While the 1968- 1969 General Organization fought inde- fatigably for a student voice in the decision- making processes of the school system, the 1969-1970 Student Organization found itself overwhelmed by student representation on various committees. Mr. Noyes welcomed the formation of stu- dent-faculty committees, believing that stu- dents have thus far contributed tremendously to them, and firmly believes that there is room for more student involvement in the com- munity. Students, however, were quite skeptical as to the efficacy of the committees. This was 20 most apparent when the question of maintain- ing a relationship with the Board of Education was raised early in the year. Finally, after many hours of heated discussion among last year’s student deleqates, the Board trustees, the principals from both high schools, and the Phipps administrators, an agreement—the Memorandum of Understanding—was reached and subsequently endorsed by the student gov- ernment of both North and South. Elections were held, and the following Mon- day night student deleqates William Aronstein, Reuben Cohen, and Marc Rosenwasser met a hostile community and an unpredictable Board of Education. The community changed little and the Board became more predictable and sympathetic. The deleqates, as well as serving as student representatives at public meetings, met reaularly in private with the Board. With Dr. Miller, Superintendent; Mr. Abramowitz, Assistant Superintendent for Instruction; and Dr. Sobel. Director of Secondary Instruction, they discussed such topics as Draft Education and Registration, Freedom of Mobility, and Flaq Desecration. The Curriculum Development Council, estab- lished by the 1968 Great Neck Teacher's As- sociation-Board of Education contract, repre- sents an attempt to involve teachers and stu- dents. as well as administrators, in the process of initiating and influencing curriculum change. The CDC has accepted a working definition of curriculum as every experience the child has under the direction of the school and every- thing that the school contrives to shape the life and insiqht of the individual. The scope of the CDC's work is vast, and its members include professionals from all branches of the school system. During its first two years of operation, this FAR LEFT: Mr. M.

As might be expected, red tape con- sumed a considerable amount of time and ef- fort. The CDC has at its disposal certain funds which must be spent on research and development proposals. The proposals, by defi- nition, must relate to curriculum in some way and above all, they must be innovative or ex- perimental in nature. Among the research and development programs that the CDC has im- plemented are: Independent Leaminq Centers at Cumberland School, Improved Diagnostic Techniques at Kensington-Johnson School. Language Arts Tape Recorder Project at Park- ville School, Classroom Libraries at North Jun- ior, and Senior Values Seminars at North Sen- ior. This past year, the council has become more and more interested in developing new basic curricular philosophies designed to meet the needs of a generation that is demanding that its curriculum be relevant to today’s world. Of its twenty-two members, those from North Senior were Dr. Herbert Isaac, Mr. M. Elliot Noyes, and Mr. Daniel Laskin. The Instructional Council, consisting of stu- dents, teachers, and administrators was formed in February. It was designed to review and recommend new methods of instruction. More specifically, the council was charged with de- veloping self-evaluation techniques for teach- ers, implementing new curriculum materials, and involving the district in teacher education and preparation. Alice Friedman and Stephen Messner, both sophomores, served as student representatives. Under the chairmanship of Mr. Kenneth Can- field, the Building Curriculum Group pro- ceeded in much the same way as last year: its most controversial issue being Health. With the pass-fail grading deemed a failure, Mr. Noyes concurred with the recommendation that grades be reinstituted into the Health pro- gram, thus making most sophomores quite un- happy. The three student members, Reuben Cohen, Judy Pollack, and Marc Rosenwasser, voted independently and not as a student bloc. However, the BCG stood unanimous in its attempt to improve communication with North Junior and in its charging the central administration with ignoring the group. Early this year, the S.O. requested student membership on the Building Representation Committee; a group of teachers elected by the faculty to handle any pertinent educational matter including tenure, orientation of new teachers, school rules, and teacher working conditions. While the BRC did agree that some of its discussion included legitimate matters for student concern, they felt that there was not enough to warrant direct student participa- tion. Therefore, a compromise, the Student- Faculty Advisory Board, was proposed. The committee consisted of eight members; four student members and four faculty members. The SFAB concentrated most of its efforts on student evaluation of teachers, conversation study halls during lunch periods, and the avail- ability of outdoor space for students during free time. The student members were Matthew Edlund, Marc Machiz, Judy Pollack, and Rick Reibstein. Mr. Cartee, Mrs. Harrington, Mr. Morrison, and Mr. Porter represented the faculty. In addition to continuing to teach physical education, in his new role Mr. Morrison strived to prevent system-student polarization. His new title, Administrative Assistant for Student- Faculty Relations, succinctly defines his new duty—the improvement of student-administra- tion relations.

