' 50 23 Senior Class Trip On Monday, April 17, the Senior Class accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan left for New York and Washington, D. C. Arriving in New York, we went by bus through lower New York City, and the enjoyed an interesting ferry ride across the Hudson River. We then went to Baltimore, Maryland, where we saw some points of interest, including St. Mary ' s School which Babe Ruth attended. Upon reaching Washington, and before going to our hotel, the Martinique, we visited the Congressional Library, and the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials. On Tuesday, after a visit to the Arlington National Cemetery with its Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and the Memorial Amphitheatre, we proceeded to Mount Vernon, the home and shrine of George and Martha Washington, returning to Washington via the Mount Vernon Highway. We traveled along the famous 16th Street, where we saw the many foreign embassies. We also went to the Capitol building, but it was National go to your Grandmother ' s funeral day. That is when the President tosses the first ball in a baseball game at the stadium on the opening day of baseball season. Wednesday morning, we visited the Bureau of Printing and En- graving, the Washingotn Monument, Smithsonian Institute, Museum of Natural History, and the Mellon Art Gallery. The afternoon was devoted to a lectured tour of the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis. We left Washington, D. C., on Thursday. Enroute to New York, we stopped in Philadelphia for a sightseeing tour during which we saw Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. Upon our arrival in New York we immediately went to the Hotel Taft. That evening, in a per- formance at Radio City Music Hall, we saw The Daughter of Rosie O ' Grady and the Easter Pageant, which featured the Rockettes. Friday morning was left open for those who wanted to sleep, shop, or gallivant around the city. In the afternoon, we were taken on a lectured tour of upper New York City, which included Riverside Drive, Grant ' s Tomb, Columbia University, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Harlem, Fifth Avenue, and St. Patrick ' s Cathedral. From here, we went to Grand Central Station, where we boarded our train for good old Worcester. Everyone had an enjoyable time, and the Seniors wish to express their appreciation to Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan, and to Walt Lee, our bus driver, whose efforts made the trip doubly enjoyable.
