E IOR CLASS HI TORY On September 7, 1923, several sailors gathered at the port of Chester, desirous of embarking on a voyage through the Sea of Knowledge on the I-Iigh School Ship. Having had two years' experience in sailing, we we1'e eager for our voyage. Yvhen the entire crew was assembled, we found that we had the unlucky number of thirteen, but since we were all very courf ageous sailors we were not daunted. NYC elected for our officers, Ruth Ann XX'orster, Captain, Yerne Daniels, First mate, and Ethel Ladd, Second mate. while Mrs. Casey was chosen as our admiral lsponsoril. After several days of smooth sailing, we suddenly found we were in a sea of storms, the first of which was the inter-class tournament, in which we were defeated. However, the biggest storm we weathered took place during the selection of our class play, All on .Xccount of Pollyw, which fin- ally proved to be a great success. Hut our good ship was strong and braved every storm, so we finally sailed into Sunny Sea, where we gave a class party, in the form of a weiner roast and marshmallow toast, at the home of Yolanda Perry, one of the crew. On the ninth of May we were all very glad to have the honor of giv- ing our first reception for the sailors of 'Z-l. Then we landed for our vaca- tion on Summer Island. By the next fall all the crew with the exception of three who were too sea sick, were brave enough to sign up and come aboard again. Wfith the addition of one new member, our crew now numbered eleven. For the re- mainder of our voyage we elected as officers, Carrie Kimmel, Captain, Har- old Clark, First mate. Frederick Park. Second mate, while Mr. Mounsey was selected as Admiral. XVhen the last part of our voyage was half completed, another sailor was added to our crew, making our number twelve. In the storm of the interclass basketball tournament the girls' team was victorious and the boys' team also won. XVe carried as cargo on this voyage a Lecture Course given by the Brown Lyceum Bureau, which was well liked, and although we were not very successful financially, we were proud to know that we had given the public four high class entertainments. Another part of the cargo was a carnival and athletic show, given to help pay for the Lyceum Course, which was a great success. The play we presented, I-Iis Best Investment , was unusually good and very successful. Then we again sailed into Sunny Sea where a class party was held, in the form ofa St. Patricks Day Party, at the home of Catherine Starr. a mem- ber of the crew. After a voyage of smooth sailing we arrived safely on the shore of graduation, having been neither torpedoed nor sunk by F's. XYe leave the port of Chester with happy remembrances of our voyage and hope that all the future crews sailing in the High School Ship are as successful and have as many good times as we have had. -VERA PINNEY. 4...-...- .-....-..- - ...i.-...- N.. .- - i-ii-...-.......-,,-..- -.. ...u-n..-... - -......-...-...-iq.
