What the yearbook said
“Ken” hails from the Highlands, Ferdinand St., and parts unknown. He wandered down to us from the Franklin School a few years ago, as a mild, little fellow. He has changed some since then, all right! As a freshman “Ken” joined the Debating Club and the late lamented Radio Club. While a “soph” he was honored with membership in the Hi-Y. We no longer looked upon “Ken” as a little fellow in his junior year, but as a sophisticated man of affairs and as such the Masque and Wig also received him into their membership. This year our hero broke out as the handsome, dashing, daredevil president of the “Masque and Wig”, handsome without either the Masque or the Wig. “Ken” is a terrible heart-breaker and even the little freshies fall for him.
