AWARDS Cindy Halstead, Elaine Kale Kayette Camp Joyce Cranston Betty Crocker Homemaker Award Joyce Cranston, Kerry Kramer, Ed Dunstan Washington-New York Seminar Ed Dunstan, Kerry Kramer, and Joyce Cranston attended a seminat which consis- ted of a tour through some of the eastern states and expecially New York City and Washington, D.C. In New York City they met in the UN buildings with repre- sentatives from foreign countries and the United States to discuss current in- ternational issues. All sides of the issues were viewed, but the students were encouraged to form their own opinions. While in New York they were fortunate to attend the broadway play, Golden Boy . Other features of their stay in New York were a visit to Grenwich Village, the top of the Empire State Building, and sev- eral of the famous churches of New York. At the capitol in Washington, D. C. they conversed with our senators and representatives and visited many of the national monuments and shrines, the capitol grounds, the White House, several embassies and churches there.
