To be called Myrt, fairly makes her hair curl, But won’t she make a pretty Indian girl. “Tardiness is bliss someone said, And from the looks of things it might have been Fred. The “Osgood belle” is our queen, The boys all say she’s on the beam. She can’t be passed without a smile, She’s surely a friend that is worthwhile. This boy is sure to bring us fame, That’s right, Bob is his name. Mary and Martha are twins at heart, You’ll be doing fine if you can tell them apart. In our high school days, she’s missed lots of fun, But she got her diploma and therefore she’s won! Here we have Wanda, to all a friend, Wherever you see her, you also see Glenn. Now this is Jane, she’s quite a gal, She’s full of fun and to all, a pal. She has red hair, and laughing eyes, A little gal that causes the sighs. They call her “Red” for the obvious reason, She doesn’t mind, she knows they’re teasin’. Buck’s the captain of our brave eleven, Coach will vouch for him at the gates of heaven. Tho’ Ed is short it’s not extreme, He still excelled on the football team. Virginia has a former’s head, She knew a mule was a pure hybrid. Esther makes her trombone sing, Just as her laugh gives the hall a ring. They call him “Sugar-Foot” in the class play, You see him at Wolf’s every day. Each class has a blond and ours is Mary, She’s already engaged, so boys be wary. When “Samanthy” zips by like a flash of steel, You can be sure it’s ‘Dick’ at the wheel. This gal Rich, she isn’t coy, Better known is “our tom boy”. Our Bill is very keen, Can always be heard if not seen. To V. H. S. she’ll always stick, Because between us and Greenville, she had to pick. If you are sad, and want a laugh, Just look for Peg, she’s quite a lass! Twenty-two

JINGLES It’s Gene at the bat, and that ain’t all, In Physic class he’s on the ball. Joan’s our friend, tall and pretty is she, Then too, “she has a pleasing personality”. He’s a lad that likes to tease, But he’d do most anything—just to please. Some North Star boy goes many a mile, To see Ann use her famous smile. This is Dot, our friendly clerk, You will always find her busy at work Milton Edson is his name, To us it’s Junior, just the same. Virginia’s the quiestest girl around, A truer friend has ne’er been found. Kenny is a sport and an athelete too, His friends are many and enemies few. A whiz at Math is our Glenn, We don’t mean Zellers—but a ’46’ man. At most everything, Wanda will pass, Oh but cures—that typing class! A quiet girl with an infectious smile, Her type of friendliness is always in style. She’s rather tall and lots of fun, She’ll put your blues right on the run. Our accompanist for the minstrel, he’s really all reet, An again on the organ, Dick can’t be beat. We wonder when Bob was a little tyke, If he started repairing his motor bike. On Sunday p. m’s. when for Dawn you’re bound, You’ll find Buck running for an exciting first down. You’ll see Mary as she speeds round a corner; That’s her right, for she helps Mr. Hoerner. Bernard is a silent guy, His faults are few and ideals high. “Fid” is a boy who’s full of fun, When he’s around the tricks are done. From six to eleven on Saturday nite, He sells his potatoes and he’s always polite. “Mary Lou! Mary Lou! Little girl with eyes of blue.” Twenty-one

Sherman’s sleepy lots of the time, It must be that New Weston clime. His model airplanes were the talk of the school, And on current events, he’s nobody’s fool. Greg’s heart belongs to Willowdell, When it comes to blondes, he does right well. Jackie has that “stunning crew”, Where there’s Ginny, there’s Jackie too, Her heart belongs to “Ellie” true, But she’s always been our good pal, too. Ruth is very pretty and neat, To be her friend is really a treat. Velma is office girl the fifth, She gives the school a lot of lift. Her happy smile, and winning ways, Makes Thelma the joy of all our days. Mary Ann has an artistic mind, A better friend you cannot find. John is our only returned “vet”, He’ll go places, we’re willing to bet. Stover’s the name, Wood Street’s the place, If you’re ready to argue, you know she’s an ace, You’ve heard a lot of the “Postman's Daughter”, That’s the fame her daddy’s brought her. Virginia is so quiet and neat, She’s surely a friend you’ll want to meet. Cletus you’ll have to agree is short, But you couldn’t find a better sport. Jim is a guy quiet and neat, As a newly acquired friend, he can’t be beat. Please, Mr. Fields, don’t trade it in, We’ll always love that pile of tin. And if you want prospective buyers, Just don’t forget, it’s got four tires. We’ve done our duty, and made them rhyme. Now that we’ve finished, we’re going to sign. Margaret Stover, Marilyn Fambrough, Virginia Pitsenbarger, Margaret Seman. Twenty-three
