Music Hall and watched the Watch Your Step program as it was broadcast. We had our school song recorded. Wo also visited the New York City Aquarium and wc took a trip to the Statue of Liberty. Mr. and Mrs. Lilly and Miss Harter were the c aporons. We all enjoyed this trip although we had to pay one dollar for four bottles of Coco Cola and lost many pounds in avoirdupois. We wish to thank Miss Harter for her excellent support to the Senior Class, Mr. Lilly, who helped us to attain our start for the future, and the faculty for their assistance with our probolcms in various subjects. We also thank the members of the School Board for making our -education possible. Our thanks are extended to Miss Conklin and Miss Beirne, our former class advisors.
