Skyline, Venture brands?
I was checking the used-everything listings and came across a couple of possibilities for my sister. I don't know the brands though. Anyone recognize these?

There were a couple of "mountain bikes" listed that may have possibilities as commuters. One was a Free Spirit and definitely isn't a MTB - it's more like my Raleigh city cruiser; the other is a nice sturdy lookign Raleigh. Those are too big for Sis though.
I may be able to get my hands on a mid-80s Fiori racer, or a Trek 800, for Sib, as well as the possible mixte mentioned in another thread. Those turned up in The Boy's parents' garage. That poor Trek has never been ridden! If it were not too small for me, I'd have yoinked it a while ago...
