What the yearbook said

Gin is that peppy little jitterbug who is always seen hurrying around the corridors. Because of her sunny disposition, she has won her way into the hearts of our class. Her favorite pastimes are dancing, swimming, and listening to swing records. She is a member of Rainbow and Kappa Delta Phi. Gin is planning to go to Eorsyth Dental School.
