U THE BLOTTER 9635 Spofg in fgtl Sfigfovp of 3QeQ- ovegf Scgoof URING the period of World War I, Guy Hinman Catlin and Louis Durand Marriott used courage, faith, experience, when they planned, built and finally opened the doors of Kew-Forest School, September 21, 1918, on Union Turnpike, in the young community of Forest Hills. Each earned A.B. and A.M. degrees, each had taught many yearsg Mr. Marriott had had the important experience of being the Administrator of his own school in Connecticut. The first section of the building, erected in 1918, was adequate for the fifty-four boys and girls who were the first pupils. The girls who asked for admission were a surprise to the Founders for they had one idea,-a boys school. So many girls applied it was impossible to turn them away. The school program, from the beginning, therefore, was planned for coeduca- tional classes from Kindergarten through High School and the lirst Commencement was held at the school in 1921. There were broad steps that formed an imposing front entrance to the building and from these one walked down a willow tree .L IW! Ill III L lll lll IIH Ill r Ill Ill r , ' ' Ill lll Ill - :llIlllllwllllllwllllllwllgwllllulllllllllll- shaded path to the country lane, Union Turnpike. Many surrounding acres furnished free play grounds for the pupils, in addition to the two acres of the school property. In 1921, the present High School building was erected. A tremendous physical change to the building and grounds came in 1932, when the construction of the Grand Central Parkway took fifty feet of ground and the attractive entrance steps from the front of the school and thirty-five feet from the grounds on the Austin Street side. From that pe- riod, the corner of the building, where Lower School and High School sections join, has fur- nished the main entrance way. The increased popu- lation, due to the construction of subways, and many apartment houses, made imperative the erec- tion of a high, durable fence around the school grounds, in 1935, for the protection of younger children. High Ideal for Academic Standing From the beginning, the administrators have had a high ideal for the academic standing of the school. The realization of that ideal is fairly well proven by the following facts: C15 The College Entrance Examination Board has used the school continuously since 1926 as a center, Q25 The Mid- dle States Association has accredited the school since january 1, 1928, f5j Since 1956, the school has been a member institution of the University of the State of New York, as of High School grade, and Regents examinations are regularly conducted here in january and June. The Library, an essen- tial part of any academic institution, was organized and classified according to the Dewey System and completely catalogued in 1925-26 by Mrs. Lucy Allen Smart, Assistant to the Headmasters, a for- mer college librarian. With steady growth since that time and with decided increase in the last seven years, the Library is an integral part of the school. A Among the 494 Alumni, many have earned THE BLOTTER degrees at 89 colleges and universities and others are studying at 41 colleges, today. Several are work- ing for their doctorates and Elizabeth Knight Pat- terson, Bryn Mawr Ph.D. '41 and Suzanne van Dyke Beatty, Sigma Xi, Michigan Ph.D. '46, have earned theirs. The Phi Beta Kappa list includes: Catherine Lewerth Almirall, Smith '33, Frederick H. Bruenner, Princeton '41, Carol Ann Hawkes, Barnard '433 Margaret B. Knapp, Wellesley '36, Marie E. Mesrobian, Barnard '41, Juliet Auman Metcalf, Ohio Wesleyan '41. Many graduates are lawyers, physicians, nurses, welfare workers and teachers. Margaret B. Knapp and Diane B. Holt have taken the vows and are now Nuns in the order of Sacred Heart. Mother Margaret Knapp is teaching in the Convent of Sacred Heart, Lake Forest, Illinois and Mother Diane Holt in the Con- vent of Sacred Heart, Overbrook, Pennsylvania. A strong faculty staff has characterized the school from the beginning and many members have been on the staff for many years. Mrs. Milli- cent D. Oram joined the staff in 1922, Mrs. Blanche A. Burd and James L. Chamberlain in 1924, James L. Dixon and Mrs. Lucy Allen Smart in 1925. Dr. Dixon was the head of the History Department until 1941, In 1935, he became Asso- ciate Headmaster. In 1944, he earned his Doctorate in Education. Mrs. Smart, who had lived in the community since 1917, became Assistant to the Headmasters and Librarian, when she joined the staff in 1925. Mr. Catlin, Dr. Dixon, and Mrs. Smart are on the roll of Phi Beta Kappa. The XX X X QA Xx X :Sf 1 .'Qi 7 i1X N, gf L xv - , -xiii-R-X39-i:??'..

