Seventh pade
enjoys trip
to Biltmore
(By Judy Hembree)
On Saturday, April 27 at
approximately 7:30 p.m., two
double-deck Greyhound buses
loaded with 100 excited 7th
grade pupils from Newberry
Junior high school began a
trip that proved to be most
enjoyable for all of them.
Their destination was Biltmore
Estate near Asheville, N. C.
This beautiful estate served
as a summer home for George
W. Vanderbilt. It covered
125,000 acres of farms, woods
and forested mountains. Mr.
Vanderbilt traveled through
Europe, choosing historic treas
ures for the 250 rooms of the
huge mansion of the French
Renaissance period. As the
years passed, the estate was
reduced to 11,000 acres and is
now owned and operated by the
Cecils.
Upon entering the estate,
the pupils had lunch at a pic
nic spot near the barns of the
Biltmore Dairy Farm, whose
products are sold in North and
South Carolina. After leaving
the picnic area, the buses roll
ed up the three-mile approach
road, through pine, hemlock,
dogwood, rhododendrons and
mountain laurel. The Biltmore
House was also toured by the
7th graders. Among the many
things of interest inside were
Napoleon Bonaparte’s chess
set, Julius Caesar’s marble
bathtub, the Twelve Apostles
statues of white porcelain, the
Grand Staircase which sur
rounds a beautiful chandelier,
and many other paintings, tap
estries and historic valuables.
The cultured grounds includ
ed the Italian Garden, featur
ing many types of flowering
shrubs and trees; and Walled
Garden, containing daffodils,
tulips, iris and other flowers;
the Rose Garden and the Aza
lea Garden.
After a light supper, the
students bought souvenirs and
then returned to Newberry at
7:00 p.m.. They felt their trip
to Biltmore Estate was most
enjoyable.
The plan for the trip was
that of Mrs. Claudia Golden,
social studies teacher, but the
students earned the money to
pay for transportation.
The chaperones were Mr. and
Mrs. Ronald Alexander, Mr.
and Mrs. Larry Senn, Mrs.
Claudia Golden and Mrs. Alice
