V1-aw - Vf s fgggg aylzzncgffofz To the tune of 'Here We Come', found on page 48 of Southern's Song Book, the B. or O.'s 1930 streamlined de luxe train sped out of the 24th St. station at 8:02 A. M., with 147 A Class Members on board . . . . The intelligentsia, Mr, Cades, with a diminutive set of checkers and Mr. Micocci with a lengthy novel were enjoying themselves in a refined way together with Messrs. Epstein, Gregory and Bickards. Doc Ker, Southern's best whistler could be heard above the, I pass, O'er the Field, Pass me a sandwich, etc. .... Poor sports editor Giletto, had only 6 sandwiches to eatg his father wouldn't let him take 14 . . . You should have heard the wolves howling and running and jumping in glee, while fixing their ties and slicking their hair when two more cars were added to the train. There were girls, yes G-I-R-L-S in the adjoining cars!! lt took only 3 hops and one broadiump to clear the barrier between the cars so DiCicco, Brown, Fyne, and every other travelling senior had abandoned his car in double quick time .... With 300 more huffs and puffs the engine panted into the Baltimore Station with nary a casualty! Only one thing was Wrong, Joe Giletto kept hollering, '1'm hungryl' They didn't seem to expect us at the Capital. There wasn't any band! . . 1 . Bight into the waiting buses and on our way once more, but not until we sang the chorus to the ditty on page 48! Even if we didn't have a band! .... Once in the bus, Bip, one of the drivers, tried to explain the passing scenery above the shouting voices topped by Packard's, Pardon me, but where's Marqie's house? . . . 1-le was trying to help that fellow in Bringing Up Father .... lt took our driver only lV2 hours to get from the B. 6: O. Station to Wash .... Half the time he turned the corners on two wheels and the other half, on one . . . Said it was to save rubber . . . The Folger Shakespearean Memorial was the first stop on our list . . . Mr. Cades was in his glory scrutinizing every last nook and corner of the place . . . By noon time enough shutters on cameras had clicked to put 1700 more film developers to work . . . With the Supreme Court Building and the Capitol next on the list, rush, rush, rush, was the order of the day . . . lt didn't take us long to see how serious the Congressmen looked! those who were awake and present . . . Oh for the life of a Congressman! Everyone was impressed by the straight white rows of stones at Arlington Cemetery. Most impressing, however, was the ceremony at the tomb of the Unknown Soldier in which everyone partook . . .Glassman played taps while Gloria and Stagliano laid a wreath at the base of the tomb. The entire student group, then saluted the flag . . . Back into the bus and on to the New Colonial Hotel! A real hotel, with a lobby and hot and cold running water, little freshman. Up to our rooms and 'woah' there's Stratis trying to steal a bed from someone's room . . . Only 5 minutes to Wash up and put our dinner jackets on. Long did all right for himself. Seeing a few girls patiently Waiting for a waiter to clear their table, our head cheer leader obliged by stacking up the dishes on their table and removing them . . . Rumor hath it that he took names and addresses instead of a monetary remuneration . . . Then some one found a piano and I. Snyder very aptly played that tune on page 48. with every true staunch Southern fellow singing . . . Art Cos- cenza gave impromptu Old Man Ribberf' much to the delight of the entire hotel . . . Doc Ker once again led the whistling in songs which required loud, vociferous chirping . . . lt was Doc who suggested Snyder play Turkey in the Straw, for the small town visitors . . . 60

Trip The whole evening was staring us in the face . . . Free to do as we wished most of the boys went to a show procuring rows A, B, C. center aisle. The manager wouldn't allow them to get any closer . . . Some other elite seniors went strolling. The dynamic Mr. Giletto looked like the real McCoy with that Brier between his lips. Bob Ayella, photographer for the News didn't look bad either . . . About l2 P. M. the town shut down and it was back to the lobby, for as long as they kept it lit. About 2 o'clock or so they dropped us a slight hint. They began to close the lights . . . They wouldn't sell any candles either, so it's up to our rooms, and Yowie! lO lads on and around my bed playing cards. Two-thirty the hotel detectives began to make their rounds, telling everyone not to snore too loudly . . . Seven-thirty, breakfast! Come and get it, ii you can . , . Fruit luice, Wheaties, Pancakes and Coffee, a breakfast of Champions. Into the bus, without fuss, away to the Washington Monument and up those 555 feet. We didn't mind the feet, but our ear drums, buzz, buzz, buzz. The old physics law certainly caught it that day. Back to the heart of the city and into the museums, to see what makes us tick. Mr. Rickards was the side show, with a handkerchief trick. He used someone else's handkerchief of course, The Pan American Building with its fountain and gold fish. We saw the 3 little fishes and poor little guppie asking his ma why poppy Ian away. Time to Dine. Lunch Time Back to the hotel for Phila. Clam Chowder leading the menu. Most of us later went to the Franciscan Monastery, whereas, the more athletic minded went to Griffiths Stadium, to root the A's on to victory. They had the opportunity to talk to the 'Grand Old Man', Connie Mack. Smith, Panzano, Berardi, Scutella, Neborak, Long, Di Paola were among the lucky fellows. The boys in Rip's bus had a fine time, too. Mr. Cades gave us the pleasure of his presence. Rip said he had to be initiated, so paddled he was, as he ran down the aisle. Back to the New Colonial and dinner. Southern Fried Chicken headed the menu, with string beans as the vegetable. Another night, but this was different! Four bits and zoom, we were driven to their Willow Grove. The park was chuck full of excitement! There were all of 5 different amusements! I-fo hum, right up to bed, half dead from being on the go, rather from being on the shootethe-shoots. The Finale So Long-But NOT GOOD-BYE Up at 7 thirty frush to breakfast! Back to our rooms grab the packed bag, tno not Margie, Packard? and away from the hotel for the last time! . . . Next big item was Dinner on the Diner. The only resemblance to our diner and the Chattanooga Choo Choo's is, both diners had wheels. Buckey DiSimmone and Lou Bonnaventura entertained with a song and dance . . . Finestein and Wasserman gave us Popper we gotta fnove up-town, with Mr. Micocci coming in on the Eh, ha, eh ha, part. 9 P. M. and all overayes, even the shouting! To you, lUth and llth graders, don't miss taking the trip with your class! Miss that extra special and malted at the Inn every day for a term or so but, don't miss the trip! Sl 'i 1. . V .
