Hillel Cooperman purchased a small autograph book

Hillel Cooperman purchased a small autograph book dating from the 1940s in a Hong Kong shop and has posted scans of the book online in hopes that people will help translate it. A commenter says: “This book is used to leave comments โ€” quite popular at graduation time when your classmates left you good wishes of your future. The owner of the book is named ‘Xi Rao’, and the college he graduated from in Spring 1942 is ‘Jiao Tong’ university.”
