What the yearbook said

Jerry, our dignified (?) class president, joined the ranks of Melrose High from the Washington School in 1928. Although outward appearances portray him as a quiet fellow, he is quite the contrary when that bump of humor — well, just question his teachers. If you are unable to locate .Jerry on a bright summer’s day, your search will not be in vain if you scan the golf links, for it is there (if lie’s not hidden by the tall grass) you will most probably locate him. Or should I give you the following telephone number, Mel.- aw heck, why give the boy away?
