What the yearbook said

Alma came to us from the Lincoln School from which she graduated in June 1923. Alma has found her time so taken up between her books and her boy friends that she could find no time for athletics. However, don’t think Alma isn’t a sport, for those who know her find that she is a good one. Alma doesn’t know what she will do after graduation, but she will probably go to work until she meets the right man. Oh! sure, she will get married. She doesn’t look like an old maid and although she says she never will get married, we bet she does. Every class has its Alma Mater, but every class isn’t lucky enough to have an Alma Martha.
