September, 19 3 5 HELLO-HELLO, AMERICA! This is your roving reporter bringing you news on events of the day. FLASH 'F 'F if al' 'lc William Penn High School for Girls opened its doors wide and welcomed a rather timid looking group of girls entering high school for the lirst time. Picture, if you can, the terrible depression and bewilderment of that first long, dreadful day. See in your imagination and laugh as I did at the actions of the new recruits. There's one girl staring at the painted words UP stairway, DOWN stairway. Hm, she mutters, both stairways look the same. Of course it might be that if you start walking up the DOWN stairway, you'll find yourself walking down backward instead of going up forward. I better not take any chances. There's a group over there waiting patiently for their change while one poor Freshie fstrictly in the high school sense of the wordj gets a lecture on asking for pennies when she hands in a nickel. Then there are always the rooms that can't be found, the disappointment of not being able to use the marble stairs, and the unfailing question of the teachers, Are you all ready for work? The first day ends. What a day, what a day! Folks, I'l1 tell you confidentially that this new, rather oddly assorted group is going to be the class of William Penn. Time will either make or break that statement. CHEERIO! October, 19 3 5 SCOOP! Hello, everybody. Here's a little news for you. The William Penn High School had its Installation today and, from what I overheard from the freshmen remarks, it must have been won' derful. It left my little blockheads, as yet, very much impressed. They're living, learn' ing, and going up. First floor only, of course. THE YEAR 1936 No news as yet 'I' if ' 'l' 'l' Education is making itself useful. September, 1937 Hello. Do you remember me? I'm your favorite reporter! FLASH 'F 'K 1' 'K if DIDN'T I TELL YOU, DIDN'T I? My little proteges have done it. They are the first class ever to have a president and secretary in their 11A term. I really must confess it was the influence of that marvelous, energetic sponsor, Mrs. Walker, that gave them the idea. Lillian Bishop, Prexy, and Mary Bickle, Secretary, started them off with a bang. A new idea of treasures was introduced and a budget made. With skimping here and being extravagant there, the budget totaled 34125. A campaign to save your pennies was launched. More than one person in the U. S. should take a hint, including myself. A skating party at the Chez'Vous was suggested, and work started on the idea. Confidentially, let me tell you I have no cause to worry about their becoming the class of William Penn. They're reaching the second landing and are going up! 52 CLASS HISTORY December, 19 3 7 Your Reporter is sorry to announce that the skating party is definitely out, but you can't keep 'em down. February, 1938 HELLO FOLKS! I'm bringing you my term report about that certain party. Class elections are over, with Kathryn Siegel as President, Josephine Stemple, Secretary, and Janet Barol, Treasurer of the 11B class. Class rings are the topic of discussion. They'll be ready to wear soon. Another less pleasant matter is the one about money for the treasury. So far the treasury is like my pocket--empty. Somewhere about the school there's an idea forming. Why not have a White Elephant sale? Why not, indeed? Yours, April, 1938 The 11B class of the William Penn High is proud to announce that on April 1 it made a clear profit of S29 on the White Elephant sale. September, 1938 AMERICA ' ' ' ' ' MAY I PRESENT THE 12A CLASS OF WILLIAM PENN? Margaret Chambers, Theodora Gyza, and Janet Barol constitute the class officers. The girls, working energetically, are giving a play and dance at the Rittenhouse Hotel on February 1. While the players are busy rehearsing, the other students are sending out invitations to the members of the 12B class to attend a baby party. It looks as if a busy term is in the olhng. December, 1938 The 12B's send their gracious thanks to their hosts for the lovely time they had at the baby party. February, 1939 ZOWIE ' ' 'l' ' ' HAVE YOU HEARD THE NEWS? A clear and magnificent pro6t of 545.75 was made on the sale of tickets for the play and dance. The ad book is expected to bring in about 546. This will help the treasury to become a gold mine. It's up to S113 now! SAME MONTH, SAME YEAR, SAME PLACE. What have we here? Ah! A new election, and again we have Kathryn Siegel, President, Olivette Connor, VicefPresidentg Lillian Bishop, Secretary, and Gladys Driesbach, Treasurer. Plans are being made for graduation. Committees are forming and chairmen are taking charge. Pictures are already taken and the record book started. The class is going to Washington the first week'end in May, and the Prom will be held in May at the Melrose Country Club. After May comes june, and after june comes-what?? june, 1939 This is your Roving Reporter, roving for the last time! Folks, my heart is full of pride. Pride because that one and only class of mine has reached the top, and as the elevator man says to the customers, so the school says to them, All out, please. There they go, waving a cheery goodbye to the past and giving a hearty hello to the future. America ' ' ' ' ' Here they come! LILLIAN BISHOP. 