trends They're back W. 1960s faded and the 1970s era began, there were a lot of changes. It was the decade of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," hot pants and bean bags. But this is the 1900s, a lot of thing, have changed, right? Not so fast. A quick glance into any fashion magazine proves that designers have raided the closets of the past to clothe future generations. The '70s look is all therage. "Since I lived it, it's not shocking to me," said Carol Holm, leavenworth senior. Holm is a non-traditional student, and has many memories of the 1970s. "I was pretty frumpy back then," Holm said. "There weren't as many bright colors. Everything had to coordinate." Fashion isn't the only part of the 1970s enjoying a revival. "I'm back to saying 'cool'," Holm said. "I don't know if that's '60s or '70s or what." Andrea Moreau, Lawrence junior, watches "Charlie's Angels" and listens to early David Bowie and Michael Jackson. "That was my prime!" she said. "There's also a new movie coming out called 'Dazed and Confused.' It's about people who were kids growing up in the '70s," she said laughing. 2d, laughing. Moreau remembers the '70s and said she gets a flashback when she thinks of it. "Right now my favorite recy- cled fashion is a good pair of flare jeans," Moreau said. "I don't really like skull caps a n d plat- forms so high you could break your neck." plat- Moreau said the '70s resurgence began when people tried to find an alternative to '90s fashions. "For someone to be original, they can't go with the public issue." *Maryland acid*. *Parents* "He was said." Eventually, everything comes back full fling. History repeats itself. Though the 1970s looks are back in full force, Moreau thinks the look is already on the way out. However, slaves to fashion should not be discouraged. Should those bell bottoms, clogs, shag haircuts and choker necklaces got shewed to the back of the closet, there is a solution — recycling. "Just put it away and save it," Moreau said. "Bring it out five or ten years later and it will be in style." For those individuals lacking closet space there is always the option of trading or selling clothing. Arizona Trading Company, 734 Massachusetts St., buys and sells used clothing. Moreau is an employee, and says one of the greatest advantages to the store is the cost and variety. "It's very accessible," she said. "it's possible to trade a whole wardrobe for a new one," she said.

Now, who wouldn't stop and read that? Stories like these are printed every week in tabloid newspapers. They exist all over the world, but the most sensationalized version of any story might be found in U.S. publications like the Sun, the National Enquirer, the Weekly World News and the Globe. The story explains that, incredibly, these men haven't aged a bit. Amazing. Another reads, "5 Men Trapped in Pyramid for 24 Years Found Alive." These newspapers are available in stores from coast to coast. was the most popular. "They cover the tawdry stuff, but some of it's based in fact," he said. Shump said tabloid magazines were popular because they picked up on news before mainstream magazines hit the market. "We sell quite a few of them. Some people might find it believable, but for the most part it's just wacky and fun to read," he said. "I've learned not to judge people on what they buy." They supported day, and we get five to 10 of each tabloid every week," said Nick Shump, Town Crier employee and Lawrence senior. Shump said that the National Enquirer Where do tablolb stories come from? Why do they always seem jungle areas that are inaccessible by normal modes of transportation? Where do tabloid stories come "We get our stories from freelancers and news agencies," said John McGran, senior editor for the Sun. "We try to the best of our ability to verify the stories, but we usually take their word." McGran said he had interviewed sources ranging from Elvis psychics to Bigfoot hunters. "Believe me, those people are out there," he said. The disclaimer found on page 4 of the Sun explains that the magazine seeks to entertain and report on bizarre stories : 'The reader should suspend belief for the sake of enjoyment." The Sun is distributed in the United States and Canada, and has a weekly circulation of 300.000.McGran said. He said the paper had not won any journalism awards. "We're gun shy about talking about the paper because of the bad light in which we're shown," McGran said. "A lot of people are out to make us look bad." Tamara Harden, Olate junior, said she buys tablolds once in a blue moon, and reads the headlines while standing in line at the grocery store. The headlines are bizarre, and the pictures are totally false," Harden said. "It's just for entertainment and to read the gossip going on in other people's lives because I have nothing better to do and I don't want to study." Harden also watches tabloid television shows. Her favorite is Inside Edition. "Inside Edition did a show exposing the National Enquirer," she said. "They showed how the Enquirer cuts pictures together and how they just get stories from anyone. They're supposed to find out if the news is real, but they don't." Despite viewing tabloid television shows, Harden doesn't believe them, either. "It's all just for fun," she said.
