XII-C 1950 Haddon McC'arthy Ch, XIIC is a wonderful class The best in Sydney High We 're Mr. MacDonald's pride and joy, And we keep his spirit high. I'm sure you would like to know us, So I'll introduce a few, There is Hugh MaeQuee'n and Alex MacSween, We must 11ot part these two. Mike Campbell is a real fine lad, In class he is good as gold: And even when he starts to sing, VVe wish he would sing solo Csolowj Oh Margie Smith is a real smart girl, Heir work is always done, And when she puts the books away, Vile have a lot of fun. In Allan Robertson we find a good friend, He is knvown far and wide, And even when it comes to driving a car He is always ahead by far. 7 Lest we forget, there are two Rays lVithout them it wouldn't be a good day, And along with Theresa and Mary, Our class can be quite contrary. Of the MacDonald 's we 'have three, Charlie, Carl and big Archie, NVith Clara Burns and Jackie MacKeen, They complete the Scotch of the Class of l2C. There i.s Donnie Ward our President, WlthOllt him we would all lament: And without Ron Noble and Roddy MacCarron Our classroom would be very barren. Hear that awful racket '2 It is a terrible din, But please don't be disturbed, It is just Fred Dean coming in. 72
