while those at home enjoyed the unexpected vacation, we at school abandoned all work to enjoy the seldom seen white fluff from heaven. Experimenting with the laws of physics, David Pokluda estimated the projected flight of a snowball and its effect on collision with a motionless body - Mark Buckner.

February hearts o ' erflowed. Everybody found a favorite to share a lit tle tenderness with on February 14 when Cupid took his annual flight to spread those darts of fatal love. Debbie Smith and Jack Chapin had a nose to nose talk over a carnation which the French Club had made available for boys to give to sweethearts. On that day of love, we came to love students from all over the world as each pre- sented his country in a short talk at the AFS Day Assembly. Bringing their own special brand of hope, THE NEW HOPE SINGERS sang and skirted their way into our hearts. Their songs told of love and goodness in a comfortable folksy way. 22 Student Life
