-li-. sa. 1951'gg9?i,Qf-S------is F. Senior History October the fourth on Registration day Our Freshman battalion was formedg Our Senior advisors paved the way As Sargent's walls we stormed. Victory brought on parties and fun Until that woeful day When we found our battles had just begun l With No Cuts leading the fray. Came the command, Pass in Review. We tried all our best to display As we took firm hold of the red so new On that memorable Move-Up Day. Then by the Senior Troops we met And engaged in a Red, Red Tussle Red Hats and bunnies as hostage we kept And how those Seniors did hustle! But at Training Camp we worked as one Sustained by peaches and peaches When jackstones, bird-walks, and baseball were done, We swam among the leeches. To Cambridge headquarters we returned Of army life we were weary Our swords, caps, and guns we burned And changed into jesters so cheery. Heigho! There Seniors, let's be friends At the Little Show -we'll stop! Let's forget the torment and make amends 'Tis Sargent's night at Pop's. The jesters held a merry ball 'Twas at the Somerset Fun and frolic was there for all A night we'll never forget. I Our carefree days were over Golden Sages wise we became Dignity and wisdom moreover Make up our Senior name. Although we now are leaving Cur school, our camp, our class We'll have our memories abiding Which no others can surpass. 4 P. P. AND I. R. '31 I, l yi 4055 c g - A g. l i761 ii --.-.-.

Ha' S T- -E. ess 'Senior Song We greet with loud acclaim the honored name of Sargent Until the chorus swells the echoes far and near, While the glorious fame that to her came has made dear To our hearts the name of Sargent. But though we swear allegiance fair, dear Alma Mater, By Nineteen Thirty-One has our loyalty been taught, And we praise the best of classes, Spirit none surpasses, Hail the name of Thirty-One. Chorus Fairest of the years that surround us Spirit of the best life can hold, Reverently we stand now before you Thinking of the things you have toldg Eagerly we search the hidden future, Unafraid we face the tasks ahead, Trusting in the knowledge you gave us, Cherishing the Words you've said. Oh Thirty-One, Keeper of the goal that we strive for, Guide and teacher of careless youth, You have taught the right things to live for, Keep our hearts awake to the truth. may U51
