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

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. Like members of a famous ice ballet troupe, the cars slipped and slid in an attempt to carry us - tired after a day of fun and play - home to inform our absent friends of the fun they had missed.

March brought traveling and tryouts. Spring was nearly here and the end of school could be seen. We were all looking forward to new experi- ences. Hope played a big part in the lives of cheerleader aspirants Shirley Brown and Pam Welch as they bounced, jumped, and yelled their ways into the hearts of the critical vo ters they performed before. March winds blew us around the town and state for conventions. On March 17, journalistically in- clined students attacked Austin with all the vigor and vitality that twenty-five students ana two young sponsors could muster. Ila Collins, Larry Giddings, Terry Barnett, and Jack Chapin tensely await the announcement of awards at the ILPC Banquet. BUFFALO TALES came back with a Distinguished Merit Award. Our clubs and organiza- tions won numerous awards at the various conventions and banquets. Student Life 23
