class Poem Twelve short years have come and past. And now we realize this is the last; When we stop and think, tears will fall. Because each of us has a different call. Some will marry right after school. While others will follow the military rule; For others, college is another big first. And for some professions, such as a nurse. I ' m going to write about our class of ”59. ” Could you ever hope to see a class so fine? We ' ve had our arguments and disagreements too. But next year we ' ll laugh, like most classes do. Mrs. Wood has been most kind to us. In her we could always put our trust; She ' s been with us through our four years. And to all of us she is most sincere. Mutt, sport ' s hero and football king. Adds every week a new girl to his string. The girl who is known as the quiet type Is liked by all, yes, it ' s Betty White. Nancy, the beauty of our class. Has a personality none can surpass. Bobby Kellam is so sleepy in the morning. Don ' t be surprised if you see him snoring. Jill likes to take time to dream. Wedding Bells will be her next theme. The practical joker is Charles Driunmond, Look out for pins when you see him coming! Jane Harris, our class vocabulary genius. Is known for her wit and also her meaness. A nurse is what Elizabeth wants to be. She ' ll top her goal, just wait and see. Leonard Watkinson, who burns up the track. Is certainly a Romeo, that ' s a fact! Peggy Taylor, a talkative girl. Will have Longwood in a swirl. Our basketball captain is Doug. Scott, He ' s known by all and liked alot. Sandy Dunton is the brain of our class, I ' ve never seen a test she couldn ' t pass. Grey Metzler is another Romeo, An expert on the court, that we all know. To write poems and dream is Kay, They express what she wants to say. Our quiet boy is Eugene Wheatley, He never fails to do things neatly. Now Ted Evans is the just the opposite. He talks faster than I can knit. Shirley will be in training next year. And small children she ' U be near. Barbara, a girl most sincere. Will be a secretary in maybe a year. Bill Evans studies the least, I guess. It ' s not his will to study for a test. Esther is one of the nicest girls You ' d ever expect to find in the world. Bill Paynes likes to dance. But beware girls of his wicked glance. Bonnie, editor of our annual staff. Gets the work done on our behalf. Ted Shreeves works in his spare time. Wouldn ' t it be nice if some saved a dime! Taking an active part is Suzanne, If she can ' t do it, nobody can! Bobby Young, although he ' s tall. Is always ready whenever we call. The last of our class is me, no less. So I ' ll close but maybe it ' s for the best. Adelaide Wray Poetess