53 CLUBS SILVER SCREEN CLUB The Silver Screen Club, sponsored by Miss Shriver for a group of girls interested in motion pictures, meets every Wednesday in room 327. The girls learn how to operate motion picture projectors and offer their services whenever needed to teachers who might be using the projectors for demonstration purposes. Since they are inter' ested in all branches of visual education, they also make some of our very beautiful posters. However, all of their time is not spent in making posters and operating the prof jector. These girls often go on very interesting visits to places wherein they may gain additional information pertaining to the things in which they are interested. Among the many places that they have visited are Girard College, The Ledger Building, The Inquirer Building, and some broadcasting studios. BASKETBALL CLUB The basketball games that we have been having in school are played by the mem' bers of the Basketball Club. This club is sponsored by Miss Bowers and meets every Thursday in the gym. The girls have loads of fun playing against the other teams in the club. This term the seniors won every game but the last, so they lost the cham- pionship. VOLLEYBALL CLUB This club is one of the many which are a part of the Athletic Association. After a very nice season, the seniors came out victorious in the games this term. The girls play other members in different grades to determine the champions. BOOKLOVERS The Booklovers Club is sponsored by Miss Howell, and has its meetings in room 120. The members of the club pay fifteen cents each term for the privilege of reading the newest and best books available. The money is used for the purchase of new books. FRENCH CLUB Our French students find much enjoyment in the French Club meetings. During the meetings the girls speak French and try to increase their knowledge of that sub' ject. The club is sponsored by Mrs. Raska and meets on Wednesdays in room 123. TENNIS CLUB The Tennis Club is another part of the Athletic Association which caters to girls interested in that sport. It meets in the gym on Mondays and is sponsored by Miss Price. DILETTANTES This club aims to teach its members worthy use of leisure time. The members enjoy things pertaining to the arts. Mrs. Gosin, their sponsor, takes them on trips to various museums, to lectures, and to stage plays. LEADERS' CLUB The Leaders' Club is most assuredly a club we couldn't do without at William Penn. Whenever there is any work to be done, you'll ind the leaders on hand. Be' sides assisting the teachers with sophomore classes and demonstrating apparatus aims in higher classes, they help in the Spring Meet and Exhibition practice and they are sponf sored by Miss Bowers. The club aims to teach its members sportsmanship, cooperation, and responsibility. SPANISH CLUB The Spanish Club, sponsored by Miss Johnson, meets every Friday in room 122. During the meetings the girls practice using Spanish and learn many songs in that 54 ECLUBQ fit 2. 1 f'-49 , Q g m 4 1 G I Xf'K'1Q,7 YW . 1 I , J -l x W- 5 7 6 .lv X 'q Ch..-A Cm, - HIWCLQP- V mv-j01 'lT'W2 f.iQ Cgc- WS -sf l lf N ..L1JffflL marar, Ciub N K P 5?

They receive a newspaper written for students of Spanish, which is called El Eco. Our school is a member of the InterfHigh School Spanish Club, and it is the only school in Philadelphia to have applied for and been granted a charter in the Pan' American League for Students. STUDENTS' AID CLUB The Students' Aid Club tries to develop a spirit of interested fellowship among the students. Especially when they are absent and lonesome, they are reminded that the girls at school miss them. Letters are sent each week by group scouts. Sometimes lessons are sent to those who are well enough, so that they may keep up with work. The club is sponsored by Miss Berger. At Christmas time the girls make scrapfbooks and other things to send to less fortunate children in homes and hospitals. PLANT LOVERS This club, as its name