Lawrence High School A theatrical star was bouhd to be- come. She starred in a play that ran for a month — But the crowds ran too, I have a hunch. Robert Dufur, tall and blond. Of growing flowers was quite fond. As a grow r er of flowers he’s had no luck. For he is driving the Lewis’s laun- dry truck. The next in line is Lillian Parker. By her good-natured smile we al- ways could mark her, And even now she is not sad — You can see her grin in the tooth- paste ad. Robert Egeland, Eggie fcr short, Fooled with radios quite a lot. He discovered a spark that reached the stars So he could flirt with the girls on Mars. Beatrice Emerald among the girls Was famous for giving waves and curls, But now she has the craziest no- tion — That she’s a mermaid waving the ocean. The brightest boy w:s R L. S.. But what he’s now you’d never guess. Instead of testing oils and fats, Roger Savery rakes clams on Woods Hole flats. Eetty Wells’ name we did inscribe On the honor roll tablet in ' 35. Now on boxes of tablets her full name she seals With instructions inside to take after meals. Benjamin Tobey is teaching Latin — We all surmised that this would happen. For twenty years, no more, no less. He’s been right here in L. H. S. Now Olive Peck, demure and quain t, Was always thought to be a saint; But now she juggles cocktail shakers And spends her evenings cutting capers. Joe Silvia on an ocean liner As a chef could not be finer, But sad to say, his daintiest dishes In calmest weather feed the fishes. Of Helen Fish I am in doubt As just to how she did come out; But this much about her I know well — She had her face lifted and her arches fell. They say our class was really the worst, So who would think that from it would burst A first rate poet, Thure Blomberg by name, Who wrote love lyrics that won him his fame? Anna Douthart, tall and fair, Is now a crooner on the air. Her classmates all, without a doubt When she starts singing, tune her out. Ernest Cardeiro’s ambition was high— What do you think? He wanted to fly! Now he flies through the air, but how, if you please? He’s the daring young man on the flying trapeze.
