CHRISTMAS SNOW Christmas time is drawing near. The shopping season’ll soon be here , With aching feet wo try to find Just the things we have in mind For all of our friends and neighbors near, So we may share the Christmas cheer. Eddie granger '56 T’he 3now is slowly falling down It's softly falling all arouni. Soon it'll cover up the ground And make it hard to get ground, But if the ground should ocay so brown Our winter beauty could not be found. Tommy Magnant '5° the martyr. There once was a man from the hills j u. Who lived all his life by his skills . From morn 'till night He sang of his rights, With the happist kind of trills. To the end of the day, was toil For him who overturned the soil', But, when it came 'round He'd recline with his hound, Reliving the day's long moil. ? I saw her just the other day It was love at first sight, x guess. . , She wasn't too good to look at, Her coat was an awful mess. I sav at a glance she was all al°ne , j u04 Not a friend in the world had she, , . And the moment she opened her mouth to speak, I knew she had fallen for me. To this end of his day he chor'd Tho' in mind, he was nev r deplor'd. For his spending o:: time Without making e dime, Ha dwell in t. a ’'Hour' or the Lord , Lelar wv 3t ’5 6 s I stood there gazing into her eyes X said to myself, She'3 for mo« ■ I picked her up and carried her home; , . . I was nappy ns I could be. ■’ rother didn't like her, Br j g.xVti ncr awiy, when she's grown up I'll see. That K1™TN- gdin some day. nruce Corey '56

GIRLS BASKETBALL 8 Ve are nine in ell out for basketball; We practice daily at the old town hall» At times, when we get there,we almost freeze. But after a while, we can play with ease. Dorothy is one of our forwards tall; Joyce is another who shoots the ball. Betty and Nancy swap off at times. There's always cheers from the aide lines. Arreta, Sandrs and myself play as guard. To keep them from making a basket is hard-» Betty Ann and Sandy are there to help; There's lots of excitement as the ball flies about. Our cheer leaders, four, ore alweys so willing To get up and yell when the baskets we're filling» Mr. Trainor, our coach, has his hopes way up high. As more baskets are mode and the time passes by. When we have a game we plan to win; We usually lose, but thatls no sin I The boys do no better, so why should we fret? We always feel sure that we'll win one yet. Ramona Magnant '57 THANKSGIVING Thanksgiving is always celebrated on the lest Thursday Ln November.
