Q y y W .,., . ., . 1 Valentines Day came early this year for Spring Branch High. Because Febru- ary 14 showed its face on a Saturday, Spring Branch chose to blossom in all its red glory on Friday the 13th. Although to some Friday the 13th may mean bad luck, the 13th brought a taste of happiness, friendship, and love. With the help of Eastern Onion and the many flower shops in the area, Spring Branch put a feeling in most hearts that lasted the entire weekend. With the passing out of valentine cards by the Sophomore Student Council and the passing out of both written and singing telegrams by OEACOffice Education Associationl, most everyone got the word across to friends, sweethearts, and those secretly admired that someone was thinking of them. Several rooms, including the junior of- 32 X Valentines Day .. .. .M-s-..y-sf-nan I fice, glowed with the R-E-D that has become the symbolic color for Valen- tines Day. Many students and faculty members showed their feelings and spirit through the eye-catching colors of their clothes. The colors red and white streamed through the halls in the precious seven minutes between each class. lt was as if a competition was on to see who could wear the most red. The fun didn't stop with the 3:15 bell that said it was time to go home. Many friends and sweethearts returned that night to take part in the Sweetheart Dance held in the cafeteria. As the old friends continued to dance, the new friends spent time getting to know each other. At 11:45 the fun broke up. It was time to go home and get ready for Saturday, February 14th - Valentines's Day! .i' ff, 4 l. These are examples of the creative decorating done by the students on Valentines Day. 2.
