CLOTHES. CARS, CLASSES CHANGED AFTER 10 YEARS CAULDRON — How ya hangin'? STUDENT — 'bout half. C — What's happenin'? S — Hey. this school is really heavy. C — Yea. but it took us ten years to build this baby. Get with it man! It’s ten years after!” We re using it for our theme this year. It's really heavy. S — Hey! Can you tell me how you're gonna use it? C — Do you remember anything about a '56 chevy? Man! Back in '63 you had one of those, man. You were really the dude. But look at the cars the kids drive today. Man you can't even smell a '56 chevy around here today. You'd be luckyier to find an Im-pala or a Cutlass in the parking lot. S — Yea man. I see what you mean. But what are you gonna do when you have to compare things like fads and clothes, it could be a bummer. Ya understand? C — Naw! That's about the easiest part of all. Did you ever think about what kids wore back then? It really is kinda funny if you think you could wear the clothes of 1963 today. They would be so funny-looking, people would roll in the halls laughing. Like back then man. it seemed like everybody wore a sweater, a band sweater, their sweaters were more important than class rings. S — Yeah, I get the point. My brother used to live in his sweater. But what I remember most of all was that all girls wore long dresses and white tennis shoes. C — That’s right. And most girls wore white socks and black tiedown shoes. And wow! What about the boys and their crew-cuts? Would you like to have a hair-cut like that? Do you think that it would fit in? S — Hey! That really shows a contrast of then and now. What else ya got? C — If you really wanted to show a contrast of the clothes from 1963 to 1973. you could get two people to dress in the threads of then and now. Man, there would be a difference. I can picture it now. Here you would have a dude from 1963 with his white shirt, his cords with white socks and black shoes. And beside him you would have the dude from '73 with his knit shirt and cuffed baggies with his boots. What a change! S — What about the school and the classes? I bet I've got you cornered there! C — I bet you don't even know when the school was completed. do you? S — '63. when else. C — That shows how much you know man. Cause it wasn't completed until 1964. In fact the class of '63 graduated at the Junior High. S — You're jiven Me!?? C — No man! Just look at these pictures then maybe you'll be able to dig it. S — What about classes? People still learn the same way today man. C — That may be true but just look at what's offered today. Ten years ago you didn't even hear about an advanced physics class let alone an advanced chemistry class. And while we are on the subject what kind of English classes did you have? S — English was one of the most boring subjects offered. All we had was reading, spelling, and writing. Boy. was it a drag. C — Look at the comp, classes today. You're not pressured into taking anything you don't want to. If you don't want to work on that day and you know that you can still make you deadline it's no hassle, you just don't do it. You kinda pace yourself. S — Sounds like you get to do your own thing. Wish I would've had classes like that. C — And the organizations! Man, I'll bet you that 10 years ago they wouldn't have thought that FSHS would have its own Chess Club. Today we offer over 29 clubs and the activities that go with them. S — I've got you where I want you now. What about sports? Basics in sports don't change that much. C — Oh man, you must think I'm high to believe something like that. Back in '63 we played teams like Muncie Central and Central Catholic. We would beat 'em, and sometimes really bad. But what is really funny is t look at the uniforms and equipment that the teams of '63 used and look at the stuff we use today. Out of sight. Sometimes it's really wild. S — You've said a lot of things about the school, activities, organizations, and even sports but what about the people? Man. that's the whole thing. How could you even try to show the difference between 'em. C — That's not as hard as you make it seem. We have kids in the class of '73 with brothers and sisters that graduated in the class of '63. People like: Pete Compton and his brother Mike. Kevin and Cheryl Garrett and their brother Gary. Bill Clark and his sister Patty, and Milo Eldridge and his brother Jim. So all in all we feel that we have covered the majority of the highpoints from '63 to '73. Ya understand? S — I can dig it. A3
