Make-believe Vs. The technology of the modern world flooded us with words, images and pictures. On movie screens we saw stars dancing to the disco beats of Saturday Night Fever, Grease, and many others. This caused us to put on our dancing shoes and do a little reeling of our own. Although the problems of our real worlds were no less puzzling, we were given wel- come escapes by daytime soap operas, Starsky and Hutch,” “Saturday Night Live,” and “Buggs Bunny and Friends. As we moved from the flashy dance floor worlds of John Travolta and Olivia Newton- John, we were confronted with the stark re- alities of the morning paper and evening news. Word of the crisis in the Middle East, test tuble babies, the laitril controversy, Proposi- tions 13 and 9, the deaths of two Popes, ca- sino gambling in Miami, Carter’s problems in Washington, and crime in the streets were a far cry from the make-believe world of the cinema. The images we saw made us wonder if today’s make-believe might be tomorrow’s reality.

Mad Over Fad Equals Fashion! In the halls of Chipley High School we saw each other wearing a variety of contrasting fashions. We wore anklets with spike heels, boots, bobbie socks, yo yo shoes, “pistol legged jeans, crinolin slips, drawstring shirts and pants, pleats, suspen- ders, disco scarves, sloppy clothes, and the Annie Hall look. We were proud of our wash and wear hair-cut in a fro. The Command Performance shake was the thing to have. Some of us dared to “appear with crimped hair. It was all treated with “Body on Tap (But don't drink it) shampoo. And, topped off with Final Net for girls and the “Pump for boys. Watching T.V. commercials and reading maga- zines gave us our image of what we wanted to be. We persued that image at the Depot, Casual Corner, The Body Shop, The Hip Pocket, the Assembly, and (Just to please our mothers) at Penneys and Sears. Rising costs made things more difficult, but we managed to stay in style. Fashions, varied yet sim- ilar, unified us and yet set us apart.
