You always topped us in reports, But won. too, great renown in snorts; And best of all, we can’t lot pass Those pews way back you filled at Mass; This year our publication’s new; Its birth, proud Seniors, belongs to you; Though all wo Sophs wish you could stay, The world awaits your parting day,-And when it comes a,nd you feel sad. Recall some things to make you glad-That unsuccessful rush at nine That kept you in to pay the fine; That long prepared-for test in trig, Whose average turned out not so big. The time you didn’t memorize, Then called on first to your surprise. Recall how low your spirits sunk, When you carried home that awful flunk. Rejoice I Ypu're free from all scholastic fuss; Wow pass school worries on to us.

Now, as we move nearer the sophomore year we feel that we arc a step closer to being upperclassmen. But oven though wo arc freshics , we-want you to know that throughout the year we shared your joy as well as your sadness in everything in which you participated for the glory of St. Matthew's. As our seniors, you will always have a place in our hearts and memories. So farewell to you, the Seniors Of dear St. Matthew's High You have the prayers of the freshmen As they bid you all goodbye. The Class of ' 5V Marianne O'Brien Joanne Shinners James G, Kuhna WINTER PORTRAIT The lowering clouds gave portent A gale began to blow; The leafy trees their boughs low bent. Beneath the falling snow. The quarter moon snrhled bright that night Upon this silv'ry scene And touched all Nature with her light Like crown jewels for a queen. Dorothea Koldys. 52
