 SENIOR CLASS POEM In the Senior Class of Thirty-five There are thirty-eight students to describe. Each one has a personality new, Which I shall tell in rhyme to you. Ruby has made many sad persons gay— For a smile and a friendly word is her way. Joseph’s ambition is some day to be Somebody’s private secretary. When history reveals the name of Emma Ida, “Her smile made even the sun seem brighter”. To Cyril we give this attribute, A saxophone he sure can toot. In theatricals Paul Bruns is our ideal leading man; He also contributes to our famed High School Band. A good fellow can’t slip by in a crowd, That’s why we’d like to shout “Lowell” aloud. Ray likes sports both indoors and out, And he can’t find a thing to be bashful about. Charles is as peppy as he can be, With a serious touch in the right degree. Lucy can not be surpassed anywhere: Her laughter quickly disperses all care. When you speak of a heart that is pure gold inside, Of consideration for others, of course you mean Clyde. Esther wins many friends day by day, For a soft-spoken word is as welcome as May. Mazena is our best at the typewriter keys. Besides that a knack of putting you at your ease. Atlee is modest, sometimes even shy, In honors he will always rank high. With sky-blue eyes and golden curls, Winifred is one of our ambitious girls. A habit called blushing which creates alarm, Will go down in history as Nelson’s great charm. i Bonnie has friends everywhere that she goes, And a nice disposition, as everyone knows. Eyes in which lurk a mysterious shine, And a dimple thrown in, make Merna divine. At football Daniel is quite a star, He has to his credit a four-year bar. —Page Twenty-six—
