THE 1935 IRIS Freshmen Class History On the seventeenth of September, the portals of the college were opened to the incoming Freshmen class of I937, who were eager to begin their courses in quest of fame in the field of Optometry. As the weeks progressed, the members of the class began to realize that there was plenty of real, hard, honest-to-goodness work to be done before they could reap the laurels of their chosen profession. lt was not long before the green Freshmen began to find their places in the school routine, and settled down to work, and to enjoy the social activities of the college. ln October, the Upperclassmen played the genial hosts to the class of '37. The annual Freshman smoker was enjoyed in the College Hall with the jovial and rotund Dr. Deissler as Master of Ceremonies. Vaudeville stunts were put on by various students, and everyone in the Senior and junior classes strove mightily to make the Freshmen feel at home amidst the spiral- ing blue flames, and the dots of live red in the corncob pipes. Dr. Deissler related the traditional birdie story, and, with the usual blessing which accompanies the story, the delightful smoker came to an end. ln the Fall of '35, the class of '38 will be received and entertained in the same manner. ln December, the Freshmen were put to their first real test-the first trimester examinations. The Christmas holidays soothed their troubled minds for twelve days, but shortly after the return to school in january the marks were lying in wait for them, and, naturally there were some sad, some happy, and some elated members. Then, respite from worrisome thoughts until March l5th. Second tri- mester exams, and the same experiences, and ordeal of waiting, waiting. On February 22nd, the Freshman Class played host to the entire school and held their annual dance at the Manufacturers' and Bankers' Club. This was the first formal dance held by any Freshman Class, and, inaugurating a precedent, met with much approval by all the student body. lt was the first dance of the season and the spontaneity and Congeniality of everyone made the Promenade a grand success. The class held its first election, selecting Frederick Fish, jr. to skipper the class of one hundred and thirty-four members for the year. Walter Schneeweis was named next in command and proved a very able chairman of the dance committee. john Vickery was elected to 'handle the class finances and to keep the books out of the red at all times, which he did with the ingenuity of a Certified Public Accountant. Miss Claire Pribula handled the quill with the ease and grace that only the fair sex displays. When the warm weather routed the snow, the Freshmen turned to baseball and put a splendid team on the field. They played the Upperclass team and managed to take them into camp by the score of 5-l. Now they are looking for new laurels this year on the tennis court and they hope to retain any victories they achieve throughout their P.S.C.O. College life. Taking it all in all, the year was most delightful for the entire Freshman Class, and they are looking forward to the remaining two years with all the eagerness and enthusiasm that only Freshmen possess.
