What the yearbook said

Speakers' Bureau. Coming to Melrose in the middle of her Junior year from Saugus High School, Priscilla found no trouble in quickly making a host of friends. Some people may think she is quiet, but to those who know her better she is a bundle of fun and wit. Pussy is fond of all sports, especially skiing, swimming, and dancing, and spends her leisure time playing the piano and sewing. Priscy's plans for the future are uncertain but she intends to continue her education after graduation.