Of all those who have taught in Kew-Forest School, not one has been more beloved than Vera E. Harif, head of the French Department, from September 1934 to June 1939. Her association with Kew-Forest School was terminated by her untimely death, january 3, 1942, at Tucson, Ari- zona. Mlle. Harif was beautiful, physically and spiritually. Through inheritance, education and travel, she was a gifted linguist. Her gracious and charming personality will always be held in pre- cious memory by those who knew her. An Organ - A Tribute to Mr. Catlin's Memory It was a dennite loss to Kew-Forest School and to the cause of education when, after a lingering illness, Mr. Catlin died September 20, 1935. In his memory a Hammond organ was presented to the school in 1936 by pupils, teachers, alumni and friends. This instrument adds to the reverence of the regular High School Assembly programs and it forms an important background to all Com- mencement programs. In 1928, Catherine Lewerth, a Junior in the school, designed and drew a seal in which she embodied the motto, Ad Summum, and these immediately became the oiiicial seal and motto for the school. Dr. Dixon, then a member of the teaching staff, wrote the otlicial school song in 1927: All Hail to Thee, Kew-Forest, which has been sung at every Commencement since that time. In 1928, Nedra Gullette, '29, wrote Cam Alma Mater, sung by the Seniors at every Commence- ment. At the suggestion of Doris Clarke, '33, Seniors began to lead Friday morning High School As- semblies in the winter of 1933, a custom that has been continued through the years. In the fall of 1931 a committee of Mothers, one from each grade, met at the home of Mrs. Elton W. Clark, mother of three girls in the school and with Mrs. Smart designed a school uni- form. As fashions change the skirt becomes longer or shorter, the waist line narrower or wider, but in the essentials the uniform has remained the THB BLOTTER same through the years. The girls are dressed economically, and in good taste, with their minds free for studies and not centered on what dress will be worn on the morrow. School Becomes Non-Profit Corporation On April 4, 1941, Mr. Marriott, Headmaster, mailed a letter to the parents stating that he had decided to retire and to close the school. In this way, Mr. Marriott brought to an end a distin- guished educational career. Meeting the crisis, a group of fathers of pupils met at the home of George O. Niddrie, April 18, 1941, and decided to make plans to continue the school. On june 20, 1941, a non-proht corporation was formed and on July 1, 1942, the complete ownership of the school property was acquired by the new cor- poration. A Board of Trustees, twenty-one mem- bers, have skillfully and unselfishly carried the responsibility of the corporation since that time. Judge Nicholas M. Pette, President, George O. Niddrie, Vice-President, Theodore M. Newhouse, Secretaryg Dr. Marlo P. Bates, Treasurer and Dr. Dixon, Headmaster, were the first corporate officers and these remain the same except that the Vice- President and Counsel is now Arthur H. Wheaton. In June 1941, Dr. Dixon, who had been Associate Headmaster since 1935, was appointed Headmaster by the Trustees and Mrs. Smart was appointed Dean. Among the outstanding innovations of the pres- ent administration is a remedial reading clinic, under the direction of a trained teacher, Mrs. Louise V. Smith. The pupils' eye movements are trained, the span of recognition is increased and the time of fixation is decreased. Because, in the process of education, rapid and comprehending reading is so important, the remedial reading clinic is a significant addition. There are new outdoor playground and indoor equipment for kindergar- ten. Two teachers are in charge, each of a morning and an afternoon group. Primary One room has been newly equipped. Sterilizing ultra-violet rays have been installed in the rooms of the youngest children. Visual education has this year become a reality, through the gift, from the Kew-Forest School Association, of machine and screen that make possible sound films. The Kew-Forest School Association of parents and teachers has been most generous to the school in the seven years of its existence, under the leader- ship of Mrs. Edmund W. Fitzgerald, Mrs. Charles A. Hersey, Mrs. George A. Orr and Mrs. M. M. Taylor, Presidents. In the program of the school one of the high spots of the year is Commencement, when, since 1926, an imposing academic processional is com- posed of Faculty members in gowns and hoods, Senior girls in white dresses, Senior boys in white tuxedos and black trousers. In following Com- mencements these features have been added: a color bearer, a small boy and girl in white academic gowns, carrying the diplomas. A profusion of flowers, choral music accompanied by the organ, three Senior speakers and a guest speaker all help to make a harmonious whole. Until 1926, the Commencement wasbheld at the school, simply and charmingly. Nine Commencements have been held in the Church-in-the-Gardens. Including this one of 1948, fourteen will have taken place in the Community House of Forest Hills Gardens. Mrs. g THE BLOTTER -aiwgidiixl f f ll' JM- .af fb 5 X ygyinifpxwlix ' X X f Smart has been responsible for many plans and details since 1926. Extra-Curricular Program Varied The extra-curricular opportunities have been many. A Student Council was organized in No- vember 1922, but did not survive. A Leaders Club, begun in 1926, proved to have too much emphasis on the club idea. In 1944 a Student Council was developed from the Leaders Club and is functioning as well as it can with the difliculty of finding time for meetings. The Headmaster and Dean are advisers. The Blotter was started as a small paper bound periodical