What the yearbook said
“Dot” has been with us only one-half of our High School career. She came to us from Malden High the first of our Junior Year, and because she was so quiet, we hardly knew she was here. But once discovered, her smile won her many friends and she now declares that Melrose is more friendly than Malden. However she may be found in Malden at least two nights a week. There’s a reason. Just at present “Dot” is very busy with Rainbow. In May she will be Worthy Advisor of Malden Assembly which will keep her very busy for a while. She wants to work next year, and with her good marks, especially in bookkeeping and law, we know that she will be a success. Whatever you do, “Dot,” may the best of luck be yours.
