Gchrin I've really enjoyed talkiny ever :lc times. Wo, the class of 1940 A group of twenty-eight, After four long years of study Are about to graduate. Strive today for tomorrow never cones. Is the motto that wo chose. And for tho flower of our class We took the pure white rose. The choosing of our class colors Was an easy task 'tis true, Eecause for once wo all agreed On the silver and tho blue. The High School Board and Faculty Have allov od us many pranks. And for all that they have cone for us V c give our sincere thanks. And now for mombers of the class I know not hew to start, I guors I’ll just drav; out a name And write what's in my heart. First cones a charming little niss Who fits in anywhere. Ucliaster is a studont, too But always ’..-ill do her sharo. Bill, tho beau b runnel of the class Is string on grades and ball and track. And in his way he's don his lot Bring honors to tho Orange and Black. Eugono, our singer of renown, Ho studies r.s his grades will show, ut if there's any fun afoot He's in it too, v c know. th, our little country lass s ri ;ht 3nart with hor books, Shc s popular with all hor class Arid should be with hor looks. Junior, now that 3chool is o'er Will work out- on the fanr. And while roaming round the fields alone Will sing Carols” as a charm, Alice joined with us two years, She's studied hard and quietly. Has done her part in each small task’ Assigned her as the days went past, Voryl never missed a chance To play or run or jump, And to heat hir. in an argument We really had to hump. Lucille, though seemingly quite shy Can torment teachers, my, oh ry.' But still they like her for her wit As she has always done her bit. Now Edwin is a Rio lad Our tallest one wo fear, And so to us he finally came To 3eend hi3 senior year. Now Doris Dexter, we were afraid. Would settle down as an old maid. But sr iling eyes and cherry laughter Makes the swain3 ccne running after Then Dale is one who is always about. Whenever thoro's fun to be had. From teachers to schoolmates, he rates with the-:: all, Around him you couldn't be sad. Lois McNeil is the next on the list. Her rod hair v e cannot deny Hakes her a girl that really is fine Although a tiny bit shy. Kenneth Lawson is one of our quiet lads Who has studied hard all the way And as ticket manager of every- thing He has just been givSn full sway. R ( ( ' r? � ;V Genevieve our little blond Js quite attractive, too And when it comes to selecting beaus, She really does what's new. In Harry we find a handaone lad ho is ju3t a woe bit shy. But if ho worlds hard all the time Ilo'11 overcome this by and by. Josephine is our smallest one V ho has very dark long hair, She's rather quiet and a littlo shy But uc know that sho will always try. Maurice always rushed to school He did not fool his time away. Because in contests ho did 3hine By winning in spelling the othor day. Carol has been mentioned before But just in a minor way, Her fingers were agile on typewriter keys. And a certain young man she always did please. Raymond, we remember for his love of play- ing jokes, He drove a Ford V8 to school In which he brought us, as a rule, A lot of Rio folks. Now for Beth whose page-boy bob Has caught many a strangers eye. In her classes on 0. H. S. V.'e have often heard her sigh. To Kennoth our machinist-fine Wo offer many praises. And hope that by his winning smile He'll profit many raises. In busy-body Cleo Sloan We find an expert cook, And in her work as librarian She could find us any book. Now Richard has a Fiymouth car. He used to have a truck In which he hauled us a)i a round When we were out of luc'c, In Russell v e find a chanting' lad Whose neatness we all e.V'?7 We hope becuuse of gentle airs He'll never have to hurry. Hjalmar i3 a handy lad To alv;ays have around. He never bothers nuch you see And always nix s with the crowd. How Foster, is a gentle lad For all his boxing skill. We like to see his none in print Cause he doesn't boast at ell. Bob Hnnnam is our curly head. In class he like3 to sleep And when it co:nes to dressing up Ho really does look neat. Now you havo seen us as we are, ’Ye hope you-will agree That v;e make up the finest class That you will err seo. o o II i cknamo s—Seniors Y illlam Adams.......-.......- Bill Kenneth Anderson------------- Mopoy Beth Bryant------------------ Jerry Alice Carlson---------------- Noisy Dale Carlson----------------- Duck Raymond Carlson-------------- Hay Doris Dexter----------------- B.-idget Richard Dozer---------------- Dick Harry Sllison----------------- Bon James Fo3tor----------------- Zeko Ru3tell Gohring-------------- Russ Robert Hannum---------------- Bob Veryl Hev itt---------------- Grouchy Goncvicvo Holmes------------- Gon Junior Holmes---------------- Diz Hjalr.icr Johnson------------ Speedy Kenneth Lawson--------------- Kenny John Lindwall---------------- Ling Edv.'in Loquist-------------- Raspberry Doris UcUastor--------------- Mickey Lois McNeil------------------'Mabel Sugone Rusk------------------ Rat Cleo Sloan------------------- Gcrty Carol Sornbergcr-----------;— Babe Maurice Suydar.i------------- Morty Beth Swanson----------------- Sv anny Lucille Wiles---------------- Lucy Josephine Wyman-------------- Jo,: Miss Theobald (Adviser)------ Mary Annie 2 (Jet set to Jump. x Down the home stretch.
