What the yearbook said
A quiet, pleasant girl with a friendly smile, Eleanor is liked by all classmates. Studious and a hard worker, she takes a keen interest in High School activities. History Circle meetings claim her attention every Wednesday afternoon. She is a firm supporter of all sports, but football is her favorite, as she never misses a home game. Eleanor's ambition is to be a secretary, and to prepare for this, she intends to further her education at Katherine Gibbs. Her excellent school work will assure her of much success in the future. Our good wishes are all for you, Eleanor.
