Q 1928 JUNIOR HIGH BROADCASTER 21' THE TWENTY-EIGHTS The Senior Class of the Junior High School Has tried to do its best, In various parts of this organization, By wisely planning and consultation. The class president, Helen Rarie, In conducting class affairs, Has proved a leader good and true, As we hope she'll always do. Our Vice President Joe Knepp, Has neither dreamed nor slept, She's had a share right in the work, And never tried to shirk. Smoker Sue, the secretary, A person bright and cheery, A good scout wherever she's placed, By all considered a dearie. This class has a treasurer, By the name of Mitzi Zong, A person her standing has proved, She's surely helped the class along. Athletics is not lacking in this class, The basketball teams, girls and boys, Have won many victories Which gives us many joys. Liggetts, the boys manager, A tip-top record he made in his work, Wagner, the girls manager, Has always been alert. The Glee and Dramatics Clubs Progress throughout the year have made, We hope the progress still continues, And their triumphs never fade. We are as proud of our class . As any one could be, For we've strived for high ideals, And we know the faculty will agree. We mourn for those Who have left our class, lAnd wish we could win them back, So they never again would jump the track. As we go from Junior High, And go from place to place, May the memory of our noble deeds Never, never fade. A RIVER'S COURSE I come from the forest where the wild deer roam, Going by the mountaineer's woodland home Coming to a valley, from a mountain top, I steal through meadows, but never stop. I pass by pastures as I go to the mill, To grind the grain, the sacks to fill, ' I supply the factories both far and near, And all the thirsty iiocks do cheer. Where the sweet scented clovers grow, And the herds of cattle low, Where the trees all murmur a song, I glide peacefully and softly along. Then after other beautiful scenes, Into a bay from the pleasant greens, I glide, into the ocean large and wide, Splashing and dashing with the tide. Then my body of raindrops spread, To be taken by the sun from their ocean bed, This is the end of a river's course, To the ocean, from its mountain source.