Under the leadership of Mr. Lewis Love, the Independent Study Program at North Sen- ior is continuously expanding. This year, the program involved approximately sixty students who pursued various fields of study individually. Independent Study was originally established to aid students who felt that they could com- plete a course in less than the allotted time or who were interested in a subject not offered as a regular school course. A student, if he feels that he is capable, may take Independent Study in lieu of almost any regularly scheduled subject. Course titles ranged from Russian Literature” to The Ecology of a Bog. Under the auspices of the Independent Study Program, several students were able to take courses which were not normally offered at North, Advanced Placement Physics and first year Italian were only two such courses. In addition, the entire group undertook a sociological study of Great Neck and its stu- dents. The Independent Study Program, through the diligent efforts of Mr. Lewis Love and the committee, has become a permanent institu- tion at North. Hopefully, it is the forerunner of future education in Great Neck. Its success depends upon the responsibility of the involved students. So far, the future is bright. 10 -p i-epMf'A) Student Organization The Student Organization, this year worked to become an effective force for educational reform and, although it suffered from an in- difference to school affairs that seemed to affect many students, it nevertheless enjoyed limited success. Many of the SO's educational proposals either died upon reaching the ad- ministration or emerged slowly from the tangles of red tape, However, the SO came closer to its goal of an equal partnership for stu- dents in educational decision-making, as teach- ers and administrators realized that student participation was much more than a short- lived, titillating fad. Early in the year, the student body discarded the outmoded constitution of the General Or- ganization by voting for the new Student Or- ganization constitution. The most significant provision in this document was the establish- ment of a participatory democracy in the Gen- eral Assembly, the SO's main legislative branch. All students who came to General TOP: Dan Laskin. SO President; ABOVE: SO meeting underway in room 7. 25 Assembly meetings were voting members of the Assembly. The new constitution also created a student court to hear complaints and make appropriate recommendations to the administration. The court was disappointingly inactive all year. The SO sponsored the election of student representatives to numerous district-wide and school-wide committees. One student served as a voting member of the Curriculum De- velopment Council, while three were on the Building Curriculum Group. The school system s new Instructional Council seated four student members, two of whom were from North. In addition, the SO chose to continue its relation- ship with the Board of Education and elected three delegates to the Board. The student government initiated discussion which led to the creation of a new committee, the Student-Faculty Advisory Board. This group, composed of four teachers and four students, dealt with a number of important programs. Hopefully, the role of the SFAB will grow until it eventually becomes the chief advisory body to the principal on all matters of school policy. Many people, especially students, have ques- tioned the effectiveness of the seemingly count- less number of committees in the school dis- trict. It is true that students' committees are often slow and inefficient. However, the fact that students have served so well on these groups has improved student-faculty relations and has won greater acceptance of student viewpoints. This year's SO fought continuously to im- prove education in Great Neck. Its proposals were great in number and variety. It strongly supported the establishment of a high school draft counseling program which eventually was instituted by the Board of Education. At the request of the SO. the Board also terminated the school's role in registering students for the draft. Students' freedoms and rights also concerned the SO. For the first time ever, a Student Bill of Rights was written. Also, the SO continued to provide Principal’s Passes and Open-End LEFT: Rick Reibstein, SO Vico President: BELOW LEFT: Marc Rosenwasser. SO Treasurer; BELOW: Reuben Cohen, and Marc Machiz, SO Parliamentarian. Schedule Cards to many students. Although the emphasis of its work was on intra-school affairs, the SO did involve itself in national and community problems. It played a role in organizing activities for Great Neck's October 15th Vietnam War Moratorium. It also sought to obtain greater recognition of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's birthday by making that date a school holiday, and worked with the Human Relations Club in raising money for the Martin Luther King Educational Fund, an organization which helps local disadvantaged children obtain enriching learning experiences. In addition, it sold calendars in order to aid farm workers on strike. 1969-70 was a busy, sometimes-rewarding, sometimes-frustrating year for the SO. Those who chose to become active found that the process of making changes in the educational system is a complex one involving, scores of interesting people, a lot of grief, and a lot of satisfaction. 27 Expression in New Materials Overcoming many obstacles, the Art De- partment at North is aiming to achieve a program which will be within its physical limita- tions as well as up to date. The many recent innovations in the world of art, while increas- ing the possibilities of several courses, have made the need for additional space even more apparent. Corresponding to the need for physical ex- pansion is the need for expressive expansion in the work of each student. Students are no longer satisfied with traditional media and tools. Clay and tempera paint are not the only materials available anymore, and students are becoming aware of the creative possibili- ties offered by such materials as plexiglass and styrofoam. In co-operation with the Industrial Arts Department, many art students also have begun to investigate wood and metal and the opportunities for expression that they pre- sent. In an atmosphere of cramped space and ever-expanding use of new elements (as Mr. Shields says, Plastics are In ), the Art De- partment has managed to unify itself against the odds and encourage students to get in- volved. Mrs. Greta Armstrong, head of department Lloyd Miller Robert Printx L. Robert Shields 30 • • Mr. William Black, head of department Taking Care of Business Few departments in a school have much influence on their students after they have completed a course. Many students feel that these courses are of little value since they forget much of what they have learned soon after the pressures of tests and grading have been eliminated. This, however, is not true of the Business Education Department at North. With a variety of courses ranging from busi- ness law to shorthand, the department can boast of its importance to students and to their work in the adult world. Students may gain valuable office experience through the use of the department's electric typewriters, calculators, and duplicating and dictating ma- chines. This year, the department is experi- menting with its accounting courses. For the first time, future business education majors may study college accounting in their senior year. Plans for next year include a new course in consumer education. Mr. Carl Ring, head of department The Quest for MV 285 The student who takes Driver Ed. needs nerves of steel and a stomach to match. Al- though he may have faith in his own capa- bilities as a driver, there are three other, always inferior, students in the car who find it morbidly amusing to sit in the back and suffer all the near-misses and the convulsive movements the car makes in response to a foot that mistakes the accelerator for the brake. Driver Education, however, is more than parallel parking and 3-point turns. It is the development of skill and confidence acquired through the brave and able efforts of the members of the department. This year the Health Department became the first department in the school to com- pletely change to a pass-fail grading system. Along with this change came the policy of allowing students five cuts per quarter. The juniors, however, who took health first semester, were the only ones able to take this required course pass-fail, as the program was regarded as unsuccessful and the second semester soph- omore health students were graded on an A-E basis. Both students and teachers appeared dis- satisfied with the accomplishments of the first semester. Finally, pressure on the Building Cur- riculum Group caused the reinstitution of a tra- ditional evaluation. Some of the reasons given for the failure of the pass-fail system were that students took advantage of the situation, and that a great enough change in curriculum did not accompany the change in grading. At- tempts by the SO and the Health Committee to reestablish pass-fail are being discussed, and the program may be reinstated next year. In addition to concerning itself with grading, the Health Department has attempted to in- crease the importance of classroom discussions. It has placed more emphasis on the topics of alcoholism, drug abuse, and tobacco, as well as adding a unit on ecology. Although many problems still exist, the health program is on its way to becoming one of the more interesting and relevant subjects taught at North. Health Experiments With Pass-Fail Mr . Barbara Hayne , head of department L. Dennis Burden Gregory Doonan John Thomas ‘«i i Reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man, and writing In almost all fields of study, effective com- munication is essential. The ability to express oneself and interpret others is the key to a successful education. This is the goal of the English Department of Great Neck North. The study of grammar, practice in composition, and the selection of reading materials now de- pend on the desires and needs of each individ- ual class rather than on a set curriculum. Re- alizing that not all students have the same abilities and interests, the English Department has instituted Basic. Honors, and Advanced Placement classes to enhance required studies. A wide selection of pass-fail electives for seniors, including Shakespeare, Modern Drama. an exact man — Bacon Modern Fiction end Poetry, Modern Japanese Literature, Creative Writing, The Black Ex- perience in Literature, and The Film, added a needed variety of subject offerings. These ten-week electives were also open to faculty members. Opportunity for extra help was given to those students who needed improvement in reading abilities: the Reading Skills elective and the reading center, geared to the individual, dealt with the student on a more personal level. The school-wide shift in emphasis from a class learning experience to an individual one was greatly aided by the English Department's ef- forts and leadership in the elective program. Ronald Patty Elizabeth Tarlau Florence Rapoport 'Sil Edna Welling Home Ec: Family, Fashions and Food Some of the most useful and practical courses offered at North are part of the Home Economics Department. The intricate worlds of fashion, design, interior decorating, and dietetics are explored in the department's own kitchens and furnished apartment. There is a Bachelors' Arts course designed especially for boys, where the students acquire skills needed for those years when they may be out on their own. Each year the students invite guests to a large dinner given in the school apartment. This gives them the experience of entertaining in their own home. Sewing projects made by the students dur- ing the school year are modeled by the girls during the annual fashion show and are on display each spring in the Arts and Science festival. Mrs. Vera Sears Miss Helen Bell, head of department Industrial Arts: Practical Craftsmanship Mr. George Petrakis, head of department Gerard Denzer For many students the only outlet from an otherwise purely academic environment is of- fered by the Industrial Arts Department. There is nothing more self-satisfying than man's ability to create with his mind through the medium of his hands; the Industrial Arts De- partment offers this chance for creativity. A common complaint of students at North is that subjects offered by the school are often irrelevant to their present and future lives. Contrary to this view is the obvious relevancy of the classes offered by the In- dustrial Arts Department. Many of the students are enrolled in several of these classes, and a number will go on after high school to direct the knowledge they have acquired toward a full-time job. For these students, the industrial arts techniques they have learned will unde- niably play a large role in their future lives. Industrial arts is a field which will benefit any individual, no matter what his future oc- cupation. To the student who intends to enter the fields of metal or woodworking, high school industrial arts is an invaluable part of his education. The art student too, in recent years, has found that the ability to use the hand and power tools in the shop is some- thing which can be a vital part of his work. Students, both male and female, who intend to study in fields completely unrelated to in- dustrial arts also find this department's courses exciting and fun. as well as useful. 37 'uu ncstu. Studentoj Lemas Variajn Lingvojn Le dlpartement des langues, $ I'ecole secondaire du quartier nord de Great Neck, offre une grande variete de cours de langues anclenne et modernes. A prlsent, les efeves peuvent y suivre des cours de latin, de frar ais, d' espagnol, de russe et d'allemand, et il est probable que dans un proche avenir on aioutera des cours d'italien et d'hSbreu au programme. Parni les etudiants, nombreux sont ceux qui apprennent une langue £trang re ind£- pendemment, comme faisant partie du Independent Study Project. II faut dire aussi que I'esperanto, la langue universelle, est en train d' y devenir de plus en plus populaire. El Departamento de Lenguas en G.N.N.S. ofrece una gran variedad de idiomas antiguas y modernas. En Ja actualidad ofrecen asignaturas en latin, francos, espalTbl, ruso y aleman y hay la posibilidad de que tambien sean agregados al plan de estudios hebreo e italiano. En adicidn, muchos alumnos estan estudiando otros lenguas en un programa de estudios independientes. Un ejemplo de esto es esperanto, idioma universal, que esta cre- dendo en popularidad.

