What the yearbook said

Anna’s mother knew that her daughter was destined to be a second Mlle. Lenglen, for at the early age of two she found her dancing around the floor with a fly swatter; and lo and behold! in her freshman year at Melrose High she captained the school tennis team! Only we who know Anna realize what a sweet alto voice she possesses. She was in the chorus of both “Pinafore” and “The Mikado” and she also plays the cello in the orchestra. Anna always did love to study, and in her senior year in the subject of home nursing she gave the class much amusement through her witty remarks. To tell the truth, most of us consider Anna rather a tomboy. She always excelled in sports and her mother claims that she should have been a boy.
