What the yearbook said

Wendy came to good old M. Id. S. when he graduated from the Roosevelt School in 1928. During the entire four year course, he has succeeded in receiving good grades in all his work. Wen is quite partial to the present freshman class, and one may often see him with a certain young lady on a dance floor or outside. Wendy has gained many friends during his stay at this school, and we may be sure that wherever he goes he will continue to make new friends and also retain the old. He tells us that he hopes to go to Massachusetts State next year.
