Central High School F sz fb Basketball lll Decoration Committee l3l E IRIS l93-4 0 ELMER SHARLIP HBOODH Philadelphia, Pa. I Boop came to us wild and untamed and, in spite of ourselves, we have to admit that he graduated more or less the same way, He came to us, also, with a vehicle of doubtful vin- tage but he didn't carry it through graduation tor it simply couldn't take the mauling Boop handed out. 'lBoop', had the happy tactulty of getting his class work with a minimum of mental ap- plication. l-le indicated that he never wished to be accused of studying. That would have hurt him terribly. So, without accusing him ot studying, we wish to say that he was right up with the class in most courses and way ahead in mathematics. We predict a happy future for this young optometrist and, at the risk of being termed com- mercially minded, admonish him to put as much money in the bank as he put miles on his old gas buggy during his college days.

'THE IRIS l Walton High School Freshman Assessment Committee Chaplain, Omega Delta Fraternity QA l3l Q37 Ninety-six ROBERT W. SCOTT, jr. Scotty Walton, N. Y. I Scotty hails from the most beautiful spot in the Catskills, if you can take his word for it, and if you can't-well, go ahead and argue the point with him, - Scotty was always a reserved individual and gained a large group of friends through that very quality. The other members of the four horsemen of room 27 will tell you that determination was a prominent feature of his make-up and that he entertained them with his nocturnal snoring. The social lights of P. S. C. O. regard him as a charter member of the Beaver College Fri- day Evening Club. This, however, was but one of his many connections and it may cause a certain young lady from Cornell to raise a brow. But that is just one more of Scotty's problems, We don't know where he expects to practice but we feel that whatever section of the country gets him can't do better.

0 THE IRIS l Camden High School Senior Dance Committee l3l GEORGE SH EPPARD .ishepn Camden, N. I. Camden, adjacent to Philadelphia, presents another member of our class in the form of George Sheppard. From the first day Shep made his way into the hearts of the ma- jority of the class with his gracious personality and easy mannerisms. Shep has been able to mix a carefree air with a scholastic standing to the benefit of both. We will always be reminded of the certain coupe to be found standing at the curb every afternoon during our Freshman Year whenever we think of Shep. lt might be added that many envied him the contents of the coupe-nuff said, Eh', Vic? ln the latter part of his Senior Year Shep labored at research in that department of the college clinics. Together with this work he combined months of clinical work at 1809 Spring Garden that proved the value of the training he had received in previous years. To fail to mention Shep's ability in the field of tennis would be next to sacriligious. Finishing close to the top in the Camden City Finals he showed remarkable form. Likewise did he perform to the delight of the spectators on the courts here at the Campus. We're sure that Shep will preserve his drive in Optometry as well as he has been able to main- tain it in his favored sport, tennis. N inety-eight
