ECOND CLA ss TEAR Although we didn't know it, the Second Class Year was to be our last academic year on the ship. We all had a lot of fun on the ship even though lt was trying beyond words at times. The firecrackers at Mast, the whistles blowing shrilly in the pas- sageways, the Jolly Green Giant's reveille checks as all the laddies bounced out of rack, the mess when the pipes burst during Christmas-all these will bring back more memories of good times had on the Empty Crate. This .year saw Cornelius Shields donate live Shield's Class sloops to the school and the Sailing . . ,M , mf V W ,, gg. Q? ' 59'f'7?Zg'7Wf ' 9 9 0 , I Mmm . R, . . ..,.,,,.1.. A. 4' f' it :iQ. ',.,,.

The dorms progressed and we were sure to be in them by September. Re- sponsibilities began to fall on our shoulders as the last Cruise we would make approached and the rates were Chosen. The ,last Pre-Cruise Dance came and went. We sailed, hoping the next time we did such a thing it would be under our license and at better pay.

FIRST CLASS CRUI E Ah, the last Cruise! Dublin, on the Emerald Isle, was our first port of call on what was probably the best of all three cruises. We first saw this city through a downpour, but this didn't serve to dampen our enjoyment of the country and its people. Trinity College, the Book of Kells, the Metropole, and the Nelson Pillar which have a special place in Cruise mem- ories. We thoroughly enjoyed Ireland and bade sad fare- well as we started down the Channel to Bremen. Bremen was full of educational opportunities in the wa- terfront industry, the value of German beer, and the fine taste of Rhine wine in an earthenware jug. Finding it a good place to shop, or just look around in, we did both and to large degrees. Leaving Bremen we set course for Ant- werp, and Paris. Montmartre, the Tomb of Napoleon, the Metro, Ver- 1 if , .41-. f, IP- -was-5 '2 .9 .- W , A -. viii .- V I T -5 -. A1775 X X N X' ?,,.,...,.l mf. ..

Paris is perhaps not the most beautiful city in the world, but it conveys more in its name alone than most any other city that we have seen. The run down to Naples allowed us to recuperate and gather our strength for Naples. Pompeii and the Amalh Drive were close by and well worth the ellfort to get to see them. Many of us contented ourselves with the boatdeck and sailing in the monomouys, rather than go ashore. Pushing aside the debris, we sailed from the Bay of Na- ples for Palma de Mallorca where we saw some of the most beautiful terrain and most fertile land in the world, pro- ducing up to four crops a year. The prices were good for shopping and many of us arrived in New York laden with woven straw baskets, carved shells, pearls, and tales of din- ners of squid and octopus. We left with just enough mon- ey in our pockets to get home. Coming back we finished stars, qualified to take the Lifeboatmanis Exam, and CCQ3d.39 Sfq f fx f L., A, Q
