High School will certainly miss a great deal when “Peg” leaves. “Hoopie’s” fine disposition is shown in her almost continual smil- ing and singing (especially in the Locker Room); moreover, everyone shares the warmth of her winning smile. Next year “Hoopie” is going to State Teachers College, where, we know, she will be a great success. 15