suggests, takes care of plants in various parts of the build' ing. The members learn to grow plants from seeds and slips, to transplant and repot, to give daily care to potted house plants, and to protect them from insect pests. LIBRARY CLUB The Library Club, under the leadership of Miss Baron, meets every other Wednesf day in room 225. Book discussion groups aim to further reading of worthwhile books and interest girls in reading as a life habit for both knowledge and pleasure. The mem- bers try to make the library a pleasant and interesting place for all. The library conf tains books for every girl regardless of tastes. The library aids give up as many periods a week as they wish, and some even work after school. There are 150 girls in school who aid in the library. The work is purely voluntary, and girls come back term after term to do their part. The girls are given library awards for four and eight terms of service. RETAIL SELLING CLUB This club was founded by Mrs. Glazer in November of 1938 and meets on the second Thursday of each month in room 104. The purpose of the club is to buy fix' tures so as to furnish the room as nearly like a store as possible. As yet the club is young, but Mrs. Glazer hopes to bring in many speakers from prominent stores in the city and to take the girls on trips through these Stores. SCCIAL WORKERS These girls are always on the job. Every time a girl with a tempting tray of candy passes along the hall with a trail of Pennites following behind with pennies, you can be sure she's a Social Worker. This year the club gave out fifteen baskets of food at Christmas. Now they are making woolly Santa Claus dolls for next Christmas. The club is sponsored by Mrs. Walker and meets every other Wednesday. CHORAL CLUB Every year girls flock to the double doors of room 100 and sign up for Vocal Ensemble. Each year the girls work on songs for the Spring Festival and sing for the assembly. At Christmas time, dressed as angels, the girls go caroling through the halls. Led by Miss Regan, Vocal Ensemble has been noted for its splendid singing. ART CLUB This club has been in existence for a good many years. Every year something interesting is planned for the girls. They take expeditions to the park and study nature. They helped the Easter Bunny this year and dyed eggs with wax and bright colors. The club is sponsored by Miss Kairer. 56 It was on a bright day in September C L A S That we started our career. It's a day that we'll always remember, And a day that we all hold dear. Our freshmen days were pretty long, They lasted from ten to four, And when we heard the dismissal gong, There was one mad rush for the door. We were only dumb little freshies then, Who didn't understand That the S. A. started at William Penn And then spread through all the land. Then came our first installation, And oh we felt so proud As we sang our own dear school song Loyally, gratefully, loud. We were really a part of William Penn. We began to see the light, And we found our work wasn't diilicult when We decided to play the game right. Of course it meant study, and staying in nights, And missing a movie or two. But, then, even study has its delights When your heart's in the work that you do. Then Christmas time came, the best time of the year, With apples, toys, and candy galore. The whole school was filled with an air of good cheer, And a holly wreath hung on the office door. Before we knew it, the first term was past, The second came hurrying on, We belonged to the upper school at last, Our tenfto'four days were gone. And after that, the days just flew, And spring had come to stay. And we found something wonderfully new At William Penn each day. What was all that cheering for? The track meet had begun. The teams had marched out on the floor, Oh, golly-gee, what fun! Of course we were excited. But, then, who wouldn't be? And we all anticipated That victory we would see. 57 O CL O AS E M And then when we were Sophies, Our work went on the same, While clubs and other activities Our wholefhearted interest did claim. We learned about the Senate and Court, Their benefits and opportunities. We had S. A. and Onas to support, They were our responsibilities. Then, oh then, we were juniors, And we felt so high and mighty. We thought that we were superior To those Frosh and Sophs so flighty. We were very fortunate indeed When our sponsor, it was said, Would be Mrs. Walker to guide and lead. We got one who is tops to be our head. We took up our duties as volunteers, It was our Hrst big project We had then been Pennites for over two years. To serve our school was our object. And