Mr. Kenneth Canfield, head of department 39 A Plethora Of Proofs The Mathematics Department is a distin- guished accomplishment in diversification. It manages to reach students on all levels, and provides for the exceptional student by offer- ing advanced placement mathematics. By the time the student reaches his senior year, he is ready for one of two college level courses offered. For those who wish to broaden their background in math, two electives are offered: Matrix Algebra and Vector Analysis, and Prob- abilities and Statistics. The student can also choose to take math on the independent study program. Available to those who desire help, the Math Center is staffed by competent student aides who are always willing to assist. Originally set up for remedial purposes, the center has also become a meetinq place for aspiring mathe- maticians who wish to discuss math problems with teachers and other students. New programs for next year are uncertain. The department hopes to bring teaching to a more individual level in order to aid the stu- dents who need assistance in math. A numeri- cal analysis elective using the computer may also be offered. These proposals will enhance an already excellent Math Department. Robert Burggraf Rudolph Kemmer Dr. Hebert Isaac, head of department 40 r Beverly Schill Philip Sorgen Stanley Winston Those who intend to become serious musicians as well as those who wish to participate in musi- cal activities for pure enjoyment take advantage of the many opportunities offered by the Music Department at North. In addition to the variety of vocal and instrumental programs available, the department offers more specialized courses such as Developing Musicianship, which deals with theory and composition, and Discovery of Music, which introduces the student to var- ious types of music. Several students have written large-scale compositions on an inde- pendent study basis, many of which have been performed. Although most of the vocal and instrumental groups such as the Band, Orchestra, and A Capella meet on a regular scheduled basis, others, such as the Stage Band and Boys Choir meet after school or on a rotational schedule. Their members perform several times during the year, in school assemblies as well as in formal concerts. Mr. Bruce Thompson Dr. Alvin Pinter, heed of department Mr. Raymond Olsen, head of department All The World s A Stage” Great Neck North is one of the few high schools in the country that provides a major sequence in speech and drama. All aspects of speech and the stage are explored in the Speech Department's numerous electives. Students interested in effective oral com- munication may take advantage of Speech for Public Life. Broadcasting, or Speech for Per- sonal Improvement. For students needing help with diction or other speech problems, there is Speech Correction. Those interested in the theater, whether on stage or off, may study Theater Arts Appre- ciation, Scenery Design and Construction, or Acting. The Department also works closely with Junior Players, and assists them with the two full-length plays and other productions staged during the year. Mr. Willard Scope 43 New Equipment Stimulates Science Students Although the North Senior Science Depart- ment has not undergone any major change over the years, it has been able to meet the varied needs of the students enrolled in its courses. While most people follow the standard program of Regents courses in biology, chem- istry. and physics, several other sequences are available. The accelerated science program, de- signed for unusually able students, culminates in advanced placement courses in chemistry and biology, conducted at the college level. Advanced Placement Physics is now given through the Independent Study program. For non-college orientated students, there is a three year sequence of general science, biological science, and physical science. A significant development in the Science De- partment has been the restructuring of the earth science course. The course is not a study of rocks, explained Tony Tuori, department head. It includes work in oceanography, me- teorology, and astronomy, subject matter which is often more immediately relevant to students than those areas covered in other science courses. A newly acquired stream table will help dramatize the process of erosion. Hope- fully, the earth science course will assume a greater role in North's science program, and may eventually become a mandatory course. The work in other courses has been kept equally interesting and up-to-date through the pur- chase of such equipment as a laser for physics, and a spectrometer for the analysis of chemical solutions. Mr. Tony Tuori, head of department Social Studies: Experimentation in Electives Chronological history and social studies are no longer synonymous terms in the Social Studies Department at Great Neck North. The new eleventh and twelfth grade programs are now stressing the compre- hension of the attitudes and movements of a particular culture and society rather than just the memorization of names and dates. Instead of following a traditional chrono- logical approach to American history, as the advanced placement course does, jun- iors now view the country's past as the development of certain institutions. The understanding of why events occurred is being emphasized in the study of politics, economics, religion, society, and culture. Current events and their relationship to past events are also being explored in the social studies courses. As an experiment last year, four eleventh grade classes were involved in this insti- 46 tutional approach to history. This year, these students were permitted to choose a minimum of two of the half year courses (Sociology. Latin American Studies. Urban Problems, and International Relations), or the full year Great Issues or Economics course to meet the twelfth year social studies requirement. The students who were not in the experimental program last year enrolled in American Problems Today, Basic Social Studies, Great Issues, or Economics and were able to choose any of the half year courses as electives in addition to their full year courses. Next year, all seniors will be taking combinations of the half year courses. An- thropology, Sociology, Economics, Applied Social Studies. Comparative Government, and Ethnic and Minority Groups in Ameri- can Life are some of the courses which might be offered in the future. • 48 Blood, Sweat And Tears Providing a needed break in the academic routine of the day, Physical Education is one of the few required courses at North. As sophomores and juniors, all students are ex- posed to a variety of team sports such as football, soccer, hockey, basketball, volleyball, baseball and lacrosse. Individual sports such as tennis, golf, archery and modern dance are stressed more in the senior year. The depart- ment also sponsors a wide variety of intra- mural and inter-scholastic activities, and most students take advantage of a least one after- school athletic program. The elective system, which has become part of almost all other departments in the school, may soon be implemented in gym as well. This program, which would have a large selection of team, individual, and dance activities, would allow students to choose their favorite sports and free them from requirements in those they may not enjoy.

