81644 Ghana of 1941 Think of the fun we've had this year Of things we've done and friends we prize. These thoughts should bring back memories As we begin to summarize. George Budres led the senior classg As president he made a name, His aids were Glory, Zip, and Paulg To them a task seemed like a game. These officers were picked in style. A modern booth was used to choose The president and to decide The magnitude of our class dues. Proof of the spirit of our school Was given when an eight-car train, Full, bursting out with team support, To Traverse went and back again. The football team, cheered by this group, Subdued the Trojan team with ease. Which shows that if we back our boys, Those boys will roll up scores that please. That game was won, but to our grief, The team we really hoped to slay, The champion of the city league, Took victory Thanksgiving Day. Our Basket Bunch got started bad, And tales of losses soon grew agey g But as the season neared its ending, Our cage team's style became more cagey. Our wrestling team brought Union fame By winning state and city meets. The taste of fame, yet on our lips, Lingers like the taste of sweets. The Sandman entered our fair school, Removed the carving, and repaired The furniture throughout the rooms Wherever vandals' talents flared. No more will stockings, long or short, Be snagged and spoiled by splintered seatg The chairs and desks have all been smoothed. Silk stocking safety is complete. The Community Council, to our joy, Gave us a funfforfall program Of crafts and games two nights a week, And a dance band that sure could jam. Some hard luck hit the senior class When Mr. Voss became so sick That he was out for quite a while, Without him things just wouldn't click. A drive of loyalty was launched Throughout the halls of Alma Mater. To prove our standards and morale Surpass all those across the water. Through sacrifice and student work, They've placed in nearly every room The banner that we all adore To brighten hope and reject gloom. The Dogpatch Drag, a costume dance, Was put on by the coming grads. Loud clothes and green complexions were The style among these rustic lads. Without a doubt the junior prom Provided all with lots of fun, Its formals and its mellow band Made us quite sad when it was done. A comedy, and a success, Was American Passport, the senior play. The acting was par-excellence, With profits as one says, taint hay. Commencement ends this crowning year And skims the cream from off the crop, Our seats soon filled by others who Are on their way to reach the top. I23'l
