YEAR BOOK, 1955 Page 21 V ARTS Diana Watson — Full of school spirit, Di is an enthusiastic pupil in gym classes, Captain of the Form Basketball Teann, mennber of the Second Basketball Squad, staunch supporter of the Beta Kappa and our Secretary-Treasurer. Good luck at Channberlain in Boston next year. MARCO You all have seen that little dog Of black and white, who comes to school. Marco Polo is her name But she comes to work, and not to fool. This pup ' s maths are good, they say For she can add one bone to two, And get a total in one day Unparalleled by me or you. Our hearts go out to Marco dear ; So do our lunches, I ' ve heard tell. Her air is meek, her eyes so brown ; She ' s loved and petted — fed so well ! Our small student leaves this year, Matriculation is her aim. The future calls to Marky dear, We all feel sure she ' ll win us fame. And so it is with heartfelt grief We say So Long for a little while To a mascot who, for a time so brief, Sat so loyal in our classroom aisle.
