What the page does not say. No clubs or activities, no grammar school, no plan after graduation here. Classmates' entries carry them often (clubs or activities 82%, grammar school 48% and plan after graduation 42%); if William's entry has them on the scan, our reading missed them and we would like to hear.
What the yearbook said
One morning in the early fall of “32” a lad sauntered merrily into the halls of M. H. S. His name was Bill, as Ins new friends found out. He has been very successful in his classes and we are sure his brilliance will stay with him in the future. If he can’t join the Marines, he will go to work, and we suspect it w ill be the latter.
