CLASS SCNG (Tune—“Pal of My Cradle Days”) When the last day draws nigh, In our hearts there’s a sigh. For those last moments that we may spend With teachers and friends who have guided us. Then all our school day's will end. As we choose separate paths. That will lead us at last. To the goal that we strove hard to get. With hearts filled with joy. as we travel on, Welcoming what will come at last. Chorus: Farewell, old Athens High, We’re leaving you, Athens High, Through all of these four years Vou’ve taught us to Do all our task, as best we knew. Your memories, so dear. Will last with us through the years. We don’t know any way, We can ever repay, You, dear old Athens High. Juneyor Brown. ALMA MATEP Where the waters, mingling softly, Cast their silvery chains Round our peaceful little Athens Alma Mater reigns. With the sturdy hills around her Guarding from all storm, And her proud head, crowned by heaven Stands she, safe from harm. Chorus: Sing her praise in swelling chorus, Raise her to the sky, Hail to thee, our Alma Mater. Hail, dear Athens High !

 Always in time of dire distress, Those who don’t drown in the sea Attempt something nearly as foolish Such as writing a class prophecy. Be lenient 1 beg in your judging. Please don’t be too hard on me. Trusting you will, I give to you Our graduating class prophecy. Griswold will surely build bridges. And Lawrence preach sermons to you, While Mitchell, who always had friends at school W ill sadly bid Athens adieu. Later he’ll be at the court of Saint James, While Patton frolics at Rome. And I shall be a second Babe Ruth With Juneyor becoming high-toned. Brown is sure to coach at Athens, While Wallin pilots a plane. Robbins will star at Hollywood And Johnston sail the Seine. Leonard, well known as a writer. Will put Athens on the maps, And Stanley White, who's always right, Will be a professor perhaps. Charley Northrup is sure to swim When he enters life's swift-flowing river, While Lewis tussles with might and main To invent a new kind of flivver, box says that he'll be an inventor, With Savacool a musician. Jim Smith a famous composer. And Burrow a good magician. 1 have Webster an orchestra leader. And Richie the neighbor’s despair, For none of them can find a way To silence his saxophone’s blare. Mekeel as United States banker Is bound to succeed somehow. While Harding as mayor of Athens Is sure to be a wow. I have Ryan a second Rockne, And Keeney a Reggie Root, With John and Gene on a New York team Making their pro debut. In the employ of our president George White will be a chauffeur. While Owen, a Supreme court judge, Has made many a rich man suffer. Bowen and Cook arc famous generals In our own U. S. Army, While Walker’s exploits with long distance guns Are called especially nervy. Howard, an ambitious student, Is our only successful chemist. Although Minier has gained some fame As a biology specialist. In Congress they say the only King-fish Is the fiery Huey Long. But in a space of a few short years We’ll develop another in Armstrong. Invincible F.arl Northrup and likeable Bob Lincoln Are a couple hard to beat. Both will serve in the Capitol To make this prophecy complete. Jacob Hennip.
