MEMORIES OF A SENIOR The class of '40 is near its end, We'll soon bid fond adieug So now we pause to reminisce And share our thoughts with you. Although these thoughts are numerous, We can only tell a fewg Since these have been so dear to us We know you'll like them too. They start way back in '36 When we were freshmen green. A vote led to a hayride- The answer to our dream. From there we jump to sophomores, We thought that we were hot, But when we gave a dance it proved To be a sophomore flop. They called us ucockyn our junior year, But of course we paid no heed, And we proved we'd been badly misjudged When we put on the play called Speed Our Junior-Senior dance we planned To be held in merry May, Twas lots of work and lots of fun And a huge success, they say. 7 And now we're seniors-at last-our goal! It's taken so short a time To live these last four years at school, But for Arlington we'll always pine. We have so many memories That'll always linger nearg They've meant so much to all of us, Especially in our senior year. The banging of the lockers, The ringing of the bell, The never-ending classes- All we remember well. At parting, as we say good-bye, It's hard to have much pluckg But at least we say with unshed tears- So long, good-bye, good luck! J oy F itz-H enry Rita Jeanne Brown Page Twenty-four
