What the yearbook said

Ardel’s engaging personality and friendly manner have won her many friends, and her keen sense of humor and ready wit have enlivened many class periods. Her interests lie mainly in the field of sports, especially in football and hockey. In these sports, we wish her luck with her “right guard” or her “bud”-die. To Simmons she is bound. Then we all wish her success as an air-stewardess.
