Young Clayton Horn was just simply born To trip off the light fantastic, He’ll dance night and day at the Stoffel cafe, Bernice Windt is his partner gymnastic. Now Marion Brune’s a dealer in prunes, Pickles, parsnips, and also persimmons; Ray Smith and Ralph Quast are exceedingly “fahst”, And are said to be death on the wimmins! Washington Lacabanne works a moving van, Financed by one Billy Lum; Adele Kleinklaus grows plants in a hothouse; Carl Miller performs on the drum. Joe Johnson and Harry play melodies airy Upon their old saxophones; Gardner Judah sells books, gets by on his looks; Jack Hall peddles drugs for Sloans. Evelyn Cuneo got slightly looney, so Dorothy Nelson’s her guard; A chef is Bob Healy; at typing now really Ruth Sellman works most awfully hard. Dick Fuidge climbed high, he now flies in the sky, An aviator is he; Sam Slavin, a waiter; Jack Rhodes is his greater, The guy in the dress suit is he. A dealer in fish is the boy called Paul Fritsch; Rodney George sells apples beside him; Henry Tschopp tumbles still, and Bert Wolfsohn the pill Is a dentist—but still why deride him? Back on the farm, far removed from all harm Are Charles Heller and Stafford Briggs; Selma Lasky debates, Carl Schmidt plays the fates, He tells fortunes at all of the jigs. George Grunig plays golf during all his days off; Leland Crichton plays soccer yet; Marie Haub is a nurse, Ruth Chambers is worse, For she is a bold suffragette. Fidencio Barona sells steak and bologna; And Alphonse Beltramo delivers; Frank Daily’s a major; Ray Edlin, we’ll wager Invents new attachments for flivvers. Page Twenty-eight Polytechnic

Sigmund Virag has a terrible drag; And Joe Hummel runs him a close second, In politics also is Lucille Shapro; Fuller Crooks is a common old deck hand. Reba McNamar (and no one can blame her). Is dancing as you all expected. And Young Harry Frank fell so hard he was rank, But they say Dotty Meyer objected. Now, Norman McFarland draws pictures too darlin’, A painter is Ernest Purcell; And Beatrice Blair treats the scalp and the hair; While Winifred Bashford’s a belle. Ray Keegan’s slick dome makes the tea rooms his home; M. Remington plays the oboe. Alfred Orselli and Georgie Ghiselli Are, commonly speaking, just hobo. We hear Theron Wight is trying to write; Joe Vivaldi plays baseball, of course; And Muriel Donelson and Gertrude Donovan Break hearts without any remorse. A1 Weinberger stars in Shakespearean bars; Frances Olsen in charity’s busy; Tom Graham sells shoes, G. Pyne reports news; In the chorus Dot Thiele makes ’em dizzy. Malcolm McCurdy, a prizefighter sturdy, Is challenging Adolph Gschwind; While Jesse Levin and Leo McGinn are trainers— How will this thing end? Dorothy Dreusike makes wonderful “moosic” Upon her piano, I hear; And its young Jimmy Smith she’s stepping out with, And he calls her his own little dear. Clyde Trudell is a lad who’s gone radically mad Over Bolshevism and such; A1 Jensen’s his aide, Helen Dierks is the maid, That inspires these two geezers so much. Margie McCracken once tried to blacken A hat; and now she’s a painter; Grace Winter tried acting, and now she’s enacting Macbeth; and her’s pretty good, ain’t her? Page Thirty Polytechnic
