- 1 1 Shamrock Stall: . .. .. WE'RE OFF! After anticipating the trip to New York for many weeks, the big moment finally arrived. Parents and many members of the student body bade us farewell', at Akron's Pennsylvania Station while popping flashbulbs and cheerful goodbyes marked our departure. We invaded the Big City,' early the next morning. Upon our arrival at the hotel, we were ES surprised to see Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt as she was leaving the hotel. Via If the subway we traveled to Columbia University, where we attended con- W74 ferences all day, learning the correct procedure for building better year- ullf books. That evening we were enthralled by the Rockettes, the greatest precision dancers in the world, and the movie, 'tAn American in Paris , ff' at Radio City Music Hall. Bright and early Saturday morning we boarded l a Udouble-decker bus for the University to attend the last of the con- ferences. A luncheon at the Hotel McAlpin closed the convention. Satur- day afternoon was spent browsing through many exclusive shops. The twinkling lights of the city looked like fairyland in the stratosphere on the roof of the R.C.A. Building Saturday night. Sunday was begun in . grand style with Solemn High Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral. Our week- mf ll end was climaxed Sunday afternoon by a thorough sight-seeing tour, from Fifth Avenue to the Bowery, which ended at Pennsylvania Station. As the train moved westward nothing remained but the happy memories. ALL ABOARD V 2? X Bnffom Ifmv: T. Wozniak, Sister Bernice, L. Fruscella, E. Kidder, M. A. Hutch- mwl inson. Row 2: lVl.
