THE WAVE OF FASHIO 1 'Fashion, it's an element of life that comes and goes with the changing times, and can 't ever be avoided, so the styles and fashions at Riverdale continued. As a few of the Beatle's oldies hit the charts again this year, so did a few fashions from the past. Almost everything came back in style except bell bottoms. Most popular of the retuming fads were the button fly jeans for guys and the mini skirts for girls, even if you can 't remember, these were very popular in your parents' days. Denim was definitely in. A very big hit in jewelery styles were hoop earrings and the Swatch Watch. Earrings were fashionable in tones of gold, silver, bronze, and copper. Swatches came in many different colors and many different styles. Bulky high neck sweaters were very popular this year also. The girls who played volleyball this year had to dress up for games and they found that the fashionable baggy dress pants came in handy. The shoes that were in style were very big attention- getters. Shoes could have been any style and fit in. Fashions for the girls included a number of different things. Hair styles that were in style included short, wavy, tousled hair with an angle cut at the ears. Flat shoes were also a favorite for RHS girls. The guys at RHS weren't plain, to say the least: they also caught the wave of style. Hairstyles for the guys included the spiked look, and penned hair in the back. Suspenders were the in style as well as cowboy boots for the guys. Styles for both genders were Guess clothes, Forenza, and Levi jackets. Style was anything but out at RHS this year, and many enjoyed being in ,

MOVIES OF THE 80'S Pic. 1.2 Fresh-Soph football team in action. 2.2 Sophomore class skit. 5.2 Senior class skit. 4.2 Second place float-Sophomores, Homecoming 1986 was a festive occasion. The theme of this year's event was Movies of the 80's . There were four nights of floatbuilding. The juniors with the theme Out of Africa , were awarded with first place. The sophomores came in second with their version of Top Gun . Third place was given to the freshmen for Back to the Future . And with a tragic and disappointing last came Rambo and the senior class. The week before homecoming known as Spirit Week started off with a bang when the juniors ruled Monday's Farmer Day. But the freshmen soon ended the juniors reign, because the class of '90 took over the next four days. They dominated Class Color Day, College T-shirt Day, Rambo Day, and Black and Gold Day. At the pep assembly that Friday the classes pre- sented their skits. And the juniors did it again with first place. The seniors came away with a second due to a minor disqualification. The freshmen re- cieved third, and unfortunately the sophomores skit ran over time and they fell to last. The voting for royalty produced Corey Johnson as his excellency and the lovely Steph Heinson as queen. The dance was held in the high school gym. The enetertainment was presented by the music of RX Express. All in all this year's homecoming was a big suc- cess, and fun was had by eve1yone,- which was the most important thing. , iv W , ,.,, ,..:, ,Q I: . : .,. Vrv M kvr V, 'Y 12.
