What the yearbook said
This gentleman hails from the northern part of Melrose. He learned his ABC's at the Warren and Franklin Schools, and was graduated from the latter in 1921. While going to the Warren School, "Kiley” showed his ability as a scholar by skipping the third grade. He has been skipping ever since. As an actor he has made his mark. Carl has also hung out his shingle as a man of odd jobs. While going to the M. H. S., the credit list has been honored with his name from time to time. This boy fairly eats up Latin and announces that he likes it. Carl expects to go to Wesleyan University, where he will undoubtedly come into the lime light as he has at M. H. S.
