What the yearbook said

“Betty” may not be much of an athlete, but she has been active in the social affairs of the school, and hardly anyone needs an introduction to her. As chairman of the Social Committee of the Girls’ Club, she has several times this past year prepared a good hearty meal for its members. She has also put her time into the Assembly Committee and the Traffic Squad. One would have a long way to go to find a more persistent worker than “Betty.” We feel sure that the future holds much success and happiness for “Betty.”
