What the yearbook said

December of 1930 brought to us that tall, blue-eyed blond in the person of Win Roukes. Win came from Springfield, Mass., and what a loss he must have been. We of Melrose High fell for Win when we saw him. It must have been that ever-ready smile or that pleasing personality. Anyway, Win was O. K.’d by everyone, especially a young lady, one of the lower classmen. On the basketball court, how that boy did shine, the flash of M. H. S.! Socially as well as athletically is Win a success. At any of the good dances, you can find Win dancing, laughing, and whispering sweet nothings to the sweet things. The boy with the blond hair and lovable smile, that’s Win Roukes.
