In and out Students have fun with latest fads As she walked into the build- ing the first day of school everyone could see her matching silver shoes, silver purse, silver bow and her silver jewelry with a silver puffed heart. She looked like she was from outerspace, but she was really in fashion. Bows and banana clips could be seen in almost every girl's hair and handmade collars adorned their sweatshirts or denim dresses. Karen Schafer, sophomore, even made and sold bows to students as part of her own home business. Guys were wearing suspenders, but not to hold up their pants. Wearing suspenders hanging off their pants was one of the fashion statements made by all of the sharpest dressers. Not one guy would have been seen wearing spandex pants, last year's fad. On a weekend night at midnight, students went to The Rocky Horror Picture Show. In this show the audience threw rice and toast while yelling lines of the movie like, Janet, Rocky, Bullwinkle! SUSPENDERS Showing off his fashionable suspenders is Jacob Carr, senior. He talks to Susie Ruard, freshman, between classes. ROCKY HORROR Showing off their Rocky Horror T-shirts are Jason Dodd and Mike Sullivan, seniors. They have seen the show numerous times. 22 STUDENT LIFE Rocky Horror is a good way to relieve your tensions. You can behave there like you can't anywhere else, Jason Dodd, senior, said. We all go, have a good time and be as crude as possible. Students who attended concerts purchased T-shirts of the Monkeys, Bon Jovi or the Beastie Boys. It was 'in.' No one listened to Prince, Sheila E., Motley Crue or the Bangles anymore. These once popular artists are out because they don't have new albums. I like the Beastie Boys' follow-up songs, said junior James Holt. The most popular television stars were Bruce Willis, Michael J. Fox and Cybill Shepherd of Moonlighting, Most students watched The Cosby Show, Family Ties, Perfect Strangers and Moonlighting. Still popular was Miami Vice with Don Johnson. Max Headroom was watched along with the singing raisins. Only the outcrowd stayed in the room to watch the Frontier Ford commercials with people dressed up like elves, leprechauns and flowers. Scantron was popular with the teachers. By making multiple choice questions, teachers could feed answer sheets into the machine and have the papers graded in a matter of minutes. Scantron was unpopular with students who had to fill in little tiny circles for each question answered. Not only did students have to fill in these circles, but they had to have a number two pencil to answer the questions. Scantron is out with me. It takes me more time to fill in the tiny circles than to answer the questions, Lori Simpkins, senior, said. Most students will do the 'in' thing just to feel comfortable, even if it means looking like they're from outer space. I probably would have never picked up some of the things I wore or did if I didn't see other people doing them. I guess that is the way it goes. What is 'in' one year, will be out the next, Kara Kolthoff, junior, said. f. . .. V . ok. 1 K g? . W5 :D N fi? +1
