I el9Cl,I e !0I j0I'l'l0l l 0LU Wew yall jfiya The graduating class of F. M. S. would like to share some of the highlight features of our New York Trip with you. We started our trip from the Day School at 6:15 A.M. We stopped at johnny's Diner for the benefit of those who didn't have time for breakfast and for those who were ready for their second one. We entered New York through the Holland Tunnel. First we went on a three-hour guided tour by boat around Manhattan Island. We saw many interesting things on this tour. Many of us made use of our cameras when we saw the Statue of Liberty. After the boat ride our next stop was LaGuardia Airport. Soon after we arrived we saw crowds of people and photographers crowd around some one who had just come off a plane. Later we found out that we had seen the first prisoner of war to return home to New York. By this time everyone was hungry so we went to the Hotel Empire and checked in, and had turkey for supper. Our next stop was the tallest building in the world, the Empire State Building. Most of the students went to the hundred-second story, but a few of the girls didn't have the nerve. Later we went to the planetarium where we heard an interesting lecture on Messengers from Space. Ruth Moyer decided to sleep through the lecture instead of in the hotel. On the way to the hotel we went for a ride on Broadway. Before we went to our hotel rooms we had a devotion period. Miss Peachey, the girls' chaperone, went to investigate some unusual noises and locked herself out of the room Caccidently of courseb. About seven o'clock the next morning, one of the operators from the hotel called each room and told us it was seven o'clock. After breakfast we visited the United Nations and the cathedral of john the Divine. Many students thought the United Nations building was the most interesting place we visited. After this tour we went back to the hotel for lunch and then checked out. Next on our schedule was the Rockefeller Center and the N.B.C. Radio and Television Centers. We had to take the subway to get the bus at 49th street. Everyone rushed in and out of the subway because they didn't want to be left behind. After we boarded the bus we went through Chinatown and the Bowery. We had a twelve-course meal at a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown. The smell of some of the food kept some of us from tasting it. Before we left for home we had time to shop in Chinatown. On the way home we stopped at johnny's Diner, because some people didn't like Chinese food. We arrived at school around 10:30, after a wonderful time. Marilyn Landis Doris Clemmer 20
