AUDUBON HIGH SCHOOL FLIGHT RECORD OF THE A. H. S. CLIPPERH FLIGHT ONE Date, 193364 Flying ForecastfCEIL1NG ZERO We entered the school as the ground crew. Under our able instructors. Miss Ayres. Mass Baker. Mr. Carl, Mrs. Leonard. Mr, Neel. Mr. Plcken and Miss Warlow. we charted our course and learned how to follow it. Our crew was swelled by numerous members from Runnemede and Mt. Ephraim. The fullffledged junior and senior pilots paid little attention to us except when we could give fuel to their planes by supporting their activities. This we did willingly and looked forward to the time for our SECOND FLIGHT Date, 193485 - Flying ForecastfCALM We were ready to learn the controls of our ship and perhaps fly it a little with Miss Chees- man, Mr. Lambert. Mr. Messenger. Mr. Neel. Mr. Picken. Mr. Troutman. and Miss Wzimsley' guiding us. True. the ship was a small open cockpit type but we diligently paid a dime each week so that we could purchase a really good one and make the record flight. for which we were even then planningfAudubon to Vilashington. Our crew chose its leaders: Samuel Sproul. president: LeRoy Purvis, vice president: Mary McManus. secretary: and Louis Iaeck. treasurer. W'e tried our wings for the first hop of our career in March. which was the time for our sophomore party. Although the music ampliher broke. it was not a major disaster: for some of our more inventive crew remedied it by running their nimble nngers over the keyfboard of the plane's piano. After this successful hop and a three months' vacation to rest up. we anticipated with joy the take' off of our THIRD FLIGHT Date, 193566 Flying Forecast-FAvoRAB1.E Amateur pilots. sitting in the cockpit of our monoplane. we worked the controls ourselves under the supervision of Mrs. Anderson, Mr. jaggard, Mr. Lance, Miss Thorpe, Mr. Troutman, Miss Wamsley. and Mrs. Weeks. We took off in September and made a perfect threefpoint landing in june. This was a most exciting and eventful flight. We chose as our officers: Samuel Sproul, president: Mary McManus. vice president: Clifford Mannella. secretary: and LeRoy Purvis. treasurer. Our Hrst junior dance was a great success. The gymnasium was decorated in the Hallowe'en spirit with corn shocks and pumpkin heads. Our next success was the junior play, A Murder Has Been Arranged. startlingly different and unique. It brought many pieces of valuable green paper into our treasury. Vsle fell into an airpockct with our second junior dance. but recovered with a loss of only two dollars. Diligentlv, we strove to make the juniorfSenior Prom a success. As the amateur pilots, most of the work fell on us: but we enjoyed it all and were well rewarded to see the gymnasium transformed into an oriental setting. Many of our crew were making their mark in scholastic achievement and the held of sports. We took a leave of absence for the summer before taking off on our record-breaking FOURTH FLIGHT Date, 193687 Flying Forecast-SKY'S THE LIMIT We returned to the airport for the last year saddened by the loss of one of our crew. Under the supervision of Miss Dornbach. Mr. Keyhurtz. Mrs. Lance. Mr. Neel. and Mrs. Schuler, we chose Samuel Sproul. president: Mary McManus. vice president: Clifford Mannella. secretary: and LeRoy Purvis. treasurer. The rest of us made reservations on the gigantic A. H. S. Clipper with only a few. who had to make forced landings. left behind. The Victory Dance feven though the Heights claimed the victory on the fieldj was more successful than any held before. Tons of Ivioneyn--that was our sidefsplitting senior play! The ttle was a prophecy. because tons of money literally rolled into our treasury. Hearts. hearts. hearts-the gym was one huge valenf tine! With such a setting. how could our Valentine Dance be anvthing but successful? With the throttle wide open. we flew uhigh. wide. and handsome to Washington. What a flight! But all too short! And now-we are about to take off on the biggest flight of our career. We are leav' ing the airport which has sheltered us for four years4each in his own little plane. each bound for a different destination. Perhaps. our paths may cross. who knows? Now. with a twist of the propeller. the whine of the motor. we glide down the runway. Happy landing-happy landin . . . ! g Flight Recorder: DOLORES KATZ ll X f, ,. X i g fi I Yvy.
