What the yearbook said

“Don” has carried himself and his faithful trumpet (which is as big as he) through the scientific course. Whenever Don is in band uniform, it isn’t unusual to hear a voice either from the sidewalks or grandstands remark “Who is that cute little kid with that cornet?” Keep it up Don, and we shall be expecting to hear from you at Brown.
