What the yearbook said

Cortland or Corty as he is known by his friends, is a tall, dark-haired, young fellow with a pleasant and plentiful grin. He was always athletically inclined, although lately he has leaned to the social joys of the stage. His actions in school are quiet and law abiding (?), while those outside are vigorous and industrious. He is, altogether, a worthy and upstanding member of the class of “36” and well worth knowing.
