Winter Sports Week- usuocessg enthusiasm The Cheap Detective, a comedy movie was shown Monday to tip off Winter Sports Week. A keen and active interest set the atmosphere, as did the long-awaited snow that came down so radiantly but so furiously the week before. And an extra bit of happiness was in the air with Valentine's Day at the week's end. Everyone took part in making it a most felicitous week. The freshman class sold sweet tarts for sweethearts in the con- course and the Advanced Foods class sold sugar cookies, in the shape of hearts of course. And it just wouldn'g have been Valentine's Day without the silk rose and Carnation sale spon- sored by DECA. Flowers were then delivered to lucky recipi- ents on that special day. ' As the week went by, students showed their active support and spirit in the many activities STUCO had so sufficiently planned. Overall the week was a real success. It went very well, we were pleased with the participation both by the partici- pants and the classes which showed their enthusiasm. said Bryan Reusser, STUCO President. Like always, different activities appealed to different stu- dents. Students showed their spirit by the way they dressed Tuesday, as it was overall, cowboy hat and sunglasses day. Wed- nesday students wore their favorite T-shirt. But for everyone the highlight of the week was the Winter Olympics on Wednesday. Nlany events took place and the com- petition between the classes and the faculty was evident. Winners of the events were as follows: With the clothespin held between the knees, juniors took first, seniors and sopho- mores tied for second, freshmen-third -and faculty-fourth. The dropping of the ping pong ball on the pop bottle awarded the juniors with first, seniors-second, faculty and freshmen tied for third and sophomores-fourth. The ping pong ball on ramp placed the juniors with first, seniors-second, faculty-third, freshmen-fourth and sopho- mores-fifth. The faculty took first place in throwing the football into the basket and the seniors followed with second, sophomores-third, juniors-fourth and freshmen-fifth. The juniors captured first place passing the orange by the neck, sophomores-second, seniors-third, freshmen-fourth and faculty-fifth. Hitting the peanut down the court with a flyswatter put the juniors with first place again, seniors-second, faculty-third, freshmen-fourth and sophomores-fifth. The total score in the Olympics honored the juniors with first, seniors-second, faculty-third, sophomores-fourth and freshmen-fifth.
