What the yearbook said

John came to M. H. S. from the Lincoln School in 1932. He is a great little athlete, but unfortunately his small stature has prevented him from participating in high school athletics to any great extent. His cheerful smile and winning personality have won him a host of friends. John is also a very talented young man in music. After graduating Johnnie intends to step into a business career in his father’s establishment.
