High boys for former schoolmate,
Linwood Hodgdon would not be in
vain. for in the opinion Of the doctors
performing the CRAFTS of skin from
the boys legs to the arm Of the
Hodgdon boy the operation will prob
ably be successful The boys who
made the generous offer are now back
in school, having given their best In
an attempt to give Linwood the use
of his right arm for life.
It is interesting to note that Of the
nine boys six are entitled to wear the
school insignia won by participation
in major sport. Three won letters
in the football season just closed, one
of the boys, Clayton Jake" Lynds
being the star of the Conv game. The
