What the yearbook said

Allow us to present five feet two of sunshine, pep, and vitality. For her size Dottie certainly has done enough for a dozen! She has proved herself to be a second Kate Smith, (voice only!) by having the lead in three of the school’s operettas. By the way, we have noticed that Dottie gets A-1 service in the lunch-room from every section! More power to you, Dot!
