T-Shirt Craze Hits Big at RHS 1 Sandee Burns The T-Shirt, an item as American T baseball, hot dogs, or apple pie, ruld commonly be seen throughout .e halls of Roosevelt. Each and every lshirt posessed some quality which ade it unique. All shapes and sizes i people could be accomodated by a tshirt since they came in many dif- irent sizes, colors, and were topped fby various different sayings. They rved as the American Way of releas- g and expressing numerous likes, slikes, interests, opinions, and av- zations. T-shirts were a frequent iuvenir obtained from vacation lots to display where one has been. T-shirt was a unique item of clo- thing since it could be worn so many different ways. The halls of Roosevelt could have been mistaken for a T-shirt Em- porium since so many different styles and slogans were displayed. Com- mon slogans included: Inside this T-shirt there is a great body, If you can't dazzle 'em with your brilliance, baffle them with your bull, Do it overnight for 3 1l2Qi, - Kinko's, Night of the Morp. Due to the emergence of the Indust- rial Graphic Arts Class, many new original shirts were designed with the slogan depending on the indi- vidual's taste.

Seven students are from Iran, six students from Kuwait, and one is from Thailand. When school began in September there were four foreign students in classes at RHS, while ten others ar- rived in january. According to guid- ance counselor Mike Hardy, this is the largest group of foreign students attending RHS at one time. Many of these students have rela- tives attending Kent State University who serve as guardians. Bader Alkhaled, a student from Kuwait, expressed the feelings of the new students when he said, We wa11t to be friends with everyone. Bahman Noorbakhsh, another foreign student, commented on the differences between school in Iran and in the United States. High school in Iran is more intense, Bahman stated It is so much harder there, we have 14 subjects. He also noted a distinction between the sexes in Iran. The schools there are not co-edg the girls are not as free in Iran. Bader also mentioned American food and FM music as things which are much different from those in Kuwait. Most of these students plan to go on to an American college and after receiving their degree they plan to go back to their homeland.
