THIS SCHOOL TEAR This year, when back to school we came; Things were certainly not the same. First of all we had a brand-new school; Many new teachers and a brand-new rule. Then football season arrived with a bang! We didn't so so well against the Bombay gang. One poor young fellow broke his leg, But he made a quick comeback, like a good egg. The juniors and seniors to Canton did go; When planning careers, we were told to go slow. The shorthand class held a tea; It was quite a success, so we see. About the election, the seniors did debate, Ike's side won, and it wasn't the work of fate. The school, an election did hold, Ike won again, so we are told. Then came Book Week, with an assembly too: The juniors put it on; they had a lot to do. On December 4th, the seniors had their play. It was very, very good, so we'll say. They put it on in Hopkinton, too, It was quite a success; now, we're telling you. Up came basketball season with a feeling of zest! They boys worked hard and they did their best. Then a radio play the sophomore did present. And during the Christmas party the faculty did relent. The grade school, an operetta had. And boy oh boy! Were we ever glad! One night the high school held their Varsity Dance; And everyone came to skip and prance. They sang us a song, oh so merry and gay! We all had fun; it was nearly like a day. Then came vacation, whoopee! We had a fine time, we all agree.

One morning during role call, A voice from a box surprised us all. Our P. A. system was working now. And when it first began, we jumped, and howl There was a square-dance festival held in Cornwall, Where our students learned to dance to the Canadian call. Then came the faculty-varsity game, The faculty were good, but we best them just the same. Next the juniors presented a play “Ghost Wanted, a mystery, was good, so they say. The Phys. Ed. classes presented an exibition, Which proved that our students are in top condition. There was trampoline and dancing and tumbling, All went smoothly and there was no fumbling. Oh yes, two of our girls made ALL STATE CHORUS. Their names? Why Judy and Gert, of course. Up came Easter vacation, Oh good! Most of us rested, as much as we could. The band will have a concert and attend the festival in May. Now, we re working hard on the pieces we re going to play. The Junior-Senior Prom will also be held in May, We 11 have to work hard, but the fun is the pay. Now we ve summarized the year, Very close to the deadline, I fear. ANN SWIFT POST GRADUATE
