Twcntyftwo CLHSS PUEIH In Jenkintown, in far-gone ages A prayer arose from the wisest sages: Oh send us,-not from the common throng,- Superior beings, wise and strong, Students with beguiling ways, That we may rest in our older daysf' The heavens heard and answered their prayer And sent a race of mortals fair,- Superior beings, so wise, so strong,- So far above the common throng,- That the sages rejoiced and sang in praise, Sure of lightened labors in later days. These splendid mortals, fair of face, Were endowed with every charming grace. They came, they saw, they gathered renown, And carried by storm staid Jenkintown. Soon in the schools began to shine The reflection brilliance of Thirty-Nine. Doris Goodfriend's raven locks,- -Iimmien Gleason glowing socks,- Martha Cruse, fwhat stylish frockslj Gorham Getchell, athlete supreme,- Iz Esbenshade, eternal scream, - Young Doheny, who some call Meme. Chapman and Frank, a famous pair,- Brindley, scientist ripe and rare,- And Alex, whose art is more than a flair! Smooth-mannered Betts, -last name's Crowe,- And Gert Yerkes, wl1o'll sew and sew,- Muscular Hannon,-just call 'im Joe, Don't forget Jane and her Paris clothes, - Dot Stahl,-grace and rhythm on twin- kling toes,- And the Domenic gal, sweet, quiet Rose. Batch, in school life with all of her heart,- Edison,' Gillet, clever and smart,- Ginnie Buehl, whose passion is art. As Thirty-Nine moved through the years, Gaining strength and stature, spurning fears, And climbing heights none else had tried, Loud came the plaudits from every side,- From teachers awed by Class so zealous,- From other classes, proud but jealous! Slim Kathleen,-you know her as Kitty, - Mary Botts, amusing and witty,- Katie, too, as charming as pretty. Violet Cawthray, who likes to sing,- Ruth Yeagle, what about that ringij- C And oh, how Sketch loves red-hot swing! Shy Helen,-the last name's Sauer,- Prexy Bake, blond Tyrone Power,- lVlarge Doheny, who sews by the hour Kate Ohlicher, great gal with a gun,- Well-groomed Ann,-Miss Richardson,- Bob Hohlefelder, whose hobbies are fun Could we do without Elsie Mae? Or dark-eyed Cille, tongue a-wag all day? Or silent Syd', and his quiet way? Then all too soon we found one day, That time had quickly slipped away,- Dim Grade School days almost forgot,- Quite through with Junior High, and not A thing to keep us a unit Hne Except the High School days of Thirty-Nine Daisy Johnson, of musical fame,- Wilson Cosner - Spike his nickname- ! D CL 73 ' Harve Tomilson, who hates hardly a dame! And then Lukie, likable Bill,- Scholar Goldberg,-lady know as Lil, - Irma Hamilton, and her typing skill. Besse and his lashes long,- Cute Bette Haag, tops at ping-pong,-- Petite Phelps, our sweetheart of song. What a music career for Walt we see Think of Peg and personality,- Senator Blake? Could bel Could be! Alma Plank, our Rockledge belle,- Doris Point, ffor the Navy felllj- Modest Taddei, who types so well. Mary Smith, so nice, so neat,- And tiny Sis, -oh ain't she sweet! Kearnsie makes our class complete. And now we fear the time has come To bid goodbye to everyone. School that has nourished all our dreams Along the way so far, it seems Not sweet, the parting, but sorrow As we leave thee on the morrow. Endless classes still to come, Our course is done, yours yet to run. Raise higher still the lofty name, Of H. S. Guard well its fame. In another day, another time, Remember kindly, Thirty-Nine.
