ng? 1? fb, We invade our nation's Capitol. THE WASHINGTON TRIP Bright and early on May 13, 1959, 157 Seniors left for a three-day visit to our nation's capital. With Seniors waving a happy farewell to parents and sleepy Juniors, the buses pulled out-loaded with suitcases, cameras, and radios. Some of the places visited on the first day were: St. Alban's Cathedral, the Washington Mon- ument, and the Jefferson and Lincoln Memorials. About five o'clock the rain- drenched Seniors checked in at the Dodge Hotel. After a mad scramble to match the right keys to the right rooms, they were soon ready for an evening of fun at the National Symphony Orchestra Concert, the movies, or the swimming pool. On Thursday morning everyone, especially the chaperones, was rather drowsy. Nevertheless, they toured the F.B.l. building, the Bureau of Printing and Engrav- ing, Mt. Vernon, and the Arlington Cemetery before lunch. The afternoon activi- ties included visits to the Smithsonian Institute and the Mellon Art Gallery. For the evening, the Seniors had their choice of attending a ball game or the movies, or going swimming. Friday morning the Seniors prepared to pay their last respects to Washington, D. C. Before starting homeward, they got an opportunity to see the Capitol, White House, and the Supreme Court Building. On the way home everyone, espe- cially the girls, enjoyed a tour of the U.S. Naval Academy. At approximately eleven o'clock, the buses arrived at the high school filled with weary Seniors, souvenirs, and happy memories, 53
