Our scope of merchandising was broadened, per- haps because of the class sentiment that ''We'll go, even if we have to swim the Hudson. Now, we can look back gratifyingly on the weekly visits to Bamberger's in Jersey, where head buyers of the numerous departments discussed the relationship of consumer demands to our current work. With pride, we cite the vanguard of our class of 1947 who has already attained recognition as decorating consultant in Haynes De- partment Store. She is Jeanne Pouch, a February graduate. Other members of the class have plied their hand in the field through such affiliations as Bill Meek's association with ''Dan Cooper, and with Town and Country ; and the free-lancing of Muller, Keeling, Brand and Calkins. Trips to museums, Good Housekeeping Institute, and Parents Magazine helped us to keep abreast of the current market demands. Many a museum guard has been puzzled to hear an interior design student point out a Queen Anne leg with a Louis XIVth feeling. On the outside, our class has gained recog- nition through participation in competitions. In one contest, sponsored by Parents Magazine, Jane Cutton, Sally Rob, and Hank Keeling each received twenty-five dollar awards. Their prize- winning designs of a room for two teen-age girls were exhibited in the publication Calling All Girls. Il say old girl’ Jack Muller was awarded one hundred dollars for his design submitted in the Chicago Herald Tribune Contest for the design of an interior. In the years to come, when we shall be prin- cipally occupied with the fervor of the American way of life, we can recall with satisfaction the imbued impressions of our three-year sojourn in Pratt.
