 What do Kent State, President Kennedy, Vietnam, and students wearing short skirts and peace signs have in common?” All were part of the 60s. Students chose to dress up for the 60's day and the results were head bands, beaded necklaces and even a Jacqueline Kennedy lookalike. t Having participated m the 60s day dance, Kelly Green and Chris Ma- chuca take a break to relax. Punk Rock! What comes to mind when Punk Rock is mentioned? To most students it means a time to dress anyway they want. Their clothes don't have to match and it's a perfect opportunity to pile on the makeup and go through a sudden change of hair color. Either way, the punk rock music would be no entertainment if it wasn't for the outrageous outfits. Entertaining the crowd. Charlie Grif- fith gets involved in the music. HOMECOMING WEEK IS

Individuality Counts You wake up at 7 a.m. and you don't feel like going to school. So what do you do? Students wrapped themselves up in sheets, whether they were white or whether they had the Peanuts characters on them, threw on some sandals and tore a branch off the tree to place around their heads. And so the trend for Toga Day was set. ♦ While wearing logos. Denise Whit- lus and Monica Harvey concentrate on school. Did you ever wonder how the natives view Americans traveling in their country?” On Tuesday of Homecoming Week students had the opportunity to witness the unusual dress code of the American Tourist. Tourists were characterized by their bermuda shorts, cameras, and sunglasses and the zinc oxide on their noses. A few were even seen with road maps. I Being dressed lust right for the part. Kristen Melby leads a pantomime. What walks around half blue and half gold, has several booster ribbons on his body and has a car entered in the car decorating contest? A very spirited Joe T-Bird! Many students wore their col- ors to show not only participa- tion but also to show spirit for the Homecoming Queen that afternoon. » A waiting the crowning of the Home- coming Queen. Cathy Ridenour.

Coronado's '81 -'82 fashion scene was a mixture of many styles. Represented were such looks as new wave, preppie, western and the good old Coronado look. The new wave style ran the gamut from purple and pink pumps to stand-up collar shirts made with leopard skin print material. One T-bird new wave version was an outfit of purple boots, blue pedal pushers, a lavender silk shirt, and a pink blazer. Coronado western wear enthusiasts sported lizard skin cowboy boots. Levi, Lee, Calvin Klein, Sasson, or other brand jeans; or a ruffled blue jean skirt worn with a lacy blouse. A blazer could be worn if it was cold, and, perhaps, a feather banded cowboy hat to top it all off. The preppie look returned to Coronado, with top-siders, plaid skirts, crew necked sweaters, polo shirts, conservative blazers, and penny loafers. A vast assortment of emblems could be spotted on most preppie clothing: aligators, foxes, dragons and polo players were on the loose throughout T-bird territory. Many varied fashion items appeared during the year, such as knickers, V-necked T-shirts with three quarter length sleeves, camouflage material outfits, baggie pants and surgeons' shirts. The Coronado look was typically attributed to T-birds, no matter where in the city one appeared. The Moose is Loose T-shirts; Ocean Pacific (or OP) shorts, pants and shirts; warm up or cowboy boots were a must for fashion conscious T-birds. t Sophomores Susan Maboly and Amy Robison show oil their new knickers worn with casual shirts.
