Sophomore Limericks Sophia plays the piano at night To help the movies so pretty and bright-In Orchestra or Glee Ciub she's always found. No finer girl in the country round. Vera Herman with specks so bright Sure presented a splendid sight To Mr. Burholz of the Northwestern line. When he saw her dressed up so fine. Rose Jandt is a tall thin girl With eyes of blue and teeth of pearl. Her tone is questioning when in doubt Whether to whisper or whether to shout. Of all the girls in our class, There’s one we must not pass. This is Verna, tall and pert. Whose eyes and ears are ever alert. Bernice is shy, We wonder why. Some say her hair is red. She plays and sings most any thing. Of her nice things are said. Clarence is tall, Clarence plays ball, Clarence can saw wood. But lie can't make eyes, though hard he tries. Who ever said he could? A bright eyed boy, his name is Roy. He likes the girls, you bet. Base ball he roots, Cornet he toots. They say he’s tooting yet. There was a young lady named Vi, Who oft was known to sigh For a lad named “Ceace , who disturbed her peace-We cannot tell you why. Ceona plays the fiddle, Heigho-te-dum-te-diddle. She likewise sings a bit. Though not so tall. In fact quite small, ; But still she's always in it. Of all the girls I ever saw. There’s none like Elva J. She jokes, she shouts, she laughs, she pouts, And always wants to play. Girls like Amanda are very rare. She’s nice and sweet and very fair. She braids her hair so long and fine, Oh how I wish that she were mine. Earl Knudson is quite a lad, His figure straigh, his looks are sad. His eyes are black, and penetrate The things that come his way thru fate. We have before us a medium sized girl, Whose hair is ever bound to curl. Of her grades Virginia has little to kick Because she studies until she is sick. Ned is a lad who is jolly and fat, Who is very good behind the bat. He saws and hammers very well. Of him there still is much to tell. She is nice and Sweet, and hard to beat, She hails from out the west. And all the rules, that are learned at school Olive will stand the test. Anna Marie is a fair little dame. At books she leads the class, She sings and plays, she reads quite well, In fact she’s quite a lass. Though quite a poet, He’s made the go-et Of many a joke that’s fine. He likes the girls, if they have curls; Adolph plays on the baseball nine. A fellow that’s jolly and likes his fun. I’m sure that Cecil is the one. He dresses well and looks quite neat, In fact, he's rather hard to beat.
