Sometimes the solitude of running on the nearly empty track is a welcome change from the hassle of school pressure. A partner to jog with is nice, but not essential. Running it into Aching muscles. Cramps. Sweat. Sound like the results of a medieval form of torture? Actually, today these are more likely to be the re- sults of a jogging session. These disadvantages notwithstanding, jog- gers are fast becoming a familiar sight around the track, along the highways, and down country roads as well. Although some people feel that the jogging craze is becoming a bit over-done, athletes of all ages, shapes, and sizes have put on their adidas in search of a dream: great legs. A stronger heart. Stamina.

Thof Special Look - 5 Homecoming is a time when what you wear is almost as impor- tant as whom you go with. It is the usual custom to wear the latest fashion on this special day, even to the game, and therefore it is a good time to look for what is in. Fashions which made their debut at Homecoming retained popularity throughout the year. Dresses were worn more than slacks, especially so for spe- cial occasions. The skirt length was flexible and ranged anywhere from just below the knee to just above the ankle. Fabrics were soft and flowing for dresses, and suits in tweeds and wools were a favorite as well. Accessories were very important to achieve that special look. Almost every outfit was given an extra something by adding a short matching vest or one of the long, knotted, free- flowing scarves called fascinators. Shoes had very high heels and were often trimmed with gold. Gold also seemed to be the favorite jewelry accessory this year with matching necklaces and bracelets in a very delicate chain, or an add- a-bead necklace. A knotted fascinator accents this tiered dress spiced with satin ribbon trim and elbow length puff sleeves. The softly feminine fabric of this year, Qiana, is perfect for this dress with an opened high mandarin collar. Fashions 17
