What the yearbook said

“Riggsie” came to us from the Mary A. Livermore School where lie had attained high rank in his studies, a record which lie still upholds. When elders are present, “Riggsie” is most sedate and quiet, but get him among his friends and he acts natural. Lorrin has been active in Hi-Y for two years and has always upheld the club ideals. In his first three years here, Lorrin kept his distance when a girl was within gun-shot, but things have changed. We wish you the best of luck in the future, Lorrin.
