Twenty-six C RUX HI SKAN Senior Class Poem Hello—yes, the class of ’27 Is speaking on the line, No—not the class of ’37. Please do not err in time. The class that honors the magisters Whose minds tend to soar, The one who lightens all the cares; The best class evermore. The brilliant ones who glitter; Like a lump of solid gold, Not the “slacker” nor the “quitter” But, the old gang that will hold. There are basketeers and workers, Football stars and all. There is not one single “shirker” In the classroom or the hall. Pull is our word forever For the teachers and the school; Pull forward, backward never; Helping others—is our rule. Goodbye—we shall depart Leaving space for ’28. With Alma Mater close to heart We will go—lest we’ll be late. —MARGARET YOUNG. vtbj
