Westlake Goes Punk Marty Morrison, Sonya Hall, and Tim Myers show off their punk hair style. Fads come and go whether they be designer jeans, shoestrings with pictures, alligator shirts, or certain hairstyles. Keeping with the trend, Westlake students have tried the latest fad in hairstyles — punk. The punk craze swept WHS students off their feet. The punk haircut is short enough on top to make the hair stand up, and is also cut above or across the ears. Girls with long hair kept their full length in the back, while the top and sides were cut “clean away.” Whether the fads require forty dollars for a pair of jeans or a trip to the barber for a haircut, Westlake students always manage to “keep up with the times.” Paul Jordan's hair “Stands Up” on top as a punk hair cut should. Janice Bray (left) gives a big smile of approval for her new hair cut. Student Life 25

Westlake’s Version Of “Fame” MOSSVILLE UNLIMITED Patrick Benjamin, Jennifer Charles, Lucie Du-hon, Marvin Hester and Mary Williams all have something in common besides being seniors. They make up the Mossville Unlimited Dance Group, along with their sponsor Mrs. Barbara Lee. The dance group performs modern dance routines. These students have been dancing since 1979 when they began performing in the 9th grade at Mossville Jr. High for holiday assembles. In those four years the group lost a member, gained one and lost him, but after going through all that, those that stayed are “closer now than before” according to Lucie Duhon. The dance group develop all the steps in their dances themselves. When the members work out a dance, they find new steps to put with the ones they already know. To find new steps they watch television and remember the steps, and put them together with others to form new ones, or just make up their own. The dance group tries to do everything at least once because they feel nothing is too hard. The members of the Mossville Unlimited Dance Group are different in many ways. Each one tries to do his share to make the dance group successful. According to Patrick Benjamin, the dance group is “a challenge” to him and the other members. Marvin and the girls are practicing for their next dance. Mary Williams, Lucie Duhon, Marvin Hester, Jennifer Charles, and Patrick Benjamin, not shown.
