What the yearbook said

Mimie with her blond hair and cheerful grin entered the old Sewall School in 1932. Both her grin and light hair have continued all through her high school career. Mimie has done a grand job as President of Girls’ Club and I’m sure we’ll all remember her as she rushed from her School Life duties to 307 to consult Mac. Mini is going to Boston University where we all wish her the best of luck.
