What the yearbook said

One of M. H. S.’s most conscientious students is to be remembered as one of the foremost woman-haters in the class of 1931. He is a quiet, reticent fellow whose curly hair has caused his bashful nature much confusion in the presence of pursuing females. Lorin is headed for M. I. T. and we wish him the best of success.
