25 . Tuesday morning, after again being late, we rattled and swayed across Manhattan in a subway to South Perry, where we caught a boat for the Sta¬ tue of Liberty. After taking an elevator to the base of the old girl, wo followed a narrow spiral staircase for 152 feet until we reached the two- foot six-inch eyes. With heads swimming and knees wobbling we began the descent and reached the ground wondering if it had boen worth thG effort. After lunch at an automat (another word for a madhouse) we arrived in force at the Jimmy Dean show. Although Mr. Monteith said he couldn ' t see the stage for ’’all that paraphernalia , the show was enjoyed by all. Our next stop was the Museum of Modern Art, but on seeing that the admission was seventy-five cents, Mr. Monteith decided that we wouldn ' t linger. Prom here, with everyone complaining that he was dead on his feet, we headed for the docks to see tho Queen Elizabeth and the lie do Prance. Our chaperones then decided to turn us loose to do some shopping and everyone immediately forgot his aching feet and walked for another hour or so. After walking all this time we didn’t feel much like a concert, but that evening the fifth balcony of Carnegie Hall was honourod by our presence. Jennie Tourel was an excellent singer, but all Jim Hatch could do was ask, Can I go and eat now, sir? No one slept much that night, what with packing and parties, so it was a tired group who dragged themselves to Grant Central Terminal at seven the next morning. Bob Watt got paler and paler every minute, and by the time he boarded the train he was as white as a sheet. The scenery from the outskirts of New York to Schenectady was really beautiful, but no one got to see much of it for Bill Keano and several others had purchased flutes in Chinatown and Bill proceeded to hold classes of instructions— How to Play the Piute in One Easy Lesson . For five hours we he rd the Parade of the Wooden Soldiers in every possi¬ ble key until it was coming out of our ears. The erstwhile travellers who arrived back at Essex on schedule at 9:00 p.m, Wednesday are as follows : Sandra Steward, Beverly Hensman, Joyce Mortimorc, Martha Martin, Carolyn Milne, Marion Grondin, Margaret Jessop, Carol Garrott, Mary Gilbert, Helen Standon, Lizzo Andkilde, Shirley Hicks, Sylvia MacRae, Haney Turton, Naomi Colonutt, Sandra Halasz, Both Dewhirst, Janet MacDonald, Martha Moore, Jill Geddesj 3ob Schogcr, Jim Rajki, Bill Keane, Wayne Jessop, Jack Paquette, Don Graham, Bill McOuat, Richard Hartley, Dave Brush, Winston Armstrong, Jim Ellis, Bob Wass, Bob Watt, Jim Hatch. --Nancy Turton 12B
