h Mall Town Center attracts teens By Alan Reeves ith the advent of Manhattan Town Center, the Little Apple was thrust into a new era of shopping. The long-awaited mall finally made its official debut Oct. 26. The result of nearly 20 years of con- templation, anticipation, and planning, the mall is now a visual structure in down- town Manhattan. . 4 JW ,,,,,...,,, , ,,,. .,,, ,,,,r. , T ' .1 92 The mall presented many new opportunities. The foremost, and certainly the most obvious, was a nice setting to spend money. l think the mall is just a wonderful place, said Kathy Cornwell, manager of the Brass Buckle. With many people in one area, you can have great shopping. r With its opportunities for eating, shopping, and socializing, the mall was welcomed by MHS students. It's got panache. lt's something new, said senior Mitch Janasek. Some MHS students also secured one of the 600 jobs offered at the mall. Working at the mall is fun because I get to see a lot of people and wave to Krista lFreyl, who works across the mall from me, said Nanette Pelletier. The S24 million structure eliminated the problem of parking with 1,700 of its own parking spots. The Manhattan Town Center, though certainly unique to Manhattan, was better able to emphasize this point by using as its logo a rosette taken from a cornerstone of one of the previous buildings. The mall serves ap- proximately 155,400 residents in a 30-mile radius. CHOICES. Manhattan Town Center offers two department stores as well as fast food restaurants and specialty shops, including Musicland where Brian Abbott looks at compact discs. lphoto by Holly Lambertl l l y ' T 7' Q . ti ,zu , I.

are IO... M ORP reverses fashion styles By Heather Riley pproximately 200 students dressed in their worst attended IVIORP, the Student Council- sponsored backwards prom Dec. 5. Dare To Be Stupid was the evening's theme with Bryan Johnson and Angie Bead reigning as king and queen of the most outrageous costume contest. The royalty received gift certificates from Krazy Kris's, of course. Evening activities began with the girls treating their dates to new dining ex- periences, including a meal at Suds y'r Duds, burgers at Hardee's and a candlelight dinner featuring pizza and Coke. Guests then arrived at the middle school gym decorated tastefully in trash by StuCo members. Refreshments were NABS drinks sold by SADD. The dance itself was, according to StuCo President Angie Erpelding, a success. lt's kind of a different dance, so it gives everyone a chance to be PAHTYANIMALS. MORPgoers hamming it up for the camera as they take a pause from dancing are Scott Wissman, Tim Adams, Fernando Tonda, Erica Cocke and Michael Fuentes. lphoto by Becky Brown, print by Lindy Youngl 20 MORP wild. The activities of the evening were well received, especially by Queen Angie, who said that during her crowning l felt like I was on top of the world! But ac- tually l was on Brett's lWallerstedtl shoulders! Despite the lack of planning time, dance chairman Bruce Broce felt StuCo was successful in its efforts and was already looking forward to next year! NUF GNIVAH.
