Austin Weiss: The only good luck many great men ever had is being born with the ability and determination to overcome bad luck. Many of the students of Adrian High School do not know or remember this boy, but he has given us an example of strength and courage from which we all can profit. In 1936, when Austin Weiss was a senior, he met with a very unfortunate accident. While diving at Sutton River, he slipped and broke his back. For many months, he lay with his neck in a cast. After he regained his health, he returned to school, but the effort was too much for him, and he was forced to quit. Each year he tried, and this year it was decided that he finish his work at home. He has now completed his education, and is graduating with the class of 1941. Austin is very much interested in Mechanical Drawing and after his graduation, he plans to become an architect. The members of the class wish Austin all the luck, success and happiness in the world.
