At the age of five we started our learning. All for the good, of course, we were turning. Six grades passed and the seventh did come, Which brought the three schools in one lump sum. Good times were had at Central that year, But going to High School brought a new fear. The country kids who came in town now, Made the biggest class the school can allow. Now our freshman days were funny ones: We idled the big wheels just tons and tons. Although we were green and scared that year We struggled through by the teachers' steer. Remember the J-Hop, and dying to go? Yet we had to wait for the next year to show. We, the biggest class in sight, Were led by a good leader, Alden Knight. The summer passedg then came the fall: The girls less homely, and the boys more tall. The sophomore year brought new things to cope. President this year was kid Darrell Pope. At a skating party we had that fall A good time was had and enjoyed by all. Remember the Barn Dance sponsored by us? And all the hay when they made a fuss? Our junior year! Ah, two to go! Our faces now are all aglow. Tom Richards led us to the end With many big events to contend. Almost Eighteen was our junior Play. One of the best the people did say. Around towards Christmas came the flug Then a snow storm so we missed some school. The J-Hop decorations soon begang A girl's ambition was to catch a man. The scene was clouds high in the air, The music was wonderful and did not blare. The Senior Prom was in honor of usg Some didn't go but wished they had thus. This ended our wonderful junior year, Which to us will always be very dear. In rolled the fall of '47. ' Many did think they were in heaven. The fellows were using their razors then And the girls were regarding them as men. In senior election Norman Tatroe was it To lead us through to the best he saw fit. Our senior pictures were taken this fallg If you don't like the first, have a recall. Remember a photo won't make you look thin Or iron out that double chin. They take just plainly what they see If it be Betty or Peter Loree. Spring Again was put on this year.
