What the yearbook said

When he came to M. H. S., his stage talents were soon found out. He is a member of the Masque and Wig, and helped to make "The Dragon" a howling success. One would think that his life work was picked out for him, but, personally, we think he would make a good Bolshevist because of his bald (?) head. Although his school activities keep him quite busy, he can find time to run the Dodge one day and repair it the next, and can take in every dance in town. Wesleyan will get a strenuous man and a good one.
