What the yearbook said
Albert, known intimately as “Albie”, otherwise as “Clarkie”, hails from the Gooch School district. He has certainly made a record worthy of that institution. The Tennis Team, the Orchestra, the Debating Club and the Football Squad have all felt his presence. But his most remarkable achievement is the fact that he has scored eighteen degrees in the Euclidean Society without even knowing that he was a member. Directly after his advent to the orchestra, Mr. Wilson became famous. Albie’s main characteristics are studiousness, wit, and reticence; his favorite expressions “by cracky”, and “oh blooie”; “ditto” is his favorite answer. He is interested in golf, hockey, skiing, swimming, writing, eugenics and sociology, but he is positively not interested in women.
