Winter stimulates Study, sports, hops North winds sent wintery blasts into Ft. Defiance as cadets rushed back after a long Christmas vacation. Like the sword of Damocles, the specter of examinations hovered menacingly over the corps. The natural result was a retreat to the books. Top students of the seniors were Jeffrey Leonard, Larry Reed, and Charlie Pascale in a hairbreadth race towards the honor of being valedictorian. Highest ranking new cadets were Don Malnati, Mike Sisak, and Bill Allen. Disliked by the old cadets was the new examination schedule which condensed the program from a five day spread into three frantic days of study, little sleep. Basketball surged into popularity with the exams but a memory. In late February AMA became the scene of the Military Schools’ League Basketball Tourney. Popular as always were the company dances which swung during the winter months. The bi-weekly hops shortened the snail-paced bleak cold days, and the new strobe-lighted, poster-decorated, record hops were just as popular with the Stuart Hall dates. Practices in the snow were the trademarks of the Band and Roller Rifles as they prepared for the George Washington Birthday Celebration in Alexandria. First place trophies by both units and the sharp color guard proved that the effort was worthwhile. Silver trophies for the units joined the first place wins of '68. Happiness came to new cadets with the acquisition of rank. For Honor Roll men, it was a mid-February weekend at home. ABLUTIONS are welcome in the winter months after a hard practice. Dave Kerns, one of the Parkersburg crew, showers down after a JV basketball session, BARREN SNOWSCAPE provides a perfect backdrop for a group of cadets, impervious to frostbite and freezing temperatures. Jordan’s hill receives use often. 26 — Cadet Life
