I was very impressed by the Empire State Building with its breathtaking view from the top. "The beautiful Cathedral of St. John the Divine, the largest cathedral in North America, left me speechless and amazed. "I enjoyed the 2 plays Be- yond the Fringe and Oliver. "The department stores are a shopper'a paradise and prices are surprisingly reasonable, a "These were the five short- est days I have ever spent. You need at least two weeks in New York to see everything. I hope that someday in the near future I will be able to return to fabulous New York City."

New York's 'fabulous' JIM CARSCADDEN (124): "I hardly knew where to be- gin but the first thing, that start- led me and left me marvelling was the immensity of the build- ings. The only comparison to these lopildings would be the apartment buildings now rising in London and even they are small compared to those in downtown Manhattan. The sun strikes only at high noon in the Wall Street area. "All our tours and arranged visits were well worth our time and money. The chance to visit Radio City Music Hall, the sa- trical skits in Beyond the Fringe and especially the Broadway musical Oliver gave us insight into acting as well as enjoyment. The bus trip and yacht trip gave us a picture of Manhattan. The Easter church service at the Cathedral of St, John the Divine by the Bishop of New York was truly Im- pressive. The tour of the Unit- ed Nations brought our trip to a perfect finish. "We had free time to visit places of our own choice. Every night there was a party in some- one's hotel room and we got little sleep. The trip was a big success and enjoyed by all. If you ever have a chance to go, I would heartily recommend that you do see New York yourself." SUSAN DINNEY (12A): "I just love New york and had a fabulous time. I loved everything but the prices. I would advise everyone to take the guided bus tour around the city since it gives you a quick glimpse of the city in four hours. The bus took us down Broadway to Greenwich Village, the Coffeehouse District, which wasn't all it was cracked up to be. The Bowery or "Skid Row" really shocked me when I actually saw people sleeping on the streets. These people drink anything from kerosene to wood alcohol. "A Chinese telephone booth opposite an American one in- dicated we were entering China- town. We got out and were able to buy souvenirs here. "We stopped at New York harbour and looked out over the bay at the Statue of Liberty and several islands with Brook- lyn in the background. "Central Park contains everything from a Shakespear- ean theatre and night clubs to Lover's Lane. Most of the build- ings reflected of Victorian ar- chitecture and were inhabited by such names as Judy Gar- land, Mitch Miller and Paul Newman. Next to this section was the Little San Juan Area inhabited by Puerto Ricans. This slum area was the actual setting for the academy award winner, 'West Side Story.' "We saw Grant's tomb. We got an upper view of Harlem and were told we could visit here at our own risk. Here live Ne- groes and one can see poverty in its worst state. "Most people on Fifth Avenue are wealthy American aristo- crats. I've never seen so many well-dressed dogs in my life. Every other car is a Rolls Royce and every other coat is mink, Homes take up the better part of a block and look more like hotels. Elizabeth Taylor's home occupies the top two floors of one of the better hotels in this district. "I had a wonderful time and hope I can return someday."
