THF SASSAMON 9 CLASS SONG - 1942 Vern' I How sad the thought that soon we must part, Teachers and schoolmates so close to our heartg Soon only mem'ries left to revere, Menfries and friendships so long we'ye held dear.

Verre III Farewell, dear teachers, classmates, adieu, May all you hope for surely come true. May all you strive for be blest by the rightg All of your pathways with sunshine be bright. lVord,r by Sl11.f16'j' .lforgan Tune of Beautiful Dreamer CLASS PROPHECY The sign on the door proclaimed to the worldthat Madame Olympia was now open for business. As we entered the portals of this charming salon we were unaware of the pleasant surprise which was in store for us for how were we to know that Madame Olympia was our own little friend of high school days, Lee Grupposo? Imagine our still greater delight, when Lee announced to us that by looking in her crystal ball she could give us a glimpse of all out Natick High School classmates at work in their various walks of life. It was with frenzied excitement that we listened to the quiet voice of this effectual person as she began to recall the names of those who were once so familiar to us. As I glance in my crystal ball I see a large building which appears to be the W7h1te House at Washington, D. C. Looking further, I see President John Moffatt CFD surrounded by his cabinet members, namely: Secretary of Labor .... George Boyd Secretary of Interior .. Bob Langton Secretary of VVar .... .... G uy Wayne Secretary of Navy .... Warren Reid Secretary Secretary Secretary Secretary Attorney of State .... of Agriculture of Commerce of Treasury . General ..... Postmaster General . . .
