There’s where we made friends, each with the other; There’s where our old hearts are longing to roam. That’s the place where we learned what we know, Day after day in the fields of thought — No place on earth do we love more sincerely, Than Old Medina High, the place that’s loved by all. —ERWIN RICKARD.
