SOPHOMORE POEM Sing a song of sporty clothes Socks and flashy tie, Ten and eight Sophomores, Don’t they look spry? When their mouth is open, They can surely sing. Now aren’t they a pretty Class? To break the Freshmen in? They like to study German, They study hard in Zoo’, They’ve dissected every creature From Amoeba down to “Bug-a-boo.” Their voices are melodious Their heads are full of brains, Find x, y, z, in Algebra, And guide “Bill Caesar’s” reins. Write stories in their Rhetoric, Know history by the mile, Count petals in their Botany, They look nice when they smile. The girls have nice red rosy cheeks. They use the poyder-puff, They’re up to every vexing scheme, They know quite how to bluff. But now I’ve told you all their faults, ’Twould not be really fair, To pass along in rambling thoughts. And not their virtues share. They’ve done their year of High School work, Their marks have all been good, They’ve kept the Freshmen off the grass, They’ve done the best they could. Our Alma Mater’s proud of them, And soon they’ll Juniors be, A worthy Class to follow those, Already up the tree. Then Hail the dear old Sophomores! In heart they’re brave and true, A jolly Class from first to last, All Hail the “White and Blue!” —Jennings Christopher.
