This a masquerade party, and harles Hablitzel was o genial hostc Everything went along nicely until we came upon a stretch of stormy weather about the mid of the flight. This unfavorable weather lasted H for about two days, then we awoke to find the H weather clear and the sun shining very brighta T The weather man said that there would be no more W stormy weather until the end of the year.

- . V F ' J'-fagfiafpi 3112551 l?gr A 1 w Our trip continued splendidly until we came ed to land until the weather cleared up. After two days the weather cleared up and we were all ready to continue our flight. After another vacation of three months, our pilot, Paul Miller, filled up the empty gas tank and we were ready to start our flight with a new tutor, Miss Straw. First of all we wanted a party to start the trip off. Mabel Johnson agreed to be our hostess for the evening. We enjoyed ourselves to the greatest extent. The first event which took place was the presentation of the Iunior Class Play nThe Spanish 0nion.u We stopped off at the 0hioLCity Liberty High School to present it. There we found a nice crowd in spite of the stormy weath- er outside. It was a grand success. Almost before we realized it, it was time to make preparation for the Junior-Senior'Prom, which was to be the first of May. After much de- , bate we decided to decorate the cafeteria as a EE Japanese Tea Garden. The ceiling was decorated ff with Wisteria, which is a beautiful climbing 5 shrub. The garden was surrounded by a quaint t white fence. Tapanese lanterns were hung here an there among the Wisteria. Fortunatley we had no V calamities. iur toastmaster, Russell Roberts, a 3 filled the position very nicely for the evening. I ?ur music for the evening was furnished by Miss ig Betty Gardner and the Hardman Brothcrst After fl this we had a theater party. The Junior-Senior Prom of 1956 is one that will be long remembered it as everyone enjoyed it imnensly in spite of the 1 rainy weather. , Before the year was over we had a skating , party at the Y-M-C.A. as a result of a contest 4 1 carried on by our cabin mates. We did not mind the hard falls we received while trying to do 5 some fancy stunts. It was almost impossible for 1 some of our mates to learn to skate. I believe 5 they were still dizzy from our plane ride. 1 I . i r ' ,. MW! I into some very stormy weather, then we were forc- Xglxnt f J XM' X1 V- V V .1 K W
