They were getting acquainted now, and it wasn ' t a new year anymore. They flocked to ball games — they gave out with loud school spirit that sent the Bobcats all the way to Louisville, and a lot of the people along on a special train. They spent quiet hours at the Center — over chess in the Bunch of Grapes Room or around a piano in the 1 804 Lounge or at the TV set in the 1954 one. And they studied.

After finals there was more snow, but Spring kept trying.
