F ifzy In the fall of 1935 a complete new crew of 69 members boarded the ship Concordia. Every one knew there were to be four long laps of the voyage but each was willing to take a chance for the honor which was to be theirs at the end of the voyage. For the first lap of the journey the Navigator was Miss Light, Captain- Wayne Martin, First Mate-Verna Kluth, Yeoman and Purser--Kathryn Mumaw. After several months of hard sailing we stopped at a small island for an eve- ning. When everyone had gone ashore we thought we would have some fun,iso one of the crew, Dale Graybill, found a steep hill and gave the rest of us a veryrenjoy- able sledding party. The next day as we left the island we added Paul Pressler to our crew. In the spring we purchased several sets of slide pictures, which were added, as our contribution, to the laboratory. In May the crew became restless so the ship was anchored in the harbor of one of the larger islands. As the crew went down the gangplank three of our members Lamar McCrory, Florence Kreider, and Paul Pressler were missing. The summer months soon rolled by and in September 1936 the Concordia again set sail, with 55 crew members. Those who had not returned were Mary Adams, Harriet Bontrager, Betty Brown, Harold Colclesser, Robert Cook, Waneta Dietrich, Maxine Fager, Dewey Gongwer, George Greiner, Esther Hartman, Lois Helminger, Muriel Himebaugh, Doris Miller, Dwight Weaver, and Harry Crouch. The new mem- bers added to our crew were Virginia Cooper, Robert Cooper, Robert Yunker, and Marvin Wagner. For the second lap of this important journey the Navigator was Mr. Myers, Captain-Robert Yunker, First Mate-Carol Teuchert, Yeoman and Purser--Earlene Thornton. As we proceeded on our journey we decided to give all the new crew members an initiation party. It was held in the main hall and games were enjoyed by every- one. In return for the friendship which was shown to them, they gave us a party in the gymnastic room to show their appreciation. Our crew was very much interested in all varieties of activities from music to basketball. Sixteen members took active part in music and seven of the boys played excellent basketball. tContinued on page 7j E61
