GUI MONT Excursion Club. 4 Gadder was somewhat of a wise-cracker who. during his Junior year, made many trips to the office (when he wasn't trying to nuke up lost sleep). His studies were much better in the Senior year than in any previous year. He played a regular position at halfback on the school football team in 1928. and was always very prominent in inter-class athletics. When the fooling is put aside he is very brilliant and will make a real businessman. Al is a jovial, witty, young fellow, always ready to help his classmates (especially in tests) in everything that might be of some assistance to them. In all his work Al has proven successful. being a student and a good mixer which arc the main cogs in that machine called Success. We would not be a bit surprised if some day he were President of the United States or at least Alderman of the 4th ward. Al” has that certain type of personality which enables him to get along remarkably well, not only with his classmates, but also with everyone he meets. Very calm, serene, and mild, not easily angered, he fits in anywhere. Although he docs not take an active part in the activities of the school, he always does his share of the work and is a real student. Al is destined for success in anything he may undertake. Thou shall never be poor while retaining thy tongue with its abundance of words O this learning, what a and genuine wit. thing it is Consistency's a jewel. Pape Twenty-four
