Elizabeth Curtin n vice president

Helene Burke for our records was

Edward Mileski for finances which
were very rare.
Soon came the happy month Of May.
Bringing to us our first Class Day,
Dressed In our color we did come
Decked in yellow everyone.
And from our places along the wall.
We watched the rest enjoy the ball.
The year rolled round, and with 1t
came
The joy Of wearing the Junior name.
Our officers all had proved 20 fine.
We chose them again to keep VI IN

Our second class day brought keen
delight.
And our color proved surely q pref

Another year passed quickly by,
The time for u to be Seniors drew
nigh.
When in elections our opinions

We know their work was not In

A one Of the happiest times Of all.