In addition to the massive college-student computer matching and the more recent innovation of unlimited applications, the department introduces students to various summer study programs and vocational possibilities. More common problems, such as schedule changes and the choosing of a well-rounded academic program, are also handled by the depart- ment. The plan for draft counseling, a particu- larly controversial subject this year, was finally approved by the Board of Educa- tion. Such counseling, which will be handled by the Guidance Department, will provide information about the Selective Service System and other pertinent facts for boys approaching draft age.

Reuben Cohen, Administration Edi- tor. 54 Of all the writing in the book, ARISTA copy is the easiest to fake and the one that I would like to be most sincere. I could get away with the expected—the endless weekends before deadlines that are already days late, the acute lack of money, pictures and patience, the basic aspect of the yearbook as a two or three man show—but the less said about the experiences common to probably all yearbook editors, the better. Nor will I attempt to ex- plain what I tried to accomplish with ARISTA 1970: that is irrelevant, as you are holding the outcome of my efforts, and must look at the book and take from it what you will regardless of my intentions. If nothing else, the staff of ARISTA 70 is worth mentioning. Mady Meyer, Sue Bitensky. and Carol Bloch can attest to the undying faith that some of us never lost. We spent many hours waiting for others who had no sense of responsibility towards ARISTA or their co-workers. As with spoiled infants, their immediate needs and wants came before any- thing and or anyone. There is a lot of work involved in putting out a yearbook, and if one is interested only in gaininq an editorship or putting something down on a college applica- tion, it is unfair to plague the yearbook and its staff with one’s own incompetencies and irre- sponsibilities. I have a feeling that one of the photo editors and his fair-ha red companion will find it hard to become functioning, contrib- uting adults after living so long as noisy pre- tenders. However, just as there were those who make one doubt the dedication of youth, there were others who helped renew one's faith. After working with Mady a whole year, I can think of no action of hers that can be con- strued as anything but completely honest and UPPER LEFT: Lee Deane. Photography Editor: LEFT: Cliff Walzer.

Joan Gildin Spring. 1970 56 VOL XL - NO. 13 GREAT NECK, NEW YORK '69-70 Sees G P Changes By STEVE RATTNER GUIDE POST began the year confronted bv the usual problems of a new staff lacking experience. Partly because of the method of operation last year, few of this year’s staff members had any sig- nificant amount of journalistic ex- perience. At first, even the more experienced staff members lacked the technical knowledge needed to produce a good newspaper. Although not originally intended to do so, the first three issues of the year ironed out many of the layout, headline, and copy prob- lems that were plaguing the paper. Unfortunately, the staff, which was elected last April, also proved to be a problem necessitating resolu- tion. Several important changes were made, after which GUIDE POST began to attain some sem- blance of a newspaper. Liberally sprinkled with articles dealing with draft counseling, stu- dent apathy, moratoriums, and education. GUIDE POST clearly committed itself to educational and political reform. Editorial support of student-ad- ministration dialogue helped main- tain essential communication. In the hope of improving the educa- tional experience at North, editor- ials also commented on such issues as seminars, health education, and the student court. Feature and news pages also contained numer- ous articles dealing with educa- tional goals at North. Issue 9 was almost entirely filled with ar- ticles concerning education both at North and in general. Politically, for the first time, GUIDE POST supported a Viet- Skip Cohen, Associate Business Manager and Ross Levine, Business Manager.

In addition to editorials condoning the October and November moratoriums, four full pages were devoted to cover- age of the demonstrations. The sports page increased its coverage of North sports. A regu- lar column, “The Bouncing Ball,” dealt with such topics as the school physical education program and college sports. In addition to the usual regular coverage of the ma- jor sports, this year’s sports de- partment inaugurated coverage of several other sports such as cross country, indoor track, and girls’ sports. Photo by Deane Nathan Shaffer, Editor-in-Chief Photo by Deane One of the major changes in the format of GUIDE POST was the increase in the number of pages published. Instead of last year’s four and six-page issues, six and eight-page newspapers were print- ed this year. Eight page issues have the advantage of containing a center spread. These were used to include several innovative lay- outs such as the Christmas issue. Because of the increased size of the publication, the number and size of the photographs were in- creased, and photographic essays were published on a regular basis. It is the purpose of GUIDE POST to provoke as well as in- form. This year’s GUIDE POST contained an agreeable mixture of serious articles dealing with po- litical or educational issues and light articles such as reviews and satires. In this manner, the readers were entertained while, at the same time, important ideas were pre- sented for their consideration. As Dan Laskin commented at the be- ginning of the year, this is “the year of awareness.” It is to this end that GUIDE POST has been dedicated. Bob Taffet.

Ross Levine Associate Business Monager Skip Cohen Circulation Manager Paul Fellenbaum Published bi-weekly by the students of Great Neck North Senior High School Sponsor Mr. Clifford Cobb Principal Mr. M. Elliot Noyes Education for Today During the year, GUIDE POST has vigorously insisted that the educational experience at North is unsatisfactory. Even now, as we leave and have already left school, our opinion has not changed. Fundamentally, administrators, teachers and students have failed to distinguish between the process of education itself and the use of education for selection and certification. Certification and selec- tion, primarily for college, necessitate evaluation, grading, and ranking, which unlike criticism, properly have no place in edu- cation. Instead of realizing the vast possibilities of this country's ex- pansive educational system, we are immersed in the sandbox-Ph.D. rat-race, constantly being reminded and constantly reminding our- selves that our present education is only a preparation for the suc- cessful negotiation of the next hurdle. We compete, and, by the end of high school, become curricular and extra-curricular drudges, wasting time that should be given to education becoming acceptable candidates for the next stage. High school is now over, but the race has scarcely begun. We will arrive in graduate school and then we will be told that our true education lies behind us, and that we can now prepare for our careers. Clearly, something has gone wrong. Addressing him- self to this problem. Columbia professor of Philosophy Robert Paul Woff writes, The answer is simple: Each present was sacrificed to the future, until the presents were all past, and the future an empty present.” This is the grim reality of education today. The most significant ramification of student unrest and dis- satisfaction in Great Neck has been the serious evaluation of this community's competitive grading philosophy by a student faculty- administration committee. The Superintendent's Committee on Marking and Grading recognized that grade motivation is detri- mental to learning and that a credit non-credit system should re- place letter grades. Those who will remain at North will hope- fully secure its implementation. In large measure, the failure of the high school can be traced to the absence of a coherent philosophy other than that of getting students into college. Does the high school have intrinsic value as an institution of education? We think it does, though we were constantly led to believe that it doesn't. It is imperative that we break now the whole future orientation of education so that it can take place here and now, in a spirit of free exploration and dis- covery. 60 Photo by Deane Che looking _ ylaio 1970 Man: In Search of a Destiny By NATHAN SHAFFER and RONALD KRAUSS We finally escaped. Or did we? High school is over, at least we can he sure of that. Elementary school and recess. Junior high with ludicrous status symbols and parties. Senior high with class rank, SAT’s and college pressure. And already the memory is worn. The mind works quickly, efficiently romanticizing the dis- jointed impressions of youth. That youth has paled imperceptibly all along. Now we glimpse the shad- ows of our disembodied former selves fading away. So we’re out. Now we go on most of us onward and upward in search of success. College, med ical school, M.D. Relieve the suf fering. College, law school, attor ney-at-law. Defend the rights of the people. College, at least a year or two, marriage, babies. How many? Raise children to appre- ciate learning. College, graduate school, teaching. Help students to learn to become doctors, lawyers, good parents and teachers. The cycle is self-perpetuating and indeed it must continue if man is to maintain a civilized society. But because this cycle of existence might be necessary for the sur- vival of an advanced human spe- cies, that does not mean that peo- ple will unhesitatingly play the parts expected of them. The facts of human existence, and of life itself, have not yet been reconciled by the restless and rebellious with the accepted order of things. High school’s end will not mollify the existential crises that were deadly serious for many this year. The next few years will be critical in our lives, but to those coping with the unanswer- able questions of the human con- dition, the pains of life will only be amplified. It is inevitable that as man’s' knowledge of the natural universe increases, he will search to find a plane of existence higher than that which he now occupies. Not content with a society grounded in self-indulgent material desires, man’s quest for a new order will soon reach a point from which three pathways will diverge. The pre-occupation with sense- staggering drugs and the intro- spective Eastern religions might constitute one path to the Nirvana man desperately seeks. But hu- manity would be committing so- cietal suicide pursuing an ideal dangerous to civilization as we know it, and progress as we con- ceive it. A second path might be tech- nological development. The cyber- netic state, however, while increas- ing man’s comfort, will not alone resolve man’s essential estrange- ment from nature and his aliena- tion from himself. But there is a middle path, one which man must follow to achieve a new understanding of his place in the universe. Man must be- come introspective and self-criti- cal. Yet his new insights will be valuable only if applied to the reality of the natural world. These new values, combined with a burgeoning technology, will lead man to that higher plane of exis- tence. Man must continue to strive to- wards his true destiny, a destiny which awaits him in the infinite. For one day, in the looking-glass of eternity, Man will find himself one with the Universe.

