What the yearbook said
Here is our handsome, nonchalant, and gentlemanly Beau Brummel, esteemed of men and beloved of women. Don is always seen smiling as though he hadn’t a care in the world, and though he has, he carries them like a philosopher. He came to this “aged pile of learning” from that wild and wooly section of our fair city known as “Vinegar Hill”, having absorbed his early education in the Washington Grammar School. He is accomplished in several directions. He can probably handle an automobile better than anyone in the class, (one hand too). He is also possessed of considerable dramatic ability as everyone knows who has seen him tread the boards in Masque and Wig productions of the last two years. Whatever he does as his life work, we wish him all kinds of luck.
