...ELADI S. Elizabeth Dalton knows five-suited bridge from A to Z, Nobody else can play the game as expertly as she. Dorothy Hopkins has a job in Nelson Weberls hotel, The place is crowded all the time, they manage it so well. If ever there is any sort of quarrel with the guests, If someone thinks that all's not right, comes to the desk, protest The difference soon is straightened out and all dissension ends, Ruth Osborne,s smile and manner make them everlasting friends. As for the army and the navy, you have no cause for fear, Their organization is complete and their training quite severe, For Admiral Edward Thomas is a first-rank sailing man, And General Richard Yewell makes a cunning, careful plan. Out in the country n-ear Bel Air, among the rolling hills, Mary Ruth Hopkins raises horses whose speed will pay her bills. Under the spreading chestnut tree the village smithy sits, Thereis Harold Kelly, hammering a horseshoe into bits. Or if by any chance we should desire to phone a friend, It's Frances Younger's Number, please? we,d hear at the other And if we wished to call someone across the ocean, too, 51 l end, It would be Elva Mahan who would put the call right through. If hunters try to violate the law, itls all in vain, IL They're always caught and punished by the game warden, Hermon Let's go t-o the circus side show, itfs only five small cents, Here,s Elliott, the barker, with his Step right up here, gentsl And what's the big attraction behind the barker's spiel? lt's Warren Miller, -the strong man, with muscles of stainless steel We see two big-league baseball stars who owe B-el Air some thanks Bugs Grafton and Darrel Cooper now are playing for the Ya William Hildebrand, a preacher, in his church is found, ayne V nksf' And n-ow he gives his faithful flock advice that,s good and sound. And also watching over us with ever-active eye, Is Mason Williams, the forester, who's in a tower high. Hist! Who's that knocking at my door? f'Oh, no, not Barnacle lt's Gus Lochary, the postman, who's bringing magazines still- If anyone desires to learn the art of dancing 'round, He'll go to Elsie Hartley's school, the best that can be found. Should anybody ever need some flowers from any clime, At Ada Warfield's florist shop he'll find them everytime.. Who's in this laboratory full of test tubes, that we near? We find a classmate, Archer Walker, well-known chemist, here. Or should we ever be in need of expert legal aid, Then Harold Ball's our man, we need no longer be afraid. Will all these eat, or will they starve? Oh, there will be no harm, For Wallace Harkins feeds them all from an all-inclusive farm. 57 aiu xy

EL Aolos, I938 , , , lt's played by Mary Strawbridge, we discover at the end. Well, what comes after that? We,ll see, ,lust listen now, my friend- What makes that front-rank man fall down? says Files-on-Parade. A touch 0' sun? no, that's not what the Color-Sergeant said, lt's one of Jimmy Poole's great jokes, the best I've ever heard, And every week I listen, trying not to miss a wordf, Yvhat businessmanls the sponsor of this betterer of Benny? Whatever he is selling, two to one we don't want any, But anyone who listens wants to buy before he leaves, ltis Acme super-advertising sponsored by George Reeves. And Mabel Edwards, the announcer, with persuasive tone. Makes it so convincing it would melt a hear-t of stone. This quite efficient radio, we feel we must say here, Was built by Herbert Pennington, th-e electrical engineer, If ever we should harm it ffor it canit go wrong itselfi We wouldnlt have to place it then upon a dusty shelf. For the firm of Harkins Sz Harkins would repair it good as new, fElectricains are Donald and Winstonl. And when the bill was due, It would be paid without a bit of argument or mess, Because the bill collector would be charming Evelyn Hess. Oh, yes, we have some travelers within our famous class, And one, indeed, of '38 is a very daring lass, In fact, it's hard to find a traveling girl as bold as she: Elizabeth Wakelandis touring the w-orld in a good -old Model T. But, if we go into the wildest jungles of Brazil, W7e'll find there Louise Bayless, exploring with a will. And Esther Gilbert has a job that is with danger fraught: She's an international agent, and holds her life at naught. Some others, too, we fin-d abroad, but they hav-esettled down: Mildred Creenfield's raising tulips in a small Dutch seacoast town. ln Czechoslovakio Henrietta Pouska now does well, With Hitler menacing we hope she stays alive and well. Lucille Bachman's in Mexico, looking for Aztec treasure, Perhaps she'll find a milli-on, and from it get much pleasure. And Mary Ann Schnepfe and Alyce Dennis have reason to be gay, They,ve married army officers and gone to Hawaii to stay. And what will happen to Bel Air High School after we go away? Will it manage to live without us, or crumble and decay? Ah! let your mind be set at ease and your thoughts continue free, For Brodnax Cameron at that time the principal will be. Yes, Mr, Remboldl' the thrilling events of history will tell, And Lee Anna Knight and Alice Greer will teach the grades as well. Marie Keen has coached a girls, champion basketball team, And Martha Worthington, with cheers and pep talks, gives them steam We have two Home Ecw teachers, Eleanor Dietz and Peggy O'Neill S-o now at the cafeteria we can get a splendid meal, And then with Evelyn Rhudy teaching French and English too, We're certain that the weaknesses of our old school are few. For kindergarten pupils, too, of worry there's no need, For Edna Bedsaulis understanding makes them learn with speed. 56

EL Amos, 1938 , , , The plans have all been carefully made by Fielder, the engineer, Steve Kahoe, the scientific grafter fplants, of coursej is here, And then, in order that the plants won't perish of disease. Myers, who knows bacteria, keeps careful check on these. If ever we should have the wish of pastry fine to feed, Elizabeth Sin-gleton's bakery will fill our every need. Now, friends of the class, remember, you should never be hurried at all, For crossing your bridges bef-ore they com-e in sight will cause a fallg But, if we want to cross them when at last in due time they appear, Theyill be built by Randall Cronin, the great civil engineer. Now, another word of cauti-on! Don't ever count your chicks Before they emerge from their eggshells, for haste and success donit mix, But if you should ever be wanting some eggs for a custard or cake, George Greenfield or Charles Stephens will serve you without mistake. Now, see that tramp who walks the railroad track? That,s Duncan MacRae Remember, now: you'll be like him, if you don't do what we say.
