What the yearbook said

That shy and demure little girl, who delights in spending her Friday afternoons in S2 exercising her lovely little fingers in fascinating United States History, came to us from the Gooch School. She is planning to enter Burdett College in the fall, but, Carolina, don’t let the history bug get you. And just as a little hint, don’t spend your time wishing you were just a little mite taller, when you should be doing the inevitable home work.
