. Farewell to the Seniors To the forty-eighters we say farewell, And to the public we're oroud to tell Of the nineteen Seniors from Port Byron High And how we'll miss them by and by-- They've done their duty and on they go Toward new horizons-some fast, some slow. We'll miss Joan Ecker as she plays the piano, Nancy Zwolanek, too, and her singing soprano. Two shy little boys, Alan and Dick Wells, As they settle themselves in new hills and dells. Then therels Bev Nose and Donna, but oh, golly, gee! what they'll ever do is way beyond me. Jim Barker's red hair we surely will miss, And Bob Wa1nwright's sweet habits to woo and to kiss Walt Bull never shayes his mustache so cute, Carl Orr his carload of girls tries to suit. We'll miss Robert Dailey and Sue as his mate, And what will we do without Don coming late? We'll miss Elinor Larson, the quaint little farmer, And Dolores's smile that sure is a charmer. There's Jim Smith's jeep so lively and quick, And a quiet Senior by the name of Dick. And next year how will our movies seem, Without Lloyd Dailey to set the machine. Last, but not least, the basketball star, Bodney,by'name, and known near and far. All goking aside, we know we will miss You eniors next year for that or for this. But our wish for you is the greatest success, Much joy, much wealth, and much happiness.
