ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

SENIOR CHORALIERS

by Audrey Kupperstein ’39

Hall High, we drink a toast so trueAnd pledge our loyalty.

Our alma mater, white and blue,We sing a song to thee.

Where’er we wander in our dreams,No matter what befall,

We’ll keep thee in our high esteemAnd oft thy name recall. — Chorus

For many years you’ve stood supremeIn glory, truth, and might.

To you our friendship e’re will gleam;We’ll try to serve thee right.

Your name on high we’ll always praiseAnd bring you naught but fame.

We’ll sing to you through all the daysThis well deserved refrain. — Chorus

CHORUS

Hall High, we salute you,You’re nearest to our hearts.

While banners fly you’ll shine on highWe’ve loved you from the start.

With loyalty and mightWe shall lead you on to fame.We’ll always fight, fight, fight,

For dear Hall High.
