Milford Students Recall Trip To Greenfield Village

Milford high school history students went to Detroit recently where tiiv) visited Greenfield Village and the Henn Ford Museum. Making the trip were Arlo Binswanger, Joseph Judkins, Mrs. Robert Kitson, Mrs. Beiswanger and bus driver Jerry Bushong. Fallowing are some of the accounts written by the students following their return: ENJOYED VISIT By Paula Burgett I enjoyed my visit to the Ford museum and to Greenfield Village very much. The two things I liked die most in the museum were the history of baby carriages and the history of pianos. Another thing which impressed me was the size of one tram. Although there was much walking in the village It was interesting It really surprised me when I saw jus: imw our ancestors lived. There was so much contrast between the I rich and the poor. I liked seeing a real windmill. I had no idea that they were so large. I I think the trip was a real success. HENRY FORD MUSEUM By Dale Risk On our tour tho ugh Henry Ford's mustsim we tie largest flywheel ever built. This wheel was mounted in the floor with only one half of it showing above the floor. In one part of the museum there were plan s tbjit had matte historic flight-. x.tir-/ucv su-ix-.-shxi from the roof with cables. others set on the floor. There were twu planes that had been used for expeditions to ’.he north and south poles. . There was ateo the largest steam red radnx»d engine ever built, which had to be pulled into the build ng on railroad tracks txvause of its weight. -j Henry Ford had collected many, old cars and trucks, powered by steam, electric and gasc&ine engines. These were all on display in the

main bu Iding. In the upp.r part <4 the building were Henry Ford s personal effects, his furniture, his awards and other things presented to luni. On this trip we also visited Greenfield Village which is set up just like the towns were years ago. We saw Thomas Edisons and Henry Ford's workshops. set up just like they were when these met) were living. We crossed a covered bridge, visited an old railroad station and passed by a Dutch windmill. We went through a stone house and another log house which was the oldest in the village We saw an old ferry boat that wvis in operati n in the village at one time. But, the two most interesting things in the village to me were the blacksmith shop where you could watch the blacksmith making pony shoes, and in another old building the glassblower was making hand blown vases and other articles. Even though we had to drive a long way to see these things, it was well worth the trip. DETROIT INVASION By Darla Emmons On April 21 the junior class along with a few minors began the long torturing five hour ride to Detroit, Mich. As we struggled through the first four hours, the bus seats became very uncomfortable and hair spray and uncouth yelling smothered the air. Everyone waited four long hours to stand and stretch, and though most of the feet, legs and necks were asleep, the busload managed to crawl into a little half-way restaurant, where half of it's inhabitants left when they saw the bus arrive. Everyone filled his tummy with the very expensive food and his lungs with a so-called breather. After kvking under tables and in rest rooms, the teachers managed to pull their little group together and haul them back to the bus. It was only an hour later when we spied the towering building of Henry Ford museum. Although the place was squirming with unmanagable youth from other towns, we managed to see many historic events and the remains of each. Many of the sights had the same thing in common. They were sfi joined together by that greet little man known as Henry Ford. Hank had a few other ccmpan-

By Chuck Bird I Arriving at the museum about 11 ant Friday morning, I started for the part of the museum that I most enjoyed; the section with all of the mechanical instruments. I observed all of the automobiles, planes, wagons, engine blocks, bicycles, motorcycles and manmouth big trains. I especially enjoyed the motorcycles since I'm a “cycle-nut".

■LJ Tom Says... Clothes Make The Man SHIRT Style and fit should result in a smooth collar line. No breaks or bends. If you have the white shirt habit, break it once in a while. Try some colors — the pale shades of blue, yellow or tan. Try stripes, too. (Vertical stripes look good on hefty people.* If you’re on the large side, long-point collars are probably for you. Slender types tend to look best in wide-spread short-point collars. Shorter people wear regular spreads, tab or long-point collars well. You taller types think about a widespread style. uuuuuuituuuMfc TOM SOCKS Wawaste Village
