E IRIS l93-40 .I r Central High School University of Pennsylvania Ring Committee l3l LOUIS SNYDERMAN Lou Philadelphia, Pa. I , Here we present the gentleman who was known as Lou and one of the mildest men in the l934 group. We knew very little about him for he lived with his family in the City and spent little time with us outside of class, Two things about him are certain: Lou believed in perusing the books rather frequently as his class work showed, and he enjoyed nothing as much as a nice friendly game of pinochle with his pal, Harry Rosen. Harry could give us plenty of dope on 'Lou but he won't talk. Lou took a keen interest in class work and practice at the Clinics where he was ever willing to lend his aid in the handling of a refractory patient. The Class of l934 wishes him luck in his future endeavors. Ninety-nine

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

'THE IRIS l Overbrook High School Decoration Committee l3l ISADORE E. STERNBERG Lefty Philadelphia, Pa. Lefty Sternberg was one young man who certainly knew his Philadelphia. This was to be expected as he was a native of these parts. At a moment's notice he could furnish the stand- ing of any member of an athletic organization in or about Philadelphia. lt was one of his favorite past-times and often he could be heard conducting an open forum as to the relative merits of a pair of wrestlers, baseball players or, what have you. He also was greatly inter- ested in the theater and was something of a critic of the drama. He is said to have been a very co-operative Clinician-always ready to render an opinion as to what disposition should be made of a difficult case which, in some instances, was unso- licited. However, it was indeed very comforting to know that one had that ever-present help in time of need. At class meetings Lefty could be counted upon to insert a spot of pep in the proceedings. This was especially true in our first year when his favorite hobby, baseball, was not, to his mind, getting it's just dues. Good luck, Lefty and may we meet in the not- too-distant future. One Hundred
