Augusta Ware, Pat Flores, Valencia Seay, Doris Duncan, and Pam Barnett wear chokers, a new fad this year, to complete their everyday apparel with touches of color. Mary Tarkane, wearing a fake fur coat in mini length, converses with Helen Sormaz and Becky Huerta who prefer the longer styles of maxi and midi lengths. Gazing out the window, Jerralyn Shootes de¬ cides that her poncho will be suitable to pro¬ tect her from the spring winds. Dr. Grigsby discusses with Cathie Predaina, Pat Tonevich, Mary Jean Kennedy, Millie Ivankovich, Helen Sormaz, and Pat Wisneski their everyday apparel of vests and blue jeans. Boots are not only for bad weather, but for fashion too. They vary from wrinkled leather to crushed suede in black, brown and white, fastening with buckles, laces and zippers.

Style says wigs, boots go to school A variety of wigs is modeled by Mary Tarkane, Pam Carter, Debbie Cinder, and Marsha Morris. Student “get it together” this year with new fads. Hemlines were long, medium and short; brightly colored ponchos were in; gaucho pants were in; chokers were in; and high style boots and shoes appeared. For decoration, girls wore snoods in their hair. For outdoors, matching scarfs and haU accented the mini and midi coats. Snoods are a new sight in fashion at Mann this year. Becky Huerta is wearing one that she knitted herself. Discussing the next date for the basketball game, Phyllis Ashmore and Pat Flores are caught in the picture wearing gaucho pants. Matching scarfs, hats, and mittens helped fight the cold during winter months.

12 Seniors see light on school from teacher’s side of desk Usually off limits to students, the teachers’ lounge was popular with neo¬ phyte teachers as 156 seniors took charge of classes and administrative offices. Traditional Senior Day activities took place November 20 when students received first-hand experience in lesson planning, conducting class discussions and coping with discipline problems. Supervised by Mrs. Barbara Loy, se¬ niors were given teaching assignments in preferred subjects. Problems encountered during senior teaching day are discussed in the teachers’ lounge by Gaye Herrold, Ruth Narvaez, Robin Marcus, James Johnson and Debby Troxell. Chester Elliot tests the electrical conductivity of various solutions in chemistry. “Calling roll is the easiest part of this job,” thinks senior P.E. teacher Jean Byron. “Don’t get smart with me,” says Edwina Adams, flourishing her small stick menac¬ ingly. Barbara Powell uses her six years of math trying to aid Richard Vasquez with a problem.
