What the yearbook said

Proficient in studies and well-liked by teachers and classmates, Bill will be remembered for his informal class causeries. Not a starring athlete but really a good sport, his weaknesses are his gun, his fists, and his Eleanor. Bill plans to learn salesmanship in Boston and has the best wishes of all.
