CLASS POEM FAREWELL TECH As we stand in the hallway of Tech, We look up to the big clock which says, ' ' Commencement! For the first time we realize that soon we ll be saying good-bye to you, The school that holds first place in all our hearts. As we look down the hallway, we must admit That it has been six brief years since we first entered Tech, Years filled with toil, but marked with happiness; That comes from comradeship with those whom we hold dear. As we stand entranced, looking toward the future, We understand that soon we shall sail an unknown sea. May the guidance of God and the high ideals of Tech Keep us safe from unknown perils on the voyage men call life. We want to say thanks to vou for everything, For the many things we ' ve learned, And also for the joyful times we ' ve had. So with saddened hearts we say Farewell, Tech. M artha Williams CLASS SONG Tune: Maybe You ' ll Be There Each time we think of dear old Tech High, The times we ' ve had and all the fun, We know we never will forget our friends— We love them every one. The fun we had in junior high school And then in senior high school, too, And all the teachers who have been our friends, You know we love you, too. We won’t forget the fun at parties, At all the plays and at the banquets, too; But most of all you know, dear Tech High We always will love you. And when this senior year has ended, And we have said our last good-byes, Perhaps a tear we ll shed— or maybe two— For, Dear Tech, we love you. Pat Beck P«ye Twenty-one
