CHRONICLE lass Zszfo ry At eight o'clock on September 9, 1942, our plane took off on its Hight--'- destination Graduationg a little town which is a favorite resort for the youth of the nation. Every boy and girl wishes to pass through this town, and like all others, we did too. It was a gorgeous day and the sun shone in all its splendor. As our plane lifted its wheels from the ground and soared skyward, our hearts leaped into our mouths, for we knew we were on an important flight, and it was up to us whether we reached Graduation or not. The weather reports were favorable, but who could foretell what might come up in the future? Our pilot was Alan Edwards, the co-pilot, jerry Hotchkiss, navigator, Ruth Ann McNerney, radio-man, Arline Phelan. With this crew to guide us, we entered our first lap of this long journey. Air activities were few, and since we were still inexperienced, we were just as glad. Naturally, since we were just beginners in the uskywaysn-we hardly had the right-away. As we glanced out the windows of our plane, we saw the Seniorl' pass us-just wait till our plane could carry that caption. We, of course, were called Freshmen We often got off the beam but we flew along and trusted in our crew. Our first stop was uSophomore where we had a stop-over of ten months. As we departed from the airport, we were told to be sure to be at the base at eight oiclock, September 20, 1943 when we would begin the second lap of our journey. We met on the appointed date and as we once more took our seats on the plane, which now was christened Sophomore,' the title we had earned, because we had reached our first stop without mishap, we became acquainted with our new crew, Pilot, Jimmy Wallace, co-pilot, Bill Nardi, navigator, Agnes Zakrewskig and radio- man, Dick Marinelli. The weather reports were favorable, and we began to feel that there would be smooth flying from now on. There were numerous air activities this time, but since we were on the second lap of our flight, we handled the situation very well and even managed to increase our supplies. This section of the journey went along very smoothly, and in no time we were fastening our safety belts in preparation of a 4-pointn landing at junior-town. As we parted at the airport to have some fun during our stop-over period, we looked at each other with a vague glimpse of astonishment. Our journey would be over in no time - for here we were, watching our plane being shoved into the hangar and the streamline model which belonged in the high-brackets of the skyways and preserved the right-of-way, was being tested and the name Ujuniori' painted upon its fuselage. Junior was a beautiful plane and our feeling of being in the upper-bracketsl' began to ease into our senses. Yes, we had a new crew, too. Vito Riccio replaced Jimmy Wallace as pilot, William Height replaced Bill Nardi as co-pilot, Jean Cockayne replaced Agnes Zakrewski as navigator, and Ralph Riccio replaced Dick Marinelli as radio-man. Soaring through the air, we took great pleasure in looking down at the planes flying below bearing the names of 'Treshmanw and Sophomoref' Our hearts were light aslwe winged our way to our last stop before reaching our destination. It can be said that this lap of our journey was the most enjoyable. There was hardly a minute that we weren't participating in air shows and the plane Junior was well-publicized and well-known throughout the Skyway. 17
