R is for Rossignol, A swell classmate is she. Just ask any Junior, And you will soon see. R is for Real, And you can just bet, She's fond of the boys Or the masculine set. S is for Southard, Stevens, Stowell, and Spiller, Cute gals are they, They are all killer-dillers. T islfor Taylor, She's a gal you'll all like, But on all the trips It's with Gordon she'll hike. U is the letter That's hard to make rhyme, We'll just let it go Till some other time. V is for Vigue, He plays the cornet, He'll be a musician, That you can bet. W is for Wrigley, A rugged young chap. His excellent build, Is a feather in, his cap. Warren and Wentworth, Are girls with dark hair. When you see them together, They are pals, you would swear.
