That is our folly
For rather than sad we choose to be jolly.
=K= for Kicker Sleds. They arrived last December
And furnished good sport for every class member.
=L= is for Luther--Burbank we were told,
Who started the Protestant reformation of old.
=M= is the Mascot that brings us our luck,
And we surely need him to combat Sevens' pluck.
=N= for "Noblesse Oblige," our chosen class aim.
Though sometimes we slip, we strive on just the same.
=O= is Old Girls' Party, to which we escorted
The whole seventh grade; a gay time was reported.
=P= is for Pageant we held Columbus Day,
To tell how brave sailors to our land made way.
=Q= for the Quest the whole class did make
When told to make rhymes for our Tatler's sake.
=R= for Radiators to which we all swarm
To dry off our stockings and get our toes warm.
=S= is for Silver, that coupled with blue
Is the symbol to which we shall ever be true.
=T= is for Tourney 'twixt the White and the Gold.
But 'tis fought with balls instead of swords bold.
=U= is uniform. When that badge we wear
We must look to upholding Northrop's standards so fair.
=V= for Valentine party, which the seventh form had.
Favors, verses, and dancing made our hearts glad.
=W= for Winter Sports. There's no fun more thrilling,
Whether skating or sliding or in the snow spilling.
=X= is unknown, so why trouble with it.
We'll leave it alone and not wear out our wit.
=Y= is for Yells. We give them with vim
When sports are on foot in our lower gym.
=Z= for Zipper boots, our greatest delights.
Zip off the last minute and fly up two flights.

SPORTS
Early in the fall the sevenths and eighths had a number of baseball
games. Although the sevenths tried very hard, they were always
defeated. However, spring is coming, and they may have better luck.
