BY ADELAIDE GANTT Teenage girls wearing hog washers will probably never scrub a pig nor will the ones dressed in football jerseys ever run a touchdown play. These out fits are the girls’ current a- daptions of casual, all-purpose wear. Hogwashers are revolutionized overalls. They are designed to fit and are colored green, yel low or faded blue. “We don’t know who named hog washers,* confessed Carol Hat ton, sophomore at Clinton High School. “The fad started in Jo anna and caught on here about the middle of the summer. Hog washers come long, like regu lar overalls, so we have to cut them off above the knee and fray the edges." Catherine Boyle, a junior, added that hogwashers have really gotten expensive since teenagers adopted the style. “I bought mine last summer for eighty-eight cents and now they cost from five to twelve dollars.’ Blue jeans, cut off to bermuda length and heavily frayed where the hem would ordinarily be, are another of the girls’ favorite styles. The more fortunate top these with authentic football jer seys, gifts of their original own ers. If the girls are not that well acquainted with football players, they purchase simulated football jerseys or wear their blue jeans with a brother’s cast-off shirt “We wear hogwashers or blue jeans for almost everything -- doing homework, running errands or practicing cheerleading,’said senior Jan Alexander. “For hot weather, we also have mini dresses and jump suits. “Some mini dresses are just dresses and some we wear over ruffled shorts, with only the ruf fle showing, but that’s mainly for the beach. Jump suits are shorts and shirt made in one piece so you can jump in and be ready to go.’ Shoes to go with these outfits are tennis shoes -- “tenny pumps’ -- either without laces or laced up backwards so they can be slipped on and off more easily. The teenagers’ school apparel is more conservative, but still clannish as ever. Girls as well as boys have their initials monogrammed on almost every outfit Monograms, how ever, have traveled from the tra ditional shirt pocket for boys or blouse collar for girls to the left cuff of a long-sleeved shirt or blouse. Others can be found on the left hip pockets of boys’ pants ed pigtails, a favorite style for tong hair because i CASUAL — Modeling the latest in casual attire for Clinton's teenagers hair because it’s cool; and Jan Alex- are, left to right, Carol Hatton in ander in a hand-me-down football yellow hogwashers and a matching, jersey, cut-off jeans and tennis shoes checked shirt; Catherine Boyle, with no laces, wearing a mini dress and unbraid- or in the same place on the girls’ on the left leg of solid-colored hogwashers and cut-off jeans, jumpsuits.’ “We turn our sweater cuffs under so the monogram on blouse cuffs will show,’ explained Jan. “Boys do the same with their shirts and sweaters.’ Carol added that monograms are always worn on the left side. “Other good spots for a girl’s initials are on the front pocket of a skirt or arranged verti cally on the left front of a pull over sweater. We also wear them And even the sweaters are dif ferent. Now teenagers were al paca rather than wool or syn thetics, “because alpaca’s neater and less bulky.’ With alpaca sweaters, the girls wear kilts and knee socks; boys team their alpacas wRb-plaM or checked pants and no socks.
