Will Adam lead Erica down the path of destruction? Is Tina really pregnant with Clint ' s child? Questions like these were always on the minds of soap opera addicts, and kept them watching day after day to find out the answers. Even though the most popular serials appeared during school hours, many students would go to any length to see them. I had my mom videotape my soaps so that when I eventually got home and had finished my home- work, I could watch them, explained Julie Shepherd. She could also call the soap opera hotline if she had missed anything. Soap fans, like Sheperd, followed ev- ery move made, as if their own lives were involved. There were a few happenings that made this year spe- cial. The biggest news was when Holly left General Hospital, TecaWed Jenny Johns. Days of Our Lives fans were happily astounded by the marriage of Bo and Hope. And those who watched All My Children were rewarded by the news that Jeremy gave up his vow of celibacy to marry Erica. Enraptured in a favorite serial, Bianca Lopez, Julie Stewart, and Katie McCarty can ' t take their eyes off the screen. Soaps were notorious for their mesmerizing effect. 120 people

Such innovations have included the sundial, the grandfather clock, digital displays, and fi- nally, the Swatch! Swatches could frequently be spotted on the wrists of North High students from all walks of life. Some stu- dents could even be seen with two or more upon their wrist. According to students, these Swatches were popular because they were available in a variety of styles for both guys and gals. These styles ranged from typical numbers surrounding a plain color face, to multico- lored, even psychedelic watches displaying a series of abstract designs. They were also durable and long last- ing, as well as inexpensive. Mrs. Shirley Sandoval pre-, ferred her daughter ' s beige Swatch. It looks great with casual clothes, she boasted. Sophomore Remy Miller, who bought her Swiss watch in Europe, liked it be- cause the time-piece looked upbeat, yet could adapt to any outfit. The only thing is, I haven ' t gotten used to it telling the date in German! she exclaimed. All found that the Swatch suited their fancy. Swatches can look good on anyone, commented freshman Jeff Cox. That is probably why they are so popular. Sparkling in the sun, a wide variety of students ' Swatch watches art displayed.
