CLASS POEM Who comes first in the center row? Coy's boy Roy, of course you know, Now I'll tell you something that's really great, For school and classes he's never late, Gloria QShortyj Beals surely is tall, She sleeps in the parlor with her feet out in the hall Although she is long and tall, She likes Kansas boys best of all, Least but not last is Hugh Pinnick, Everywhere he goes he's sure to cause panic, For he is only 4 feet 7 inches tall, And only Z0 years young, that's all, As for Donald Wiseman a he man, He goes to Marengo everytime he can, Also a star on the basketball team, When he plays we're usually on the beam, Peggy Ferguson, her nickname is Pete, She wears size 4? on her feet, Of a sailor she is quite fond, Although he is far across the pond, jackie Brown is quite a guy, And with Betty Mosson he's never shy, In the rooms, and in the halls, He thinks she's the cutest girl of all, I Now Lillie Lee Highfill is a gal, Bud Zehr is her best pal, They are never never seen apart, For they have gone steady from e start, th Lou Hanger is quite cute, And for her there's no substitute, She is a bold black headed witch, And many a time her beaus do switch, joan Crews surely has a strong will, She'll get Dean, or surely keep still, Brunet one day, Red head the next: Wonder which one Dean likes best? Gerald Hughes is not too short and not too tall, But as for the girls, he wants them all, He flirts with the blondes and all the rest, We wonder which color he likes the best, 15

Phillip Spears has the prettiest hair, And Carolyn Oehmann he tries to snare, Of all the girls he does like, She is the best one who lives on a pike, Now joseph Grant is quite a gent, I-Ie also is our class president, And with the girls he isn't shy, Yet he has none, I wonder why? Mary Tucker is really quite a show, With'er diamond ring all aglow, The lucky man is a Smith, Wonder which rolling pin she'll hit him with? Garnet Barnett is quite O'Kay, Everyone likes her in every way, She 's the truest blond in our class, And in all classes she does pass, Wanda Gail Faulkner is our yell leader, There's no other girl who can ever beat'er, In the morning and at noon she's always late, Maybe because someone walks her to the gate, Take Maxine Smith, the active girl, She eats Corn Flakes as her cereal, When her nice blue eyes begin to shine, You'll know she's up to mischief everytime, Cedric Wilson, a millunan is he, And a lot of Betty Hubbard he does see, Though be he quiet and slightly shy, He thinks Betty Lou is just right, Alice Mosson has a diamond ring, They say she gets married in the spring, A very lucky girl is she, For they say his naxne is McGee, Gladys Husk our stand she does keep, And she makes money by the heap, She is a girl from Grantsburg town, Which is a place of great renoun, Nancy Stewart, the sophisticated girl of our class She surely does know how to act, Her beaus do come from far and near, Wonder who it will be this time next year? 16
