Class Song Tune- Now Is the Plourv Now is the hour-when we must say good-byeg Soon we'll be sailing far across life's sea. While welre away, oh! welll remember you And dream of school days spent on Glenville Hill. Our colors are-vermilion red and blueg The yellow rosebud is our flower true. Eager to learn and ready all to serve, As we are going all our hearts do yearn. Codorus High-to thee we bid farewellg In joy and sorrow, youlll in our memiries dwell. The time is here when best of friends must part. Farewell Codorus High to you good-bye. Vermilion Red and Royal Blue BY MARION HUNT, '48 V-is for the victory we had in our games.

L -is for loyalty we have for teachers. L -is for the leniency they have shown. I -is for the illustrations from preachers. O-is for their opinions at times they sent.

Class Poem BY Lois Kirrs, '48 The hill looked steep and rugged that day, As sixty-six students found their Way To the school at the top, Old Codorus High. Yes, we were the freshmen, timid and shy. We were a happy group our freshman year. High school for us was nothing drear. Some took part in sports, some studied like mad, And we survived our first year without feeling too bad. Our sophomore year brought something we weren't all expecting, For then we had experience in the art of dissecting. We gathered wild flowers and studied trees, Insects and mammals and the life history of bees. We then became juniors, eager and stern. We had a will to work and a desire to learn, With English, algebra, French and history, Though a few experiments in physics still remain a mystery. Then came our senior year, some of our happiest school days, With its parties and sports, the operetta and our play. We continued to study to avoid falling behind, For many of us being seniors had a definite goal in mind. Many are the memories that will linger, many the dreams we dreamed And even the hill we climbed that day is not as steep as it seemed. For happy were our school days spent at Codorus High, So in conclusion we just want to say so-long, not good-bye. T211
