THE JUNIORS. When the Juniors become Seniors, There’ll be the deuce to pay, ’Cause there’ll never he as smart as class As this one is today. Who’d give a play like “Cousin Gene.?” Where Terry was a girl ? The amazing way he acted Would set you in a whirl. Ours the Champion Heavyweight, For you all know “Babe:’’ While for a perfect lover, Mervin Foster is the knave. If you want a good proposal, Let John Murphy try his hand. Bill Murphy is our slang profess’ And lie surely leads the band. When foot ball time was here, Our boys were in the fray, And their fighting o’er the pigskin Won old Auburn many a day. In basket ball you’ll find them, too, As always—at the front. And if you’re looking for a slacker, You’ll surely have “some” hunt. Those of the “snare sex” are so few That to name them is scarce worth while. For, excepting Margaret Kessler, They’re very meek and mild. We make a lot of gas in Chemistry, Though some is just “hot air,” We have so few explosions, ’Cause Miss Reed is always there. But in the “Lab.” one day, A cork did swiftly fly From “Rut” Snyder’s test-tube, And hit Irene Garvey in Ihe eye! In English three we aim to reach The halls of fame, as we learn The gentle art of public speech, Some there are, not mentioned here, But they’re just as smart as the rest, Tho’ to tell of all their merits, Would take a book I guess. Just one more thought before the end. And it is for Miss Reed. Who, for a class advisor, Never, never could be beat. —Mary Beard. 24
