What the yearbook said

A five feet, four and one-half inch beauty specimen stands out among our class with her golden red locks. Because “Kay” is so good in almost every sport we often wonder why she didn’t indulge more. “Kay” hopes to become some big business man’s secretary. It is quite evident that she will succeed in whatever she undertakes.
