SENIOR HISTORY Should you ask me whence these people, Whence these youths of speed and daring, Who they are and what their deeds are, I should answer, I should tell you- Listen to our simple story! Several moons ago in autumn Came a little band of Freshies Fearful, curious, as the deer are. Ventured forth among the hallways, Looked in awe upon the Seniors, Wondered who and what and wherefore, Knowing nothing, but most hopeful That our little band would prosper. All of us who are now present, Many others who have left us, Were among our Freshman brothers First we gathered scrap for vict'ry-- We collected heap-big heap Oh, we gathered in more that day Than all other schools around here. For the school we gave a wedding Mock it was and very funny-- Little Herbie bore the ring, yes, Bobbie Steffen was a flower girl. Johnnie Kline and Lois Wells were Wed that night by Kathleen Thompson In that year we had two sponsors- Margaret Allison first we had, then Mrs. Henry came to guide us. Thus we spent our Freshman days here In the halls of Port Byron High School In our second year of High School We returned with vim and vigor Which we spent upon the Freshmen How we made them bend and bow and Carry all our books to classes. Then for them we gave a party Thus Hinitiationn ended. In this second year of high school, Minges was our worthy sponsor. For our Chief that year was chosen Mose, the quiet, the unspoken. Fame and honor got we that year For in magazine subscriptions Johnny Eib surpassed all others For our Third year we returned then Full fledged Juniors, Upper Classmen.
