THE 1935 IRIS Calumet High School Class Historian ill Freshman Hop Committee ili Class Secretary i2l i3l Pupil Staff i3l -Cap and C-own Committee i3l Vice-President Phi Beta Rho l2l EDLA LOUISE FAHLEN 145 Woodland Avenue LAURIUM, MICH. The ability to combine a keen sense of humor with innate dignity is a rare attainment in a man. ln a woman it is priceless. Anyone associated with Edla Fahlen during these past three years will bear witness to the fact that the above description fits well the tiny co-ed from Michigan. Edla can giggle one minute and become as sober of mien as the proverbial judge the next, and the change be no more startling than the stilling of a rippling brook as it flows into a serene and lovely lake. Not only is Edla a capable student and cliniciang her extra-curricular activities have marked her for keen responsibilities and endeavors in her chosen profession, and the com- munity in which she chooses to live. As class secretary during our junior and senior years she has served efficiently and well. She has also the distinction of being the first vice-president of Phi Beta Rho, the new sorority. '64

63' THE 1935 IRIS Germantown High School University of Pennsylvania Temple University Pupil Staff lll l2l Orchestra l2l Composite Picture l3l Editor of The lris EARL R. EMONS 6357 York Road PHILADELPHIA, PENNA. No one will regret more deeply than Earl the splitting-up of the class after graduation. Living close to the College, he shared in most of the pleasant associations of school life. During his three years of preparation he has stayed near the top of his classes, in scholarship. His chief interest has perhaps been A.C. and C.A., and everything tied up with them. 'He has often been the target for questions by classmates on these and other matters. One of his favorite diversions has been to present himself somewhere between West Orange lN. l.l and Merrick lL. l.l at least once in every three months, Earl is the Editor of our Year Book, the Iris of Nineteen Thirty-five. We rise,-figura- tively speaking,-as a Class, for a vote of thanks to him for his enthusiasm, and the great amount of labor he expended in bringing into being this literary panorama of our activities. And we must include in our salute the assisting editors, the business and advertising managers, the art editor, and all others in the class who have aided in producing this fine and inclusive record.

65' THE 1935 IRIS. William Penn High School Phi Beta Rho Sorority, Treasurer i3l Member of l. S. A. l2l l3l ROSE FELDENKREIS 2032 N. Broad Street PHILADELPHIA, PENNA. o After three years of delightful association with Rose, we all agree that she is a friend worth having. Her excellent scholastic record gave her a fine reputation as a student, but was overshadowed by her vivacity and her naive and charming capacity for blushing. Gifted with the happy faculty of being able easily to grasp and solve difficult problems, Rose could also hold the interest of an audience while she explained briefly and clearly the intricacies of a T. O. twister, or enlarged upon the details of Optometry. Rose is heart and soul in Optometry, and we predict for her a keen future in which she will be a bright star in the galaxy of prominent women Optometrists.
