This past January ’ s blasts of snow , cold air and wind chill remind me of a November back in 1950 when I was a student at The Ohio State University home for the Thanksgiving holiday . The home stay was fine , but I was very anxious to get back to my High Street quarters and join in the festivities of the great football weekend and the encounter with that team “ Up North .”

That Friday morning after Thanksgiving it was raining , not “ cats and dogs ,” but big size snowflakes that wouldn ’ t stop . Though the mounds were building , I was not to be denied my getting back to Columbus . There was no way it was going to happen by car so the family got me to the train station , and that afternoon I was aboard New York Central leaving the underground Terminal Higbee station .

I made it to Columbus , but it seemed there was more of the white stuff there than what I had left

Winter has hit us , and it has been a cold few weeks . What better way to warm up than with our February issue dedicated to love , fast cars and sports ! This issue will make you fall in love with your special someone

behind . I had a very difficult time making it to the house , but did somehow make it to the frat house , Lambda Chi Alpha , on 15th street .

But , needless to say , Saturday came and went I didn ’ t make it out of the frat house quarters . So we “ brothers ” all stayed put and listened on the radio to a game that was played in a virtual blizzard . Sadly to say , the Buckeyes “ were out-punted ” in a kicking game that went back and forth .

On the plus side , the continuing snow meant we had no classes the following Monday and Tuesday . The time off did give me more of an opportunity to catch up on studies and handle my part-time job at Baker Hall serving the female students their coffee and desserts .