It has grown from a relatively unknown club with a few members to an organization which has participated in several activities in- cluding a skate drive and lectures by several speakers. The major purpose of Teenagers-Pitch-ln is to work cooperatively with the Police Athletic League in the Bronx. Members of the club devote a few Saturdays each month to the supervision of children from PAL. The children are taken on excursions around the metropoli- tan area to various points of interest. Satur- day trips this year have included a visit to Flushing Meadow Park and an ice-skating ex- pedition to Rockefeller Center. TAPI is an organization which has refused to recognize the existence of student apathy, and has provided rewarding and exciting ex- periences to many Great Neck North students.

The red fox plunges through the hemlock like the leaf of the sycamore in September. The deer waits like a teardrop. You will have two reasons, one of a beast, one of a child.

This year, the Human Relations Club has tried to focus attention on the problems of the Great Neele community. Club members discovered new facets of life in Great Neck. They became aware of community problems such as local families on welfare, and they at- tended meetings of various groups such as the Coalition for Better Housing. The 1969-1970 officers changed the for- mat of the club somewhat. Attendance was never taken, and meetings were more sporadic and informal than they had ever been. Em- phasis was not on bi-weekly meetings, but on involvement in various drives and other club activities. The annual work-weekend was combined with the club’s first Craft Sale. Supported by both students and faculty, the sale was a huge suc- cess. True to the club's goal of helping the community, the members decided to donate the money to Carousel and Headstart. Representatives of the club became familiar sights as they collected money for the Hankin- son Fund, sold candy and buttons for the Mar- tin Luther King Education Fund, and enlisted the co-operation of other students to keep the school clean. Many members helped out after school in local projects such as the Great Neck Study Hall. Carousel, and the Baker Hill Program. A club is only as good as the amount of work its members are willing to put into it; most were willing to get involved in local problems and most found their work very rewarding. 64 65 Junior Junior Players opened Great Neck North's theatrical season with a production of John Gordon s You're a Good Man Charlie Brown. The abridged version, performed as an as- sembly program for the senior and junior high schools, was received with great enthusiasm. Starring were Glen Agrin as Charlie Brown, and Abbe Steinberg as Lucy, with Elliot Kass, Dennis Gidseg, Jane Needle and Robert Gur- vih rounding out the cast. The production, di- rected by Roy Weiss and Elliot Kass, was en- hanced by the music of Sam Reiff and James Roberts, and the superb sets and lighting pro- vided by Eric Siskind and Leslie Kass. For its fall play. JP presented an excellent production of You Know I Can't Hear You When the Water's Running, by Robert An- derson. The play consisted of four playlets, one of which was borrowed by the senior Values Committee as part of the discussion of Sexual Values Today. Entitled I'll be Home for Christ- mas. it is the story of middle-aged parents whose ideas differ on the sexual values they feel they should impart to their children. The cast consisted of Glen Agrin. Abbe Steinberg and Jane Aronin. Another playlet.

Sam Reiff, Elliot Kass, Linda Bernstein, and Roy Weiss all added to this portrayal of a behind-the-scenes fight be- tween a playwright and his producer. The Footsteps of Doves, portrayed by Dennis Posen, Ruth Epstein, David Kahn, and Robin Good, is the story of a turning point in the lives of a middle-aged couple as they shop for a bed. The last playlet, I'm Herbert, showed an elderly couple in the advanced stages of senility. The two characters were played by Gary Kanner and Cathy Schreiber. The lighting and stage design for all four playlets were done by Eric Siskind, Leslie Kass and Richard Schwartz, and the show was di- rected by Mr. Ray Olsen and student director Nancy Wasserman. Dennis Gidseg was produc- tion manager. Boticelli, by Terence McNally, was per- formed for Viet-Nam day by Elliot Kass, Glen Agrin, and Robert Chertoff. It is the story of two young college graduates stationed in a foxhole in Viet-Nam. This powerful drama ex- presses strong anti-war feelings, and was an integral part of the day's events. Edgar Lee Master’s, Spoon River Anthology, adapted for the stage by Clifton Fadiman, was presented by Junior Players on January 8. It is the tale of a town and several interpreta- tions of life as told from the grave. Many un- usual and experimental theatrical techniques were employed by the cast of fifty. With light- ing and stage settings by Siskind and Kass, the play was directed by Mr. Olsen and stu- dent director Glen Agrin. Tonight at 8:30, by Noel Coward, was orig- inally written as nine one-act plays to be per- formed on three consecutive nights, but JP chose three to make up its spring production. The first, Red Peppers, is a witty satire on stage life. The playlet, concerning vaudeville, starred Dennis Gidseg, Jane Aronin, Richard Parnes, Elliot Kass and Abbe Steinberg. Shad- ow Play was another satirical sketch on mar- riage and romance, as was We Were Danc- ing, which involved a woman and her new flame. Throughout the year, JP provided not only an activity for the theatrically inclined, but also was a source of entertainment for the school and the community as a whole.

