What the yearbook said

Everyone knows "Jackie" as the small, smiling, wisecracking kid who plays shortstop during the baseball season, and couches in girls' homes during the winter. Remember him as "little Willie" the messenger boy in our Senior play. Jack is one boy who gives the "profs" plenty of worry as they try to still his boyish enthusiasm. He refuses to say what he will do after graduation but knowing that he will probably need it, we wish him the best of luck in whatever he does, and we say to his future opponents, beware of that smiling countenance because with it is an iron will.
