What the yearbook said
Ruth’s friends call her “Flivver” for various reasons, the most important one being that she would like to claim relationship to the famous Henry. But she comes far from resembling a “tin lizzie” in any way, although she is rather small. Ruth declares that she is indifferent towards the boys, but seeing the attraction Northeastern University has for her, we doubt this statement of indifference. It seems strange that “Flivver” is so interested in such a subject as Latin that she intends to teach it. We are sure, however, that her pupils will find the study of Latin most interesting, and we hope that she will be successful in her future career.
