ig gfocwlcadf of 39 This, my Triends, is a broadcasT From The Class oT '39. And since iT's To be The lasT one, We wanT iT To be Tine. We seniors have The hardesT Times OT anyone in school. We work and slave And Try To behave: Our Time we musT noT Tool. ln agriculTure The boys learn how To reap and sow The seed. They musT waTch The crop, So iT won'T be a flop, And hoe ouT every weed. And when iT comes To Civics Class WiTh all Those horrid TesTs, We heave a sigh And say, Oh my, These Teachers are such pesTsl And SaTeTy Class is noT so safe As iT's cracked up To be: We all musT beware For erasers in air Make a Shiner noT lovely To see. BuT Public Speaking Class, you see, Makes up Tor all These woes: lT's The liveliesT class, YeT The hardesT To pass, For we musT always be up on our Toes. When we come ouT wiTh The band To sTruT, Across The baskeTball Tloor, All eyes are Turned, WiTh envy They're burned, And we hear whispered commenTs galore! The Library is supposed To be The quieTesT place in school, YeT a mouse one day To The desk did sTray, Making Walker TorgeT ThaT rule. IT The Senior boys are looking Tor wives, To Home Ec. class They go: The girls are good cooks And noT bad Tor looks, BuT They're always aTTer The dough. Well, This concludes The broadcasT, Once more iT comes To an end. We all haTe To leave, BUT iT's no use To grieve For we have made many a Triend. -J EANE WEARLY