we, as juniors, did our best To keep our records clean and white. We did our best to inspire the rest With a sense of justice and right. We're Seniors now. Oh, sure, we're glad For commencement we've waited four years. But we can't help feeling sort of sad, As we firmly resolve to shed no tears. We've made lots of swell, grand, loyal friends That it hurts a lot to lose, And when we think, that in june, all this ends, Well, who wouldn't get the blues? We worked so hard on It's a Ming, It ran off as smooth as clover, But good, hard work was the only thing That really made it go over. Oh, yes, it's hard to break away- And graduation's drawing nigh It will be awfully hard to say To William Penn-Goodbye. MAE MAIS 58 Our ear pulls up the drive, and we sit lot' a hrief moment and permit tlelieions shivers of excitement to open homhardment in the vicinlty ol' our spine. The ear Lloor opens anal as we alight we find a hveried eloorfman ready to aid us. We ascend the steps on the arms ul our escorts and secretly admire the swish of our gowns as we walk. Through the hroatl doors a gay panorama greets us. Varifcolored gowns present sharp contrast to the severe hlack and white masculine attire.

Although it was late and many suspicious looking characters were lurking in dark corners, I was unafraid. I had come on an important mission, and I was encourf aged by the fact that I had almost reached my destination. H Many years before, I had saved the life of a certain Hindu magician, the Yogi Ali Booba. He vowed that some day he would return the favor. Now I was about to give him an opportunity to make good that promise. I turned into one more street, and at last I found myself standing in front of Yogi Ali Booba's house. The Yogi was very glad to see me, and after having some refreshments, I began to tell him why I had come. I wanted him to tell me what the future would hold for the june class of 1939 of the William Penn High School. He studied me gravely for several minutes. I watched him eagerly as he rose. He walked to the door and beckoned to me as he uttered those words, Your wish is my command. Silently he conducted me through a secret passage. At the end of the passage was a small door. When he opened the door, I was overcome by the sublime beauty of the sight I beheld. The walls of the room were inlaid with all kinds of precious stones that glittered forth in all their radiance. just then I noticed an object that resembled a broom lying on a velvet cushion in the middle of the floor. This, said the Yogi, is the greatest invention of all time. It will enable us to penetrate as far as ten years into the future. The Yogi then informed me that we would have to drink a magic potion before we could start our journey, so as to render us invisible. I gulped down the last drop of that sweet liquid and then settled myself comfortably on the Bounding Broomstick. At that moment I had a very dizzy sensation. just as I came to my senses again, we were off. We flew along in the darkness for what seemed like hours. As the sun rose, I realized that we were flying over the ocean. just then I heard the whirring motors of an airplane, a large transatlantic fiying boat had come into view. As the plane passed us, I noticed that the three air hostesses looked quite familiar. They were none other than Paula Lloyd, Ethel Still, and Mollie Aronson. When the plane disappeared over the horizon, we awoke to the fact that we were nearing land. When we reached the shore, we noticed a sign on the beach that informed us that we had just arrived on the Lapland Islands. The Lapland Islands consisted of two small islands, Steno and Cashbook. Since we were already on Steno Island we decided to explore it first. We discovered that this island had quite a large and thriving population, and, although these businesslike people spoke English, they all wrote in a strange language called shorthand. Among all these people we noticed many faces that were well known to us. They were Josephine Basciano, Roslyn Bomze, Vertel Asher, Mildred Cooper, Helen Douris, Dorothy Gimple, Diana Giores, Frances Goldsmith, Lillian Hornstein, and Bernice Farthing. We also recognized Fanny Lieber' man, Jessie Kovnat, Celestine Stout, Rosalia Kolodzieg, Sylvia Johns, and Elaine Rob- 62 .CLASS PROPHECY inson. As we left these old friends we were attracted by a little school house. The Laplanders were always glad to have an opportunity to advance their education. As we entered the school we noticed that the principal was Mary Bickel. We further noted that the staff of teachers included the names of Eugenie Carr, Elsie