      The narrative under his picture in the 1931 yearbook: "Ed always has a pleasant smile and a good word for every one. Injuries kept him from making the regular basketball team which he would have otherwise done, but he starred on the inter-class tournament on the Junior team. He also plays football with a keen fighting spirit. We hope next year that he will be able to be with us in upholding the good name of the Salem Tigers."
