are closed today ' — snow isn ' t so bad Even though there are those who can ' t stand the sight of snow, others welcome it with open gloves. Although it may mean sore throats and colds, snow can be made into a fun thing pretty easily. Skiing, tobog- ganing, snowmobiling, snowball lights, and even playing football in a foot of snow are activities even the most warm-blooded can enjoy.

Fuel shortage threatens but students create own energy The President ' s request for lowering the speed limit from 70 to 55 did not have much effect on Jackson students. After all, who usually drives 70 miles per hour anywhere in town? The increase in the price of gas might have affected how often Jackson students drive, and the lowering of the school ' s thermostats may have forced a few to wear coats in class, but there was no great inconvenience. All in all, the energy crisis did not cramp our life style. And maybe we were healthier in the long run. THE LAYERED LOOK, popular this year in fashions, proved to be practical as well for 68-degree classrooms. ONE ADVANTAGE of the 50-mile speed limit was more miles to a gallon. 22