of a few pages in April 1920. Fourteen small numbers, with pictures, advertisements and stories, printed without any particular plan, were published until 1925, when in the school year 1925-1926 four numbers, in good typographical style, were issued. Since that time a large, bound volume has appeared each year. This volume in 1948 is number 27. A sizable literary section ap- peared in 1925-26 and in the succeeding volumes. In 1930 and 1931, Laurose Schulze-Berg '31, wrote one story each, that took first prize in the story contest conducted by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. Cam Alma Mater was the dedi- cation poem of 1928. A French department was started in 1929. A Spanish department was inaugu- rated in 1943. At times German and Latin sections have been included. Many prizes and medals have been awarded the Blotter by the Columbia Scho- lastic Press Association, all through the years, with the ultimate of a perfect score, 100079, going to the medalist Blotter of 1940. Mrs. Smart has been adviser since 1925. Debating has been a major activity since the spring of 1928, under the leadership of Dr. Dixon and in conjunction with the Long Island Inter- scholastic Debating Association. A large number of pupils take part as debaters, time keepers, chair- men. Oral themes are taught in all English classes, leading to the experience in public speaking of debating. The oldest club is the Studio, formed by Miss Enid T. Doyle, in 1930. This is largely a working organization, for tl1e members make posters and programs for the school and drawings for the Blotter. Le Salon Francais, organized in 1931, is still functioning. El Circulo Panamericano, started in 1943, interests many pupils. The Glee Club, founded in 1926, has func- tioned through the years-at no time with more vitality than today. The Philanthropy Committee has been most active throughout all classes in the school since Thanksgiving 1925 and the sum of 385,369.50 has been raised for the American Red Cross, Infantile Paralysis Foundation, New York Times Neediest Cases, Fund for the Blind, Child Service League, St. Albans Hospital, New York National War Fund. The dinners for the underprivileged, Red Stockings for the Community Service, Books for Russia, Friendship Boxes for Europe, would be worth 34500 in addition to the above sum. Mrs. Smart and all home room teachers have been the advisers. Through the years, intermittently, a variety of activities and clubs have come and gone-Players, Camera, Science, Mathematics, Three Arts, Der Deutsche Verein. THE BLOTTER The School Has a Strong Program of Athletics In Athletics the school has been strong from the beginning. A dominant feature of the athletic program for boys and girls is that every physically lit pupil participates, in the Lower School and High School. The sports indulged in at Kew- Forest School prepare the graduates for the same kind of activity in College. The Girls Athletic Association, to which every High School girl belongs, was founded in October 1925, All girls are members of Red and Blue teams and these have continued in healthy rivalry. In March of every year, a Song and Stunt Contest is held before a large audience of parents and friends, when Red and Blue High School teams compete for winning honors. So enthusiastic over this contest have the girls become, that up to 1947, too much money and time were spent in prepara- tion. Beginning with 1947, this program has been conducted under a charter which regulates money and time that may be consumed in preparation. The field hockey team has been undefeated in 1926, 1928, 1951, 1935, 1943, 1946. In several different years All Long Island Hockey Teams have been chosen, with Kew-Forest School girls fea- tured and honored as leaders. Basketball has been the winter sport, with an undefeated team in 1930, 1940. Lacrosse was introduced in 1934 and had an undefeated team in 1946. At different seasons, the girls have competed in bowling, volley ball, soft- ball and tennis, in addition to the above mentioned sports. The coaching and leadership of Miss Doris E. Sonner, her assistants and her predecessors are shown in the results. The Boys Athletic Association is the organiza- tion for boys. Soccer has been the fall sport for years, with undefeated teams in 1946 and 1947. In the fall of 1947, an All Scholastic Queens Soccer Team was chosen with jack Ogden an hon- ored member. In the winter, boys play basketball, in the spring baseball, which team was undefeated in 1941. Mr. Charles W. Delahunt has lead the boys for several years in the successful sports mentioned above. Tennis was played by boys from 1928 through 1942, with Dr. Dixon many years the coach and team undefeated in 1928 and 1931. Other boys sports practiced at different times have been football, swimming, golf. The athletic pro- grams for each year culminate in two banquets,- one for girls and one for boys. These are two of the happiest occasions of the year, thoroughly en- joyed by parents, teachers, pupils, when many cups and awards are presented to girls and boys. Two World Wars Linked with School's History The school was founded during World War I. In World War II, twenty-three years later, in the enlisted U. S. Military services there served 6 members of the faculty, 70 alumni and 8 alumnae. With sincere patriotic fervor, pupils, teachers and parents bought War Bonds and served in many patriotic and philanthropic organizations. In the future as in the past, Kew-Forest School will continue its genuinely patriotic work of teach- ing and training each individual boy and girl in the school family to become, as far as possible, an intelligent citizen of the United States of America and a man or Woman alert to the need of the solution of the problems of the world.

