f FORTY NINERS We are not the type oi class To sit around and pine, For things we hate to strive for We're the Class of '49. Of course, we have our pastirnes Our parties are divine, But when it comes to business, That's the Class of '49. When asked for recitations l'll lay you eight to nine You'll always get an answer From the Class of '49. Now when it comes to too much play That's where we draw the line. No snowballs thrown at teachers By the Class of '49. We have respect for all our elders And our teachers are all fine No crooked halos or clipped wings In the Class of '49. And when it comes to comparison, There's just no class like minef' We're just as proud as we can be Of our Class of '49. Of course, we're only human And it's tough to wait on time But we'l1 be the happiest brats alive In the SPRING OF '49. --Alice Dunevant 19
