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. The closing events of our Senior Year were the Junior-Senior Reception: Senior Day, Friday, May 33 Baccalaureate, Sunday, May 5: and Commencement, Tuesday, May 7. 23

Nt ' 'Z at ,Q SENIOR CLASS 4. N PROPHECY .ff As reporters for the Tangier Chronicle, we were assigned to cover the reunion of the Class of '57 as they gathered at the Tangier High School after ten years of separation. Following is a report of our exp- erience. The first to arrive was the sponsor of their class, Mr. Harrison, who is now sports editor for the New York Times. As we were completing our interview with Mr, Harrison, we saw Larry Colson and Bob Norris. Lar- ry, a former basketball star for Tangier High, told us that he is doing very well as a ballet dancer. His manager, Bob Norris, informed us that Larry is now appearing at the Ballet Russe in New York. We then spotted Jeannette Rowings and went immediately to get an interview with this celebrity. As most of you know, Jeannette was elected Miss Tangier and Miss Indiana, and was then chosen Miss America for 1966. Coming to join her was Pat Hazelwood, a former cheer leader for T. H.S. She told us she is now the chief crane operator for the Cory Construction Company. As we glanced around the room, we saw Bob Yater, another former basketball great at Tangier High In our interview with him, we learned that he is living in a pent house apartment in New York and is he- ad of the Ladies' Lingerie Department at Macy's Department Store. Sitting to the right of us now was Betty and Larry Wirth with their famous quintuplets. We went ov- er and talked with them for a few minutes and they told us that they are now living on a chicken ranch in Wyoming. In addition, they have a weekly radio program called Chickens for Profit . Just arriving at that moment was the world famous bubble dancer, Lois McCol1am. She told us that she had just flown in from Las Vegas where she is appearing at the Bright Night . This Page Sponsored By: This Page Sponsored By: BALL'S FLOWER SHOP R. E. SMITH Rockville, Ind.