Doyle, Art Mr. Homer Cleary, Spanish and Frenth THE BLOTTER Student Council HE Sludent Council, organized in the fall of 1944, is an evolution of the Leaders group, formed twenty-one years ago by Mr. Guy H. Catlin, Co-Founder of Kew- Forest School. The presidents and vice-presidents of all High School classes and major organizations are members of the Council. An oath of honor, drafted by members of the Council, has been taken by all High School pupils. In the oath, pupils have promised to uphold the honor and preserve the traditions of Kew-Forest School, to respect superiors and co- workers and to avoid any form of dishonestyf, The various committees include the executive, judicial, philanthropy, civic-pride and lost and found. Every year the philan- thropy committee supervises drives in the school for money to help needy people. Also, members of the Council assist in Study Hall and help other pupils in their studies. This year, for the first time in the history of the school, a Senior Day was held in April. Seniors took over teachers' duties for that day. It is hoped that this idea will be con- tinued in the following years. The members are: jack Ogden, president, Marilyn Moss, vice-president, joan Wolo- soH, secretary, Peter Kurtz, treasurer, Peggy Batterman, Ellin Brown, Barbara Epstein, Barbara Goedel, Helen Heuston, John Iskyan, Michael Landes, Josephine Lardaro, Mar- tin Levine, Mette Lie, Martha Mayers, james Monahan, Sally Morse, john Nicolle, Virginia Russo, Peter Schier, Bruce Slater, Peggy Streifler, Grace Stone, Helen Wild.

