Holland library is surrounded by a covering of white as Pullman received its biggest snowfall in three years. We'll never get all these suitcases in the car, moans the driver as vacation sends students in all directions. The opening act of the sixth annual Theta Sig Extras presented in December, featured Mickey Fenske. Winter Event Winter was a time for hauling out the crutches for many-not because they wanted to, but because they couldn't walk without them. A common sight was to see both sexes walking gingerly along, think- ing they were safe if they went slow enough. But there were always a few who found themselves sit- ting down on sidewalks or flying down a flight of snowy stairs. A good percentage of these unluckies got prescriptions for crutches. Of course, winter was unusually perfect for Winter Week, ice-skating and snow artistry. Basketball games were never post- poned and classes continued their dogged routine. Winter was also a thing that didn't stop finals from haunting profs and students alike. Finals left some students as icy as the coldest blasts. Grades came out and winter went its dull way. Snow and monotony brought winter into reality on the WSC campus. Days were characterized by stu- dents looking out their windows in the morning and wondering about wind velocity and density of pre- cipitation. At noon, they would hurry to their houses, eat hot lunches and hope that afternoon might bring less snow and wind. Perhaps students, crawl- ing into bed after particularly cold days, would wish fervently to be in California. To combat some of the cold that crept through the most resistant cloth- ing, coeds pulled knee sox up their legs and flashed about the campus. Men shook their heads and thought the girls looked like modernistic mummies. Another winter characteristic was the soaring sale of coffee all over the campus and muddy footprints across floors.
