Like several other members of the Class of '35, Don came into the Senior Year after an unavoidable absence of one year from Pennsylvania State College of Optometry, and, like the others was warmly welcomed. Don, although quiet and reserved, was friendly with all his colleaguesg his was a serious turn of mind, and, coupled with that characteristic, his desire to be helpful made for him many close friends. When information on the mechanics of some instrument was wanted, Don would be sought out always, and if he wasn't able to supply the data immediately he would be able through his contacts, to obtain it for the inquirer. lt was a familiar sight to see Don C-ernet distributing pamphlets among his classmates. Without a doubt this graduate possesses the necessary qualities for personal success, and we feel sure that he will be diligent in using them fully for the welfare of his patients.

C-ELLER 31 Ryan Street NEW BEDFORD, MASS. o lt would take a Sir james Barrie, a Lewis Carrol, a Segar, or some other master of whimsy to present an authentic and satisfactory characterization of joe Geller. One could never predict what the vagaries of joe's highly imaginative cerebrations would cause him to say. But when this native son of Massachusetts opened his mouth, it was the signal for all to listen attentively. Almost never did joe disappoint his listeners. His whimsical expressions caused many hearty laughs. loe's ability quickly to grasp the essentials of the various courses, permitted him to rank high in the class, with a minimum amount of effort on his part. Perhaps, from the above description, one not knowing Geller might consider him frivolous, and without a serious side. But this isn't so for he has been able to cultivate a certain reserve which is obvious in the graver moments of life. His extra-curricular activities were mainly fraternal. As an original member of Omicron Delta Epsilon, he was quite active first in bringing it into being and, later in furthering the interests of the fraternity in every possible way. '68

THE I935 IRIS Simon Cratz High School Glee Club lll l2l jewish Students' Association SEYMOUR EUGENE COTTLIEB 4734 N. Ninth Street PHILADELPHIA, PENNA. o It was evident, shortly after the beginning of our Freshman year, that this Philadelphian would never succumb to the obstacles in his path to success. It is rare to say of anyone, He knew the time and place for everything --yet Seymour was imbued with this spirit. While in the classroom, he proved an ideal student, intently following every word of the professor. In his leisure time, on the other hand, his mirthful moments were a constant source of amusement to his associates. His tolerance for the viewpoint of other students, his even temper, and his willingness to cooperate at all times, never failed to win him friends on all sides. The best of luck, Seymour, and may you show as good judgement in your future as you have done in the past. '70
