What the yearbook said

"Fred” entered M. H. S. in September, 1921, to discover that he was destined to do much more than study. In the activities of the various clubs "Freddie" always took a prominent part, meanwhile making a great hit with the gentle (?) sex, as well as keeping his name on the credit list. In his Junior and Senior years he took prominent parts in "The Dragon" and "Pinafore,” respectively, besides short plays each year. He took part in the 1924 debate with Winchester, and the Everett and Wakefield debates of 1925. You can see he’s a regular "shiner,” everywhere, but where he shines the best is behind the lunch counter, where he has been yelling "Zoup!" for four years. As far as we know this bright lad is heading for Harvard, and we all wish him success.
