WNWSS Winter came slowly and ended rapidly but its presence was made known. Its tolls were noticeable everywhere: students bundled up against the cold, cars stalled in the sub-zero weather, and colds that lingered for months. Snow days when students did not seem to mind the cold as much were a welcome relief. Snowball fights were planned and sledding parties scheduled for those few holidays. As a result of the cold, activities were moved indoors. Basketball and wrestling took the place of the Friday football games while friendly get-togethers filled those lonely Saturday nights. Other days of the week were occupied with the routine of school and homework with an occasional break in front of the T.V.

As the sun finally reappeared after a long winter's rest, Al-lS'ers' thoughts turned away from their mid-term academic endeavors and returned to social activities. The telltale signs of spring fever and the legendary senioritis began to appear in the corridors of Al-IS. Prom, the culmination of the social season, came late in the year, and furthered the diseases to epidemic proportions as students looked forward to their first day of freedom.
