What the yearbook said

Sylvia entered Melrose High School in 1932 and, like many other freshmen, was in a daze. She has recuperated now, though, and plans to attend college next year. Although she hasn’t quite decided which one yet, we hope that she will be successful in whatever career she enters upon graduating from college. However, we wish her all the luck in the world.
