Class Poem Slowly the minutes are ticking away: The time of our lives is fleeting. We're stepping into another dayg A new horizon we're greeting. The minutes, the hours, the days, and the years Have all too swiftly flown, And mingled with laughter are traces of tears As we realize these moments are gone. We fought each battle and conquered each fearg We shared all our joy and sorrow. United we stood from year unto yearg United we'1l face the tomorrow. Undaunted we'll move toward a shining light- The light which makes success. Unerring we'll walk in the paths of rightg To the world we'll offer our best. And now we don the cap and gowng Our sheepskins we receiveg And now we lay our studies down, And sadly we take our leave. But the Class of '51 never can sever Our hearts from the school where you find us, For the sands of time will hold forever The footprints we leave behind us. CLASS CCLORS CLASS FLOWER Blue and Gold White Rose CLASS MOTTO We Hy with our own Wings l13l
