And then in the year of -49 , We were planning to leave this school behind. Then we have TORGERSON who governs us most As most of you know, he's our basketball coach. He's always good for a laugh or two, But if you cross him it's heck to undo. Now we have a person who's in her prime, Even though she's over thirty-nine. She's one of the teachers of C. H, S., MRS. BUETTNER is the one if you can't guess. Out football coach was MR. REID, We called him Baldy , yes indeed. And if you were to mess up a play, OH! What terrible words he'd say. Our English teacher is JACK MELROSE, He thinks we're stupid, we wonder how he knows. He's the band director in our school, To most of us, He's no man's fool. Then in this year of 1950 , We studied hard and were very thrifty. If you didn't study, now it's too late, For this is the year we graduate. Simon and Clem want to mention their names, Maybe someday it will bring them fame. Not as President of the United States, But perhaps someday at the Pearly Gates. Now teachers, we will apologize here, For the things we've done throughout this year. Not only this year but all of them, From the Senior Class, including Clem. Here's where we change from silly to sad, We all have our faults, but we aren't all bad. Now we would like to say Good-by, To all the students of Cottonwood High. In hopes that you will take our places. Not in costumes all covered with laces, But in football suits and basketball too, We'll be on the side lines watching you. Delbert Nuxoll and Don Simon
