Fads Fashion Over the years, fashion at its best has por- trayed the attitudes and emotions of the peo- ple. This school year was no exception. Topping off the fash- ion charts, at least at Scotus Central Catholic, was the ever so popular five button, forest green, smokey gray, and coal black plaid mini” skirt. However, trendy styles were the thing, as both classically old and flashly new fads took domi- nance over the students bodies and their money. Designer names such as Coca-Cola, Guess, Outback Red, and Pepe were king in the fashion world as they put out their own ver- sions of: jean jackets, jeans (especially faded ones), over- sized shirts, and mini skirts. But Goodwill Shopping was the place to be if you were looking for the old classics such as trench coats and the Blues Brothers' look. Moving down the fashion chart to the lower extremities of the body are the feet. This year s favorite clodhoppers to be seen in were: those comfy tenny runners called Reebok, short black chow boots with socks showing over the jeans, flats in every color imaginable, and yes even shoes that look like they came from a Raggedy Ann comic book. There were also some fads that were worn on the body but not on the feet. These include, even another new invention for the hair called banana clips, preppie glasses, friendship bracelets. Swatches, and yet for another year those popular sunglasses called shades. Finally, of course there were some fads that had nothing to do with fashion. Probably one of the most popular of these were the devilish little locker munchies that were so secretly popped into our mouths like drug addicts. There was also mousse, mousse, and more mousse. Mousse in make-up, colored for hair, suntan lotion, and reg- ular mousse. Other fads included sitting around at 11:30 P.M. watching David Letterman cut up our society. Top - Fashion sunglasses and Reece's pieces. Middle - Swatch watches. Bottom - Fashion feet. Right - Laurie Beerbohm, Sara Whitehead, and Steve Spale show off their trench coats and jean jacket. 14

Work money for fun For some high school students the final bell does not bring the end of a day, but the beginning of one. Not only do people have to slave over homework or go to practice for speech or sports, but some must also go to after school jobs. The jobs which students have vary greatly: Some flip hamburgers at local fast food places; some sack groceries at supermarkets; others work at pizza places, still others are waiters and waitresses at area res- taurants; some even babysit, clean houses, or mow lawns. The minimum wages or starting wages for these jobs is $3.35, and this is what the ma- jority start at, with a hope at getting a slight raise. Columbus is a good place for finding jobs, with McDo- nalds, Burger King, and Hy-Vee be- ing the largest employers. It takes a dedicated person to have a job. They must balance their studies, activities, family, and social life with a job and still enjoy their high school days. However, stu- dents do not work their lives away, they all seem to find time to go out and do what they want. This year the students proved that you can have fun without our city being filled with dance spots and music arenas. Athletic events are one spot for students. On off nights, students enjoy hanging out at Burger King or 7-11. Going to movies is a favorite activity on the weeknights. Parties, wherever they were being held, provided the place to go for most. When the town is dead and one has nothing to do, many go cruising the mains or get some friends together and watch home movies to waste their time.
