SENIOR CLASS POEM By the shores of Umatilla By the shining little river Stands a schoolhouse bright and sunny. There the class of Thirty-eighters Gathered to begin their learning Gathered with their books and pencils With their saucy upturned faces Shocked the people with their ignorance Called each other funny nicknames. Many things the teachers taught them Of the stars of screen and air-waves Showed them how to do the Schottish Schottish with the old time Polka. Taught them how the nations battle How the money-Kings control us How the leaders of the country Ploughed the wheat and piggies under. Taught them things they won't remember If they did they'd be peculiar At the Gym on winter evenings Sat the little thirty-eighters. Heard the whistling of the Umpire Saw the hero of the evening Make two points for Alma Mater. Oski-wa-wa . yelled the bleachers Wiski-we-we , yelled the leader. Now sophisticated seniors Learned in every field and subject Come to bear away their sheepskins V ith the blue and silver ribbons And the golden seal upon them. Bid farewell to school and scholars Sally forth to make the dollars.

SLImIOR class sokg Thanks for the memory e say so-long to you, To our colors white and blue. The chalk fights in the study hall, The things we shouldn't do How jolly it. was! Thanks for the memory A bumpy, crowded bus. Refreshments if we won; V.e seldom had refreshments But, posh, did we have fun How jolly it was! . Dozinr in Civics and Lnplish And slinging of spit-wr.ds is done; Oh, well, it was swell ,.hile it lasted, be did have fun and no harm done. So thanks for the memory Of erasers in the air, Paners on the floor, We may have been a headache. But we never were a bore. So thank you so much.
