CLASS SONG By JUNE S'rA'rzr-:R Our school days now are past, We've reached our goal at last, We had so much fun, But life's just begun, As we'll learn, now that school is o'er. You And But The kids are all so swell, teachers just as well, now that we're gone, memories stay on, Of the wonderful times we've had. One thing we'd like to say, We have enjoyed our stay, But life comes and goes, as everyone knows, And this is our big day. Good luck to all of you, We wish we could stay too, We'll have much to tell, But we bid you farewell, We're the class of '49. PLANS FOR THE FUTURE Lou Ann Allen ........ Russell Andes ......

v The higher we climb, the better the view, so climb though the rocks be rugged President ........... RALPH Janvrs Vice President ...... Russsx. ANDES Secretary ....... CAROL Sul: Snzcu-: Treasurer. . .Aucx-: Esc:-nswanmnm-:R Colors ........... BLUE AND WHITE T'was the day before graduation, And at school that day, Everyone was rehearsing, What he was to say. The teachers seemed sorry, The students acted glad, But deep down inside, They really felt sad. They looked at the blackboards, The desks and the chairsg The time's getting closer, When fortune will be theirs. Today they remembered, The swell times they'd had, The happy ones, the sad ones, The good ones and bad. Each student was different, No thoughts were the same, Some were thinking of vacation, Others were thinking of fame. They'll always remember, As the years roll by, Each and every classmate, At dear Old Ross High. Take Lou Ann Allen, A sweet little lass, She has beautiful hair, And she's the tiniest in class. Or handsome Russell Andes, A bright sort of boy, He's very intelligent, And studying's his joy. Then there's Allene Barker, Who's so tiny in size, She's very, very, pretty, With beautiful brown eyes. And Eileen Bennett, Whom we knew from the start, She's going to college, And take up art. A lad named Chuck Bober, Who played' on the team, Was our newest addition, And has hair like a dream. Now, sweet Jeannette Burns, ls a very nice gal,' She's very efficient, And a really true pal. For the ping-pong champion, Gordon Buttertleld's his name, He's the tallest in class, And his steer brought him fame. Verldon Campbell was known, For his wonderful manners, If awards were given, He'd take all of the banners. Our prophecy for Vera Endress, Is that she'll be the first bride, When she walks down the aisle, Ollie will swell with great pride. We musn't forget George Engel, Who's a very nice lad, Farming's his ambition, He'1l make the best to be had. She has beautiful dark hair, And her freckles look sweet, Alice Eschenbrenner is a girl, We all like to meet. For the class musician, We choose Jack Fox, He'll soon be famous, With his own band box. For the humor of the class, And all the funny stuff, We choose the one and only, Our friend, Horace Huff. There is a boy who always smiles, He never has the blues, You're wondering who it is? His name is Karroll Hughes. Now Earl Hoover is a quiet lad, With never much to say, But let him be with classmates, And he's really on his way. Everyone knows Ethel Irwin, And the fine editor she's madeg When she goes to college, She'll surely make the grade. Ralph Jarvis was a football player, He took it in his stride: Also president of the senior class, This gave to him much pride. Her handwriting is beautiful, Her papers look so neat, Her name is Emogene Kimble, And she's very, very, sweet. Earl Lakes was always in trouble, Or seen running around in the hall, But his athletic ability, Will make him remembered by all. Her disposition is wonderful, And she's just loads of fun, Geneva Lewis believes in, A good word for everyone.
