What a difference a year makes! Last year's extremely popular ruf- fled blouses and full skirts were no longer seen around campus as the tailored look came into style. Oxford cloth shirts and skinny ties were worn by both boys and girls. It's neat to have the guys coming to school dressed up for a change, comment- ed Lisa Franco. Polo shirts were a carry-over from last year and seemed more popular than ever. More students were ob- served wearing their collar turned up this year, however, and the shirts also came in a long-sleeved style. Sleeveless T-shirts were definitely Hin. Although they could be pur- chased for approximately 312, many students saved money by cutting off the sleeves of shirts they already owned. The movie Flashdance greatly in- fluenced clothing styles with its off- the-shoulder sweatshirt look. I like its stylishly casual look, admitted senior Mary Cork. As soon as the weather got cooler, Argyle sweater vests were worn by many of the girls. I bought one be- cause I saw them displayed in all the stores in Tucson so I figured they would be in style this year, admitted Leigh Ann Owen. Although long hair was still the vogue, it was worn short over the ears. It shows off your earrings, explained Liz Abril. Big, colorful ear- rings were worn with matching beads and bracelets. Playing video games was no longer the craze as students preferred watching long hours of T.V. videos. Night Tracks on Friday and Satur- day nights was most popular with stu- dents. Cruising and car rallies were out due to the local strike and the county-wide curfew imposed after the flood. To be rich and successful was the goal listed as most desired by the majority of students, and Mom and Dad were named as the person or persons most admired. Ins 8: Outs ll

After much controversy, James Watt, Secretary of the Interior from 1981 to 1983, resigned following his latest verbal blunder. Joking about a government study commission, he re- ferred to the members as a black, a woman, two Jews, and a cripplefl ABC's made-for-TV movie, UThe Day Afterf' was also a subject of much controversy both before and after its public airing on November 20. The movie portrayed the effects of a nuclear holocaust in Kansas City, Missouri. A strike by Greyhound bus employ- ees in November garnered national attention. Following the 47 day strike, the union agreed to a 7.8 per- cent cut in wages and a reduction in benefits. Sub-zero temperatures in De- cember throughout the Great Plains, the South, and the Midwest, caused crop losses estimated at approximate- ly S500 million. The cold was also blamed for directly or indirectly caus- ing the deaths of nearly 500 people. The biggest divestiture in history took place on January 1, 1984 when AT8rT split into many different fac- tions. A candidate for the Democratic nomination, Rev. Jessie traveled to Syria in January successfully appeal for the release captured American aviator, Navy Robert O. Goodman, Jr. The 'te ant had been shot down over n on December 4. The death of Soviet president Yuri Andropov was announced in Febru- ary. He was replaced by 72-year old Konstantin Chernenko. Shortly after his state of the Union address, President Reagan formally announced that he and Vice-Presi- dent Bush were running for re-elec- tion. With the impending collapse of the Lebanese government, President Reagan announced in February that the U.S. Marines would be withdrawn and stationed on ships offshore for as long as necessary. On the sports scene, Baltimore captured the World Series by beating the Philadelphia Phillies four games to one. In football, the Miami Hurricanes beat the previously undefeated Ne- braska Cornhuskers, 31-30, in the Or- ange Bowl on January 2, and the LA Raiders won the Super Bowl by trouncing the Washington Redskins, 38-9. Georgetown beat Houston to win the NCAA basketball title. The opening ceremonies for the 14th Winter Olympic Games were held on February 8 in Sarajevo, Yu- goslavia. U.S. athletes winning gold medals were Debbie Armstrong, women's Alpine giant slalom, Bill Johnson, men's downhill ski race, Scott Hamilton, men's figure skating, and Phil Mahre, men's slalom. The biggest disappointment of the Games was the seventh place finish of the U.S. hockey team. They had their worst record in the 64 years of the competition. Rescuers prepare to lower onto a stretch- er a U.S. Marine who had been trapped in the wreckage of the U.S. Command Post in Be- ruit, Lebanon. Terrorists used a dynamite lad- en vehicle to blow up the building.