The boxes contained mittens, sox, sweaters, sewing materials, combs, soap, writing paper, pencils, crayons, pieces of inexpensive but attractive jewelry. Letters, warm with friendly greetings and written by the donors, accompanied the boxes,-letters to girls, boys, of different ages in eleven countries. The distribution of boxes follows: France, fifty-three, England, forty- seven, Holland, forty-four, Greece, twenty-two, Italy, seventeen, Czechoslovakia, thir- teen, Belgium, eleven, Poland, six, Russia, six, Iugo-Slavia, two, Malta, one. These shipments were made in cooperation with American WOmCl1lS Voluntary Services. A friendly rivalry among all classes in the Lower School and High School was stimu- lated by the preparation of the Friendship boxes and was carried over into the campaign in March for the American Red Cross. The sum of 35540.84 was contributed to this worthy organization. The co-chairmen of the philanthropy committee have been Mette Lie and john Nicolle, Home Room Representatives: Joan Maass, Mette Lie, Donald Manning, Helen Heuston, Nancy Allan and john Nicolle. The Lower School teachers and Dean Lucy Allen Smart are Advisers. 53 THE BLOTTER Stazfdifzg-Peter Kurtz fVice-Captainj, Marilyn Moss fCaptainJ.

Glee Club Encourages Mtlsical Talent HIS year, under the able supervision of Miss Margaret Eiveleit, the Girls Glee Club and Ensemble Group of Kew-Forest School have presented many delightful programs. At Christmas time, instead of the usual Caroling presentation the girls narrated the story of the Nativity with a musical background. For its Spring Concert a program was presented to revive some of the early zofh century ballads. An audience of the entire assembly was delighted by such familiar songs as Look for the Silver Lining and Alice Blue Gown. During the Easter Vacation a large group of girls from both organizations ate lunch at St0uffer's, New York City, and then, chaperoned by Miss Eiveleit saw a musical play. The 1947-48 officers of the Glee Club are: joan Wolosoff, president, Ellin Brown, vice-president, Helen Wild, secretary, Peggy Batterman, librarian. Started last year, a select group of voices called the Ensemble, has progressed rapidly. Members of this group must be in good standing of the Glee Club, must pass musical and vocal requirements and must be able to attend extra rehearsals. In October, aided by a talented group of Lower School children, the Ensemble presented a program for the Kew-Forest School Association with many piano and voice solos featured. 55 T H E B L o T T 13 R The Clubs Activities Tempered By Academic Pressure HE extra-curricular program of Kew-Forest School is as active as it can be, consistent with the strong pressure, today, on the academic side of school life. The program of required physical education takes up all the time for High School boys and girls, between three and five o'clock on school days. The full program of sports and schedules of games is printed elsewhere in this book. Club meetings must be held at noon, or three o'clock at school, or at the homes of members in the evenings. Pilgrimages to New York are taken when feasible to do so. A complete report of the clubs and organizations appears in the Artirfitier section in this book. Faculty members always act in an advisory capacity. Parents and Teachers Group Loyaly Helpful HE Kew-Forest School Association, composed of parents and teachers, has met at the school each second Monday afternoon. For the October meeting, pupils of the school gave a musical program under the direction of Miss Margaret Eiveleit. The suc- cessful Football Bridge was again held in November. The Association has given to the school an excellent machine and projector, which have been used in visual education. At the November meeting, Mr. Edward F. Dickenson, Vice-President of United Worlcl Films, demonstrated the use of the machine. On January 12, in the evening, Miss Wiiiifred Fisher, Director, New York Adult Education Council, spoke on the subject, LE SALON FRANCAIS Virginia Russo, Marilyn Moss, Denise Dewan, Mr. Homer J.

