What the yearbook said

“Frank” stands very high in the estimation of everyone in M. H. S. as an actor and songster. He took leading roles in “Pinafore,” “Mikado” and “The Goose Hangs High” and performed much to the delight of the audiences. “Frank” is also our class “big boy,” but he seems to forget his height when choosing his “certain one” for dances. He is usually forced to “stoop to conquer.” “Frank” is set on being as big in a business way later as he is physically now. Best of luck to you, “Frank,” for a successful career.
