THE 1935 IRIS Northampton High School Freshman Dance Committee ill ' junior Prom Committee l2l Phi Theta Epsilon, Treasurer l2l CHARLES C. STARK l5 Dickinson Avenue NORTHAMPTON, MASSACHUSETTS , . Pete, as he became known to his classmates, formed many delightful friendships in his stay at P. S. C. O. He is short of stature, and serious in demeanor, but has a refreshing humor to those who really know him. A great deal cannot be said about the details of his general character, for he is quiet and reserved. His more intimate friends, however, have often remarked about his inherent good nature and sportsmanship. As far as clinic technique is concerned, Pete proved to be an excellent refractionist,-a fact which many of his partners will vouch for. 'With this ability, and his amiable character, Pete should find it easy to make his mark in the optometric profession. lO3 '

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

THE 1935 IRIS Columbia High School Phi Theta Epsilon jOHN CLINTON STONER l24 N. Third Street COLUMBIA, PENNA. o john was a conscientious young man who tackled his assignments without hope of gain, other than that with which the knowledge provided him. Gay, yet not hilarious, earnest, but not grave, john won his way into the hearts of all his classmates because of his earnest' desire to appreciate another person's talents. While not of a talkative nature himself, john always tound time to lend an ear to another's opinions. His intimate friends have the highest regard for him because of his truthfulness and true comradeship. Never, they say, have they heard him utter a derogatory remark against anyone's character. Here, indeed, is a man of the 'Finest character, and one whom no one could wish any- thing but the best of luck in his future endeavors. ' lO4
