26 THE ABRAM BREEZE THE BUSIEST THING Oh, the busiest thing we have in our school Though it has nothing to do with our books Is the long green table which stands in the hall. The white lines are not just for looks. As soon as the recess You surely will want to watch out For some are trying to get the paddlesg They go through the door with a shout. bell does ring They still like to play though the class bell has rung. They act worse than beasts in a stable. You've guessed itg the busiest thing we have Is our green and white ping pong table. Joan Trask '53 CHAMPS We the girls at Kingfield High Demand a chance to speakg For we think our winning games Is more than a lucky streak. TheBangeleygirls have tried three times To put us in our place, But we just struggled with all our might And played at a terrific pace. Ernestine Dunham '53 THE THING Oh, the man that was walking down the beach Should have gone the other way Then he wouldn't have found that fatal box That has changed his life since that bright day. He couldn't even give it away To a solitary persong None would take the dreadful thingy To you let this poem be a lesson. The only one who finally took it, And this is on the level, Was a man who lives in a scorching place, A red eyed, horned Devil. So if you want to go to heaven When you're strolling around the sand The only thing you should pick up Is some honest and handsome man. Eleanor Parson '53 ATHOME I like to stay home at night? It gives to me such delight To think I have a home, And can dream of the unknown While I sit by my fireside bright. Joan Trask '53 ,nl 470K-iv
