FAREWELL TO TECH The day draws near when we must say Farewell To our faculty, classmates, and to you. Tech, as well. We enter a world of uncertainty and sorrow To do our part in the world of tomorrow. Many happy hours we have spent here at school. And many times we have disobeyed the easiest rule: But. all in all. we’ve kept our standards high. And now as we leave, much harder we must try. Many of our classmates will be sent far away To the wars that threaten our safety today. With these boys will be our prayers for a quick and safe return, We thank them for their efforts toward the peace for which we yearn. But now, our student days are nearing their end. We determine in our hearts to finish the tasks we begin. The curtain falls; Juniors, we leave our places to you, And turn to face a bigger world as we proudly say Adieu. — MIDGIE CARNES. Page Twelve
