Each year unique fads and fashions are introduced by CPHS students and this year was no exception. Girls led the fashion parade of “the latest” with wrap-around skirts, knee socks, mohair sweaters and loafers. Small bows and head bands in a wide array of colors adorned a variety of sleek, causual-looking hair styles. The newest in the young man’s world in¬ cluded zippered sweaters, collarless jackets, ski parkas and three-quarter length coats. Steady shirts remained popular through¬ out the year. Girls decorated their steadies’ rings with angora, colored tape or fastened on sweaters with initial pins. Senior cords, class rings, and sweaters remained a tradition as in previous years. UNIQUE FADS, SNAPPY STYLES MAKE DEBUTS
