Class Song
Tune - Missouri Waltz

We are leaving Huston High. "We Finish to Begin".
We must part from friends and teachers who have helped us win 
The goal that we worked for, to bring an success
Through four long years of joy and happiness
Dear Old Huston High School, how we hate to say goodby, 
Though we're leaving: Thoughts of you will never never die: 
The future we're facing
Our thoughts ever racing
To happy days gone by.

The days we spent in Huston will be cherished memories 
In our hearts they will sing like happy melodies,
We'll treasure forever the schoolbooks and fun, 
Huston is best, after all is said and done.
We are graduating with our thoughts both clear and true 
Of the joyous times that we have shared with all of you; 
To teachers so true
To classmates so dear
We sadly bid adieu.
-Nellie Kematick, Emilie Newell


Class Poem

Four happy years, we worked and planned 
To reach our one great aim,
And though we have succeeded
Our thoughts will still remain.

The Class of '50 always true 
To dear old Huston High
To loyal colors, white and blue 
May they forever fly.

White carnation as a sign
Of parting from friends so dear, 
And to our teachers. we bequeath 
The best of luck and cheer.

The day we always longed for 
So rapidly drew nigh,
And now that it is really here 
We hate to say goodbye.

But we must all look forward 
That our motto we might win 
For high school days are over 
"We Finish To Begin."
Emilie Newell
