 SENIOR SNEAK DAY, OR SNOWBOUND IN WORLAND Spirits were high as the seniors left for Cody chaperoned by Mr. Nick Moore and Mrs. Joe Genereaux. As they went through Shell Canyon, they stopped to admire the lovely falls and climb on the rocks. The destination, Cody, was reached late in the afternoon. Motel facilities included a heated, indoor swimmingpool. After ashop- ping expedition, all hurried back to the motel and a before-dinner swim. Saturday they had a class dinner, and the manager of the res- taurant permitted them to take pictures with an art collection. Each of the pictures cost at least $1,000, and the seniors were very careful of their movements. (Bad luck with the film resulted in no pictures.) A tired but happy group started home on Sunday. A quick call to the Worland Highway Department proved that rapidly fal ling snow would stop them there. Monday was spent in Worland playing cards, games, and talking. Tuesday a second attempt was made to get home. It was de- cided to detour through Billings, since there had been a slide which blocked the highway at Tensleep. They left Worland at 8:00a.m. and were somewhat frustrated when they discovered at 2:00 p.m. they were 50 miles further from home than when they left Worland! After 12 hours of driving, the seniors arrived in Big Horn. All agreed home had never looked so good! Climb every mountain! To sleep, perchance to dream. A couple of cut-ups. Scrabble entertained Mrs. Genereaux, Thad, and Marie. Madamoiselle, Ken? The slide at Tensleep.
