What the yearbook said

At last, here’s what you have been waiting for: the riddle and its answer complete in this issue. Who has the build of Paul Whiteman, is as jolly as a clown, and is almost able to play the whole line of a football team by himself? Have you guessed the answer? No? Well, here it is in two words, Chubby Fellows. Chubby entered the “Brick Pile” from the Washington School in 1928, and unlike the Freshmen of the present time, he was large even then. Chubby’s motto since he’s been in High School is, “Laugh your troubles away.”
