m. The Class of '23 Sixty-two green freshmen entered the halls of fame Sixty two freshmen lived up to their name For several months they kept getting lost For several months they consented to be bossed But finally with a burst of pride Their greenness they did endeavor to hide. 1 hey took part in athletics, socials and things And at last the halls with their laughter rang As the upper-classmen crawled into their holes For they couldn’t beat those freshies, to save their souls. 2 A smaller bunch of Sophies started out the second year. They didn’t resemble those freshies, for they’d lost all their fears The girls had the Seniors beat a mile When it came to playing basket-ball in style And the fellows filled the empty spaces When the Juniors and Seniors lost the races Here’s to the Sophies, they couldn’t be beat Not even when prizes were given for the biggest feet. 3 And the next year they were Juniors And believe me they were boomers For the dance thev gave was a grand success And even the faculty had to confess We weren’t so bad after all The Junior-Senior banquet was next in line The supper—the dance, it was all just fine The lights, the confetti and the rest of the mess Made a delightful job for the janitor I guess Tho we managed to get gyped out of our play We made up our minds we’d have one next year—if we had our say And so the year ended with one more thrill The honor of ushering added a frill To the Senior graduation which filled our hearts with anticipation And so the year was brot to a close With a joy that only a Junior knows. 4 The Seniors gay and mighty Began their fourth year rather flighty hirst of all they gave their play The cast was chosen and started on the way They worked hard and long everyday Page twenty-lwo -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------M
