Is the group s intellect, outstandings — quite so. In classes they study, oh, a few pranks are played. All seem to expect that, though tempers are frayed. Shakespeare and his cronies take the limelight King Arthur ' s brave knights are a bit of all right. Miss Zook and her Thespians, a jolly fine lot Quoting from Shakespeare, Macbeth and Hamlet. I say, old man, the question arises For the uncommonest jest do they ever give prizes. In Prof. Yoder ' s class an odd thing occurred Robert Brinklow made believe he was a bird. Ah yes, my good friend, it s easy to say This class is what you might call okay A problem? Not at all for you may readily see I ' m awfully fond of this class, 55. I thank you, dear sirs, for being so kind As to answer the question I had in mind. The answers you ' ve given are pleasing On this topic the class of ' 55 . ' Sue Farrell
