THE CLASS ANNUAL OF '07 T A TOAST TO -------orH SEMOR GIRLS--------------------- You may cheer for your school-famed beauties, And the gay-eyed Junior coquette; Your carbon Lizzies and Jessies With home-made lashes of jet. For the sprightly and gay college widow, ()r the red-rosy Freshies you've seen; But we’re for the girls in the meadow Who’ll cheer for the Gold and the Green. There’s Signe who throws all the baskets, And Clara who wants things just so. There’s Buckley who cuts all the capers, And Rheberg, who moves, oh so slow. There’s nifty blonds and sweet brunettes, There's girls of every mold, So here’s to the ’0? seniorettes, The girls of the Green and Gold. TOAST TO ------------ THE BOYS OF ’07. --------------------- Here’s to the boys of the ’07 class, Whose honor in school none can ever surpass. Whose glory in many a foot-ball game Showered on South High athletic fame. Whose merits in base and basket-ball, too, Never concluded with a true “Waterloo.” In Latin they ever did honest work; And riding a pony, you know they did shirk. In Manual Training they carved and polished, And all pranks in Cook’s class they quickly abolished. With Westerson, too, they loved to joke, And answered him promptly whenever he spoke. They treated us girls like gifts from heaven, That's what they did—“the Boys of ’07 ’ With them we’ve traversed “per vias rectas,” And who do you think could better direct us? South High, ’tis said, is very proud. And now with joy exclaims aloud— “ ’07 Boys” are the best ever seen, Hurrah for 07! The Gold and the Green! Myrtle Olsen,

On January 19 the girls defeated the Hudson team by a score of 39 to 2 and another victory was gained when they played Stanley Hall, the score being 14 to 10. South girls completely overwhelmed the St. Paul Central team in two games. The score of the first was 29 to 9 and that of the second 50 to 6. They next defeated the alumni by a score of 27 to 2. The most important game of the season was played on March 2 2, when they met the girls from Central High. The teams were evenly matched, and after a hard fought game our girls came off victorious with a score of 15 to 13. This game decided the championship. On the team were two players, members of the “07 class. They are Ruth Erickson and Signe I.arson. Nellie Loberg is also closely associated with the class, being a “IV Senior. There is good material left for a team next year, and we hope that Miss Ring, who was chosen captain for next season, will lead her girls on to attain the same standard as the team of “07. —Caroline O.
