What the yearbook said

Jim can be identified very easily by his profile. It is perfect in form and would make any father proud. He came from Lincoln School in ’32 and has stayed with us all through the four long years in this great institution. He has a good disposition and it was not until ’36 that he discovered that women played an important part in a man’s life. We wish him the best of luck on that journey from Cottage Street to Tufts.
