SNOW? ON NOVEMBER 4! An un- believing school-bound corps can’t believe the freak snowstorm of the year. And they can’t dodge the onslaught of white. Veterans Day caps a clipped November schedule Freak weather plagued the Fort in early November. Shenan- doah’s mini-blizzard gave way to warm temperatures, and then rain on a holiday — Veterans Day, still celebrated at AM A. Solemn ceremonies on the black top were actually enhanced by the light drizzle. Nothing, of course, could keep the corps from marching on V-Day in the big Harrisonburg parade. Damp- ening the day was the dismissal of five students for drug use. Then came the death of AMA’s great First Captain of 1954. Parker Ward, president of the AMA Alumni, was a victim of the tragic Marshall University air crash on November 14. Spirits rapidly recovered as the pace raced towards a Thanksgiving break. It was truly a historic first for AMA. HE WAS A GIANT. The late Parker Ward towered over Cal Thomas and G. B. Harryman in May, 1970 just as he did as a cadet, a father, and a person.

ICICLE ROMP. “D” company men carol while scattering icicles on their third stoop tree. Decorating suffered somewhat from singing mania that hit the company. Decorating, giving, caroling, partying hasten days ’til Christmas vacation Battling designers fought to make their respective company areas more sparkling and more original than any other. Keeping the driving force in high gear was the thought that the three best jobs would add points to the company totals. Seasonal spirit and a tree that sported a massive light show earned the “A” tree the title of number 1. Spurred by the offer (from Mrs. John Dekle, Mrs. Charles Dillow, and Mrs. Malcolm Liv- ick) for home-made cakes, the men of each table in the mess hall attempted Christmas center- piece arranging. Sandy Hender- son’s “B” table savored the first place win; Dean Lohman’s (“B”) and an “F” troop table were the runners-up for fine food. Since the corps was smaller, there was fear that the Lynch- burg Orphanage might suffer, but carols and the Christmas spirit exuding from “F’” and Mrs. MacDonald caused the corps to contribute $492.15 for a Christmas dinner feast there. Food was wiped-out com- pletely in a matter of seconds when the officers strolled over to White Hall. In amazement the Livicks watched cakes, sand- wiches, chips and dip disappear. Vacation happened just in time. CANDY STRIPERS — hardly. Scott Rosen- steen and Karl Haleamau attempt to locate the mike under the Christmas trimmings. Cotillion Club men effected the decor.
