Special clothes can mean extra ex- pense; such as, Amy Jo Enyart’s $4.75 S.A.D.D. T-shirt, Shannon Wallace’s costume for Cabaret, and Janel Langenderfer's matching cheerleader shirt. When it comes to prom and graduation students Mark Krieger, dancing with Anna Floyd, and Mary Kathryn Cur- rier with her Senior rose, forget the cost and enjoy the moment.

Added Expense Although public education was 'free' it often cost more than ex- pected to do all that a student wished. Seniors especially realized that. Mary Ann Crooks estimated some of her expenses as: Prom — $137.33, Senior Pictures — $200., Course fees — $66., Yearbook- $20., Graduation (cap gown, senior key, announcements, senior memory book) — $119,55, for a total of $498.88. Underclassmen had some of the same expenses, such as prom tickets and clothes, and others like a class ring costing from $79.to $250.. Not to mention lunch costing $1.20 a day, without seconds or extras. Students who drove had the added expenses of in- surance, gas, and a two dollar park- ing permit, and that was after they saved enough to buy the car. Those who became involved in clubs and sports often spent more. It might be only a dollar or so dues, or it might include uniforms, a trip abroad, or poster board and felt-tip markers. Being a cheerleader cost Julie Laver about two hundred dollars. She spent it for shoes, tights, socks, a T-shirt, candy food for gifts to players, cakes to be raffled, camp, paints and brushes for signs, and group pic- tures. Several organizations sold candy to raise money, and it was the unfortuante salesperson who realized he had eaten more than he sold and would have to pay for most of the case of candy bars. Whether it was a dime to buy a pencil, or a quarter to phone home for a ride, students who arrived in the morning with spare change often left with nothing to spare, and parents were all to accustomed to hearing the words, “But 1 need the money for school tomorrow! If band members, like Carl Wit- tenmyer (above) want to buy in- struments, they have considerable expense; while, an interest in com- putors might make Mike Pupos or Bruce Niday wish he could buy one. 8

Designs of the Times Sometimes little things made all the difference for a total ap- pearcnce, and 1987 was one of those times. Added jewelry such as very large necklaces, earrings, or just handmade string bracelets and ankle bands, showed style and class. Hairstyles were sculpturing, spiking, and the shaved look. Name brand designs that were worn in 1987 by both girls and guys were Benetton, Guess, Coca- Cola, Reebok's, and l.O.LJ. Girls also wore Outback Red, and Foren- za; while, guys wore Polo, and Pierre Carden. Students enjoyed wearing anything that was ‘hot’, that was ‘cool’, that was ‘totally today’ ... and even ‘tomorrow’! Center Right: Outback Red shirts are worn by both Laura Raney and Shana Bagget. Laura also displays herspritz spiked hairstyle. I eft: The long Jordach jacket worn by Janelle Simon is traditionally a style in the oversized look. Oversiz- ed shirts, skirts, coats, and sweaters were worn by many. 10 Trends Katie Eisel
