What the yearbook said

Ruth, or otherwise known as “Shortie” came into our midst four years ago innocent and petite. Ruth has endeared herself to her friends with her charming personality and ways. Her particular endearment is “Kelley”, her inseparable pal. In electricity unlike poles attract, so it is with Ruth and “Kell” — Ruth, lover of social activities, especially dancing; “Kell”, lover of athletics. “Shortie” is the last word in ultra-modern dress. Paul Poiret had better be on the lookout when Ruth is acclaimed with her attracting styles. But Ruth says, no! She intends to devote her life to religious education. We wish her all the success in the world.
