It had been a quiet year until FUNNY WHITE STUFF INVADED THE U of A JLl. At 11:00 PM, December 8, 1971, the University of Arizona was invaded by white stuff from the sky that ap- peared to be more than just frozen water. It sent students all over cam- pus into hysterics into the wee hours of the morning. 12:30 AM saw girls in baby-dolls, curlers, coats and boots, and guys in more sensible attire, braving the cold and huge snow flakes to witness the transfor- mation of desert Tucson into a win- ter-white paradise. For many, it was their first real-live snowfall and they took advantage of it. Squealing girls tried to bombard the swarming male population with hastily made snowballs that disinte- grated in mid-flight, and ended up getting more wet than they intended. Finally, they huddled in little groups under dorm awnings and waited for the more experienced men to re- group and attack. It seemed to inno- cent bystanders that the girls were running in strange patterns that would get them hit with the most snowballs. Boon ' s Farm Apple was shared a- round for lack of good ol ' American hot chocolate and warnings of don ' t eat yellow snow were bandied about. Christmas carols were caught up in the excitement and contests to see who could sing the most verses of Good King Wenslaslas were soon organized. Snow veterans of long standing regarded the whole oc- ' M lew AAA : = - casion with upturned noses, knowing it would only melt leaving them with colds the next day. If you were up the next morning, you would have seen approximately five glorious inches of snow covering palm and cactus alike. If you had a 10:40 Psychology class, you would have seen the prof get it from all sides and soon after let class out to enjoy the cold. And if you were real lucky you might have seen our own Dr. Schafer getting his portrait taken beside his personal snowman in front of the Administration Building. As happened to Frosty the Snowman, the dangerous enemy, (namely Mr. Sun) melted all the snow away. But the memories of snow to students will not end, and many hope that the funny white stuff will come again.