Davis, Dorothy Hammond, Katherine Hayes, Margaret Smith, Goldie Washington, and Odessa West. As we were very anxious to watch the students, we left Principal Bickel and went to visit the classrooms. The pupils were very industrious workers. Among them we saw Anna Macauley, Lucien Nazaretyan, Anna Lowasky, Helen Rukas, Ruby Appling, Betty Rosenweig, Helen Resh, Shirley Rosken, Helen Smith, Irene Shefsky, and Elsie Thomas. As we left the school, we almost bumped into Josephine Stemple and Esther Stark. At last the Yogi and I decided to leave Steno Island. In our last glimpse of the place we saw Mildred Strulowitch and Frances Speilf berg together with Mary Nicora and Anna Mackles. Then, with a tremendous burst of energy, the Bounding Broomstick flew across the bay and we sighted on Cashbook Island. We had no time to waste so we com' mcnced to explore this island immediately. We found Cashbook Island to be equally as fascinating as Steno Island. The people of Cashbook Island were called Book' keepers. As we travelled around, we were surprised to find that we were acquainted with a large portion of the population. Having turned into a large busy street, we knew at once that we were in the business section of the island. Off in a corner of the market we heard the loud chatter of women's voices. When we investigated the cause of the noise, we discovered that a gigantic sale of T-accounts was being held. We observed these happy buyers with much amusement as they shoved one another about. In this mob, we distinguished the faces of Frances Altman, Jane Babel, Flor- ence Bishop, Anna Demp, Minnie Friedenberg, Rita Groder, Florence Nerlinger, Jean Mackey, and Dorothy Simmons. We left this crowd of excited bargain hunters and were about to leave Cashbook Island when we saw Jennie Feschuck, Katherine Zin, Claudia Young, Betty Wilcox, Mildred Timmerman, Rhea West, Marian Weiss, and julia Vacca. At length, we finally said goodfbye to the Lapland Islands and were on our way once more. We sailed along quite smoothly when suddenly the broom pointed downward and we landed. We knew at once that we were in a large city because there were skyscrapers all around us. We happened to land on the tallest building, so we decided to tour it at once from the roof to the basement. Quietly we entered one of the offices, that of a very prominent politician. The politician and his assistants, Miriam Dedov and Dorothy Marshall, all were very busy so we cut short our visit and went to another office. This office happened to be a part of a very large concern. It was owned by Davis, Davis, Davis, Inc. These men were the uncles of Bette Davis, and Bette was the vicefpresident of the company. Also working in the same company as comptometer operators were Audrey Edwards, Dorothy Greene, and Mary Heath. As we passed through the filing department, we saw Theodora Gyza, Addie Fortson, and Mollie 63 CLASS PRCDPI-IECY Weinstein employed as file clerks. The forelady of this department was Adele Portnoy. 'We then left the Davis Company' and entered another nearby door. This door led to a very large and prosperous repair company. The handsome head of this concern was the husband of Esther Cooper. We peeped into the financial department of the company, and there we saw Gladys Dreisbach at work as the head treasurer. Her ardent assistants were Freda Rubin, Ethel Rutley, Martha Schiff, and Cornelia Howard. As we were leaving the repair company, we saw Fannie Rothbard and Lillian Ahrens busily typing statements to send to their various customers. The next place of business we visited turned out to be the headquarters of all of the social service workers in the city. It was quite surprising to see how many of our old friends were social service workers. We saw Mildred Burroughs, Sarah Abrams, Juanita Ross, Vernon Andrews, Geraldine Nathan, Beatrice Jacoby, Josephine Hines, and Alice Silver. Vera Smith was seen giving final instructions to a new corps of social workers. We left Vera and her crew and went into the office of a steamship ticket agency. There, we noticed that Kathryn Siegel purchased a ticket for Japan. Alma Toupe was inquiring about the price of a trip around the world. Anna Walish and her husband had just gotten tickets for their honeymoon in Europe. Ida Sambit, Marion Sims, Mary Linder, Ruth Mertz, Rebecca Mickens, and Vivien Gold also came in to buy tickets for various parts of the world. We had now descended to the ground floor of the building. This floor was occupied by a bank. Many distinguishedflooking people were going in and out of the bank. Among them were Sylvia Paltenstein, Grace Lattimore, and