Northwestern honors twelve students for high scholarship
North Shore girls Estelle Englehardt and Edna E. Fritsch were among twelve Northwestern students named for high scholastic standing at a special Evanston convocation. Dr. Raymond A Kent awarded volumes of literature to the top six boys and six girls in the 1927 28 freshman class, with Harvard Law’s Roscoe Pound delivering the principal address. Other notes include the Skinner family planning a winter in Alabama then moving to Indiana, Theresa Schaefer hosting a birthday luncheon and bridge party, and Albert Page returning from a business trip to Elyria Ohio.