Male participation reached a peak, as boys made up one-third of the club member- ship. The eighteen club members constitute the largest membership Terpsichore has en- joyed in several years. One of the school's most challenging artistic outlets. Terpsichore enhanced many school ac- tivities throughout the year. The club partici- pated in the Mass Media Values Seminar for seniors, reacting to and with a film and live music, and members were involved in the En- vironmental Crisis Seminar, interpreting the crisis through the language of dance. In ad- dition to helping out with the Seminars, Terpsi- chore held its annual club performance. En- titled Gimcracks and Bibelots.” it included a dance in which black light illuminated different parts of the dancer’s body. This performance, which surpassed all those of previous years, was also put on at North Junior High and Baker Hill Schools. Terpsichore is no longer just a modern dance club. Movement is used to express emotions and thoughts. As President Amy Bauman pas- sionately put it, Dance is the very stuff of life.” Key Club ROW I: James Kay. Mitch Ostrer, Robert Rifkin. Andy Aaron.

North's only vic- tory came against the Mustangs of Mineola. No single reason can be given for North’s unsuccessful record. Rather, a combination of injuries and a lack of unity on both the offen- sive and defensive teams spelled defeat. An offense which averaged just 8.4 points a game was hampered by a very limited pass- ing attack and weak blocking on the offensive line. This lack of passing also held back the running game. The defensive squad was vulnerable to both running and passing attacks and yielded an average of 28.8 points per game. The Blazer secondary was especially weak as opposing quarterbacks such as De Costanza of Clarke and Beck of Port Washington repeatedly passed for first downs during key third down situations.

The following week, the Rebels of South, after losing to North ten consecutive times, routed the Blazers 34-6. Brian McCarthy paced the visitors as he amassed over 200 years rushing and scored 28 points. North next fell victim to Port Washing- ton and Bethpage. While the Vikings to- tally outclassed the Great Neck team 36-6, Bethpage had to withstand a ferocious sec- ond-half North rally to win 20-12. Coming back home with a tremendous number of injuries, North defeated Mineola 33-28 for its first win. Quarterback Ed Kuebler had a tremendous day, completing three touchdown passes. Ezra Swerdlow, who was Great Neck North’s one con- sistent offensive star, rushed for 109 yards and scored two touchdowns. Mineola ral- lied late in the contest but an interception by Fred Zausner in the final minute pre- served the victory. North was unable to maintain its mo- mentum and dropped its final three games to Garden City, Plainview, and Farming- dale. After a disappointing 1-7 season, the Blazers can look forward to next season with the hope that the eighteen returning lettermen can put together a squad pos- sessing the unity that the Blazers lacked this year.

Although the team eventually over- came this factor, it was too late in the season and North had to settle for a third place finish in its division. From the outset, the Hammerheads were faced with the problem of establishing a co- hesive team. Hindered by the graduation of eight members of last year’s North Shore Championship team, the Hammerheads had to rely on returning players Al Juble. John Zimmerman. Cliff Walzer. Larry Rothstein, Carl Cavrell. Peter Blatman. and Bob Daitz to pro- vide the nucleus for this year’s team. During their non-league games, the Hammer- heads showed a lack of unity in their forward wall. Despite this weakness, they were able to topple Herricks. Seaford. Westbury. and Island Trees, all of which were considered out- standing teams. North’s biggest pre-season test was against Oceanside, the team which had defeated the Hammerheads in the county finals last year. Although the Hammerheads were determined to reverse the outcome of last year's county finals, they were beaten by Oceanside's more experienced team. The Hammerheads got off to a slow start in league play, dropping their first two games to Garden City and Port Washington. Ignoring the fact that their chances for a successful season were low, the players' morale did not drop, and in their third league game, the 91 ABOVE: Coach Liquori; LEFT: John Pacht on defense as Bob Daitz watches from goal.

With their confi- dence restored, they went on to defeat Great Neck South, and Plainview once more. The Booters' performance was at a peak when they faced Mineola. In perhaps the finest game ever played on North's soccer field, the Hammerheads, displaying the unity and team- work of a true championship team, over- powered a tough Mineola club. The most sig- nificant factor in North's victory was the out- standing one-to-one coverage by Hammerhead Louis Kleinman of Mineola's super-star, Jurgen Striffler. Kleinman held Striffler scoreless, and North's offense took advantage of the situation to salvage the win. North's winning streak ended at this point. Two strong teams. Garden City and Port Wash- ington. tied the Hammerheads. Although they exhibited the unified team play that was evi- dent in their victories, they were unable to successfully penetrate the defenses of their opposition. Completing their season by crushing the Rebels of South, the Hammerheads finished with a 9-3-2 record. Coach Liquori and Cap- tains Larry Rothstein, Cliff Walzer, and John Zimmerman felt that, although they did not reach the county playoffs, the season had been relatively successful. In each of the three games in which they were defeated. North lost by only one goal. The Hammerheads can look forward to a superior season next year. Although they will be losing Al Juble. first string all-County and John Zimmerman, all-division, as well as nine other seniors, the Hammerheads anticipate the return of all-North Shore player Carl Cavrell, other varsity players, and a number of players from the junior varsity team. - • - s - - A� - 92 r i L J . oc� S.JS:S$ , 4ft..

Under the leadership of Mr. Martin Bennett, the Blazers worked and performed as a team. Coach Bennett received help from experienced Captain Paul Good, who was playing his fourth year as a varsity standout. Mike Fishbach. a sophomore, and Ricky Meyer, a freshman, provided unusual talent for the powerful Netmen. As always, the only competition for North proved to be the Great Neck South squad. The first time the two teams met. the second doubles team of Orin Wonder- man and Mike Kornblum clinched the vic- tory for North by defeating their Southern counterparts in three sets, taking the last one 9-7. The second match between North and South saw the Blazers roll to a crush- ing 5-2 victory. Led by Mike Fishbach. Captain Good, and seniors Harry Britwar and Mike Korn- blum, the Netmen ended their regular sea- son with a superb record of twelve wins and no losses, and were favored to win the county championship. In the first round of the tournament, Great Neck defeated Syosset 6-1. Fish- bach, who had ranked third nationally last year, played with tendonitis in his right hand and had to default his match after leading 6-4. 2-0. This was the first loss of the season. In the second round, North again met Great Neck South. This time, however, the Rebels had the momentum. The Netmen experienced trouble early in the match as their first doubles team of Britwar and Bernstein lost to Ziegler and Cummings of South in a mild upset. The Blazers struck back by taking second doubles as Mike Kornblum, unequaled in three years of competition, and Orin Wonderman won easily. South then took the upper hand as Captain Good lost in a closely contested match. Bobby Meyer, favored to win, lost out in the third singles spot. With three matches to play, darkness set in and the meet was postponed to the following day. Down 3-1, singles players Fishbach and Meyer triumphed to even the contest at 3-3. This left the outcome up to the third doubles team of Manus and Jaffe. In two hard-fought sets, South’s team of Stone and Struhl won 6-3, 6-2, and ended North s hopes for the coveted county crown. The Blazers, disappointed with their loss, felt they were still the better team. The squad deserves much praise for its fine showing this year. First-year coach Mr. Bennett performed a remarkable iob as he pulled together and reunited a pre- viously fragmented team. His adaptability and understanding produced the cohesive- ness needed to make the team as great as it was. TENNIS: KNEELING: J. lapook.-H. Britwar. P. Good. M. Kornblum. STANDING: A. Goldfarb. J.

