What the yearbook said
Paul Bennett, sometimes called “Beanit” was one of those illustrious Rooseveltians who found themselves wandering around Melrose High School on September 9, 1928. He got over the foolish freshman antics which he had acquired and settled down to business. Paul “tooted” earnestly on his trumpet, which he likes very much to play, for four years. Paul was clever enough practically to complete his course by the end of his third year, but this does not mean lie was indifferent to hard work. 1 1 is desire for the future, I believe, is to become a successful professional trumpet player. We all know that if he pursues his ambition, he will be very successful.
