Show CLARK, the SENIOR'S BEST MAN, has a record nicely earned; Academies need such as these where Fortune's wheel is turned. Good men are always needed where Proud Honor has a mark, And examples always heeded come from Athletic CLARK. The SENIORS have an ideal in their President McKAY; Good Fortune puts the high wheel where Good judgment leads the way The track meet has the emblems on the White and Purple Sign, And McKay at each assembly brings to light the genuine. CRITCHLOW, the Student Body President, stands high. We're never slow to face the foe while Critchlow is nigh. With Critchlow to back us, in the hall or on the field; No rivals dare detract us where, discouraged, we must yield. WATSON as a SENIOR, has the Weber's main initial And one main son with me and you and every school official. The "W" is prominent on every "scroll of fame," And WATSON'S view stands dominant while WEBER holds the claim. The SENIORS have another claim that PYOTT represents. Just clean your eyes-observe a name as high, at all extents, As any worthy pageant in a prudent, healthy band; For PYOTT is an agent that we students all demand. The Juniors hold their popularity with BALLANTYNE, No President so rare as he, has made their valor shine. The happy Junior-body are inclined to all commend Nothing cheap, half-done nor shoddy while Chief Ballantyne befriends. And PORTER holds his colors as a JUNIOR bodyguard, Where every "R" in Rah! Rah!! Rah!!! Reserves a Rich Reward. The Prize Presents a Porter whom the Juniors love to Praise All applies to nothing shorter than a King spelled ninety Ways. BUTLER is a JUNIOR with a well-earned record here; No beggar's king or prince or dean can find his equal near. The Fakirs never bind us while Butler's on the ground; For BUTLER will defend us and we grant his golden crown. There is another Junior who is surnamed CRITCHLOW; And his name upon this paper will recall the hammer throw. He worked hard in the track meet for his colors, Red and White; So lent his "little grain of sand" for class honors in the fight. ROBERT JONES, a JUNIOR, is the Athletic bard, Who comes alone to tune our energetic drawing card. Draw in your healthy muscles if you have a healthy face; JONES is wealthy while he rustles and your challenge meets all grace. The TOONE that's rich and mellow names a happy Sophomore; A second year good fellow whom his classmates all adore. While Sophomore's have "Seconds" on their track meet, honeymoon; No lofty scores yet reckoned have been plied without the Toone. RICHARDS is the other SOPHOMORE that bears us out. We hitch unto a brother, and we bore without a doubt, A hero and a soldier in our arms with willing hands; And we're ready yet to shoulder any bill at his demands. In naming men of honor in the Athletic meet; We can't forget a Sophomore who brought his class to their feet. As the good horse in the mire pulls very hard, and oft'; So in the school athletic meet did the Sophomore named CROFT Our flag has nobly floated and its colors still remain, Where Honor always voted and success presents our gain, We wear no cheap cosmetics where dull fashion bids us pray; We speak here of Athletics, and the school we've built today. |
