Restlessness mars decade’s debut Homesickness, a taste of student unrest, and Virginia’s coldest weather in 30 years thrust themselves on AMA. Returning from a lengthy vacation, with howling winds and tempera- tures below zero plus snow, cadets turned thoughts to home. Impending exams loomed in the thoughts of many. Bright spot on the horizon was the team work by the hardwood men. Scaring SMA for three quarters, a final score of 92-96 hurt, but a searing victory over Hargrave kept throats sore and spirits of the corps up. Thoughts of Winter Carnival also helped.

PICTURE POST CARD results when snows transform the Ft. Defiance scene into the spirit of the season. CROWDS OF CADETS yell and spur the cagers onto a win over Madison College in the season's opener at home. Glistening Christmas trees mushroomed all over barracks when companies united and waged a battle to see which could have the best one. Red, silver, and snow on a cedar gave ‘E’ company the award for the finest dis- play for the yuletide season. Generosity was the word to describe the corps’ support of the Lynchburg Orphanage. Each year, AMA’s corps provides the money for a lavish Christmas meal, and the collection of $600 scored a record for generosity. Col. Herbert Lucus hired a U-Haul-It and carried the vast quantities of food to Lynchburg. Finally snows arrived to add to the feeling of the month and to make the boys keep a score of the days left until Christmas vacation. Illuminated boughs evoke benevolence Cadet Life — 23
