No one really believed it would last however, so in many cases no preparation was made for bad weather. The roads were already getting hazardous so the buses had to pick their way carefully. Myriads of stranded cars were seen, but the seniors fortunately had no bad luck and arrived in the nation's capital safely. i It was a white Washington. The snow had forced cancellation of several stops, but the sponsors were able to reschedule itin- eraries so that nothing was missed. There was ice skating at the motel and the seniors all agreed that Washington under seven inches of snow was even more beautiful and enjoyable. Miss Deputy seems unimpressed by White House grandeur. The eyes have it.

SENIORS TOUR NATION,S CAPITAL Thursday, November 30, the senior class piled into two chartered buses for a trip to Washington, D.C. The next two days were filled with enjoyable sightseeing. Tour guide, Jay B. Landis, co-ordinated the activites which included visits to Mt. Vernon, Arlington National Cemetery, government buildings, and other interesting places. The seniors used the Twin Bridges Marriott Motor Hotel as a base for their weekend in Washington. A traditional event, the class trip breaks the monotony of classrooms and books and pro- vides an excellent opportunity to learn to know classmates better.
