Description

Neil* Grace Sullivan, LL.B.

Elkton, Kentucky

Henry Clay; Glee Club; President, 'IS; University Quartet.

"Sully" must have had a canary bird for a play toy when he was a kid, for he has somehow acquired an ambition to sing. His rich, melodious voice flowing from the "attic" of White Hall has caused many a feminine heart to thrill with rapture, while her escort longed to heave a brick. Neal has a campusful of friends and adds more to his list every time he sings.

-The Kentuckian, 1920