Taubman in 1943, continued to function under the supervision of Mr. Homer Cleary. The club helps keep alive the interest of its members in Spanish culture and language, thus making for keener Pan-American understanding. Members of the club are now maintaining correspondence with many Latin American friends whose addresses were secured by the Adviser. A Spanish play, Uno de ellof debe raz.m1'Je by Ruth Henry, enacted by the students, provided ine recreation and amusement for all.

Because the rehearsals and preparations were so enjoyable, the club is planning another dramatic activity, which it hopes to present next year at a Kew-Forest School Association meeting. Other excursions by the members, including a visit to a French restaurant and movie, proved a Worthwhile experience, thoroughly entertaining to all. The French Club officers are: Marilyn Moss, president, Virginia Russo, vice-president, Denise Dewan, secretary: Ruth Greenbaum, treasurer.

Any member of the art classes is eligible, and this year students have assisted and aided the school by preparing posters, programs for Glee Club concerts, and scenery for plays. The group has also produced exceptional art work for the Blotter.

The members are: Camilla Cronin, Carlotta Cronin, Edward Foudy, Paul Hersey, Michael Landes, Ioan Maass, Ann MacNeil, Arthur Panero, Betty Pferdmenges, Ioan Pohlman, Brad Scharf, Peter Schier, Robert Staab, Thomas Sullivan, Alfred Toigo, Joy Williams.

A place where thoughts can stretch out, the good thoughts and the bad, the kind thoughts and the selfish? Or perhaps just a place where all your thoughts can stroll and yawn in the beauty around about? When your income tax gets balled up, your bank books won't balance, or your history won't outline, you just have to let your thoughts escape to your Central Park. It's so much fun to let your thoughts glide across ice-pondsg when thoughts collide and fall, they get up, grin, and try again. As the seasons change, your thoughts can row and drift about the lake, hold hands with someone dear, or get a workout with some mental foot- ball. Sometimes you may want to stretch out on the grass and let your thoughts soar like children's kites-colorful, restless, sometimes uncertain but always full of dreams and laughter. At least once a year, a spring cleaning is in order. Then your good thoughts have a chance to get rid of their litter left by the bad Ones and regain their sparkle. Don't let work and worry get you down. Head for Central Park.

Yesterday, I left school in the rain. It can be pleasant when you are equipped for it, but I was not. I saw people rushing on the street. Most of them had raincoats and umbrellas. How I envied them! When I reached my home, of course I could not find my key. Something like that always happens when one is in a hurry. After I finally was inside the house I felt that I was soaking wet and my hair! I heard an angry voice say: Mette, don't you dare come further with those clothes on. You will make the whole house wet! I was angry and felt full of self pity. It is not enough to be angry because of the weather, but, not to be allowed to step into my own home! Today, walking home, it was much nicer. In fact, it was almost fun. The sun was shining and I saw people quietly walking on the street. Children were happily playing on the street. Opening the door at home I heard a happy voice say: Is that you, Mette?

For when it came to writing He'd chisel on a stone, Bat when had try to lift it It left him rather prone. In the early Middle Ages The monks did realy strive Teaching lads to keep The spirit of learning alive. It was no simple matter As easy as it looks, For men liked weapons better Than the study of old books. In Medieval Days, The minstrels were the rage For singing to the people, In the streets and on the stage. And when it came to writing, Plumes were just the thing, For the educated subjects, The royalty and king. In Feudal Times the boys Were taught the manly art By the lords of every castle Who was sure to be quite smart. The girls were taught to sew, Embroider and to read, While the ladies of the castles Would weave fine cloths indeed. B L 0 T T E R Progress Through the Ages In Olden Times the churches Claimed all the education, At the start of 1800 It was taught by every nation. Writing was done with charcoal And used in many a school. Pupils felt the hickory stick For not heeding the Golden Rule. All down through the ages, Progress has been made, To further education to the highest grade Speaking of the highest Thinking of the best, I have a thought in mind, And a fine school to suggest. just thirty years ago, A school was built right here. It was the finest building That could possibly appear. For culture and athletics, And many a golden rule There couldn't be a better place Than the Kew-Forest School ! All through another decade, Fine citizens will say That they have had success In the good old U. S. A. With better education And higher intellect, After coming from Kew-Forest School, What can you expect?