Dorothy Fitzpatrick, who had come in to cash large checks. Suddenly a shot was heard. We realized that a bank robbery was being attempted. Another shot rang out and we saw one of the bank clerks sink to the floor. The masked thief had escaped with the money. However, the thief did not remain free long. The efficient police inspector, Torchy Connor, and her helper, Marion Cochetti, caught up with him, and hustled the villain to jail. The bank was a scene of bedlam. Two undertakers, Patricia Benson and Jessie Govan, rushed to the scene of the crime. They did not get any business, however, because the clerk who was shot had only a slight wound. Reporters swarmed around everyone and everything in their efforts to get a story. Some of the reporters were Mae Mais, Gladys Browne, Ruth Pazar, Thelma Powell, and Lillian Alcoff. Many photographers were also there. Among them were seen Elizabeth Ramie, Ruth Orrel, Helen Berger, Julia Williams and Erma Wilson. The bank became very stuffy, so off we flew to the court house, where they were holding a trial for the thief. Imagine our surprise to find Doris Carter presiding as judge. The prosecuting attorney was none other than Myrna Galant. In the jury we found Frances Rathkelis, Willie Young, Lillian Cohen, Rose McLaughlin, Georgia Dockins, Anna Allenberg, Jean Fink, Gertrude Rudick, Anna Stein, Sarah Smith and Ruth Bevans. The trial was soon over and Myrna had another triumph to add to her career. 64 CLASS PROPHECY We became very anxious as to the condition of the clerk so we went to visit him in the hospital. He was greatly improved, and he received tender care from the hospital attendants. When the nurse came in to take his temperature, we knew at once that she was Doris Baker. By further observation we found that a large number of former Pennites had gone in for nursing. We saw many old classmates such as Anna Berkuta, Josephine Holmes, Elizabeth Lees, Nanny jordan, Ethel Franklin, Adele Giliotti, and Kathleen Gilchrist, Other girls who offered their services to aid the sick were Edna Griffin, Esther Harrell, Anna Herbert, Margaret Mae, Gertrude Missouri, and Myrtle Morton. We also saw Odel Taylor, Callie Carr, Angela Cianfrani, and Marjorie Denner, Ruth Dever, and Madeline Booker. We left the nurses and went into the chemical lab Leah Cohen and Helen Gibbs were perfecting a new medicine. They were aided by jennie Homer and Peggy Wentzell. We finally decided to leave the hospital and we were on our way once again. At that moment we saw Amy Baily and Rose Kaufman, who were now teachers, go into a department store. We went into the store after them and watched them as they spoke to Marie Wick, the buyer of the store. We left them in order to wander about the store and we soon found ourselves in the hat department. Even in the department store we found people that we knew. In the hat department we saw Frances Barcello and Sylvia Mendelson acting as salesgirls. In the dress section we encountered Frances Schairer, Florence Grossman, Eleanor Bejster, Helen Fedak, and julia Waskiewiez. Also working in the dress department as mannequins were Mary Valancus, Sophie Vollweiler, and Lillian Valys. Next to the dress department was located the book department. In this section, three great authors were giving their autographs. They were Lillian Bishop, Beatrice Golden, and Josephine Oleksinsky. In private, Lillian is the wife of the president of the Brown E? Bailey Box Company. Before leaving the store, we passed through the cosmetic department, and there was Margaret Chambers demonstrating with the aid of Viola Wood. Upon leaving the store, we saw Dorothy Barlow, the new Miss America, enter a beauty salon. In the beauty salon we also met many girls that formerly attended the William Penn High School. They were Hattie Denard, Louise Alexander, Myrtle Bowman, Etta Allen, josephine Anthony, and Dorothy Sharp. Edna Gammon and Daisy Gripper were giving a permanent wave to Evelyn Goldblum, the wife of a famous artist. Beatrice Nesbit, a doctor's wife, was having her nails manicured by Adele Weinberg. Kathleen Williams was giving Sylvia Schoenfox, the dressmaker, a facial. Olga Falatovich then asked Nellie Skrupski, a millionaire's wife, to go with her to the technicians' convention. They paid Mary Reid, the clerk, and then went on their way. We went with them. When we arrived at the convention, we saw such familiar faces as Elaine Waronker, Esther Wentzel, and Betty Hornibrook. Goldie Elving, a society woman, Lillian Elkins, a college student, and Florence Jacob, a wealthy career woman, were 65 CLASS PROP!