Felice Zimmerman trophies lie gathering dust in ss cabinets, Freshman officers cided to create an everlasting of the Class of '84 in a dif- way, a wreath. plastic wreath is shaped like a ki .. f reshmen present victory wreath lei with MHS spelled out on each side in white roses. Red carnations surround the roses, each representing a freshman. The entire wreath is tied together by a fine white rope. 'Tm glad the wreath wasn't real so it will be around a long x time, commented Freshman Iudy George. We got it to put on the Mustang, said Class President Quinn Stinson. I thought it up and we lthe officersl talked about it and liked it. We earned some money and presented it at one of the pep rallies right before the Homecoming game, he added. Money for the present was rais- ed by selling Christmas ornaments. We bought the wreath wholesale, and even then, it cost around S80 or tS90, said Stinson. Other classes seemed to agree that a wreath enhanced spirit. I think the idea is good. I hope that people will appreciate it in years to come, said Iunior Lisa Kreutz. However, several students believed that the money could have been used in a more creative way. I think it's a waste of money. They should have saved it for their proms, said Sophomore Ashley Turner. The wreath is almost as bad as the mascot idea, commented Sophomore Sydney Cook. The majority of students approv- ed, though. It showed class spirit. Why didn't our class think about something like that? said Senior Ann Walker. xi! by Lisa Mason Draped with the Victory wreath presented by the Freshman class, the Mustang stands proud as Senior Kristy Kissner rides the Stang.

ff! 5150. Fashions revert to focus on prep Heaven is defined by some as a state of absolute ecstasy. At several distinct points of 1980-81, one could have experienced this sensation depending on his mania for movies, T.V. or politics. Whatever the case may be, in the news events ap- peared to cause some fairly adamant feelings whether heavenly or not! More dramas appeared in the movie business than previous years. Mindblowers such as Ordinary Peo- ple, The Elephant Man, The Wickerman and Altered States started people thinking about life and the qualities of it. Almost taking peo- ple to total insanity were those wild and crazy comedies like Private Benjamin and Stir Crazy. However, with the cost of movies skyrocketing to almost 855, cable T.V. users had the chance to watch addi- tional movies on the new channels, TMC lThe Movie Channell and Max, short for Cinemax. Records and music continued to thrive with Bruce Springsteen's long-awaited double album The River heading for the charts. AcDc's Back in Black continued to be popular. Looking at fashion, the preppy look was still in with Ralph Lauren's polos and Izod's alligator shirts. Khakis and camouflage represented the trends leading towards the ar- my look. A small addition of the punk stance worked its way into the closets of many clothes- conscientious students or those who wished to stress individualism. Stores like All That Glitters offered these clothes. 1980-81 was a year of extreme emo- tions. Some feelings were absolute heaven while others dropped to disappointment. uf by Lisa Mason Polo shirts, and pleated pants were on the fashion scene. luniors Iennifer O'Donnel and Ioy Sharp and Sophomore Kenneth Smith model the preppie look.
