What the yearbook said
Velma Stonebury! What do we associate with that name? Yes, she is the girl with the blue eyes, blond hair, and that well-known maidenly blush. Vel was one of the bashful Freshmen who came to M. H. S. from the Gooch School. Although she didn’t go out for athletics, she enthusiastically supported the football and hockey teams (especially a small part of the hockey team). She has always been a good scholar and has shown particular ability in math. Her plans for the future are not definitely settled, but her friends wish her much success and happiness.