-IECY also there. Olga Herman was the guest speaker. Her topic dealt with tending the store of your parents. When the meeting was over, Conny Herman, the chairman, adjourned it. The Yogi and I were trying to decide what to visit next, when we suddenly noticed a lovely woman with the most beautiful figure enter an exclusive gymnasium. As the gymnasium was so close we went in. This is where we received our biggest shock. The woman whom we saw a few minutes before was Claire Skloff, the owner of the gymnasium. Her equally lovely assistant was Rose Skorupsky. A few of Claire's patrons were Virginia Woodard, the composer, Victoria Wortkowski, the Presidents private secretary, Mary Weklyn, the actress, Dorothy Ferrell, a happy housewife, and Anna Hopkins, a dentist's assistant. Claire discovered the formula of keeping slim. By following her special exercises and a definite menu, Claire guaranteed a perfect figure. The menu was planned by Claire's special staff of dietitians. They were Thelma Wise, Carrie Thomas, Vernice Cobb, Abbie Currier, and Florence Battiste. However, this exercising was tiring us out so off we went to the theatre. We arrived just in the nick of time, because the master of ceremonies had just come on the stage. She was Marion Harriott. Marion then introduced to the audience those two celebrated comediennes, Gertrude Klein and Rosalie Britton. Gertrude and Rosalie had the audience rolling in the aisles. Lottie Hirshberg, Bella Klaman, Evelyn Galman, Anne Goldenberg, Pearl Bedner, and their respective husf bands were some of the people who were rolling. Then Marion announced that Mildred Schnitzer, the Queen of Swing, would dance. She was accompanied by the singing of Helen Welsh, Dora Ward, and Mae Stella. After the musical treat, Margaret Dutchman, the adventuress, and Evelyn Paul, the hermit, spoke to the audience. Bella Lieberman also spoke about finding hobbies. Janet Barol and Bernice Blackman, the actresses, then presented a sketch that everyone enjoyed. The program was concluded by the lovely strains of Gladys Bilker's piano playing. Then, off we went to the Capital, where Pole Corter's new show, Don't Leave It To Me, was the current attraction. The star was Lilly Krowitz. In the chorus we saw such glamorous beauties as Myrtle Magid, Elizabeth Rogachenka, Leona Sulik, Ruth Benson, Edna Botwin, Catherine Berndee, Sylvia Kligman, Dorothy Schmitt, Anna Schmukler, Virginia Taylor, and Emma Thomas. The Yogi then told me that we would have to return to Algiers. The last thing we saw before we left was Dorothy Hamberger and Regina Bartkowski in a doorftofdoor canvass of their art goods. Then with a zoom, we soared through space. Before we knew it, we were back in the diamond room in Algiers. I thanked the Yogi and went on my way. I never could determine whether I really experienced these things or merely dreamed them, so I'll leave it to the readers to decide for me. Sincerely your prophet, RosAL1E ANN BRITTON. 66 1 .lflwvuv I VL . 77' f-:1 1 ' 7' Es WASHINGTON TRIP Oh, you look swell! That hat sure is spiffy! Where do you think the other girls are? Where are the chaperones? Why isn't Olivette here? Is that Mr. Gormley? All these questions and many more came popping up from every direction. The hubbub was soon over, for Mr. Gormley, our guide throughout the trip, led us to our train, and what a walk it was. For a short while everyone kept her place, but we soon became restless. Singing here and there could be heard. Crackling of paper and opening of bags got us ready to snatch a bite. Look, girls! pointed out Mr. Gormley. The Mason and Dixon Line. Im' mediately heads swayed, but disappointedly saw nothing but a stone. After three hours of traveling we arrived in the spacious Union Station, only to find part of it roped off for the arrival of the President of Nicaragua and his party. While awaiting him we lunched at the Savarin Restaurant. Returning to the train shed we were thrilled at the gayly uniformed marine, naval, and military squads. This in itself was a sight worth seeing. All too soon we had to scramble for good seats in the buses that awaited us. Oh girls, have you seen those two girls? I can't find them, spoke Mrs. Walker in a quivering voice. While she hovered about looking for them, we listened to the 21' gun salute in honor of the president. Then we proceeded on our tour. No one who wasn't alert could grasp the many sights that were shown. Our heads kept swaying to and fro, as our guides said, On your left is this, and on your right is that. The red brick home with the balcony on your left is the home and deathplace of Lincoln. So it continued