“Why don’t these teas come more often?” muses Joe Dun- can as Carol Klingelhoefer parades by on her way to the Valentine Tea. King Fashion Ruled Teens Dress and Customs Cheryl Bartholomew and Sherri Bremer carefully adjust their headbands. Originating during the twenties, head- bands regained much of their lost popularity. Bright colors, short skirts, bulky sweaters and pegged pants highlighted the 1960-61 fads and fashions. From top to bottom something new was added to make the year’s fashions different. Warrenites walked the halls with tennis shoes and long socks. With a swish, knees peeked out under the shorter than ever pleated skirts. Angora and lamb’s wool were ‘‘the thing” in sweaters. The election even had its effects on hair-dos. The Jackie Kennedy style joined the bubble and French twist to be favorites among the girls. The burr and flat top remained popular with the boys. The male populace sported vests, pegged pants, bulky sweaters and ivy league shirts. For movie dates or informal dance, the young men donned suits while the girls still favored the sheath dresses. At more formal dances fellas in tuxes admired their dates who wore both full and cocktail length dresses. And so chivalry is not dead!
