the sky was the limit un the cats because of tho vict-ry ovor Ste Joseph's who
had becn undefeaved bet'cre our game. Snelly, idcSpadden, Short, Elli:tt, Fitz-

and were looking in the window when the night watchman come out to investigate -

the first Supreme Court chamber, the room where the Declaration of Independence
was signed, etc,e The watchman was really swell and showed us all around the
building. He then told us how to reach Betsy Ross's home. We took this in and
then went down to the piers; took a _ subway back to tho hotel, and went to bed

Bill Forsyth: "Sunday, Dec. 27. New York, The station was very
crowded. ie shoved and pushed with all our bags and finally mnnaged to get up és
the street where we all took a street car, taking it over just as we did the bus.
We went up 42nd street to Times Square, turned into it and went on down near
Madison Square Garden and then walked over to the Hotel Belevedere which is dir-
ectly south of the Garden where we are stayinge All the street lights are
blacked out, The stop and go signs have only a little light shining out of them,
It is often hard to see it. The cars have their lights dimmed way down lew. In-
stead of the New York City with all its lights, it seems as if it was Medicine
Lodge, Kansas, at 3 o'clook in the morning, except the ppgpse are running around
pushing and shoving, just like ants."

Max Kissell; "Thursday, Dec. 24. Detroit. Jack ond I ate dinner down
in the coffee shup cf the hotel and then started sut without anything in partic-
ular in mind, After walking around town for a while we erme upen a spot which
said 'Catch bus here for Canada'. We decided to go sver so we caught the next
bus through the Windsor tunnel under the Detroit River to windsor. Caneda. We
had iio trceuble getting through the custom offisials sn we started cur way down
the main street of i/indsor., There were hardly any lights on the main street, or
any place else in this town, We stripped in several drug stzres and curio shceps
for scuvenirs and finally settled down in a small cafe to write some portcards,.
There were quite a few little French girls who were cute as heck, Thoy gota
big kick out of Jack's southern accent und especially his height."

these boys because you will sure get the old hot-foo0t. As Kissell puts it - it
