SENIOR CLASS POEM We’re telling you of angels from heaven. Twenty-four verses you’ll hear Of this our class of '57 Who's leaving you this year. We have a list right here on paper. Don’t be surprised to hear Some of our deeds and little capers We have performed through the years. An all-round guy is Bobbie Miller. The president of our class. In sports he is quite a thriller And popular with every lass. Frannie loves her math and chem. And teachers—they go with it. She doesn’t mind studying them, And her A's--they show no limit. Dale, why do you pester the girls When you could be very nice? You hit them, poke them, and pull their curls When you know a scolding is the price. Singing is Janet's specialty Upon this you'll all agree. Why was she gifted; why was she blessed? She has this talent; why can't we? Donnie Menzel, our six foot lad, Dn the team is a must. Both on the floor and on the road All you see is a cloud of dust. Oh, maiden fair, i love my nail. Mine eyes look Into thine. What's this we hear? Well, I’ll declare! It's Paul Buckles' line. Our Donna Ford gives advice Though she is young in days. She says to boys who can't be nice You'd better change your ways. While Frances Leesman, our roving one. Goes out of town to have her fun, Darlene Houghton, our country belle. Can paint our town just as well. Roily Yeast, you know, Is a farming lad. He's got that farm know-how. He feeds the cows—that’s not too bad— But milks the chickens—wow! ! To Judy the future looks bright. Asked if she'll marry she’ll say, I just might Her daddy says an old maid she will be. But this little brunette doesn't agree. A paper wad flies 'cross the room! A holler splits the airf All right, Mike French, that's enougnI Sit in that comer cnalr! I Taking books home every night To study vigorously Beverly Turner will go far Just wait———you'll see. Herbie Harwood, as you all know, In every class does labor— He's last to come and first to go. And girls, he does not favor. Our class is quiet till Jeanie's in it! She with her laughing smile, Is a pal to everyone. Of this there's no denial. Clump! Clump! Clump! Clump! Now what on earth can that be? When you hear it please don't jump. It’s Sharon Wikoff—has to be! Una, where were you today? You know we've missed you so. Why don't you pull up a chair and stay? We’ll talk about your beau. Lyle Rogers is chic, strong, and tall, And for him all the girls do fall. But Atlanta girls—to his way of thinkin— Aren't nearly as nice as those in Lincoln. Sharon makes her future plans, Which makes her very gay. Though she'll scrub those pots and pans. She’ll be happy day to day. Another brilliant boy is Lee. Mechanics is his joy. He helps his dad on the farm, you see, And someday he'll be a farmer boy. Now here comes our tumbler, Ellen, no doubt; For when she's nbt writing, she's tumbling about And here comes Carole with her cheerful ways. And at home she almost never stays. A quiet boy, you may think. But Myron is deceiving Just like the cover of a book—- Seeing is not believing. Your authors, the four of us— Judy, Donna, Ivy, and Kay- Got together to discuss Each person’s verse for your O. K.
