C. at 12:21 p.m. April 19. From there we were transferred to the Commodore Hotel, had our lunch at a near-by cafeteria, and started out on our first tour—to the Capitol of our United States of America—seeing the House and Senate Chambers and the Supreme Court. We then proceeded on to the Library of Congress and then back to our hotel to spend a free even- ing getting acquainted with Washington. Saturday, April 20, we visited the Washington Monu- ment where we reached the top in 70 seconds by elevator and laboriously descended the 998 steps to the bottom. We toured on to the Arlington National Cemetery, visited the Curtis Lee Mansion, passed the Marine Memorial Statue of the Flag raising at Iwo Jima, and watched the impressive changing of the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. In the afternoon we toured to Mount Vernon and were guided through the mansion and beautiful gardens. Saturday even- ing we went to Glen Echo Amusement Park in Maryland. Sunday, April 21, the Frotestants attended the Sunrise Service at Arlington Cemetery and the Catholics attended Mass at the Franciscan Monastery. In the afternoon we toured the Franciscan Monastery and the zoo. In the even- ing we visited the Lincoln Memorial for a night view of the Lincoln Statue, tho Jefferson Memorial and the Wash- ington Airport. Monday, April 22, we went through the Smithsonian Institute, the Archives Building, and the Building of -Engraving and Printing. Immediately after lunch we left on the train for New York. Each of the Seniors was very impressed with our nation's Capitol and the memory of our tours and visits there with our class members will live in our hearts forever. NEW YORK CITY TOUR Monday, April 22, 1957 ■ At 2:00 p.m, eighteen weary people left Washington for ' New York City, At 6:20 p.m. we arrived in Grand Central Station only to he hurried to the Hotel Taft by taxi. Here we freshened up and then ate supper. That evening we left the hotel for Radio City Music Hall Theatre. Here we saw the Rockettes, a stage show, a movie, Funny Face, and the Easter Pageant, Tuesday, April 23, 1957 Early Tuesday morning we left the hotel and by the way of the subway were bound for the American Museum of Nat- ural History. Here were bones of the early animals, the costumes and tools of the Indians and the different rocks of the United States. In the afternoon we left for a guided tour of Upper and Lower New York from Grant's Tomb to the Battery, stopping at the Cathedral of St. John, The Devine and walking through Chinatown. In the evening we left the Hotel Taft for the Madison Square Gardens where we saw the Ringling Bros. Barnum and Baily Circus. Wednesday, April 2ip, 1957 Early Wednesday morning we rode the subway to Battery Park where we took the ferry to the Statue of Liberty. Here most of us climbed the spiral steps to the top. From the Statue we continued to the Empire State Building and up to the observation roof, Because it was so foggy, we couldn't see very far. In the afternoon we were on our way to the St. James Theatre where we saw the Broadway show Li'1 Abner. Wednesday evening was left free. Some of the Seniors attended the Van Zile Party Dance at the Hotel New Yorker while others went to the movies. Some stayed at the hotel and caught up on their sleep. Thursday, April 25, 1957 Thursday morning we attended a guided tour of the United Nations Building, the St. Patrick's Cathedral and Rocke- feller Plaza. In the afternoon we walked down Broadway and went to Macy's Department Store. At 7:1+5 p.m. we were again on our way to the Grand Central Station by taxi and at 9:15 p.m. we left New York City, very tired but with happy memories of the two cities which we visited during the week. ■ SENIOR CLASS Can You Imagine?

CLASS PROPHECY OP $7 Here it is 1967 and I am on my way to Washington and New York City, but this time I am not going as a student but as a chaperone of the seniors of Skelton Hole, New York,_ On the train I saw a speck of blond hair and when I looked to see who it was, I discovered it was none other than Chuck Rowland. He was heading back to Maryland. He says he is making a career of the navy. X thought it quite strange that he got a greenish complexion when I mentioned boats. When we arrived in Washington we were taken directly to the Commodore Hotel. I was surprised to find out that Eddie Homer was the new manager of the Hotel. I also thought it was strange that he runs an elevator in his spare time with a sign overhead which says, Lady’s Only. The night before we left for New York City we took the moonlight Cruise along the Potomac. I discovered our captain was Lynn Bice, He says he couldn't resist that Washington Moon. The next afternoon we arrived in New York City. We were taken directly to the Taft Hotel. I heard the hotel had a beautician so I made an appointment to have my hair set. When I arrived for my appointment I was surprised to see Peggy Simser. Her speciality is putting peroxide on the girls hair. Peggy was up on all the latest news. She said that Barbara G-onyea is now living in Indianapolis, Indiana. Barb and Johnny run a trailer park located in the south end of the city. When I went back to my room the maid was making the bed. When she turned around I saw it was Joan Frisco. It seemed that the Taft had really appealed to her. next morning we went to China town. Our guide turned out to be Merritt Stevens. He had recently appeared in Can-Can and was doing the tour for Kicks. As we were walking through Chinatown I met Kay a me. She is still trying to put her nursing know- USe She still carries her scissors, needle no thread around just waiting for someone to g et a case of appendicitis. ,. hat afternoon we went to see Li11 Abner. I lc d the girl, Stupefyin’ Jones, looked very familiar, ooked at my program and discovered that it was Janice John. sto nex k raor,nIng we went to Macy1 s department berrn6 secon6 floor we saw Mike Perero modeling Ia, -U, ts. In his spare time he writes Jerry lewis's script. CLASS PROPHECY--CONTINUED In the material department I saw Elaine Paro. She was buying five yards of black faille. She is a designer of clothes now. You can find her latest fashions in the Glamour Magazine. As we were leaving Macy's I ran into Mary Lou Alguire. It seems that she spends the afternoons riding on the escalator. On the way back to the hotel I bought a newspaper. As I was looking through it I came across a picture of Gary Doyle. He had just been named the champion runner of the United States. I guess his speed in the halls at school was really put to use. Back in my room, I changed 'my clothes and went down to Childs restaurant. Our hostess was no other than Mary Allen. It seems that she liked the food so well there that she just couldn't resist going back. After dinner I took the class to a fashion show. There, modeling housecoats, was Rosalyn Jennings. It seemed that someone had seen her run down the hall in the Commodore in her housecoat and had brought her to New York. On the way back to Skelton Hole Joan Aurelio was on our coach. She was just returning from a visit with her penpal in England. She says she is now writing her letters in shorthand to save time. Well, at approximately 8:30 a.m. we arrived back in Skelton Hole. And after seeing New York City that's just about what it looked like.

We regret that x e will lose some more good players this year: Rosalyn Jennings, Mary Allen, Joan Aurelio, and Peggy Simser, but we realize that we have some new band members that are really good also and will help make up for those who are leaving us. The band put on two assemblies, one on February 15 and another on March 29. A Pep Band was formed to play at the home basketball game s.
