Glass Poem I 968 Roosevelt, farewell, as we take our last walk, Good-bye, to one and all. We dare not erase all the things we have learned, We'1l hold our heads high and stand tall. Together we've traveled a very rough road, And regretfully the end is here. Through honors and failures, we all have trod, But we'll continue our lives without fear. Consider the past when planning your future, Think long, hard, and clear. Remember the errors and mis- takes you've made, And evaluate your goals from there. That last lingering glance we hesitantly take, Of the halls we so long have filled . No more, bustle about, No more, shall we have that great thrill! shall we hustle and So, weep not classmates for chances gone away! See what the future holds! We are not ending but beginning a job, So walk forward, be brave, and be bold! ?

Good times, bad times too, after we leave our school. We will 'try not to close our eyes, we will fight, with our might. To be, something that we can be proud of, Somewhere, you might hear about us, somewhere! Now we start our road, Yes, now we have to go, Twelve years ending, some more to start, Teachers--we thank you from our heart! We'1l be, Someone! Somewhere! .p,4,efl4 ,Dffffff2Q'

Glass Sang I 968 fTune: To Sir---With Love NJ Those good old days of telling tales and dodging bells are gone, But in our Hearts, we know they will still live on and on. But how do you leave your friends and all the fun and joy we have shared? It isn't easy, but we'll try. We've had dances and picnicsg we have had such a ball---Now our future calls---The world is ours! The time has come, for closing books and bidding teachers farewell, And as we leave, we know that we are leaving a school that is swell, A school that we have come to love, a school where many good things we have learned. What! What can we give you in return? lt is hard to believe that our four years here are through Roosevelt we'll miss you---To Roosevelt, ---With love . . . Those fun filled years have hurried by! Why did they fly away? Class of 68 , we always knew that we would leave one day. What took the place of freshman fears? And looking forward to our sophomore year. Oh, how the years have gone so fast! We have weathered the course, we have tried to do our very best, To the junior class we leave the rest! From 68 ---with love! Jwfkfef AYMM Wa! Wi af MA