Sometimes I went out on the lake in a rowboat. I always liked to go down the water Chute into the lake.

Cest ce qu'indique notre titreg car hier seule- ment, selon ce qui parait a present, une petite fllle a franchi le seuil de notre ecole bien-aimee, et aujourd'hui elle s'en estime une partie. Cest ce que nous avons tous senti a un moment plus ou moins eloigne. Mais qui sommes-nous, les presents, si l'on peut employer le mot, pour parler du temps proche et du sentiment toujours vif des gradues d'une generation entiere qui a passe par Kew-Forest, qui a fait ses cours et a connu son charme? Pour la plupart d'eux, la plus belle epoque de la vie s'est melee avec quatre ou plus de ces trente ans. Ou pour parler en outre des professeurs, des directeurs, et des fondateurs, dont les annees les plus fertiles se sont passees entre les murs de notre jeune alma mater. Ils doivent aussi trouver parfois que le temps passe trop vite, et que c'etait hier qu'ils ont decide de consacrer leurs efforts at la belle oeuvre que presente maintenant notre ecole. A celui qui travaille a cette oeuvre, 5. quelque titre que ce soit, il reste pourtant la seule chose que le temps passe conserve dans l'esprit de chacun: les amis et les bons camarades, les joies et les peines de la vie quotidienne, la satisfaction d'avoir rempli son clevoir, d'avoir progress-e pour son propre bien, ou pour le bien d'autruig en somme, ce que nous appelons-des souvenirs.

Nous avons traverse au mois de septembre, mais comme le navire etait de grandes proportions, je n'ai pas .5-are malade. New-York m'a beaucoup plu, et je n'ai jamais oublie les lumieres de Broadway. je ne me doutais pas a ce moment que quelques annees plus tard j'ecrirais ici cette composition a Kew-Forest. Nous sommes revenus sur le Champlain, qui fut coule pendant la guerre en 1940 par les Allemands. En 1940, pour la troisieme fois, j'ai traverse l'Atlantique sur une petite Ucoquille de noix, appele le Siboney. C'etait un bateau de petite taille avec beaucoup de passagers. fai ere malade des le premier jour presque jusqu'a l'arrivee. Comme c'etait la guerre, il a fallu que nous nous arretions aux Bermudes pour que les autorites anglaises s'assurent qu'i1 n'y avait pas d'Allemands at bord. Quelques jours plus tard, de notre hotel nous avons entendu taper a minuit les celebrations joyeuses cle la foule acceuillant 1941. ll y a deux ans nous sommes encore retournes en France pour un voyage de deux mois, cette fois d'une facon beaucoup plus rapide, at bord d'un avion Constellation de la Compagnie T. W. A. Au lieu d'une semaine en bateau, cela nous a pris seulement une journee. Cette fois j'ai revisite tous les endroits celebres que possede Paris, y-compris la chambre ou je couchais toute petite avant la guerre. Apres avoir fait nos adieux at la famille, nous sommes alles a l'aerodrome. Apres avoir attendu une heure, on nous a dit que l'avion ne partirait pas avant le lendemain. Alors nous sommes retournes at notre famille tres surprise. Le lendemain nous sommes repartis pas tres convaincus qu'il ne faudrait pas encore revenir a la maison, et les adieux cette fois paraissaient moins serieux. Mais cette fois l,avion est parti, et vingt-quatre heures plus tard nous nous sommes retrouves 51 La Guardia, sans incident apres les deux arrets habituels at Shannon et at Gander. Nous sommes revenus dans un avion DC4 de T. W. A., parceque les Constella- tions avaient cause des difncultes et ne volaient plus. C'etait la ma cinquieme traversee de l'ocean. Je suis heureuse aux Etats-Unis. Impossible de dire, en ce moment, si je ferai, un jour, ma sixieme traversee.

