THE I-IIGI-ILANDER Page Tfwenty-tfwo The Very Class of '32f f 'Twas on the twenty-first of May A great calamity Befell three girls of Western State To write the history. They knew not how nor where t' begin They were lost as in a storm. But after much discussion and thought They decided on ballad form. So listen now, my classmates all, And those historians here, To outstanding events we have to tell About our high school years. Our class began with Seventy-tW0. Our scholars' wit displayed From the first superior list of seven Honors by four were made. And, as was the yearly custom, E We elected officers three: ' Glenn Allen, Kreilick, and Dorothy Sprau Served very capably. But even though we'd just begun, Weld several athletes, too: Wiith Lornie Russell and Dibble We helped the football crew. As Freshmen We were not so green We showed what We could do, With aspirants in music, plays, In basketball and football, too. But after our exams were o'er, We no longer as Freshmen were known And the next September we eagerly took The name Sophomore as our own. We chose our leaders well that year, With Moulton and with Moss For Vice-President and Treasurer, And Chuck Dibble as our boss. The Sophomores made the orchestra We heard some students say, For many sweet strains of music From study hall rose each day.
