What the yearbook said

Midge, one of the most good-natured members of our noble class, entered the Melrose High in the fall of ’35. W e shall always remember her as she stood behind the footl counter in the cafeteria handing sandwiches to the hungry students. Chubby’s greatest ambition is to become an employee of the Federal Reserve Bank in Boston. Here’s hoping your desire is fulfilled.
