S. 1944 bound for the port of Graduation with Mr. Willis at the helm and Mr. Brubaker as chief petty officer Cto keep order below decksj It was smooth sailing until we hit a storm in which many of the crew became sea sick and were therefore put ashore. At Sophomore land we stopped for refueling and then watched the new crew being put aboard. They were a really green lot. The following September we steamed out of port bound for Juniorville. The voyage passed as did the last except that on nearing Juniorville the captain decided he needed help in charting our course so he appointed Mrs. Neubauer and Mr. Sawyer as navigators. The crew elected William Chechar as the first mate and Dorothy Thomas as second mate. ,lean Whyte kept the log and Robert l-loogervorst sat on the treasure chest. We steamed into Juniorville with flags waving and the crowd cheering with all its might. For the fine work we had done we were given three months liberty. At the end of that time we set sail for Seniorpoint. Before we had traveled many miles out of port the crew elected Russell Morache as first mate, Marguerite Thomas succeeded Dorothy as second mate, and Eleanor Trencan kept the log with Thomas Menn to guard the treasure. This voyage proved enjoyable to all because of the many social functions always going on. On crossing the equator the first mate relinquished his post to Robert l loogervorst while August l'-lertl became second mate with Betty ,lean Dal Santo as keeper of the log and Lorraine Odziomek became custodian of the treasure. The winds were so favorable we reached Seniorpoint ahead of schedule. At Seniorpoint another liberty of three months was granted after which, we started on the final lap of our voyage. With our goal so close, it was heartbreaking to say goodbye to those of our companions who were placed on shore duty and could not finish this eventful voyage with us. Once at Sea we worked harder than ever before getting the ship ready to steam into the port of Graduation. But don't think it was all work and no play, for we did give parties and dances and enjoyed them all. ln the last months of the voyage the crew decided to publish a book of their travels called the Spirit of '44 . A staff was appointed and work began. ln the meantime Robert l-loogervorst handed his post as first mate over to Thomas Menn, and August l-lertl was succeeded by Edward Musial with ,lo Simoni and Marguerite Thomas succeeding Betty Jean Dal Santo and Lorraine Odziomek as secretary and treasurer respectively. On June 23, 1944, we sighted land, and on the 94th we landed. It is with tears in our eyes that we bid goodbye to the ship and our companions to find our places in the world. ln years to come we shall look back on these four years as the happiest of our lives.
