14 THE DURFEE RECORD Leon Lempert McGrady HAS HNIacH has liJeen the most hustling A President Of any class in our school history! eNaturallyl A medium sized fellmv with a. large cranium holding a still larger brain he could do 110 less. Large cranium does not mean exag- gerated ego or in simpler language hIi:-3m . In fact he is the personifieatiou of modesty yet possess- ing withal suflieient self eunhtlenee to title him over the waves of adversity. Beahtnwn being the heme 0f brainy men it was quite proper that Leon Me- Grady should be liiorn there, which event Utjcureti August, 1893. When at the age of ten years, dressed in short trousers, a lovely little Lord Faunteleroy blouse. and i'posd-alge stamp eap'l he entered the Highland School, he ttoritii'luetl tea demonstrate his precneity. Upon receiving his parchment he set sail on the tempestuoua seas of a high school career. The year 1911 saw him elected president of the class. He set to work at once unifying the memhers. His automplishments in 1912 require no emmieratinn here. Electrical eligineeri 115,; will he his life work, in preparation for which he will enter M. l. '1'., Leon Lemptkrt we wish you well! I! a BI Everett H. Francis popular officer of our Cadet battalion is Captain Everett Francis of CD. A. He is an absolute necessity at all social functions connected with the school. A candidate for president of our class, he gave our present illustrious official, Mr. McGrady EL close run for the honor, and was elected vice- president, in which capacity he has served the Class admirably. Everett is a 'lleehnical student with aspira- tions tnward Wrtil'cester Polytechnic Institute, and there is little doubt that he will succeed as notably there in his studies as he has here at Durfee, where he is generally known as a persevering student. It would seem that his particular little weak- ness is Hsitting out dances, and to judge from numerous comments he is remarkably Expert at it. Everett is a very attractive appearing oEicer, and excites much aclmiratien when drilling his company. The class will extend to him only the l best wishes for SUCCESS in the new school which he expects to attend.
