A LOOK AHEAD TO THE ’80S In all of the Zebra’s never ending quest to stay updated in every way, we certainly cannot overlook the ever-present field of fashion. Arkansas is breaking the true traditional wall of isolation from the world of high fashion, and a look around the PBHS campus is full proof. Sure, there are some people who cling to the older fashions, but all in all, PBHS displays the best wearing the best. In keeping with this progressive spirit, Mrs. Virginia Hymes’ art classes sponsored the first annual PBHS Fashion Show, featuring Tracey Dennis, Pelinda Triggs, Vera Harris, Sonja Young, Jay Skillen, Susan Ma-zanti, Donna Bell, Michelle Mitchell, Audrey Marks, Steve Rice, Terri Wilhite, Linda Johnston, Gwen McLemore, Joyce McCoy, and Randall Savage. The opening act introduced the cast wearing western outfits, the latest fashion look, even in the “tame” city. Next came casual wear, which featured skirts for the girls in soft, natural colors and fabrics, topped off with a blazer or maybe a hat to add that “just right” look. For the men, unconstructed jackets and open collars gave an easy, laid-back look. Formal wear, with its elegant lines and dazzling colors gave even the McFadden Gym the glamour of the big city, “Saturday Night Sizzlers”, really made the floor cook. Totally coordinated. Tracey Dennis shows off her checks and stripes. Disco Lady. Linda Johnston moves to the beat in her new disco outfit. Macho, macho mannequin. Savage is not quite the image as Randall displays sophisticated taste. Teenage ‘Art’ throb. Mrs Hymes breaks the typical teacher mold in her blue silk jumpsuit.

Cross over. These slipper-shoes combine fashion and comfort. Army drags. While wearing army pants. Lori McKenzie laughs at one of her jokes. A LOOK AHEAD TO THE ’80S CONT. Between acts we were entertained by our own dancing Zebra, Reggie Paulk, and a group of modern precision dancers. The Human Tornadoes, under the direction of Debbie Robinson that brought thunderous applause from all. As the cast came out for a final line-up, we all knew that a tradition had begun. But we don’t find fashion just in show cases. Anywhere on campus the searching eye will spot such things as straight leg jeans, buttondown collars, Izod shirts, and this year’s new fashion twist for girls, penny loafers and the socks with skirts. Even as fashions continue the trend and repeat themselves, returning us to the days of flares and minis, we’ll still remember this year’s fashions as a year of I classicism and class.
