i T » MLili TIME MARCHES ON We the Class of forty-two, Because our school days now are through. Will leave the threshold where we stand To the mighty Juniors’ worthy hand. And where our paths may lead and go Within these lines I’d like to show. President Bill, no doubt will grow Tolerant of friend and foe. Editor Reggie will win her fame And glorify her family name. Eddy Curtis—school girls’ delight Will settle down—at least he might. Betty and Butch may drift apart Following knowledge? or the heart? Girls and men—of these I sing. Jack will have his usual fling, Jean, the youngest of our class Forever may be Stormie’s lass. Carol, Charlie, Mary and Bill All worldly marks they will fulfill. Natalie will still win cheers By never being in arrears. Teddy—smallest of our crew, How big the task—he’ll always do. Staatsie and Minna will have to decide As to who in the “Chevy” will be able to ride. Roy will get there with his smile And do the things worth his while. Bernice still, quiet sort of Will be doing something she never thought of. For Ruthie—art will be her goal, And many others not foretold Like Janie, Annie, Georgie and Frank, Each of these we’re able to thank For what they did in every way. And now the teachers smile and say— “Shoot if you must my graying head, ’Cause if the class comes back—‘We’d rather be dead’.” —Rose Marie Bagley

STUDENT SENATE Frank Donahue ............................... President Elsa Van Orden ......................... Vice President Olga Taraduck .................... Treasurer-Secretary The Student Senate of this year carried on the democracy of the school with great results. The Senate as a body in past years has not been too active but the Senate of this year started off with a great deal of activity and obtained wonderful results. To start off with, they voted some new clubs into the school and gave them their charters from which many happy events have occurred. They worked very hard under the able leadership of their president, Frank Donahue, to help keep this school cleaner and make it a better place to obtain an education. On the whole, the Student Senate of this year is one of which the school is proud and can thank all the members for making it as good a Student Senate as it is.
