Scotty is the dark-haired, regular featured chap who never has much to say but is an attentive listener. When he does say something it is worth listening to. In spite of being so shy and unobtrusive Bill has many friends. We all wish him future success. JAXE : L RRON She i ' as as good as she zvas fair.
