Students Welcome Winter's Cold Blasts Dreaming of snowdays, Christmas vacation and semes- ter break, FLHS students welcomed winter. School spirit increased as the Rangers displayed their prowess in sports and the one-act play went on to state competition. Snow- mobiling, skating and skiing helped students wear off the winter blahs. It was hard to tell whether skiers spent more time on the slopes improving their turns or in the chalet hugging a cup of Irish coffee. If students' moods were blue, they joined in the antics of the Back-to-the-50's day and dance. When the blizzard hit, imaginary school clos- ings sounded in students' ears as they envisioned being snowbound with a friendly companion. Most students felt that the pleasures of winter were worth walks in sub-zero temperatures, dead batteries and WCCO disc-jockeys.

Merry Sadie-goers Animate Dogpatch When Sadie Hawkins, sponsored by the juniors, neared, girls found themselves getting up the courage to go courting their favorite guys. On November 22, stu- dents dressed as Daisy Maes and Li'l Abners brought Dogpatch, U.S.A. back to life. Admission fees were judged on a nose to nose basis. Old fashioned apple cider and cake were served and music was supplied by Everett James. Besides being a place of merry-making, Dogpatch was also the match making capital of hillbilly country where marriages out-numbered divorces. This time the guys weren't proposing; the girls were the ag- gressive ones. Barnyard-style cafeteria decorations re- vealed the creativity of committees.
