No, these were not names musicans in a group, but nicknames given to dominant dressing styles idence that these styles had not been overlooked by the Redskins could be found throughout the Manual halls. It seemed that every young man wanted to be in the Lauren League while the aspiration of every young wo- man was to become one of Gloria ' s girls. Ralph Lauren and Gloria Vander- bilt were only two in the menagerie of names that possessed Manualites to go out and spend big bucks on brand name clothing. Such names as Pierre Cardin, Sassoon, and Jordache were also quite familiar to those who pre- ferred to dress the designer way. Becoming much more popular were top-sider deck shoes, Indian style moccasins, and penny loafers (with or without tassels). There were several variations of all three styles wr were sometimes worn with tube socks, thin dress socks, or argyle socks with coordinating pastel colors in their de- signs. The traditional pointy-toed look was also popular and was offered by Pierre Cardin, Georgio Brutini, Pla boy, Bally, and of couse, Stacy Adam Those who took the preppy look se iously were noticed wearing striped oxfords with button down collars, kh ki pants, and burgundy Dexter loafer Redskins that preferred to drc sporty way sometimes wore bag pants (which came in a variety of ma- terials). Round collar long sleeve shirts were often seen worn with bag- gies. A knitted tie also added a tinctive touch to the sporty look. Let us not forget those who went to extremes, the New Wavers, dressed i their mini-skirts, sailor suits, and nui ti-colored head bands. Wavers wore just about anything and called it the style. Senior Kathy Diehl commented, I don ' t feel people wear New Wave clothes or try to look preppy to have an image. It is just what is in style. Yes, headbands on heads, animals on shirts, and names on the back poc- kets of blue jeans seemed to have been the craze that everyone, includ- ing the Redskins, wanted to jump into.

Redskins fire up through spirit Spirit was a large part of student and faculty life. It was that burning sensation deep inside that made Man- ualites push themselves. Cheerleaders added to the spirit during pep sessions. They also boost- ed athletes by improving morale. Many teachers and staff members, some graduates of Manual themselves, have passed their spirit down to the students of Manual today. Coaches gave athletes not only les- sons but also encouragement and spirit. Because of the care and enthusiasm of coaches, many Redskins felt the de- sire to work hard and give that extra effort necessary to make them winners. But spirit was found in many other areas as well. It could be found in the classrooms, in clubs and service or- ganizations, and even in the offices where many Manual graduates and Manual boosters filled the jobs that kept the school moving ahead. With so many reasons for students and staff to keep their spirit high, it was not necessary to be on a winning team, just being Redskins kept us fired up. TESTING ONE, TWO, THREE ...
