What the yearbook said

Ed's chief interest is engineering. Although he likes sports, his main interest is in boats, and it seems natural that Ed wishes to become a naval engineer. Many of his friends will remember him for his ability to solve math problems and for the help he has given them. After graduating, Ed plans to attend either M. L T. or Tufts College. If he continues to do as well as he has in high school, he will certainly be a success in his career.
