Most likely that first part of the trip was the most enchanting and alluring to all of us.l The individuals in charge of the boat were: President ....................,.............. WARREN PEIFFER Viee-President ............................. HELEN HETTINGER Secretary ............................ A ...... HELENE MACLEOD -MR. ScHoFFsTALL Treasurer .......... ....................... After sailing for sometime at sea-our usual state of mind-we realized we were near Port Sophomore where we would have to anchor in order to increase our provisions of knowledge and learning. Upon landing we felt it would only be fitting to advance ourselves and take a steamship. Thus we steamed out of bay with much ' ' f . The cap- pep, vim, and vigor to conduct us through the second lap 0 our voyage tains and crew on our steamship were: ' President ..................... CLYDE RIENGEL, ISABEL FEGLEY -GRACE ECKERT HELENE MACLEOD Vice-President ................................ Secretary ..,............................. -- Treasurer ................... - ........... MILDRED ROTHERMEL Our journey by steamship had to end sometime so when we arrived at Port Junior we advanced by rail. Many interesting events happened as we wen't winding along our way. Probably the most interesting of these was the selection of class rings with the numerals '3l. This journey by rail connected with loads of jollity and fun ended much too soon. The engineer and assistants were: President ............................... MILDRED ROTHERMEL Vice-Presidenz ................................ GEORGE MoYER Secretary .,....,........................... RUTH E1sENHowER -ANNA SCHAEFFER Treasurer ............... --- -- .... ----- Upon arriving at Port Senior our cheery countenances became more grave for we adopted the progressive and more serious step of aviation as a means to end our journey. Since we undertook this step, we had to remain busy to keep pace with this modern progress but we still mixed cheerfulness with seriousness. We are about to end our adventure with this pilot and his assistants: President ,,--.,,..,..,...................... ROBERT RITZMAN Vice-President ................................

I can only say: Fellow classmates, we are leaving For a life that is strange and new. Let us do what our teachers have taught us . And steer a course that is true.

ff If 1 rpff xx '-- -tr xx! 14 ax, ,A of ljff- Prophecy LL board! Everyone is hustling and bustling as the S, S. Wilson slowly finds her way out of New York harbor on the first leg of a cruise around the world. Under the able hand of Captain Woodfield, the master of the Wilson, we finally ride upon the high seas. We're off. All the guests aboard our liner are cordially greeted by Miss Ruth Eisenhower, the ship's hostess. She is one of the outstanding figures in her profession. She in- vites us into the salon-where we lounge and listen to the ship's orchestra led by John Wiegner. After listening to a few numbers we stroll out on deck. Land ho! Now We're Steaming into Vladivostok, Russia. While here, let's visit the Imperial Theatre and hear a piano recital by that celebrated American ar- tist, Evelyn Berkenstock. She certainly does play well. Now we're on board again and making for the port of Paris, France. Plenty of excitement prevails as we dock in Paris. Upon strolling up the Rue de Vogue we see the apparel shop of Violet Mengel who carries the latest Parisian styles. Entering the Hotel Manger we are greeted by modern dance music. Why of all things! There is Robert Feyl leading a large orchestra composed of young Americans. This is certainly a coincidence! We then cross the English Channel and make a brief tour of London. While here we visit St. James Court, where two young society debutantes, Misses Mildred Rothermel and Grace Eckert are being presented to King George and Queen lvlary. Our next objective is Berlin, Germany. Upon arriving here We look up Oscar Sweitzer who has his engineering offices in the business section of this city. Yes, he still blushes the way he did back in '3l. Oscar is performing some astounding en- gineering feats at present in Germany. We now change our course 'and soon we are in warm southern waters! We make a short stop atiSidney, Australia, and Whom ,should we see but Kermit Staudt. He operates a commercial flying field here and is doing quite well, too. Then, keeping due north, we stop at Tokyo, Japan for coal. While there we visit the American Embassy and find one of our old classmates, Warren Peiffer, act- ing in the capacity of American Ambassador. We exchange greetings, after which he introduces us to his secretary, none other than Anna Schaeffer. What a reunion we have! . We then travel east and dock at Peking, China. We receive a wonderful ova- tion from a detachment of American Marines, commanded by the insuperable Gen. George A. Moyer. He greets us with, Tell it to the Marines. We certainly are glad to see dear old Amos again. il V lk-X gl ib ff 1 all v . f , iv! , , xx.
