Fashions from the past invade CLHS w hether in school or after hours, fashions played a large part in a Cadet ' s life. Clothing styles reversed from past years in that sloppy apparel of t-shirts and faded blue jeans were out, and the comfortable look with a touch of class was in. Cadets could be viewed getting into the look of deja vu , preppie clothes. These garments reappeared on the scene in the form of practical attire: clothes that could be worn and keep their appearance forever. These included blazers, skirts, burmuda bags, loafers, IZOD ' s, oxfords, polo shirts, duck shoes, monogrammed items, and saddle shoes. Whose name was printed on your de- signer jeans? Calvin Klein, Jordache, Glo- ria Vanderbilt, Anne Klein, Bill Blass, Levi, Lee, Wrangler, CHIC? Wearing de- signer jeans was a major trend for CLHS students. Jean wearers could be found in a variety of outfits; sweaters and jeans, oxfords and jeans, blazers and jeans, just to name a few. The shoe style varied from foot to foot but the footware that appeared most fre- quently were topsiders, docksiders, and numerous kinds of boots, both western and fashion. It ' s fun to see ways everyone dresses because every person ' s style is original, commented senior Kristie Burkholder. Worn by many Cadets, the famous topsiders make walking up and down the halls and stairs more comfortable. Carried around in the hands by many girls, the changeable Bermuda Bag can be used during all four seasons because of the varity of coverings used. «a £i ■■ ■ ! m m tn It 18 fashion

In their third successful season of DALLAS, we finally learned, Who shot JR? What will happen next to this notorious Ewing family, only time will tell. After completing Smokey and the Bandit II, Burt Reynolds sidelined his acting career t o venture into the directing field of movies. Smiling because of the prosperity of Superman I? Who knows, but Christopher Reeve can only hope for the same popularity for Superman II. Entertainment brings escape from reality k lthough some say the beginning of a new ' decade left the movie screen bereft of worthy products, no one denies the few that touched the nation ' s silver screens were more than worthy. They were Hol- lywood ' s grace. Robert Redford made his directing de- but one to remember with a reality mov- ie that had the impact of Kramer vs. Kramer in Ordinary People. Sissy Spacek powered Coal Miner ' s Daugh- ter to the top while the Empire struck us dumb with uncountable special effects and crustily endearing Yoda. Dolly Par- ton let Nashville see her heels as she departed platimum wig and all to become the belle of 9 to 5. The teen based horror flicks became a theatre staple crowning Jamie Lee Curtis, Horror Queen. Although the movies in which they starred may not win an Oscar, these people need not worry. Debra Winger stole Travolta ' s thunder as an urban cowgirl, male audiences stole more than one hard stare at Bo ' s sensa- tionalized body, jail bait Brooke Shields swam away her puberty with heart throb- ber Chris Atkins. After Laugh-In fame, Goldie Hawn catapulted to a revived comic career mugging for the camera. Dan Ackroyd paired with John Belushi, abdicating from SNL , didn ' t leave the box offices singing the blues. Richard Pryor is baaad on film but after his brush with death left his old lifestyle in the grave. Gilda Radner dealt another blow to SNL as she left to display her comic taJents on screen and on stage. Although Cable TV may have reigned supreme in Fort Wayne, television can ' t feel too bad about such spectacles as Cla- vell ' s SHOGUN, a viewing blockbuster week second only to ROOTS. T-shirts queried, Who shot JR? but NBC left us hanging until the hollywood strike de- layed the new season further. When the hallowed evening arrived, DALLAS raked up ratings like autumn leaves. Then DALLAS bore many spin-offs and spin-offs of spin-offs. The face of the musical scene changed and diversified. Young people put away their disco shoes and brought out their stilleto heels and cowboy boots. New Waves made small waves, punk flunked, blues came to Fort Wayne by way of Muddy Waters and BB King. Black Sab- both, Blue Oyster Cult, Charlie Daniels Band, The CARS, and ACDC rocked the Coliseum. Micheal Jackson and Barbra Steisand attacked the charts. Around our city, we jogged, skate boarded, rollerskated in rinks and down sidewalks. Armchair athletes watched Evonne Goolagong-Cawley and Bjorn Borg win triumphant Wimbledon ' s. Box- ing fans watched stunned as Hands of Stone Duran closed the curtain on the hashed rematch fight of the year and many famous figures took their last bow and curtain call: Mae West, Peter Sellers, Jay Silverheels, Buckwheat, Stymie, Pablo Picasso, Steve McQueen, and John Lennon. 20 entertainment
