THE TREASURE CHEST -- YVAS ll I N G'I'0N Tllll' Un the eighteenth of March at 4-130 A.M. we of the Senior Class congregated in the auditorium with five chaperones: Dr. Marion C. Vlfoolson, Mr. Bishop A. Oxen- ford, Mr. Mathew li. Cirieolo, Miss M. Margaret Smith, and Miss Catherine Wirth. Outside. near the buses, stood our parents and our luggage. About 5 A.M.. with a gala send-off, the three buses drove out of the school yard bound for Washirigttmn, D. C. The drive down was very interesting and educational. We arrived at Potomac Park at l l :30 A.M., where we ate our lunches. After lunch we visited the Bureau of Engraving and Printing Where United States stamps and money are made. Next we asc-ended the famed YVashington Monument and viewed the entire city and surrounding country from its peak. Many seniors had sore joints from not taking advantage of the elevator. Next we went to the Pan American Building, set in entrancing tropical splendor. The purpose of this Union is to estab- lish peace in the western hemisphere. The last building we visited before going to the Continental Hotel for dinner was the United States Capitol, where we saw the Senate in session. After our much-needed evening meal we drove to the spacious Congressional Library and the Lincoln Memorial. a beautiful monument, to enshrine forever the memory of Lincoln. After very little sleep a droopy-eyed class arose at 6 A.M. to begin another excit- ing day of sight seeing. We visited the Franciscan Monastery with its decorative gardens and gloomy catac-omhs. Here we also saw replicas of the holy tombs of Jerusa- lem. After a tour of the business section we stopped at the Zoological Gardens, where we spent a very amusing forty-live minutes. Many Seniors considered this the most interesting of all visits in Wfashington. Here many photographs were snapped of students posing with the animals. Then. high up on Mt. St. Alban we entered one of the most inspiring sights of all. the great unhnished National Cathedral. After lunch we drove to Vlfashingtogtis country home on the Potomac River, pic- turesque Mount Vernon. Virginia. Here on the lawn overlooking the river the class picture was taken. Next we drove to Arlington National Cemetery to pay tribute to those who died that this nation might live. We visited the Lee Mansion. the pillared Amphitheatre and tht- Totnh of the Unknown Soldier. l7ollowing dinner at tht- Continental Hotel the majority of the 1-lass went to the lfarle Theatre. Next morning we arose, even more tired than the day before, and visited The Freer Art Gallery, Aircraft Building, Old Museum and the Xvhite House. Un the way home we stopped at Annapolis Academy where we saw the dress parade of the miclshipmen. XVe arrived home tired but very happy. This trip will live always in our memory. a thrilling climax to four happy years at Manasquan. Yiuenty-one l
