THE ILLMAN SCHOOL Hidden Marg Therffs magic-dear-in everything, In a baby's laugh, in a gypsy's ring, In the blue-gray dusk at even fall, In a lilac spray, in a lark's clear call. But only those with knowing eyes Can see beyond each faint disguiseg And only those with a kindly heart Are able to glimpse that world apart. Page Sczfcnry-cighz i CJ DOROTPiY NELLIS

THE SPAN-1932 'Eben I Would fBe A Genius' If I only knew How leaves grew from dry branches, And what made people smile, And why your eyes with soul light burn At the sight of a cool, green fern. If I only knew How the sun painted the sky at evening, And what made people cry, And why you seem so far away When you climb your green hill to pray. If I only knew How flowers grew from bud to full bloom, And what made people die, And who put the stars in velvet night, And where they went in dawning light- Then I would be a genius.

THE SPAN-1932 Law! Will and Testament THE Class of 1932 bequeaths to next year's Seniors its sublime faith in last minute cramming, its strong belief in Santa Claus and fairies. and its humble attitude toward children's questions. THE SPAN Staff of 1932 bequeath to next year's staff, with joyful eagerness, what is left of their patience and perseverance, and the mangled remains of a dream of having all the copy ready on time. The Officers of the Class of 1932 bequeath to the Ofiicers of next year's graduating class, the persuasive charm of a Southern lady, the ability to collect class dues, to decide on rings, and the compelling fog-horn voice necessary in conducting class meetings.
