61.455 R0 L-1944 Sing .1 song of happiness. XX'itl1 pockets full of dreams Three and thirty seniors, Ut Deep River High, it seems. lfirst comes H.1rry julian of bntle S.1m's Navy Hes steered our sl1ip through many a gale And .1 skipper staunch is he. And who stands close beside l1im? For Harry's not alone, XVitl1 sunny hair and heart true blue XX l1o could it be bllt joan? And while were in this lovely mood Where Friendships candles burn Let's give a toast-of them we boast To Audrey and to Verne. XWithin our book of memories Are others--not .1 few. Some come along by one and one And others-two by two. Heres Betty Eagan, if sl1e l1ad l1er way On this we could depend F.D. would ever be our guide With neither lease nor lend! We have Ll pack within our midst It numbers several wolves. Dick, Bert and Brud -and Harley too To moonlit glades do rush. And you should hear their howling When Bob Carlson hollers, Mush! Then one we have who tends his traps For beaver, skunk or mole, He loves the woods-and this trapper? Hes our honor man-Dick Cole. Pearl's our artist-and is she clever! With ink and colors too. She makes the Rip les sparkle For me and you and?-you! Before we leave the realm of art For sports and songs-let's see What would we do without them? Uur cheerers- Stub and Bea. Then Betty St1rling's come this year And we hope she'll never move. For we all feel that Betty Is strictly in the groove. One of our midst has rogueish eyes The girls' hearts go all limpy, When they see his shy and impish grin Who could this be-but Wimpy. Now who's this chap? He's all agog. He's minus coat and hat And such excitement! My oh my! Is it dead lines or engines, Mat? Here's a lassie fair and tall And Natalie is her name lf Cupids' darts dont strike her At nursing she'll win her fame. liame, did you say? And why not? For Olympics we have all the makings For Ed and Elliott and old jo Mo! Sports records are tl1eirs for the takings. But have we any pin up girls Wfithin our Hall of Fame? Indeed we have-the G.I's choice And Bena is her name. And now we are hailing A sweet u'iumme lass Her gifts she is always concealing Until the right time wl1en shes needed the most Then Winnie will then be revealing. And here are a couple of pitchers Of quite different talents, it's true For while Ruby's a whiz with a baseball Our Ippie -he pitches the woo. If all were as quiet as I-Iolly And as nice and considerate too A teacher's job would be heaven. I'll say Right! to that one. Wont you? Rosa and Mag Carlson come in for their turn now, They have what it takes in every way, So stand up, kids and take a big bow. A tall young man approaches Within his hand a suit case lt's jasper Smith-with his beaming smile The best of sports-he sets the pace. Cudgy Nichols' smiling face. And gay infectious giggle Have brightened many a gloomy day She's a flirt-but not too fickle. One of our heroes, Al Haas is the name To this there is just no retort, Unless he has changed, and we don't thing he has, Has a sweetheart in every port. And here's Cat Stopa-my! what a smile! She's the friendliest of folk. And though she seldom cracks one She can surely take a joke. We had two Alans in our group But both have left us yearning For the gay good days before they went: For Bucky -the air corps-for Scotty more learning. So God speed-good Ship '44, O'er a sea of troubled waters You're helping to build a brave free world For all our sons and daughters! SARAH Piucs ELY
