This Day in History: 1934-05-22

The sixth grade class from the Cragmere school spent the day in New York City. Through the influence of Mrs. Louise Albrecht, one of the class mothers, the students were given a tour of the passenger liner “Hamburg”. They spent the afternoon at the Metropolitan Museum of Art where they were guided through the Egyptian Wing and the Armor Room as part of their class studies of mummies and armor. In addition to Mrs. Albrecht, Mrs. Ralph Seberry, Mrs. James Foster, Roy Green and R.N. Wanamaker provided transportation in their cars for the trip. (Bristow)
