What the yearbook said

Art stumbled into M. H. S. from the Washington School in 1931. He has stumbled through his studies ever since then, and has discouraged more . than one stout-hearted teacher with his ready wit. Arthur has gone out for all sports that he could, and stuck to them all. He was rewarded , by becoming the first-string goalie of the hockey team. More power to you, Art.
