One of the highlights of our Senior year was our trip to New York. We left Indianapolis by way of Trans World Airlines and upon arriving in New York, we checked into our hotel on Times Square. During that day we toured the Radio and T. V. Studios of NBC at Radio City, attended a show at Radio City Music Hall and enjoyed the sights on Times Square that night. The next day we toured Upper and Lower New York, including many of the famous land marks such as the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building and many others. The following day we enjoyed a boat ride around Manhattan Island and visited the United Nations building. We had all day Sunday free to plan as we wished. Many of us saw the famous Easter Parade on Fifth Avenue. We left New York that night on a Greyhound Scenicruiser bus by way of the New Jersey and Pennsylvania Turnpikes. We saw Philadelphia, Valley Forge and Pittsburgh. We returned home a tired, but happy group Monday evening.