Como sabe todo el mundo en Nueva York, el que se levanto por Ia mariana vio el suelo cubierto de nieve, yyque seguia nevando sin ninguna serial de cesar. Llego a ser la peor nevasca desde la de 1888. Durante aquella tormenta habia mas viento, pero esta vez Cayo mas nieve, excediendo veinte y Cinco pulgadas. Los amos de casa y los padres, y tambien las madres, de familia empezaron el trabajo dificil de quitar de las aceras la nieve. Casi toda la transportacion de la ciudad se detuvo 0 se adelanto muy despacio. Los trenes subterraneos siguiron funciando, pero los trenes de la linea Long Island tuvieron que pararse. Por consecuencia, muchas personas que habitaban los suberbios se vieron impedidos de llegar a sus lugares de negocios, y por Io tanto, se quedaron en casa. Por todas partes que fui, los automoviles estaban detenidos. Vistos desde un avion, los caminos parecian llenos de monticulos de nieve. Pero, verdaderamente, eran automo- viles sepultados en la nieve. Es preciso decir que la administracion civil de Nueva York dio billetes a muchos dueios de coches, porque impedian la eliminacion de la nieve. En muchos casos, pasaron dos semanas antes de llegar los trabajadores a la basura. A1 fin, Neuva York estuvo otra vez en los pies. Entonces, cuando llovio, la gente creyo que la nieve se iria, pero en lugar de ameliorar las condiciones, la lluvia se convirtio en nieve, y habia mas que antes. En este momento, mucha gente cree que permanecera la nieve hasta el mes de julio JACK OGDEN, '48 82 T H E B L o T T E R Una conocida mia U :za nzucbacba que 121171642 mzbajalm Su tiempo efz la ociofidad pafaba, Y por em la genie decia Que perezom yin dzzda parefia.

PATRICIA OKOSHKEN, '49 Nueva York 10 de junio de 1948 Querida amiga mia, Anoche asisti a una tertulia muy deleitableg fui invitada por mi bella amiga, Juanita. Despues de saber en cuando y donde tendria lugar, acepte la invitacion con mucho gusto, porque desee conocer algunos jovenes americanos. A las Ocho de la noche llegue a casa de mi nueva amiga. Cuando entre en la sala, fui presentada a los Convidados. Todo el mundo cantaba y bailaba y charlaba de varias cosas. Al principio no estuve a mis anchas, pero por supuesto a poco me divertia muchisimo. Todos los jovenes parecian muy interesados de lo que decia yo de nuestra vida en Espafiag por ejemplo, nuestras siestas, comidas, fiestas, loterias, y varias costumbres. Conte de unos monumentos, de catedrales importantes, de palacios hermosos, de museos, y de corridas de toros. Hacian preguntas sobre los medios de transporte, los teatros y restau- rantes, los parques y los rios, y las Casas y tiendas. En efecto, hacian un viaje corto a Espana a medio de mi conversacion. Pronto nos sirvieron helado, dulces, frutas, pasteles, y cafe 0 naranjada. Al tocar la orquesta, me levante a bailar muchas vecesg y a mi me gusta aun mucho cierto joven con quien mas tarde camine a casa. Todos se presentaron muy amables y muy corteses, y me alegro de que haya encontrado a tal grupo Eno de amigos en la America del Norte. De todos modos llegue a casa a las doce y media, a fondo cansada, pero muy contenta. De veras, a menudo quisiera que Vd. pudiera estar aqui conmigo para ver todas las cosas maravillosas de este pais. Quizzis vendra Vd. un dia a los Estados Unidos para ver exactamente lo que quiero decir.