for an hour. After passing one of the most beautiful zoological gardens, we arrived at the National Episcopal Cathedral. When completed, this cathedral will form a cross. Sighs of Oh and Ah were heard on entering. The carvings and stained glass windows were exquisite. It was in this building that we paused before the tomb of Woodrow Wilson. XVhile we were sitting in one of the chapels, our two lost mem' bers arrived. Next we headed for Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. We passed over the longest concrete bridge in the world, which is called the Taft. The saddest part of our trip was on entering the cemetery. There stood thousands upon thousands of white gravestones in perfect file. On the grounds we visited a charming colonial home once owned by Robert E. Lee. From there we continued to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier of the World War, where we were fortunate enough to see the changing of the guard. This sight was very impressive. The ride from there to Mount Vernon was glorious. We passed through Alex- andria, where interesting things were pointed out to us. On arriving at Mt. Vernon pupils from other schools hailed us, informing us that President Roosevelt and his party were there. We ran as if for our lives. It seemed as if pushing into the best places was our aim. Shouts of Sylvia, come over here! and Florence, don't push 68 WASHINGTON TRIP me so! could be heard throughout the park. Yes, there he was, seated in his open car while the cameras clicked from all angles. After the crowd had subsided we took our places on the smooth green grass for our own group picture. On our way back to the hotel we stopped at the Lincoln Memorial. Sighs of Steps again could be heard throughout the party. On seeing the large statue of Lincoln one of our younger l2A's remarked, Oooh, girls, Lincoln must have been an enormous man. Wearily we dragged ourselves to the buses to be taken to our hotel. Mommy, we have a suite of rooms, don't we? Do you have a tile bath also, Min? Bushrod is going to sleep on the cot, I say! These were the frequent remarks we heard. All too soon it was time to dress for dinner. The dining room was large and airy. It didn't take long for us to sit down and finish the meal, and what appetites Washington did give us! However, there was no rest for the weary, for we were soon marshalled into our buses and headed for the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. We saw stacks of paper money, but they were so busy they wouldn't even give us ONE sample, so there was nothing left but to journey on to the Congressional Library. This place was really too beautiful to describe. It was breathtaking to glance down on the main reading room from the balcony. And girls, guess what! Did your guide whisper the prophecy that an exclusive wedding will take place on May 5, 1940, on the library steps? Don't blush, M. A. Presto! and we were in our hotel rooms. The girls rushed to show off their silk pajamas and satin housecoats. Each girl seemed to get ready for a date instead of for bed. Girls rushed from room to room and midnight feasts began. Oh such eats! F. J. even brought delicious punch. Suddenly we heard one of our chaperones. All the girls fled to their rooms, but kept on talking till the wee hours of the morning. Too soon we heard Good morning. Seven o'clock. Immediately after break- fast we boarded our buses to go to the Capitol, where various guides took us through the building. Because it was Saturday Congress was not in session. The Shake' spearian Library thrilled many of us, and again we held our breath in ascending the Washington Monument. The outside of the Pan American Building was beautiful, but the inside was gorgeous. When we left this building we walked to the beautiful Corcoran Gallery of Art, where we saw impressive statues. Then we returned to our hotel to pack our possessions and have our lunch. We soon bade farewell and continued to the National History Building. Our last visit in Washington was to the Smithsonian Institute, where we saw many interesting sights. From there we continued to the station, boarding the train for Philly. Although we were very fatigued, we rallied in the airfconditioned diner. It was queer that so many lacked energy and that sleeping became the order of the day! Oh, yes? Before arriving at Broad Street Station we gave our grand chaperones and, of course ourselves, some good cheers. We hope in the near future to have a reunion . h . . . 1 trip and ope all will join MINNIE FRIEDENBERG. 69 STCDTT STLIDICD QE PCDPTRAITS 3211 WOODLAND AVENUE PI-IILADELPHIA, PA.
