_———-In early 60s the lake froze and some students were ice skating and photo was in a national mag——T-bind might even have a photo!

It was the centerfold in Life magazine!

He had beads around his neck and in his right hand earlier in the week.

My question is how did so many people in South Louisiana get ice skates?

Hard to see but I think it was "one" out front on skates, and the rest playing on ice in the background.

The two-page spread photo of frozen Cypress Lake was in the Jan. 26, 1962 issue of Life Magazine: https://rb.gy/lai42m. Scroll down a few pages to see photo on pp. 2-3 with the title "A SUDDEN ICE RINK DEEP IN DIXIE" at lower right.

At the time, a stray black dog nicknamed "Inky" had roamed the campus for a few weeks. I recall Inky walking on the ice and barking at the fish he could see through it. (My age is revealed by the fact that I graduated from USL that semester.)
