Fads, fashions, hair styles, and all sorts of activities help to make things Look pretty colorful! T rends come and go, but none travel more quickly than fads and fashions. Every generation has its own style. In the fiftys bobby socks were the standard of the day. Now it’s no socks at all. Students latch on to ways to be different so what better way to be different than to look different? After all, looking different is the key to fashion. Brand names played a major part in the way students choose their clothing. Names such as Levis, Reebok, For- enza, Ocean Pacific, Chess King, and Esprit are big names with teenagers. Yet, clothes don’t have to be expen¬ sive to be fashionable. In fact color, graphics, and different designs are far more important. Even old standards like jean jackets and izod shirts take on a new look when worn with the collars up. Even more fleeting on the fashion scene were fads. Rolled up pants legs, embroidery floss braclets, flatops, and even some mohawks showedup. Fads were easy ways to keep up with fash¬ ion. They were usually cheap, or quickly replaced (like the hair shaved off the heads of mohawk wearers) Though there there are many ways of determining a time period the fads and fashions of today may well be the trademark of the eighties. - Joe Desper ▲ LONG, BLEACHED, SIDE SWIPED HAIR was popular among the skate¬ boarding crowd.

Being part of a couple is often like being on an emotional rollercoas¬ ter. When the relationship works, it’s wonderful, but when it doesn’t it’s usu¬ ally the pits! In spite of the bad aspects, many students choose to spend their high school lifes as part of a couple. To an outsider, sometimes going steady does not make sence. Fights, tears, and hurt CHIVALRY IS NOT DEAD as Daryl Lann helps Alyssa Moll out of his car and escorts her to class. feelings were part of the price paid for having a “steady”. But every couple said it was worth it. For some, it was the constant dating and the companionship, while others liked having a serious, secure relationship. Couples often found enjoyment in simple things. Sitting together in the halls after lunch or walking each other to class could often make a somewhat regular day extra special. Being in love might not always guar¬ antee a happy ending, but everyone has fun while it lasts! - Howard Handorf QUIET TIME.
