Our class has music, too, you bet! And Earl does catch us in his net: I-le plays and plays and we all stand Around and listen to his band. This Helen Foote is quite a miss, We all would like her for a sisg She's popular as she can be, For she can shake a wicked knee. Now Doris Koelrnel is quite short, But just the same she is a sport: When days are long she never minds, But works along at what she finds. And Ethel Kohl is always gay, Though clouds and troubles bar the way She works so hard that we all think Perhaps at us she'd like to wink. Our little Tony is the one Who gives us all just loads of fun: She laughs and giggles quite a bit, And often, gives us most a fit! Pete Moore is always on the jump, He learns his lessons in a lump: But then that bluffer is so wise, That he would conquer half his size Ruth Zuber, independent one, Just keeps us all upon a rung If she her tests should ever fail, l know you'd hear the whole school wail. That William Withey is a boy Who gives his class just lots of joy, He works so hard and is so busy We wonder why he is not dizzy. Now Beulah Newton is so tall That she stoops low when in the hallg Her marks are always up so high, We fear that they will reach the sky. So Genevieve Woodruff now must learn To slow her steps and watch her tums, For she does walk so very fast We don't know if her feet will last! Then Eleanor Wipperman is inclined To be quite clumsy but refinedg She is a wonder at baseball And hardly ever takes a fall. She is a talker beyond a doubt, But never indulges in a pout, Because she knows that that would be A thing disliked by you and me. I5

Of course, our president you know, And he, l tell you, is not slowg He makes the Hnest speech hy far, Whibh makes us wonder where we are. But when our Von, whom we adore, Begins to laugh and laugh some more, It seems as if he'd never stop, - When he gets going like a top. Now Margaret Bley is very bright, And she, I'm sure, is always right, lf there are questions hard and deep, She's sure to know them, while we weep. Fred Bauer is a light indeedg He works and shines and takes no heed Of worthless things, hut looks ahead, And success he'll have, for so 'tis read. Christina Moritz, so they say, just talks and talks through all the day. She cheers us up and always smiles When days are blue and stretch for miles. Next Elmer Agle must be classed Among the best, with visions vast, That lead him onward to the top Where he will then decide to stop. Now, Evelyn Brocksopp is the kind That you would always like to find, She cooks and sews and studies long, Oh, she's a peach, if l'm not wrong. And Dorothy Kitching needs mention here For she's a worker, never fearg Although quite quiet in her ways, She'll be remembered all her days. And next, two of a kind appear, So quiet always that we fear Perhaps some day they'll forfeit speech And then how could they ever teach? These two you surely now have guessed: They're ina Marsh, so quietly dressed, And Gordon I-lartloff, wondrous wise, Who sees all things with open eyes. Loretta Koch is quite a girl, Her lips in scorn do never curl, She's happy as a day in June, And often gazes at the moon. Arlina Minekime you spy, But rarely hear her speak or cry. She's quiet, too, as you can tell, But we all like her very well. I4 Din'-P-v..,,.- J L IAQ' :I f pg 'fn v,,,i Zi Lil 5 hi' fri-Ligg 'I E, ' --r...'s-i

While Elinor Williams is in school She loves to play and run and foolg But even so she is not slow, Because she's never filled with woe. Joe Quinn is proud as he can be, And also bright as you will seep He does get bored and wishes fate Would tell him why he is sedate. Now this one is our best athlete, Sheis fast and very light on her feetg She's very tiny but that doesn't matter, For Max is always there with a clatter. john Platt, they say, is very vain, And often when he's in the rain He thinks perhaps he'll spoil his wave, And then he does begin to rave. E This clever Laura Whittemore Should have been mentioned long before She's small and short, but knows a lot For such a wondrous little tot. When Wilbur Minnick starts his fun We come to listen to his pung He makes us laugh and on we go To Hnd what else this boy may know. And last but not least comes Teddy Cox, A boy for whom there are no knocksg He's as mischievous as he can be And fills us all with lots of glee. Of course, this boy is handsome, too, And always up to something new: With wireless telephones he does stunts And gets the messages that he wants. And now 'tis time that we must leave And 'round our future trials weave Success that will not fade away, Because we've learned it every day ln lessons taught at Hamburg High, That we have many things to tryg And we will only win the race When we have learned to set the pace.
