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.

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

THE 1935 IRIS Cheltenham Inter-Fraternity Council l2i Glee Club iii l2l Vice-President and Treasurer of Omicron Delta Epsilon l2i WILLIAM FELLMAN 2nd 7l8 Chelten Avenue PHILADELPHIA, PENNA. o Bill comes from an Optometric family and thus it was quite natural that he would pursue this profession. When Bill entered our Hall of Learning, he knew he had an extended period of hard work ahead of him. Displaying a commendable spirit, he was successful in coping with the assignments he undertook. His interests were many and varied. The National Guard of Pennsylvania attracted his attention and today he is a Second Lieutenant in this military organization. ln his first year at the school, Bill, and a few of his friends, founded the Omicron Delta Epsilon Fraternity. He was honored with the Vice-Presidency, and his never tiring efforts in behalf of this organization helped advance it to the prominent and respected position it occupies today. In the clinic Bill was well liked, and his ability to gain and hold the confidence of his patients was quite remarkable. We feel sure that Bill will do well, and that he will find that Optometry with its varied interests and associations will make for a fuller and happier existence.
