What the yearbook said

El came to us from the Roosevelt School with the rest of that illustrious class. Her flashing smile and quick “Hi”! made for her many friends of each sex, and her loyalty to them has won her still more. Her intriguing posters have decorated our halls many times during these four years, showing her bright, patient, and artistic nature. However demure she may seem at times in class, she is full of pep and enthusiasm for anything she undertakes, and thoroughly enjoys a good time. Keep up your smiles and “Hi’s” on life’s ways, El, and we know you will succeed.
