f iTgI-IE SCOPE Seimiioir History C. M. BAKER, '32. Twenty-one short months ago the faculty of this school observed twenty-six new faces entering the portals, seeking knowledge in the mysteries and magic of Optometry, Most of the faces were new to each other. Each on the threshold of a new adventure, wondering what the others would be like, but common aims and common desires soon welded them into one solid mass, which we modestly proclaim has been 10092 loyal. We were first impressed with the obstacle of acquiring the vernacular of the pro- fession. Names, many and long, were passed out for our assimilation and we endeavored to learn what it was all about. By Thanksgiving recess we began to feel capable of solving the eye troubles of the world, but the patient persistence of our instructors has brought us now to a realization that we are still embryos, about to be thrust upon the .cruel world, still seeking our goal, with this important milestone about to pass into the realm of pleasant memories. We have studied and played, some more than others, some less seriously, yet .ill with the end in view of meriting an engraved scroll from the hand of Dr. Klein. The teamwork of our class has been above reproach. Our class functions have been proof of this co-operation. From our Christmas Party, through our dances, school banquets, and the trips to Southbridge, the display of talent and spirit has been made manifest in unmistakable manner. When we parted at the end of the first year, the sentiment of a few gave rise to the belief that they were discouraged and did not expect to return, but when the fresh September breezes recalled us from our summer diversions, we answered the roll call to a man. We welcomed to our ranks john Brennan and Dan Kuperstein, both of whom have proved worthy fellows and good mixers. The ofhcers of our class deserve commendation. C. W, Pride. President, R. XY . Baker, Vice-president, T. H. Couch. Secretary, and Foster Namias, Treasurer, were so capable in our junior Year, that they were unanimously re-elected to guide us through our Senior Year. The brunt of the burden has fallen on our President and Treasurer. lt would be hard to rind a more ethcient or conscientious incumbent for either office. Our associations have been all too short. Our friendships will last as long as our physiological functions continue. Our memories will bring us many a smile, and our future perhaps, may bring an embryonic likeness which we can send to M. S. O. This Year Book will be a cherished treasure. Its pages will recall the scenes which we are now enacting. Its pictures place us all upon review, yet we would none of us wish to continue here in a circle of endless study and pleasure. We all face the future with a desire to achieve success, to make a practical application of that knowledge which we have gained from those who have so thoroughly and patiently endeavored to prepare us for our life work. May our contribution to society in our chosen profession, and our standing among the members of the craft, reflect due credit upon our instructors and this school, our Alma Mater. i7l
