HERMAN FRIEDMAN Spruce Hotel Philadelphia Gratz High School ALWAYS smiling, always seeking for something with which to amuse himself, Herman spent a happy three years at Temple. And little of that time there was that wasn't spent with his pal on the opposite page and Moss. We had combinations of varying degree in our class, but we can't say that any other was more constant than this. Friedman and Gold—why they even had their names in that order on the roll. Herm's methods of solving problems and for study in general were a source of amusement for many. The daily paper was usually in close proximity to his school books, and an occasional time out was taken to see what the sports scribes thought of Temple's chances in the next game. In the chem lab Heim was at the zenith of his glory. Here it was that he had his greatest opportunity to dispose of musty, time-worn methods and introduce something with life. It was merely a question of common sense— why beat around the bush, when you can jump over it, or something. Well, at the latest reports they are still using the standard tests. Herm didn't exactly blow up the lab, but his results were, to put it mildly, varied. But he licked it. 24

ALLEN EDWIN FORSYTHE 5225 Pine Street Philadelphia West Philadelphia High Bacteriological Society 2, 3 AE. F., as most heavily inclined people, ■ was good natured and humorous. The various forms of strife and contention which visited our fair campus produced noi a single ruffle in Al’s placidity. If he thought heatedly regarding any matter it was never noticeable. Of course. Allen never wasted words, or indulged to any great extent in betv een-class bull-sessions. He was in school for a purpose and let nothing interfere with that purpose. A further mark of contemplative nature was his ever-present pipe—the betrayer of his presence. Bacteriology was his avocation, and to this he applied the rules of general life that he had made his. Thoroughness, above all, characterized his work in the lab and out. We will never forget the voluminous report he turned in for his thesis in freshman year—charts and everything. And at this time he is applying himself just as energetically to the various projects of the Bacteriology Society—projects which may have some bearing on future ehiro-podial methods. 23

MAURICE M. GOLD 8 Birch Street Binghamton, N. Y. Binghamton Central High Associate. Anatomical Society 2 Bacteriological Society 2. 3 WOW! almost missed, Maurice. But we can see your point—you've been late for three years, so why hurry now? Or, wait, is it Gold,— or Moss? Yes, it's Gold, because he's wearing that imported sweater. We were worried for a while, until we realized that they would be on opposite pages. He and Herm, we mean. After all. they've never been further apart than that and we didn't want to hand them down to posterity in any other fashion. In clinic work, Gold was one of the leaders in points. He seemed to have phenomenal luck at drawing the patients with the most possible conditions whether he sat in the first chair or down in the cellar. When he became a senior member of the Bact Society, Maurice didn’t wait for the Projects Committee or regular meetings, but began investigating the bacteriocidal powers of light waves. While his conclusions are not yet perfected. it can be assumed that some day we shall be hearing of a prominent bacteriological physio-therapist--Maurice Gold, the Binghamton Binger.
