There were fourteen members In our class at the time and we all thought we were quite sophisticated. In 1947, we began our sophomore year with only ten members, the members left us, but two new students Joined our class. Six of In our Junior year Winifred Drake left school and Walter Malnes enter -ed our class. The Class Officers were: President, Ruth Sherman; Vice- President, Ella Kimball; Beverly Drake; Secretary, Norma Weaver; Treasurer, Jean Latson; and Student Council Members, Olive Dablnett and David Fitzgerald. Ella Kimball left school In March so Beverly Drake was elected as our new Vice-President. As Is customary, the Juniors published the yearbook and gave a dance In honor of the Seniors. In September of 1948, seven members of our class became Seniors. The other three members left Galway high School. With our all-girl class we struggled through our subjects. Our olfcfes officers were: President, Ruth Sherman; Vice-President, Beverly Drake; Treasurer, Norma Weaver; Secretary, Jean Latson; Student Council Members, Georgeanna May and Lena Purvee. Olive Dablnett, the only member of the class who held no office, was made Class Manager. Georgeanna May Is Secretary of Student Council and Lena Purvee Is Treasurer. In October the Senior Class had a hayrlde which was the flrgt money-making project of the year. The Seniors also had the annual magazine drive and the card sales, which the made a profit on. On April 7 8 the Seniors presented the spring entertainment, a play called The Baby-Sitter with Jean Latson and John Pajak as the leading characters. They also had the annual Senior Trip to New York City. SENIOR TRIP TO NEW YORK Friday, April 15: Left Schenectady at 9:07 a, m. for New York and excitement In the Abbey Hotel. Frl. night dinner In cafeteria. Back to the hotel?to dress for the Radio City Music Hall theatre at 5:40, to see the Rockettes, Easter Pageant and Connecticut Yankee . Coffee and cokes from Room Service at mldnlte. The waiter hurt our feelings by refusing our 2-cent tip. Saturday: Left for Battery Park, took steamer to Statue of Llberty- where a couple of the girls almost collapsed of shaky legs. They really got up to leave at 8:30 a. m. The afternoon was spent shopping at Saks 5th, MaCuthean's, MaCy's, and Glrabel's. (What pricesJ) Sat. night we saw the Portrait of Jennie at the Rlvoll. To bed at 2:45 a. m. after a midnight snack of hamburgers. Good weren't they, Jean? Sun. morning: Up at 12:00-ate at the cafeteria on the corner, back to hotel to be on tour at 1:30 p.m. for Bronx Zoo.

Mon. morning: Left hotel at 8:45 ft. m. for NBC. WowJ What a cute guide.' Saw Fred Waring Broadcast. At the time men were most needed to holler- Galway -we didn't have them.

Got off bus to go shopping (again) In Glmbel's and Macy's. Three of the girls decided to take a cab back to the hotel and not shop---nice driver, huh, girls???? No key, by the way—• Make up your mlnd$ girls, Is It up or down In the elevator? Mon. night some went to the show, Mr. Belvedere Goes to College , the rest wrote letters. We never saw so many sailors In our life. Georgle kept a watchful eye out for the Navy. Tues. morning: Left hotel at 8:30 a. m. for LaGuardls Airport and Empire State Building. I think the Senior girls like red halr -why???????? Back to hotel to pack and eat at the Ho-Ho Restaurant and then out of hotel to get train home. More darn fun even If our two taxis hit each other------ All you got to say Is, In a hurry, Bud? mi uwmvimim
