From sock-like booties worn as a baby to the hard-soled shoes with heels worn as adults, shoes have almost always been a part of everyone's life. Shoes, much like clothes or hairstyles, follow trends and there are several styles for both girls and boys which are currently popular. Among the styles currently fashionable for girls are platform shoes. Many different styles, brands, and prices can be found. Girls wear these with dress pants, jeans, or any length dresses. Famolares are a brand of shoes designed for comfortable walking. The soles on Famolare shoes are wavy, There are many different styles of Famolares to choose from, but they generally run from S25 - 350. Famolares are more ex- pensive than other brands, but they're worth it because they are so comfortable and they look good, said Kelley Foster. A few types of shoes are seasonal, such as sandals and boots for girls. Sandals are usually better in warm weather to keep feet cool and dry, although they can be worn all year long. They come in all heel sizes and prices. For winter, boots provide warmth as well as style and can be worn with dresses, gauchos or pants. Boots are nice and warm. They're good-looking and they're useful because they hide my legs when l'm wearing a dress, said Martha Meyers. They are especially popular with skinny-legged jeans tucked into them.

SYMBOLS during the Travis- l McCallum pep rally and game were centered around images of the Victory Bell.

Coach Koechig was assistant football and track coach at H Travis from 1968-1973, when he ,began coaching at McCallum. Miss Norma Barber, the second publications adviser at McCallum, told about one year in the late 1950's when some Mac , ' ' , publications representatives went to Travis to borrow the Bell for a pep rally. They couldn't find the Bell, so they asked around to see if anyone knew where it was. We finally found it in the band hall, but when we brought it out to the jeep that one of our students had broughtjit was surrounded by Travis students. Not only that,.but they had disconnectedsomething under the hood and hooked the winch to two supports in this passageway, Miss Barber explained, The group was a little rushed for time since pep rallies were held first thing in the morning. 'The assistant principal got the students away from the jeep and we got back to McCallum just in time for the end of the pep rally. ln the first few years that the schools were open, rivalry between the north and the south was shown, among other ways,during Beat Mac Week at Travis-and Beat Travis Week at McCallum. Thesewere held during the week preceding the annual game. Beat Mac Week activities in- cluded bonfires, contests for the best-decorated advisories, Color Day and pep rallies. ln order to ' save the football players' strength for the McCallum-Travis game, members of ithe -Travis drill team, the Rebelettes, often volunteered to carry their books. McCallum held Beat Travis Week which included costumes, slogans, streamers, peplrallies Coften spur-of-the-moment, springing up from organized pep ralliesj, bontires and the traditional ulohnny Reb grave . Competition is strong between the schools, but the teams are always friendly regar-' , dless of the outcome of the football game. 1 think the main reason the rivalry came about was because the students were at the same school before Travis and McCallum opened, said Mr. Guy Bizzell, Mac teacher for 25 years. Another link betwen the sister schools are a few members of the McCallum faculty. Mr. W. A. Sloan was principal at Travis from 1953- 1964, before he transferred as principal to McCallum. Mr. Randy Stano did his student teaching at Travis and one of his students was Miss Diane Nelson, social studies teacher at McCallum. After graduating from Travis in 1962, Coach Robert loiner returned to Travis to coach basketball and TV footballtrom 1969-1975, when he came to Mac. Mr. Robert Lehman, Coach Randy 1-litsman, and Coach Earl Clardy are all graduates of Travis High. - . . Even though 1 graduated from 71 Travis, my loyalty is here at Mac. W now, said Coach Clardy, l'd rather beat Travis than anybody. Coach loiner said, 'Theres no loyalty problem with me. It might have been a little difficult the first year I taught at Mac, but no problem after that . mac-travis

FLIP FLOPS and gym shorts provided a casual appearance for Henry Behne, but the shorts were not welcomed in all classrooms. Enforcement of the no dress code often caught students by surprise when wearing cut offs or t- shirts with offensive lettering. MONITORS on duty everyday during lunch helped to make sure students took their trays before leaving the Cafeteria. Coach Ronald Plyler had some time to talk to students such as Scottye Poe who had finished eating and were waiting for the bell to ring. -of ff 'Mi , i' 3 WESTERN LOOK assumed by Eddie Hernandez includes a felt cowboy hat. Levi Blue jeans and a western shirt. Girls like Ellen Menaker could get the same effect with similar clothing, but they usually did not wear leather boots or hats. for boys. They are usually worn with jeans, although many boys wear them with dressier pants or casual suits. Western-type boots are made of many different materials, from leather to snake skins. The best brand of cowboy boots are Lucchese boots, said lackie Bounds of You Betcha Boots, but they average about 5275 a pair. Several styles, such as suede or leather casual shoes are worn by both girls and boys. One of the more popular types are desert boots. Many of these styles can be worn with jeans, or for more dressier occasions. Long-time stand-by, tennis shoes, are worn by both boys and girls more than any other type of shoes. They are usually for leisure wear, but provide much comfort when a lot of walking is required. l think tennis shoes are the best thing that ever happened, said Kelvin Thompson. They are best for most sports and come in a wide variety of styles, They are usually fairly inexpensive, but some of the more well-known brands, such as Adidas, can cost as much as S30 or 540. Nike or Adidas tennis shoes are the best quality because they're built better than other brands, said Rich Eulkley of Athletes Foot. They range in price from S15 to 3540. Adidas are our most popular brand, but our shoes are specialized for particular sports, When shopping for shoes, it is important to go for comfort as well as style. Although those high heels may make someone look taller, if walking in them all day hurts their feet, they aren't worth the price they may pay - in dollars or blisters, A person should make sure a shoe fits before buying it. lt is advisable to try on both shoes with the socks they will be worn with and Walk around the shoe store with them on. lf they are comfortable enough that they can be worn all day and they look good, then that pair is probably the right pair to buy. Even if one is purchasing a pair of shoes for a special event or to wear with one certain outfit, they should try to pick a pair that will go with a majority of their wardrobe. Check the shoes for quality. Will the seams come apart after a few wearings? Are those soles going to wear through if they are worn often? lf so, these shoes probably are not worth their price, even if it is a real bargain, Look for the best buy, but those few extra dollars might be worth the long wear you fcontfnued on page 282 trends and fashions
