9+t Plaice oj . . . We are the class of '44 Shall 1 tell you any more? Yes, I shall relate to you. Some things old and others new. I shall take us one by one, Don't be too glad when I'm done. June Albert is quiet and a little timid too, But she'll accomplish what she sets out to do. Here is Borchers, his first name is Joe, At all the girls he likes to crow. That Bornhorst girl whom we all call Kate , Now has her heart beat at the Great Lakes. Doris is the girl who is in nurses' training, Her popularity with internes is certainly gaining. Jean Brockman is as quiet as can be, But a very nice girl as we all can see. As for Faith Christian, she's just about it. She's always happy and full of grit. Doris Christman's the one and only girl Who takes her Kelly for quite a whirl. Here's Harry Coatney, a star on all the teams, He's also tops with the girls, it seems. Next in line is Charlie Creager, Who for knowledge seems rather eager. We have in our midst a boy named Gene, He's very seldom heard, but always seen. Another one of our class is a girl named Delight, She's an honor student and really all right. Odell Greer is this gal's name, but you'll see, That's not all it’s going to be. Then comes Jim Grushon, and we all will agree, That a very nice kid he seems to be. Is it time to pull the curtain? If so, say when . Yes, it's no one but Gustin, whose first name is Glen. Here's a very tall boy whose first name is Dale, When he meets a new girl it's, From where do you hail? Next is Yvonne Jarvis who is happy and gay, With teachers and students she has her own way. That Doris Jolliff, it occurs to me, Does well in the office, as you can see. Donna's fond of music, fond of eating too, Fond of dots and dashes, and everything that's new. I guess Mildred Lowman is next on our list. When you want anything done, she’s there to assist. That Vera Lucas is really O. K. And likes the boys in a sly sort of way. Marie Magee who helps Miss Greene, Is always busy whenever seen. Parker McGee is such a studious lad, He thinks for himself. We wish we had. Here's a girl I think you've all seen, In case you've forgotten, her name's Billie Jean. Bob Myers, you know him, he's just the kind, That's as happy as if he had his right mind. Next is Ross Owens a very nice guy, But when around the girls, he seems to be shy. Wanda Roberts has a ring, we see, Given to her by a man from the NAVY. Who is this? Why, his name is Bill Russell, When serving you lunch, he's always in a hustle. She's very tiny and her name's Elaine Shell, After the boys, she goes pell mell. We have another Shell but Vera is her name, She is true to Grushon, and always is the same. Here’s a quiet person, our Dessie Sims, She likes girls, but better, hims”. Southard's the first senior into the service to go, He'll soon be fighting our common foe. If you've heard of anyone sleeping in school, It's our own Paul Spaite, but he's really no fool. Jerry is quiet and full of fun. She says her heart has never been won. Next in line is that Stevens boy, Who thinks a teacher just a toy. His name's Thomas Thomas, either way would be right, Don't mess around him, or he'll fly you for a kite. Here’s Weldon Tilton, a swell classmate, He's always prepared and never late. Jack Treon's the guy with the Crosley car, It may look odd but it's got the power. Phyllis Tuttle's the girl who got the first ring, A certain Lieutenant is her idol and king. Frank Weldy's a rather quiet chap, But always ready for any mishap. Welucky's the name, she's from Pennsylvania, So if you're in a hurry, don't let her detain ya . Last but not least is a guy named Howard, He may be quiet but he's not a coward. Any doubt about me, one can easily answer. But it can't be published because of the censor. — Shirley Christman
