DAe, Indian £eqend fo- ' i ’OMiy-tAAee - SENIOR CHARACTERISTICS Listen, my children, and you shall hear Of the most dignified seniors of any year. As freshmen we were so carefree and gay, As sophomores we still carried the day; When juniors our work was hard to buck, And as seniors we know graduating isn’t just luck. Who makes up this elegant class? Pause a while and I’ll review them as they pass: This is Joseph Beagle, a promising lad— And the quietest that our class had. Who’s that blonde in the pretty blue dress? That’s Hazel Hanks—as a student, she’s one of the best. And that nice-looking boy with the black wavy hair— If it isn’t Johnny Benton, I do declare! This is Doris Posey and such a smart lass, She takes the place of first in our class. “Come on, Dynamite—shoot that goal!” That’s Nellie Skinner whom you now behold! “I got the transcription” comes the shout, That’s Ralph Chinn, without a doubt. Behold our class President—Marie Verburg, Our annual editor, too—which I’m sure you’ve heard. “Here comes the Navy, bring out the red, white, and blue.” Yes, that’s Harold Odham—some sailor for you! Another of our seniors serving Uncle Sam, Is Silas Hewitt, who certainly is grand. Here comes Leathie Mae Jett so shy and sweet, One of the best little students that you could meet. Now if you’re looking for a stenographer, let me suggest Miss Alma Burton—she’s one of the best. Maurice Barber is very remote and sort of shy, And will certainly be missed at Falmouth High. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, Charlotte Horne could sing her way to heaven. Now here comes Gloria Peregoy, a very studious girl, I’m sure she’ll obtain great things in this world. Wilmer Sullivan is a serious and mannerly lad; He comes second to none but Sir Galahad. As an orator, Clifton Burton sure can “shoot a line.” He’s polite, dresses neatly, and looks swell all the time. This is Florence Payne, a real “prima donna”; To have her as a student, we feel, is quite an honor. Beauty and brains are a rare treat; Caroline Brooks has both; she’s hard to beat. Cecil Burton is this young man’s name— Basketball playing like his is sure to lead to fame. Here is Rosann Lupton, a grand girl; As a homemaker, she’s the best in the world. Roses are red and violets are blue, Sugar is sweet and Frances Wine is, too. The little senior boy that is all the girls’ pet— Why it’s William Snellings, you can just bet! The girl whose eyes shine with that certain light from above, Oh, its Alene Patton—she’s in love. Myrtle Dickinson is so sweet. Now, boys, look— To go out with her, you have to carry a date book. NINE
