What the yearbook said
“Bud” came to M. H. S. from the Livermore School four years ago. He found his place at once, and because of his good looks and pleasing personality he became popular among both boys and girls. “Bud” went in for everything that came along and always did his share of the work. The boys of the Hi-Y Club, in order to show their appreciation of his good qualities, made him secretary of their club. “Bud” plans to “prep” a year at Wilbraham, after which he is thinking of going to Wesleyan, Connecticut. We know he will succeed in whatever he does, so best wishes, “Bud!”
