She has no worries as of yet. We're sure she'll lead a happy life, That Burgess girl will do alright. To Chicago every summer she goes, A good job waits she well knows. Jan Carlberg likes to travel too, But anywhere she's a friend to you. Barbara Carroll is a pretty lass, who is always seen with Pat. In school she is so very neat, And as a friend she can't be beat.

A bright future's sure to come For John, we think, don't you? He gives Miss Scott a pretty rough time In American History, you see. But David has an intelligent mind, This Wright boy's sure to succeed. John R' WOOCI is our treasurer, And makes our money last. He spends it in his leisure, We hope it's for the class.
