Quick, grab the stick and give her a twist. Whew! that one arm driver, Gordon Lundquist. We zip to a parking place, screech to a stop. We're cordially greeted by Bonnie, the Belle Hop. Outside the building we see a Ford. Tis Schwarzmiller at the Rationing Board. The car is worn out; the tires are thin, Chewing gum patches hold the inner tubes in. Then a flash races past the local tailors. Why look! It's Phyllis chasing three sailors. She’s in the lead but to her grievens. She's being rapidly gained on by Betty Stevens. We want to journey to the country But there is no one to take us. When up pulls a taxicab guided by Gil Makus. As we reach the country, a loud explosion we hear. Fear not, says Gilbert, that's Byres slaying deer. But being in a hurry we look at our list. Next is Bob Gordon, the famous Neckerologist. But as we are going to another planet soon, We leave Bob and his girl gazing at the moon. Since on Pluto they are rationing candy bars, We'll see if they sell them on the planet Mars. And since we're hungry and our trip was long, We stop at a hash-joint run by Winnie Armstrong. In the joint, working as one of the cooks, Emptying bottles, is our own Don Brooks. We'll race back to earth for one last glimpse Of that class of 44, a bunch of simps. But through these days of bitter strife, Beverly Pellerin still remains a housewife. As we step from our ship We hear a cry inhuman. 'Tis the leap year call Of our class mate June Newman. The only place from earth to the sun To buy root beer is from Louie Peterson. Louie is the dealer and a front for the rest, For in this job Bina the Brain is doing her best. 20

Strolling down the street leading a mangy cur, Comes the queen of society, Bessie Gallaher. But last on the list for us to degrade is Muriel Thompson, who remains a house maid. And if when you die, you go below, By the speed of the train you could tell That Prentice and Ulrich are stoking coal On that one way trip to-----------LAKE STEVENS. P. U. W. P. Class Will We, the class of 44, of Lake Stevens High School, County of Snohomish and State of Washington, in a condition believed to be of sound body and mind, do make, publish and declare this to be our last will and testament.

To the world in general, we leave as follows: Winnie Armstrong gallantly leaves her light step and airy manner to Mike Michelson.
