U-I-ony., Reading, Pa. The lone wolf of the Campus. He came and he went in that black coupe, and nqie knew his haunts or his destinations. Few knew him, but those who did realized that he had one very definite purpose in mind-some goal that he was determined to attain. That was the development of a smooth professional man. Many times, Tony'l participated in those midnight bull sessions, for which colleges are justly famous, idly discussing life and women. He could become far more serious, however, dis- cussing the fate of Optometry. , Always tastefully garbed, with the naturally sophisticated air of one who was generally in the know, Tony created a fine impression among his associates at P. S. C. O. We cannot but feel that he will do likewise as he takes his place in the professional world. U One Hundred and One

'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.

0 THE IRIS l Methuen High School Chairman, Carp and Gown Committee l3l WALTER K. STOEH RER ..WaIt,. Methuen, Mass. I You can't miss this product of old Massachusetts and, for that matter, wouldn't want to. He is typical of that old conception of the genial German race and has never been known to speak a harsh word-well not many. Walt and Carl Metzger made up an all-German wassailing team in their Freshman daze which lasted right up until their graduation. Many are the amusing incidents which they could relate-if they chose to speak. Walt came to P. S. C. O. with a good optometric background and achieved no little fame in neutralization in Dr. Neill's Ophthalmic Mechanics class. A sort of ne plus lenticular ultra-if you get our idea! His success in the College Clinics indicates that he is of the group who will get on, optometrically speaking. One Hundred and Two
