'THE IRIS l South Philadelphia High School Cap and Gown Committee C37 IAY S. MANASHIL Manny Philadelphia, Pa. Here we have one of the real honest to goodness humorists of our class. His sure-fire patter was warranted to give the whole class many good laughs during the three years we spent together. C-ags were only a small portion of Manny's entertainment for his friends for he also rendered charming little ballads in the accepted Bing Crosby style. Sometime during his senior year he was interviewed with the idea of finding out what he would devote his matchless energy to in the years following graduation. He promptly ad- mitted-for indecision was never a characteristic of this little man-that he inteded to be a specialist. He would spend the major part of his time producing acute corneal ulcers on three six or nine base curves. lt seems impossible that an individual who is willing to tackle such a problem could possibly be a failure in life.

I Long will this able young lady be remembered for her flashing smile and her ability to make a multitude of friends. She can tell you the intimate detail of Washington-the news behind the news. But don't let her apparent light-heartedness deceive you. She can argue a point in Optometry with anyone and will bring rnany a flippant person to the knowledge that he is engaged in a losing battle of wits. Those flashing teeth and eyes will be an indispensable asset to Fran in later years, as she practices her chosen profession, and we prophesy a waiting line of patients who simply must have immediate attention. eighty-mee 1 in diff '11 . 3. g 1 ss.
