Class Poem We are the Seniors of '54, And graduation time is here once more. We number thirteen in our last year, A description of each follows here. Joanne Abernathy is kind of quiet. When you see her skate, you want to try it. Nancy Walker is the studious one in our class, We know she'll find happiness that will last. Joanne Webb plays in the school band, When a friend needs help, she'll lend a hand. Janice Maior is happy-go-lucky and funny, Someday she'll marry a man with a lot of money. Barbara Six isn't much over 5 ft. l, But, nevertheless, she's a lot of fun. Katy Mairet is an enthusiastic sports fan, When her favorite makes a point, she thinks it's grand James McNiel is tall and slim, All his friends call him Jim. Dwight Cochran is quite a riotg When he 's around, it's never quiet. Harley McCleary has a car, And with his iob is going far. Robert Brigg is a very good athlete, In any sport he 's hard to beat. John Vlhitmore is a freckle-faced kid, lf he says he didn't do it, you know he did. Thomcs Curray doesn't usually have much to say, But he will be a big success in life someday. James Davis is always talking, You notice his bowlegs when you see him walking. I5
