What the yearbook said

I am sober as a judge

As seen by his classmates in school, Bill appears to be a quiet unassuming fellow but once outside the mightly portals he changes to the fun-loving type. He was a faithful member of “The Outdoor Boys,” a well-known South Side organization. Bill was a great sports follower and during the spring months could often be seen at Crocker Field, working out on the track. Being a persistent fellow, who knows but what he may be a future Olympic star?
