These seven bright actors and actresses have starred in many box offices hits, including The Breakfast Club and St. Elmo ' s Fire. These performers have everything a teenager would want. Big bucks, limousines, sports cars, top agents, good looks, and many adoring fans. Their relationships have gone from profes- sional to personal. In addition to working closely with one another, much of their spare time is spent together. Due to their young age and overwhelming success, this clique is known as the Brat Pack. They are always on the prowl for parties and a fun time, which is typical of American teenagers. Working for a cause.

The public got a double dose of Sylvester Stallone last year with Rocky and RambO- Stallone also won Best Actor in the Peoples Choice Awards The Ultimate Tiaht Sylvester Stallone, alias Rocky Rambo, has become America ' s box office hero. His flag waving patriotism has caused an increase in nationalism as well as ticket sales. Rambo First Blood Part II and Rocky IV both raked in $32 million in the films ' first six days. Many critics felt these two movies were sweetened up versions of what real life drama is like. Psychologists felt the movies implied that the problems of 1985 could be solved by punching and]VJJ] }J JV Q killing. Students at TRHS had just the opposite opinions. Kristy Bales said, I absolutely loved it! Sylvester Stallone is so gor- geous, and it ' s about time some- one did something for American POW ' s, even if it was in the movies. Although many negative opinions were heard on these two movies, there are also many people who are anxiously awai- ting the ultimate fight, Rocky vs. Rambo (part 1). 7

Jk : An Inspiration Robert Wasner felt such an inspiration from Samantha that he will be making her Soviet adventure into a two hour TV movie. All American Girl Amidst the worst year in aviation history one of the most heartrenderins victims was 13- year-old Samantha Smith. Three years ago, the girl from Maine wrote to Yuri An- dropov asking why he wanted to conquer the world. Andro- pov responded by inviting her and her family to the Soviet Union. In a tribute to her peace- making efforts, the Soviets named a rare Siberian diamond in the Kremlin after her. Samantha also won a role as Robert Wagner ' s daughter in the ABC-TV series, Lime Street as well as winning the hearts of thousands of Americans. Sly as a fox. Also known as Alex P. Keaton, and widely recognized for his keen sense of humor, Michael J. Fox will be starring in an upcoming TV movie. Born in the USA with Bruce Springsteen singing the theme song. Chicken Stand to UJonderlond A 1 hit movie, Back to the Future, and a starring role in the 2 prime time TV show. Family Ties. With credits like those, it was hard to believe that Michael J. Fox started it all off in a Pioneer Chicken stand. Serving as his office, the stand was the very place that Michael negoti- ated his first Family Ties con- tract. Fox became a popular teen idol at TRHS because of his great sense of humor. He also proved that regardless of his height, or lack of it, he could still be considered a ' hunk. ' Junior Tracy Johnson found Fox to be cute and very funny. Senior Brian Ruth liked Fox because he was quick witted. He ' s popular with kids our age because we can identify with the types of characters he plays. What ' s in store for Fox? His spring hiatus is already crammed with four feature films. The next opening on his calender isn ' t until spring of 1987! J

College Bound Yes 81% No 19% Instate 61% Outstate 20% Take it all off They drank diet pop, ran after school, ate strictly low-fat food, and absoultely NO Candy Bars!! Those were just a few of the characteristics of many students at T.R.H.S. who were watchins their weight or just trying to get in shape. As the temperature started to rise and spring fever set in, students began to realize extra pounds had to be shed. With spring breal and prom approaching the need to fit into swimsuits and prom dresses became very evident. King Herb Where was he? The search for Herb continued throughout the fall, nation wide and at T.R.H.S. There were many peo- ple who fit the description of Herb at T.R.H.S. during Home- coming. Herb was the latest sales promotion for Burger King. If by chance you saw Herb while eating your Whopper you received $5,000. Aren ' t you hungry for Burger King now? was the cry across the land as Herb remained in hibernation. Who, but a person in hiberna- tion, could refuse a Whopper? Herb came to his senses when the Bears were crushing the Patriots. Super Bowl Sunday was Herb ' s coming out and the public ' s first glimpse of this legend of Madison Avenue. After about two days of starving themselves, certain stu- dents returned back to their normal eating habits. Some stu- dents had strange dieting hab- its, such as eating just ice-cream, or going on fruit juice diets. Others joined spring sports, while a few signed up for aerob- ics and Body Metrics. Soon the dieting craze spread and even teachers at T.R.H.S. started keeping track of their calorie intake. As everyone soon found out fad diets didn ' t work but only drew the agony of dieting out even more. Marrey Cannon says she ' s never dieted, she just eats everything she wants and then runs it off at track practice. Pi ' SSin ' Out. After cheerins the foot- ball players on, freshman Tisha Swihart rewards herself with a hotdos. 8 STUDENT LIFE T.R. ' s own Herbs. Seniors Chad Durren and Rodney Wagner team up during Homecoming ' s.
