They're simply framed
IT'S A FRAME UP
Photo by Bruce Patterson
Grandpa used to wear them, now they're "in" with people like Ward Byers, Shawnee Mission freshman, Terran Titus, Lawrence freshman and Rick Hensley, Tulsa, Okla., freshman. Under those
narrow-rimmed and rimless specs shine the same kind of eyes people have been wearing for a long time.

Austerity is clearly the word in spectacle rims.
A trend today is glasses rimmed by what looks like gold-plated chicken wire—or not rimmed at all.
"I just don't like a big tortoise-
shell frame around everything I see" one student said.
Optometrists and optical centers carry dozens of styles, but a growing number of students reject the scholarly tortoise shells, the "Cleopatra" styles with rhinestone sides, and the big black
norn rims, in favor of the simpler styles.
Some order the rimless and gold-rimmed glasses from optometrists; others dig them up in atlics and pawn shops or beg them from their grandparents.
It is widely held that many of non-establishment, und er-30
group wearing these glasses are either anarchists, radicals, or unbelievably intellectual.
"It's a frame-up," retorted a student, whose only eye problems result from long bouts with beer pitchers. "Under those glasses are eyes like yours and mine," he said.
