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.

COULDN'T BG PROUDGR The band, the cheerleaders, dominating seniors, eager juniors, meek sophomores, and, of course, the football team, made Fridays twenty times better as they were all part of the wild and spirited pep rallies in the gym. Sitting in the bleachers while the band played the school song and cheering while class yell leaders led cheers, one couldn't help but get a clear view of what Coronado was all about. The spirit stick and poster contest inspired students to yell and cheer on the gridders. Planned and run by the varsity cheerleaders, such events as pom-pom routines, skits and class races also promoted school spirit. Although it was a time of rivalry between the classes, Fridays brought everyone together to cheer the T-birds on to victory. I think pep rallies are great! stated varsity football player Bill Luther. They really get me up for the game. Even though sometimes unruly, these assemblies were a traditional and unforgettable part of Coronado in '82. ♦ Alter a pep rally, juniors remain in the gym to cheer the football players on. 18 PEP RALLIES
