VALENTINE DANCE A Valentine Dance was held on the evening of January 30, in the high school gym. It was jointly sponsored by the student council and the staff of the Tale Lite. The decorations were simple but prettyg they consisted of hearts arranged around the walls and of an ivy-covered arch erected in the center of the floor. A large paper bag containing balloons dangled from the ceilingg they were released by Mr. I-Iengstler into the midst of the dancers. The dance was a semi-formal affair, and all in all, every one had an enjoyable evening. 49

INDIANA VS. PITTSBURGH Did you go? If you didn't you sure missed a lot of fun. It all started about 8.30 a.m. Saturday, October 18, 1947. The weather looked ter- rible and we thought we were in for a bad day but we left anyway. By the time we had driven about 20 miles we drove smack into a storm. A big trans- fer had skidded off the road and another one was stopped along the side of it. The weather was not only damp but so were our spirits. But nothing stops Seniors, so we began singing Cruin more songs that wayj and our singing led to laughing and before we knew it we were in Indianapolis-and the sun was shining! More songs, more miles -gee, I'm hungry-so we stopped at Martinsville for our lunch. Beverly didn,t think so much of her small lunch, huh, Bev? We piled back into the car, so began again. More songs, some yells Qnever do we forget our Tigersj and we finally reached our destination Bloomington-hurrah! We charged into the stadium, dashed madly around the whole field before find- ing just the right seat. Miss Covalt would make a good member of the Track Team. The game wasn't bad, not many thrills but I. U. won 41 to 6. Saw Mr. Freden- berger and some members of the Baseball Squad, got a glimpse of some underclass- men in Martinsville on the way back. We stopped outside Indianapolis for dinner. By this time Margie was so hungry, she tried to eat a stuffed squirrel that was in the Sportsman Room of the restaurant. CXVe saw you, Wfebbj After supper we saw Ted Weems and his orchestra and Beverly Tyler Qstar of The Green Yearsnj in person. After laughing and singing all day, we were pretty quiet the rest of the way from Indianapolis to Gas City, but the minute we saw our beloved Bridge, a cheer went up. It was about 12:45 so we said our good- bye quietly so we wouldn't wake the neigh- bors Cthey were probably watching out their windows anyway wondering why we got home so latej football games are nice, but so is sleep-ZZZ Q .
