Members of one of Brooklyn’s most distinguished school classes meet next month for their annual reunion.
Graduates of Public School 84, in the June, 1903 class, who have distinguished themselves in various walks of life, will gather to pay tribute to a member who made good in Brooklyn. He is, according to Justice Nathan Sweedler of the Municipal Court, Dr. Samuel Silverstein, a physician, and now president of the Food Dealers’ Industrial Bank.
Several figures in American and New York life are graduates of that school.
