MARGARET BIGGAR. 108.’ 10D To B or not to B That is the question— Will the students so wise and smart of 101) End up where the Einsteins arc resting? Though we ' re often regarded as dim¬ wits and dummies. The verdict will never reveal us as mummies. No Sir! Not with five Bills to lead the way. The light will shine on the path some day. With Cecily Weir prepared to drive. And Geraldine and Carol buzzing like hives. Frank and Norma will not think of naps While busily engaged in studying the maps. Don and Jack will raise a clamor. Because they ' re in charge of pliers and hammer. For a healthy journey, with no one ill, Kirk will distribute the daily pill. And when we pause for cokes on the journey, The hill will he footed by Gordon Tierney. We drive all morning and for a siesta. We are lull’d to sleep by Shirley Kresta. For safety first at all cross-roads. Joan and Boh will he observing toads. Phyllis will read the rules for driving, She won ' t stand for any conniving. Doris and Adeline will cleanse the bus, And Yal isn ' t the kind to put up a fuss. As we drive on with the sunset fading. Louise and Anne start serenading. The light dawns bright at our destin¬ ation. Anil success is obtained without hesitation. I- ' or the students of BID will rank high in learning bile others sit hack with admiration and yearning.
