. s wr ' ..L...g.,..-.-,., . ..,g . -M l Lucy J ohnsonslived in the Pleasant Hill district, going to Pleasant Grove eight years. In four years of High School she has had three Alma Maters: Pleasant Hill, Strasburg, and Raytown. Let me tell you, she is the righthkind of a forward for a basketball team. Muriel Hassig attended grad-e school at Mt. Washington. Muriel has gone to four high schools, Northeast, Central, Paseo and Raytown. This calls the roll down to Helen Mitchener, who started at Troost school in Kansas City. She came to Raytown and started in the sixth grade there. This completes our circle of seventeen and our records are ready to set down in the History Books of Raytown High High School. WE SENIORS Did someone say that WE, were green, A Freshman class, young and serene? But who could they initiate, If we had not been there for bait? Molasses held our feet like rope, To some, they gave a taste of soap. So naughty must we THEN have been We all went through the spanking machine. As Sophomores it was our fate To help them give, instead of take. And this we did with mighty zest, CWe'd learned before, to give our bestj. A Junior is much more mature And walks with footsteps, quick and sure. We entertain the Seniors, grand, And study lessons to beat-the-band. But now we're Seniors, tall and wise, And see the rest through knowing eyes. We've made our plans for future years, CSome leave the school, with hint of tearsj. We've worked and studied four long years, Are piled with work up to our ears- With book reports and Senior plays Old work must be with us always. We've had our fun, we've had our tears, We've had our hopes and had our fears, And we are ready now to leave The task to others, I believe. -Helen Mitchener 'fl I' , .s I ,ill ii?
