Even this snowman looked chilly posing on South Center Street in Grove City this week as temperatures dropped and fluffy white has continuously fell from the sky. With the amount of snowfall this week, perhaps his owners will make him a friend. Grove City Memorial Park's fountain is working strong, but seems to have developed an iceberg. Not everyone has a cell phone. This man braved the cold, wind and snow to make a call on the pay phone in front of Country Fair in the borough. (Felicia A. Petro/Allied News).

HIGH SCHOOL WINTER SPORTS: Lakeview 5 passes the test
STONEBORO – In high school, teachers will give pretests as a way for their students to prepare for an upcoming exam.
The Lakeview Sailors (13-4) received their ‘pretest’ last Monday in the form of Region 5-AA foe Iroquois (8-7) and passed it with a solid ‘A’ by beating the Braves 73-53.
“We really wanted to make this somewhat of a statement game,” Lakeview coach Gary Burke said. “We know Iroquois is fighting for their lives to get into District 10 playoffs. We knew they took Mercyhurst Prep to the wire Friday night. We wanted to prove that we can play the game pretty well down here in the south.
