MODERN DANCE V. Po ey and P. Eliot see double. C. Kleinman and P. Eliot, Student Directors Terpsichores, named for the Muse of Music, staged a thoroughly interesting, artistic dance recital last March. The first portion of the pro- gram was a series of abstract dances choreo- graphed by the club membership and based on Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass. Part II consisted of a group of original dances en- titled “Mixed Metaphors. Terpsichore members were selected after passing comprehensive audi- tions testing their technical ability, their rhythmic sensitivity, and their creativity in the field of dance. N. Topf floats through the air with the greatest of ease. B. LeVine and P. Posner trip the light fantastic.

BANK: Miss Cooley and H. Ng. ALICIA'S FAREWELL There is a pattern of behavior peculiar to man in the United States determined by many social and historical causes, most of which still escape me. Political power? What is the essence of this power in your country? That is another half-answered question. Then there is the inter- esting problem of individual neuroses that may lead to dangerous mass psychoses. Are Ameri- cans maladjusted or too well adjusted? Are hu- man relations too impersonal? Is there really an utter lack of sensitivity? Some day, maybe I will know. G. O. STORE: Left to right—L. Friedman, J. Gardner, Dr. lee. B. Schwartz, C. Tuft;.

EXTRA! ARISTA EDITION Great GREAT tvlECK. MEW YORK Sic transit gloria Monday, the first day of each school week, completed the cycle. One sponsor, Mr. Fields, and assorted staff members heaved sighs, plunged the cage” into dark- ness again, and sent another finished issue to the printer. Thereupon they Enid Schildkrout, Editor in Chief brooded, somewhat happily, over the next three-day session of writing, edit- ing, and assembling the Cnide Post. Thus each week Editor-in-Chief Enid Schiidkraut and her staid staff mem- bers, Esta Diamond, Lori Plesser, Barbara Milman, Joan Schloessingcr, Ellen Faust, Ellen Kaplan, Maddi Magzis, Linda Friedman, David Katz- man, Alan Schlosser, Judy Gozan, and (what a list!) Mike LaMonica, pro- vided their classmates with extremely palatable journalistic fare: startling scoops on sundry topics; candid com- ments on and by faculty members, fellow students, and administratore; Esta Diamond, Associate Editor radical but brilliant editorials; master- pieces of creative writing; and imagina- tive, futuristic cartoons. While writers wrote, Art Wasser- spring handled the paper's advertising ton and her girls typed, and typed, and . . . The weekly cycle commenced each Wednesday as the first drips and draps of assigned copy began to trickle in. Each editor, having formed a glorious mental picture of the layout for his page, set about trying to fulfill his Lori Plesser, Assistant to the Editors accounts, Richard Fine managed prob- lems in higher finance, and Judy Tick- Mr. Fields, Sponsor vision. After re-writing, cutting, and snipping were completed, said glorious layouts often had to be thoroughly re- vised to the dismay of their creators. Thursdays were the Big Days. All the torments and frustrations of the week were forgotten as each page slowly began to take form. News staff members busily re-wrote last minute news flashes; sports reporters checked their statistics; and feature writers carefully revised their syntax and guessed where commas belonged. 18
