What the yearbook said

Lincoln School Dick came to Melrose High School in 1938 after eight long years of hard study. He likes sports, but could not play any in school, for he worked for a local Taxi Company. Dick is very popular, even though he could not play sports. He keeps his hobby a secret because he is a modest boy. His plans for the future are undecided. In spite of this, we are all wishing him luck.
