LUDLOW HIGH SCHOOL page twenty-seven THE SAGA OF 748 Looking back over twelve happy years, Our eyes are misty and wet with tears. Our first day of school, how well we remember, We had waited so long for that day in September. So we glided through first grade and second as well, And we learned how to read and to write and to spell. With the sixth grade half our school l'fe was through, We were reaching the top and our goal was in view. In seventh and eighth, which is called Junior High, The girls curled their hair and the boys winked their eyes. Then thrill of all thrills we reached High School at last, And were known far and wide as the Freshman Class. As Sophomores we simply stood by in awe, And stared at the Seniors who “lay down the law!” As Juniors the Prom was our biggest affair, That night was enjoyed by all who were there. At last we were Seniors, oh, joy unconfined! Being “cock of the walk”, we were rather refined, But we laughed and we sang while the months flew by, And now we must leave with a tear and a sigh. But to those who “hate school,” believe us, we know, When you get to be Seniors, you'll be sorry to go! CLASS SONG The time for parting has arrived; We must face the world, Though the future is uncertain And life’s flag unfurled. We will go forward heads up high, Be prepared to fight The many hurdles that confront us And work for the right. The guidance taught us and the knowledge We have gained in school, Will be our guiding star And help us keep the rules. Our childhood mem’ries, high school glories We will ne’er forget, They’ll be a torch to light our way Through darkness or regret. And so we bid farewell to thee, We must take our leave, From dear old Ludlow High School Though it makes us grieve. We are the class of forty-three, Who now we bid all adieu May God bless our Alma Mater And ever see her through. Words: Catherine Janes Music: Earl W. Bennett By Leona Boudet TO THE YEARS AHEAD We’ve been together these past four years, Now each must go his way, To work and fight, and plan and hope For a better world someday, We stand at our best, unbiased and free, The American youth today, To guard our heritage, preserve our faith, From these we’ll never stray. With courage, devotion, ideals, and pride, Our battles we’ll fight to the end. To err is human, and human we are, But our best is the least we can spend, We’ll never forget these past four years, And our class of Forty-Three, They’ll mean so much in future times In our struggle for victory.
