. ,,', fl 1 'gk' V f S! ti st at B Q? 3 Ig it : EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA TOUR On the morning of November 7, 1949, forty-eight smiling faces of the Junior Class boarded a bus to visit various places of interest in eastern North Carolina. Miss Alice Haines and Major Roy Webster accompanied us on our trip. Upon arriv- ing at Chapel Hill, we went to the University of North Carolina. There we saw the library, stadium, swimming pool, and gymnasium. About eleven o'clock we were entering Durham, the great tobacco manufacturing city. While in the city, we ex- perienced a great thrill visiting Duke University where we spent quite a while in the beautiful Chapel. Next and last on our list was Raleigh. There we visited his- torical p1aces,such as the Capitol building, birthplace of Andrew Johnson, and museum. Leaving Raleigh at five o'clock we arrived home at approximately eight- thirty. Everyone enjoyed the trip. THE FREEDOM TRAIN During our Junior year we received word that the Freedom Train, which was touring the country carrying famous documents, was coming to Charlotte. We immediately made plans for the trip. We chartered a bus and left early on the morning the Freedom Train was to be in Charlotte. Whenwe arrived, there was along wait before we could enter the train and see the famous documents. Among them was a letter written by Columbus in 14933 the famous 19th Ammendment that gave the women the right to voteg the Gettysburg Address deliveredby Abraham Lincoln, onNovember 19, 18635 a copy of the treaty of peace recognizing the Independence of the United States of America and signed in Paris, September 3, l783g and many others. We had studied about these docu- ments all throughout our school career, but after we had seen them we had a better understanding of our Country's glorious history. 27
