What the yearbook said

Art came into our midst from the Washington School in ’32. His cheery smile and sunny disposition have won the admiration of his class-mates. He is a lover of sports and has participated in many school athletic events. His pet hobby is listening to Fred Hoey’s broadcast of the baseball game ; he can predict the pennant winners and can tell you the life story of any big-league ball player. He is undecided as to his future, but we know that Art will be a success in all his undertakings.