Most people would consider running Ufa miles every single day quite insane. Not these 16. They were Great Neck North’s 1969 Cross Country Team. Led by Mr. Carl Ring, this team finished with the best Cross Country win-loss record since 1961. They won 4 out of 6 meets. Both defeats were extremely close, hard fought battles, lost to division champs Bethpage and cross-town rivals Great Neck South. Some say it was caused by the team's overcon- fidence; others don't say anything at all. Rebounding from these two losses, North went on to win the next three meets. In post-season competition, North was weak in starting but came back the following week to win 4th place in the County Championships. Bob Landon, who was one of the seven runners representing Nassau County in the State Championships, and Cliff Kosoff, Ira Mandel, Bob Shea and senior co-cap- tain Jeff Berg led the team. Other runners, equally important, included senior co-cap- tain Drew Slater, juniors Mike Smigelsky, Glenn Porcelain and senior Neal Rosen- berg. Though the season was quite successful, North expects to be even more success- ful next year as most of the other teams should feel the impact of losing many of their star seniors. Only one of North's top five men is graduating. If North can find a fifth man, the division champion- ship, the county championship, and even the State Championship Competition may be within its grasp. Whether North can fulfill its potential remains to be seen. 96 Indoor Track Great Neck North’s Indoor Track team was ham- pered severely once again by an acute lack of facil- ities. Having been denied permission to practice in the Junior High Gym, the team was forced to prac- tice in the halls. Despite these difficulties, the team's coach, Mr. Carl Ring, did his best to make practices worthwhile. The many hardships encountered by the team did not pre- vent them from making many brilliant showings. Cap- tain Bob Landon broke his own school record in the mile, turning in a fantastic time of 4:29.3. Doing quite well this year was junior Cliff Kosoff, his best time being 2:26 for the 1000. Contributing to the team’s long distance strength was Bob Shea, who turned in a good mile time of 4:57. Stu Rosen- blatt added greatly to the team’s scoring potential by coming in first in the high hurdles in every meet. Stu did a fine job in the counties, placing 4th. and was also our star high jumper. Glenn Porcelain, a junior, also contributed greatly by placing either first or second in the 600 at all meets. Glenn's best time was 1:23.7. Giving the team great strength in the sprinting events were Bob Kramerson and John Duckworth. Loss of two very good long distance runners, Ira Mandel and Mike Smigelsky, because of illness, hurt the team's depth severely. Lacking good facilities and de- void of any true backing from the school, the team pro- duced a record this year which was not truly represent- ative of the ability of either the team or Mr. Ring.

Of the three players who returned from last year's championship, only Flip Shapiro had any appreciable game experience. However, along with the seniors fine play, the rise of junior power brought unexpected success to this young and inex- perienced team. Morrison's Marauders began the season with wins in six of their first seven games. Their only loss came in the second game of the season with a highly rated Syosset team. In these games, all the members showed that they could make a valuable contribution to the team’s success. Al Kummer and Matt Schoenberg, the other returning seniors, added their experience to Shapiro’s and aided in the Blazers' attack. Juniors Bill Brown, Ron Baron, and Donny Ein- sidler became regulars in the front court, while Fred Zausner. Rich Jaffe, and Al Epstein con- trolled the backcourt positions. Sophomore Henry Miklas showed promise as a tough cen- ter. As the season continued, the Blazers' rec- ord dropped to nine wins and five defeats. More losses to Bethpage and Plainview dropped the team into second place in the North Shore II League. A dramatic change overcame the Blazers in their game against Port Washington. After trailing by 18 late in the third quarter, the Blazers came back to win with a score of 72-68. Following this game, the Blazers won one of the most exciting games of the year. North beat Bethpage 53-48 in double over- time as Flip Shapiro. Matt Schoenberg, and Bill Brown showed outstanding qualities. The Blazers finished their regular season with wins over Mineloa and Great Neck South. The regu- lar season record was 13-5.

Captain Flip Shap- iro led the Blazers with 18 points as North won 44-39. North then met Westbury, the number one seeded team on the North Shore. In one of the great games of the tournament, North defeated Westbury 56-52. Schoenberg and Shapiro led the Blazers, scoring 14 points each. Bill Brown had 13 rebounds and Rich Jaffe added 10 points and 10 rebounds. Donny Einsidler and Ron Baron acted well defensively as they guarded Westbury's star Dennis Dubai with a special defense designed by Coach Bob Morrison. Competing in the semi-finals of the North Shore Playoffs, the Blazers met Carle Place at the Island Garden Arena. North pulled ahead to a commanding halftime lead, led by the sharp shooting of Flip Shapiro and the hard work of Bill Brown and Matt Schoenberg. The second half saw a stunning change in mo- mentum. North, continually hampered by Carle Place's full court press, was forced into fre- quent and costly turnovers leading to easy lay ups for the Carle Place Cagers. Carle Place’s implementation of the press, along with North's cold shooting, enabled them to overcome the Blazers' half time lead and crush their hopes for a second consecutive County Champion- ship with a 60-52 defeat. The strong junior players on this year's team should be a backbone for another good sea- son, and possibly a County Championship in 71. 99 FAR LEFT: Flip Shapiro drives for an easy layup: LEFT: Fred Zausner jumps from the side- BELOW; Shapiro dribb'es down court.

Starting off strong, the swimmers overturned South in a close and hotly contested meet. South led from the beginning until the North swimmers overtook them in the last relay. The Aquamen went on to overtake Bethpage and Westbury. Injuries and illness struck several swimmers, sapping the strength of the team, Captain Dan Wartenberg missed more than half the season due to sickness and a knee injury. Cap- tain Conrad Dombrowsky, along with Mitch Hoffman and sophomore Skip Golden were also incapacitated by sickness. Recovering to- wards the end of the season, the team regis- tered wins against Cold Spring Harbor and Wantagh. Next year the Aquamen will be looking to freshmen Dave Leesser. Rich Blass. Jeff Harvis, and Sophomore Bob Goldhirsch to help strengthen the team.

The Grapplers finished in a tie for last place in the Division II standings. One of the reasons for this was that there were only two returning lettermen, junior Mitch Ostrer and senior Joel Kolen. The team opened its season losing to three of the best teams on the South Shore. How- ever, the wrestlers came back to win two non- divisional matches. North defeated Lynbrook, coming from behind by winning three of the last four bouts. They also won against Wheat- ley. Going into divisional competition with high hopes, the Matmen were upset in their first five matches. The Grapplers, in their final di- vision match, upset third place Plainview. This seemed to be the high point of the season for the team, as many wrestlers made out- standing contributions to this morale-lifting vic- tory for North. The season was climaxed by a trouncing victory over Southside. North's lack of experience proved to be the major factor in the disappointing record exhibited by the team this year. This, how- ever, should not overshadow the excellent in- dividual performances by certain wrestlers. Mike Wekselblatt was undefeated and un- scored upon in regular season North Shore competition, and Joel Kolen excelled in one of the most difficult weight classes this year. Wekselblatt and Kolen. alonq with Don Suss- man. took third place in the Division II tourna- ment. Fourth place finishes were gained by Mike Sternesky, Dave Gruen and freshman Abby Boskoff. Although this was a difficult season, next year looks more promising. Grapplers Hampered by Inexperience WRESTLING TEAM: KNEELING: H. Welkin. G. Lethem. D. Aaron, R. Tornberg. M. Ostrer. M.

