What the yearbook said
Among the quiet members of our class should be listed John Ivey. This fact is accounted for by his late entrance to the class and by the fact that he desires to spend more time in his home laboratory, where he has constructed many intricate pieces of miniature machinery. His abilities in this line are to be developed in Northeastern University, we hear. If this be so, we know that his chances for greatness will materialize quickly, and we may expect a profitable future for him. We wish you every possible opportunity for a successful life, John!
