was the first time they had to sing on stage. The choral section of the show was directed by vocal director Kenneth Tarter. Patricia McNeal choreo- graphed the dances, and girls from her dance classes performed as Fagin's workhouse boys. The director of the play was Deborah Cassick and assis- tant director was senior Derek La Baer. The play ran very smoothly, and the production staff did a thorough job. The art club contributed their time and hard work into making and deco- rating the props for every scene. The stage manager was senior John Jacob- sen, and the assistant stage manager was senior Gabriel Miller. The music was provided by the Chaparral or- chestra and was under the direction of Clydene Deckert. As opening night approached, nerves tightened, but during the three days of production, the cast and crew were rewarded by near sell-out crowds. While Fagin sang the phrase, You've got to pick a pocket or two, the fine arts departments at Chaparral saw that all of their hard work and dedication had really paid off. -Cristin McDermott -Lisa Guglielmi Left: After an 'Oliver' rehearsal, cast members relax as they listen to director's comments on their performance.
