IT’S HARD TO LEAVE It’s time to go; yet I dread it so; To have to leave, is quite a blow. I'll miss that old familiar gym, Where we fought so hard to win. It seems most cruel to leave this school Where I’ve broken every rule; 1 hate to leave that dear old field Though memories of it are safely sealed. On that diamond, I've seen some fun Where Baldwinsville teams have lost-and won; I hate to leave my old class chums— We were such a gang of happy bums. There’s Reinhardt, president of our class, He started first, and finished last. Then there’s Diffenderfer, a dandy fellow, I’ll sure miss “Rajah but not his cello. When Adsit and Garrett leave the crew I’ll miss them both and Cl hope) their trombones, too. Perhaps more than all the rest— I’ll miss Furman, the busy guest. It grieves me most to leave behind An old devoted “pal of mine: And so I’ll surely hate like the deuce To leave the “B’villc Terror —“Tunkey” Luce. And Richard Price, how I’ll miss him. The only guy what’s full of vim; Then there’s Kelly, who can’t be beat. With his inseparable horse laugh, and number 12 feet. And then I’ll miss my spelling book so, As a matter of fact—it was missing long ago; I’ll surely miss my dear home room, If 1 get out of there it can’t be too soon! And then I’ll miss an awful lot Bicknell and his home-run swat. And Robert Orvis I’ll surely miss him. He’s been one of us through thick and thin. Tt’s going to make me feel quite blue When 1 have to leave some of the faculty too; Mrs. Tappan we’il never forget; On teachers like her the sun never sets. We hate to leave Cary’s good matured frown His is a head too good for a crown. We hate to leave Cussler, a Bobby Jones fan— Of course, he plays golf; you can tell by his tan. And now that I’ve reached the end of my rope I’ll take a few seconds to say what 1 hope. I hope that my classmates will fol’ow this trend— Matter not where we are. we’re all friends ’till the end. 29
