Mr. Johnson Mr. Liewer were our sponsors. We ate breakfast in Fremont and from there we went to Boys' Town for a very interesting tour. Our next stop was the new Eppley Airfield where we toured the United Air Lines Flight Kitchen and ate our lunch. We also enjoyed watching a jet and commercial planes take off and come in. After lunch we visited Lang Aircraft Co. where some of the students took plane rides. The rest of the afternoon was spent shopping. We ate supper at the Hotel Regis . As a highlight of the day we attended the theatre of our choice. After a very long day we arrived back in St. Edward at approximately 2:45 a.m . with tired feet and pleasant memories.
