- Three Cheers For The School On The Rhein (midi file) was written around 1973 by Mrs. Degan, band director at BAHS at the time. The melody itself is from "Stars and Strips Forever"; we hope to recover the words/text which were by Mrs. Degan. Eric Allen ('76) kindly contributed this midi file.
Kate McMahan Farabaugh (1975) knows the words for the first verse:
Cheers, cheers for school on the Rhein. For her we'll do and for her we'll die, When our boys come crashing through, We'll show her we're always true!"
