What the yearbook said

In 1928, Dick entered Melrose High from the Washington School. He has taken an active part in productions of both the Cloak and Plume and the Masque and Wig associations, and during his Senior year Dick has often been seen making trips from 35 to 38 in preparation for various plays. Dick’s pleasant personality and cheerful smile have won him a great many friends. Although his future is somewhat undecided now, Dick has high hope of continuing his musical career by studying the organ. Whatever he undertakes, Dick has the best wishes of his classmates.
