' r f 1 - il' X X13 5 ZVAWW SQ -M - if .4 T R E D0 XNWNA8' Jesse Brown is not so slow As first appearance might go to show. He's been going to High School for so long, NYe're beginning to think to the faculty he must belong. Richard Klauer is slow but sure. For his bashfulness he needs a cure. He is athletic and makes his grade too, That's more than lots others can do. Genevieve Christenson is happy and gay But she always wants to have her own way. A school teacher she fain would be, How cross she is, we'll wait and see. Donald Cross the football star. ln basketball he's up to par. An example he'd be for one in despair To keep on trying il you want to get there. VV'hen it comes to basketball Dorothy Johnson beats them all. lf you see Carrie, Dorthy's sure to be near But if you don't see her, her voice you'll soon hear. Margaret Burke with golden hair .Had it bobbed so it would take less care. As a pianist she has become famous, Her other qualities make girls envious. lf length of time measures the merit of the job, Harold Clarke would be the smartest of the mob. As the knowledge of the Seniors is on the same plane, lle must have spent his time in raising cane. To see what Alcester lost in '22 At Edith Johnson take a view. In Civics class she takes the cake Cn the good recitations she can make. Mable Kjose who comes from the country to school, Has never been known to break a rule. She's always studying and is a good scholar, To know how she does it would be worth many a dollar.
