What the yearbook said
“Cuddies” is a singular character and one of the favorites of our class. He is among our masculine cuties and will be well remembered for his stalwart work at right end on our championship football team. His future is undecided, but we feel sure that “Dick” will end up at B. U. to continue his fine scholastic and athletic work. Anyway, “Dick” will never be “B. Hines.”
