G L A S S POE M—1 944 By the Bard of Maybrook Robert Rakov As we, tl?e Glass of Forty four, Go out fronj Goshen Gentral's door. We think of njany things we'Ye done, That weren't quite right—but lots of fun. On leaving now these sacred walls, With chilly roonjs and freezing halls. We thank our teachers for their strain. And hope their work was not in vain. Of English we've all had our fill. With H. G. H. and old Wild Bill , They've yelled at us both loud and long, That aren't is right and amt is wrong. To Mr. Sinclair we've all been A lot of work—he's growing thin. Because of this it looks as though. For rest, he’s forced to seek Monroe. In Math we'Ye had our little spree While coaxed along by L. McKee, And when with studies we're all through, We’ll ne'er forget old Thumpin' Lou. Hist'ry—Pritchard; Science—Sprague; Shorthand fron) a guy nanjed Gregg. We've studied wars; with bones we've played; We've learned how disjoined A’s are njade. To Mr. Hooker we give our thanks For putting up with all our pranks. When we go out, the World to face, We'll all be proud of Gharley's Place. But now that we have reached the end, And through the World our ways we wend. We realize, as well we should, That Goshen High was pretty good!
