What the yearbook said

Nat, the girl with the pleasing personality and wit, whom everyone knows. Wherever you go you probably will find her with a “Wimpy” in her hand, but don’t mind that she’s always hungry. When she isn’t eating she’s out playing golf or dancing, two of her favorite sports. To her friends she is just a school girl at heart. After finishing High School, she is going to continue her dancing career, and then watch out for “Wimpy”!
