abniep 'Posf 1942 Irvine Muse they call him Irene , Some people think that he is green, But I have an idea they'll change their mind, When Irvine in the White House they will find. Alexine Muse, that talking girl, Always goes places in a whirl. They think she goes to town to windowshop, But she doesn't she Hirts with the cop. The most popular music in the land, Is heard from WHO in Nancy. It's Mary Owen and her jug band, This everyone seems to fancy. She's blond, she's cute, this fair lass, She was best all-around of the '42 class. Virginia Pitman is her name, I see her now in the Hall of Fame. That friendly smile, that dark brown eye, Of Beatrice now I prophesy. If oft we wonder what she'll be, Just ask Turpin and you'll see. Velma Prather is now a hula dancer, She used to be a great romancer, And after Harold has recooperated, It'll be Prather and Albertson inc. Milford Ragle the boy of fame, Will never, never stay the same. For every time he goes for a ride, All the fair ladies are by his side. Garvis Simpson longs to fly, To .be an aviator by-and-by. But something's coming he doesn't expect, He'll be an opera singer yet. Do you remember Virginia Sowder, There never was a Senior prouder. She'll advise you if she can, How to catch and keep your man. There's Toots Todd, she's out on bond, Reformed? Yes, like the Devil. They just can't hold that strawberry blond, She means to stay in Frog Level. All four years at Nancy Hi, Lucille Tucker said she wanted to fly. Can she handle a plane? Why it's terrific, But to-day is her first try across the Pacific. It's Nancy Yanders now I see, She's still as happy as can be. Although she married long ago, She has never been to Reno. Now, everybody listen to me, I'll let you know the secret. Edna Taylor's on WLAP, And oh! how she does sing it. Now Jackie Turpins heart is set, On marrying Bea, his little pet. But if Bea should change her mind, .Iack'll be a bachelor left behind. Today she travels around the world, Making straight hair into curls. A beautician we always guessed her, It's Pauline Tarter, Shirley Temple's hair dresser. All done with all of Hitler's tricks, He's dead and gone, poor soul. Now things will be in a fix, For Eustis Weddle's now in control. Noble York has a Gary Cooper face, And now he's taking his uncles place. He's the best actor of his age, Today he 's performing on the Broadway stage. -DORA DECKER

sump 'Po-:ff Cldfdd W2Z6i,7A8Cy You know Juanita Brock of N. H. S., Or you've heard of her by now I guess. All day long on stage she toddles, For her skin dresses she now models. Yeippi ki yi ya, is all she can sing, And every day it's the same old thing. Gertrude Burgin never takes a chance, She's way out west on Circle B Ranch. You can talk about Burkett if you want to, He didn't make a failure. He's doing what, I knew he could do, Acting as double for Robert Taylor. They're drafting women in the U. S. A. Edna Mae Collins is on her way. Sergeant Via is her over seer, Now she calls him Sergeant instead of Dear. It's Iva Lee Flynn Taylor now I see, As still can this be prophecy. We thought she lost that last beau, Instead, she married long ago. Gerald Dick is now a lonely heart-breaker, He's left all his hopes to his maker. But if Eternity finds him in the soot, We hope he'll find his rabbit foot. For Leonard Flynn that likable creature, We prophesied president, but he turned to be a preacher. He saw some nice fryers in his neighbors yard, So now he's fighting the Devil with no holds barred. He has tried everything, both good and bad, Paul Godby's just like any other lad. Two years ago he joined the Navy, Now he eats what instead of gravy. Time has flown since '42, But there's nothing he could do. For Haney doesn't run a blacksmith shop, He's just a grouchy old motorcycle cop. Cordia Hargis is now settled down, In the good old state of Alabam. She didn't go horseback or go through the air, She just rode a taxi from here to there. Now don't mind that Arlean Huff, She'll go places on a bluff. In the future l can see, A contented old maid as can be. We've always known that Johny Lane, Would make a. success in the boxing ring. Joe Lewis, Jr. was in a doze, Then Johnny socked him in the nose. He's now a farmer not a mechanic, To see him milk is just a panic. To know the secret won't do any harm, That fellow is Laugherty on a Faubush farm. Josephine Minton was our queen, our star, We thought it couldn't happen, but she's right thar, Now she sits on the judges knee, For she's his wifey, don't you see? Roxie Minton is now a house-wife, She never believed in playing dice. But we'll be waiting to see, What kind of grandmother she will be. Now you can take that Willard Minton, People thought he couldn't succeed. But today he is hitting, For the famous National League. Onedia Muse now I praise, She is gentle in all her ways. As a member of Congress she gets her fill, For now She's working on the Neutrality Bill. Clara Muse as we all know, Did want to be a cow girl so, Now she lives on the lone Prairie, Just Clara alone and her cow-boyee.

E15ni6o 'iPosf C1454 KPLOCLEZ This is the day and time when every one is saying something to knock someone else. Now listen carefully while I try to tell the inside facts about these dignified Seniors and Faculty. Mr. Higgins, you bragg entirely too much about your wife. Mrs. Higgins, wake up, you're not in dreamland. Mrs. Warfield, if you wouldn't always be calling for a speech or a book re- port your students would like you better. r Mr. Hislope, do you really think that you'll become a great man some day? Mrs. Barlow, why don't you practice what you preach? Mr. Barlow, that smile of yours is getting old, why don't you try changing it for awhile? Mr. Carter, why take the big head. you aren't the first man that was ever elected for Representative. Mr. Molen, you have tried to look like Clark Gable for a long time, but we notice you are not married yet. Mrs. Harris, if you are as crabby with your husband as you are with us I pity him. Mr. Walters, why do you make your F. F. A. boys do all your work? I didn't think a school teacher was supposed to be lazy. Juanita Brock, you are so still we hardly know you are around. Gertrude Burgin, you giggle too much, why don't you just laugh out loud. Leonard Burkett, you will have to grow a lot before Uncle Sam will take you into his family. Edna Collins, why don't you change your subject? We are getting tired of hearing your talk about George all the time. Dora Decker, how do you expect to get anywhere if you blush every time anyone speaks to you. Gerald Dick, why don't you put a little life into your speech? You talk en- tirely too slow. ' Iva Lee Flynn Taylor, why act so big, there have been Seniors before. Leonard Flynn, you should eat more vitamin A to keep your knees from shaking in English class. Paul Godby, you needn't bragg so much, you're not the only artist in the Senior class. Lawrence Haney, we have been wondering if you will ever grow up to be a man. Cordia Hargis, you shouldn't ride around in that taxi so much. Didn't you know the driver was married? Arlean Huff, if you are intending to be a nurse you had better get out of your bashful stage. John Lane, why don't you try eating more, maybe you can gain a little weight.
