THE I-935 IRIS Lincoln High School Ohio State University 1. LEON SOLOW I2 Audobon Avenue IERSEY CITY, N.l. o When this diminutive young man transferred to our college from Ohio State University, we could not estimate the popularity which he would win for himself in his short stay here. Leo, perhaps, gained more attention in his brief stay within the portals of P. S, C. O. than many of the other members of the class. Where Optometry was concerned, Leo was always the first to enter the discussion, and it was very seldom that his opinions could be disregarded. On the other hand, his wit and impromptu entertainment on many occasions exhibited the humorous side of his nature. Leo impressed practically everyone with his frankness and sincerity, but although the former trait led him into some difficulty, 'he was liked by all for the good spirit in which he accepted another's ideas and opinions. lOl '

W The faculty of this institution will certainly remember the name ot Sinoway in the years to come, for in five years there will have been three brothers who passed beneath its portals. lack will, no doubt, be remembered as an ardent participant in all the class discussions. Like his brothers he was naturally of a quiet nature, but he managed always to clarify a situation when called upon for his point ot view. A newcomer, perhaps, might have been surprised by his general frankness, but, upon second thought, would have attributed this to a desire to be friendly with all. He should make an enviable record for himself, tor his merits are easily appreciated by anyone who is a good judge of character. ' lOO

THE 1935 IRIS Hammonton High School Drexel Institute ot Technology Newman Club i2l l3i President ot ll Circolo Italiano Decoration Committee l3l Cap and Gown Committee l3l P. A. SPINELLI 20 West End Avenue HAMMONTON, NEW IERSEY o In Pat we have a sincere student and fine scholar. He was the mathematical genius ot the class. His knowledge of the subject was as varied as it was extensive. This may be partly explained by the fact that he has a B.S. from the Drexel Institute of Technology. Whether it was a question of solving a complicated trigonometric identity or a Geometrical Optics sticker, Pat was usually called upon to explain in detail. Upon such request he often had to remain after classes to unravel the intricacies of an S.S.R.S. or Gauss System. Since he was a commuter from Hammonton, his willingness to do this was the more appreciated by the students whom he helped in this manner. Needless to say he acquired a host of friends during his school years. One of his closest cronies was joe in whose company he was most frequently seen. Both of them seemed to have a common understanding which welded them together even as tar back as the fresh- man days. Pat had a practical turn of mind which was somewhat paradoxical in one so well versed in theory. His pet hobby was rigging up rheostats for the portable instruments in various departments ot the clinic in order to help him perform the examinations more smoothly. We teel confident that Pat, with his knowledge and pleasing personality, will be one of the first ot our class to! make good. ' 2
