Well, you call and tell me, ok? Hems were ripped out and long hair was cut. Shoes were becoming mostly string, and black was the main color. Dresses were mid-length and colorful. Girls were starting to wear dresses more and more. They finally realized the boys noticed. Dresses, skirts, ond shoes were changed from brown to black. Other than block, stripes in rain- bow colors were splashing on to fabric. Boys were grabbing for the leather iackets and leisure suits. Both girls and boys were cut- ting their hair in wings, bangs which are feathered back over longer hair. A new accessory added to girls and boys wardrobe was the vest. A vest complements a nice, Sunday suit or just o plain pair of corduroy pants. Boots were back on the shoe racks because girls started buy- ing them to go with their gauc- hos, knee length coulotte pants.

Getting to School Getting to school . . . there are many ways of going about it. Choices: ride the bus, drive a car, walk, ride your bicycle, take a taxi?? In the school year 1976-1977, students at Jersey Village drove cars to school more than in any preceding year. Each day the parking lot was full lexcluding Senior Skip Dayi. No one could have said that the students at Jersey Village didn't have taste or imagination! Not after seeing the cars they drove. Each car held the personality of its owner in its style of painting and interior design. Some students preferred a comfort- able quiet car, some a souped up hot rod. Whatever kind of car they chose, though, it was their main form of transportation to any school activity, and other students identified them by the car they drove. When a student saw a car that was familiar, he instinctively honked and waved, even if the person driving wasn't the one they knew. Almost every truck was equipped with a Citizens Band Radio which seems to have been the fad in 1976 and 1977. But what- ever the style or size, a car belongs to its owner, the student, and is a very big part of high school lite. Trucks were a familiar sight in the Jersey Village parking lot. Coach Pasche parks his Black Beauty in the first parking spot, a most fought for place. Motorcycles also were an excellent form of transportation for many of the JV students. 3 W-'--S Mr. Bob Collins, math teacher, owns this Opel, another familiar car of the year.

Registration began, bright and early on Monday morning, August 16, at 8:30. All day long the upperclassman students came. A long line soon formed, and as the day drag- ged on the line shortened. Students came and then left - only not that quickly. Many stu- dents were glad they had brought pencils with erasers. On Tuesday, August 17, the largest fresh- man class in the history of Jersey Village came to register. The line outside the doors ' was the longest it had ever been.
