Mid-winter came and left — silently The beginning of the school year has its certain ambitions, and the end has definite plans with the con- nection of mid-winter between the two. The days developed into a drone during this period of time, with natural, unquestioned events such as Christmas, mid-term exams and the hopes of snow. The first snow of winter came early in the season for students at Northwood High, causing them to miss two school days. The snow was a welcome but unnecessary break coming as it did between Thanksgiving and Christmas holi- days. Exchanging gifts, chorus and band concerts, along with the an- nual door-decorating contest con- tributed to spreading the spirit of Christmas throughout Northwood. The closing of the first semester brought the end of mid-winter. After exams, students made resolu- tions to improve and looked for- ward to Valentine’s Day and Spring.

Student sales vital part of budget The student body was involved in many fund-raising projects this year for the benefit of their clubs and the general fund. Many students went door-to-door selling candy bars in a school-wide cam- paign. For their efforts, the ad- ministration bought two ping-pong tables for the commons area and distributed money among the various Clubs. Practically every club at NHS had a money-making project. Both the annual and newspaper staffs pushed sales to meet their ex- penses while the student council pushed ticket sales for the same purpose. Cheerleaders sold every- thing from tape to jewelry to raise money for uniforms and spirit boosters. National Honor Society members sold doughnuts and the FBLA stationary to support their projects. Students at Northwood work for their diplomas, but they sell for their school. TOP LEFT: Beverly McLain finds that Mrs. Beal is a good doughnut customer.
