Snow’s First Appearance
Creates Campus Flurry
By JESSE JENKINS
You name it—Athens lias it. It has any type of weather
in the winter months that is. It rains, sleets and snows—
the sun even shines sometimes.
Tuesday, however, was not
was
a time for sunshine. It was
time for snow, and snow it did.
For the first time this year it
came down and stayed for
awhile.
A wide-eyed foreign student
ventured out in it, bewildered.
Where he is from, snow must
be pretty rare. After carefully
scooping up a handful, squeez
ing it and smelling it, he broke
into a wide grin and exclaimed,
“It’s just like ice!”
It seems almost everyone
else knew about it. Snowballs
wore .flying high and low,
big and small, even from the
daintiest of female hands.
A group of five coeds were
obviously planning the night’s
activities for a small voice de
clared, “Let's set up an ambush
outside Oglethorpe for to
night.” She received over
whelming approval.

walked cautiously along, ob
viously enjoying the weather.
One commented, “I think I'll
build a snowman.”
“Not me!” replied the other
quite emphatically.
"W h y ? " questioned her
friend.
“Because," came the quick
answer, with a toss of the
head, “I have to put up with
a snowman every weekend—
snow or not."
So it seemed snow, pro and
con, in all its forms, was the
main topic of conversation.
Most seemed to enjoy It. How
ever there were those who
would rather do without it.
A couple of male students
teased their warm-blooded
friend, unmercifully as the
three trudged through the Icy
mist.
'The only thing wrong with
Charlie is he left his longhnn-
dles at home.” shot one Joker.
The other chuckled and con
soled, “Aw, come on, Charlie,
thought you liked to, ski.”
"Yeah! I do. Water ski,"
came the shivering reply
from the needled fellow'.
Then very seriously he
mused, “Wonder how the
weather Is in Miami Reach?”
Off campus at one of the
Classic City’s most popular
eating establishments, last
fall's “grandstand coaches’
had turned into weathermen.
‘Yep,” drawled an elderly
native, "Could be as bad as the
one back In the ’30*8.”
"Naw,” replied one of his
friends peering out at the
street, “We just don’t have ’em
like that anymore.”
As they stared out at the
icy scene, a flashy automo
bile slid dangerously nround
the corner, barely straight
ening up in time.
Expression unchanged, one
of the old-timers said, "Did ya’ll
see where that car was from?”
Heads nodded and one re
plied, “Yeah, Florida. Figures,
don’t it?”
"Yep,” came another solemn
comment, "Like the old sayin’
goes, ’The Good Lord protects
drunks, fools, and Floridians!”
They all laughed heartily as
one Floridian in particular
stepped outside, welcoming the
feel of the snow in his face
and wondering how that old
saying really goes.
