THE SENIORS IN HIGH WATER There was a FLOOD IN '38; Upon my WORD the hour was late; It was a dark and RAINEY week; All the LOEW houses began to leak. 'Twas then a KIDD came RUSHING by, To SEAY the water, which was very high; One girl's ambition was a SENGER to be; So she sang some numbers l, 2, and 3. Over the fields the HAY was down; We saw a GRIFFIN flying around. The wind was raging, a sight to see; It even blew down a SIMMON tree! And in a RUSH the water was down; Along the road some MOSS we found; The people wondered what the PRICE would be, To repair the damage that they could SHAY. Home again! Home again! What a joy For every little girl and boy! Now GARLANDS we see lying around In many places over the ground. -Ealnor Shumaker IN THE SPRING Have you ever seen old Central in the spring? Happy, dear, old Central in the spring? When the children's cries are ringing, And the Choral Clubs are singing, For the victory home we're bringing, in the spring. Have you ever seen a Senior in the spring? A dignified Senior in the spring? When the teachers! heads are hoary, And the Senior tells his story, Of expected wealth and glory, in the spring. -Martha Spencer 26
