What the yearbook said

Four years ago Henry received, from the Roosevelt School, a sentence to four years’ hard labor within the portals of M. H. S. He came here as a quiet and bashful Freshman, and since then has made many friends by his sunny smile and even disposition. Henry may be seen at most athlete events, either as a participant or, as an onlooker, being a capable athletic himself. He has played on the baseball team of M. H. S. for three years. He has no definite plans for the future, but he takes with him the best wishes of the class.
