What the yearbook said
This small but pleasing individual came into our midst from the Livermore School in the fall of ’22. He soon achieved great fame by making the scenery for the “Dragon”, “Half Back Sandy”, “A Rose O’ Plymouth Town”, and other minor plays. “Shorty” started as advertising manager of “School Life” and later was promoted to the high office of business manager. When “Shorty” cannot be found, look in Room 32, and you are sure to see him plugging away on some masterpiece. With this background as a starter we know “Shorty” will go far in the art line and we sincerely wish him luck.
