tsiaiaiaiciaiaie curb fr' Lui TER!!! lt was the coldest winter in over 100 years. Chicagoland suffered through forty-three consecutive days of sub zero weather with the corker coming on january 16th Con that day the wind factor dipped to a bone chilling -78 FJ. And how did the students fare? Waiting for buses to arrive or scraping snow covered cars after school became a form of human torture. Even those sacred cars that had traveled to and from school every day were now victims of the deep freeze . The winter also took its toll on America's fuel sources. More gas and electricity was consumed to keep homes and buildings warm. The RMHS gas bill for December 1976 to March 1977 was 532,270.00 However students weren't quite as depressed about the weather on january 28thp RMHS along with all other schools in district 214, closed down in an attempt to conserve energy.

'HSIQID 3 '77 The big word in fashion this year is comfort. Whether in casual or dressy clothes, young people choose to be at ease in comfortable duds. This explains the popularity of rugby shirts, T-shirts, silky dress shirts, and athletic shoes among the young men. The guys are also discovering that wearing jewelry is not an activity reserved solely for girls. The rebirth of gauchos fpaired up with bootsl took the girls by storm. Gauchos combine the comfort of pants with the dressy look of skirts. The classic three-piece suit is also a favorite. Last year's jumpsuits have blossomed to a new popularity. Pretty shoes have made a comeback, as have headbands and hair combs. And in warmer weather, the feminine T-shirts are cool and comfortable. No matter what the trend, though, the blue denim tradition will always be with us. This season has been no exception: whether in jeans, jackets, jumpsuits, vests, or skirts, young people have made it clear that blue denim is here to stay.
