What the yearbook said

In September, 1928, there came from Roosevelt School, Peggy, the girl with the golden smile and lovely hair. Peggy’s favorite sports are baseball and tennis. We do not see her with the opposite, local sex, although we have an idea she likes a certain someone. Peggy hopes to be either a domestic science teacher or a dietitian. She is almost sure of going to Leslie School for about three years.