The outlook for Great Neck North s baseball team appears bright. Although the team has had some problems over the past few seasons, it seems to have finally acquired the balance of players needed for a sound team. There are eight returning lettermen, in- cluding outfielders Bob Kleinman and Ray Ziegler. Kleinman. a starter last season, shows much promise and should see a lot of action this year. Ziegler, a part time starter, could also see much action in an outfield slot. Returning infielders are Dave Walls and Bob Blunden. and starter Hal Schoenberg. Led by southpaws Bill McKensie and Jeff Dorman, and supported by Harry Britwar and juniors Kenny Gamm and John Barry, the pitching staff could be North s strong point. McKensie and Dorman were impressive as juniors, while Barry led a successful JV team. Other players from last year s Junior Varsity squad may also bolster this year s team. Richard Bernstein, who showed con- sistant hitting and good power, appears to be headed for a starting spot. Dave Frankie. Ed Keubler and Don Einsidler could also find themselves on the varsity squad. Coach Casey feels that although the team may look fairly solid, its success de- pends a great deal upon the attitudes of the players. The members of the squad, according to Mr. Casey, must be con- cerned with the team as a whole. 107 New Coach Inspires Track Team Mr. William Paradisin is the new Great Neck North Varsity Track coach. He appears quite willing to work with the trackmen, and seems optimistic about the season, as North will probably have at least one strong athlete in every event. In the 120 high hurdles and the 180 low hurdles senior Stu Rosenblatt leads North. Also in the 180 low hurdles is Andrew Dember. one of North’s more promising sophomores. Senior Bob Kram- erson and junior John Duckworth could easily provide North with first and second places in most meets in the 100 and 200 yard dashes. Led only by juniors Glenn Porcelain and Cliff Kossoff. the Blazers might have some trouble in the 440 and 880 yard runs. The only proven mile run- ner North has is junior Bob Landon. In addition to holding the school record, Bob is one of the country's top milers. In the 2 mile run Ira Mandel should do quite well. North is especially strong in the field events. Senior Peter Blatman and junior Venton Barno lead Great Neck in the broad jump, while senior Mike Kaplan should be North’s top man in the triple jump. The Blazers should also be quite strong in the shot-put and the discus, with senior Bob Stevenson, junior Mai Arnold and sophomore Donald Sussman. Norths hopes in the pole vault rest with sopho- more Maurice Sulla and in the high jump, with Mike Kaplan and junior Bill Brown. Great Neck North certainly has all that is needed for an outstanding track team. Past failures will become valuable exper- iences, and both the coach and his ath- letes are confident of success in all future endeavors. TRACK TEAM: KNEELING: R. Stevenson. P. Swertka. I. Mandel, A.

JV Lacrosse Team Established After years of waiting and many ef- forts on the part of the Physical Education department. North has a real lacrosse team. Last year. Phipps finally gave per- mission for the creation of an intramural squad that got to play a few scrimmages with other teams. This year, however, they will have team status and will play a full junior varsity schedule. Next year the squad will participate in Division II of the North Shore Athletic League as a Varsity team. Led only by twelve juniors and one sen- ior from last year's team, the Blazers are hard pressed to put together a good squad. However, the new prospects have picked up the basic skills very quickly and Coach Dennis Burden is optimistic about the outcome of this first season. In their first official game, the North JV Lacrosse team dealt a long established Port Washington team a crushing defeat. Jun- iors Carl Cavrell. Richard Lichtenstien, Russ Motchkowitz and Bob Dorfman all contributed to the 4-3 victory over Port. The game was characterized by surprising smoothness in play and good teamwork, unusual for a first year team. Graduation this year will not seriously affect next year's lacrosse teams, as only three players will be leaving. With a ma- jority of the team returning, the first Var- sity Lacrosse team will have a strong nu- cleus around which to build. JUNIOR VARSITY LACROSSE TEAM: SEATED: D. Greenberg R. Goldhirsch. P.

As a result, three sophomores, Curtis Brooks. Mike Gabbay, and Bob Diskin, maintained starting berths. Brooks compiled the high regular season averac3 of 175 and Gabbay had the high game of 246. Senior James Feldman was one of the club's strongest bowlers. However, he missed the first four matches and did not bowl up to par until late in the season. Another problem North’s Bowling Team faced was the lack of a steady fifth man. Richard Mintzer and Harry Britwar were maior contenders for the spot during the season. Bob Thalheim, Andy Aaron-, and Bob Ivanhoe also participated. In the two important post-season tourna- ments, the Shores and the Counties, North finished sixth and nineteenth. In the Shores, Brooks and Feldman bowled extremely well, averaging 200 and 193 respectively. Feldman led the team with a 181 average in the Coun- ties. With three starters returning, Coach Martin Bennet is confident that the Keglers will have a fine season next year.

The Class of 1970 Great Neck North was the common ex- perience. Struggling and developing in as many ways as were humanly possible, we went from September '67 to June '70. And the world went from Johnson to Nixon, from clothed and closed to nude and open, from the earth to the moon, and we were still in high school. Students were apathetic about school because they weren't learning anything, so they began to change the schools. And the world. From Berkeley to Columbia to Harvard; and even we in high school got involved. With love and hate and peace and war and black and white and drugs. And some of us got really hung up about college, and life, and PSAT's and National Merits and SAT's and Regents and Achievement Tests and Regents scholar- ships. There was no junior prom or National Honor Society, but there was a magazine drive and a basketball team with a county championship and a busing issue. And Sen- ior Values Seminars and Independent Study and moratoriums and bomb scares. The G.O. became the S.O. and girls wore pants and our principal had a multicolored beard. And finally, in our senior year, when the cliques broke down and nobody cared, some of us even got to know each other and the teachers and people we had been with for the past three years. Just in time to say good-bye.

Formulated oy Mr. Noyes, this series of assembly programs involving the Senior Class was instituted to give students a broader view of today’s complex society. Lectures, films, and live performances highlighted this year's assemblies. The year opened with a full day program involving the entire student body, which was devoted to informal, teacher-student discus- sions. Entitled Cooperation in Change, this stimulating form of group encounter set the theme for a year-long effort by students, fac- ulty. and administration to add to the effec- tiveness of the educational experience through increased understanding. Other presentations were incorporated into the Values Seminar program. The philosophy of situation ethics was an important aspect of the discussions on current religious thought. Sensitivity training was examined, as were sex- ual values, the various media of communica- tion, especially the film, and new trends in education. Our environmental crisis and The Changing Political Scene were themes for the program during other months. The purpose of the seminars, explained Don Hurwitz, student member of the Senior Values Seminar Committee, was to present, through various media, as many sides of each topic as possible. We wanted to stimulate thought and through this thought, gain answers and insight into the human experience.' Other members of the committee were Jon Benjamin. Nina Bogin. Lynne Breslin, Andy Plesser, and Nina Rubin. The faculty committee included Mr. Burggraf. Mr. Gabia. Miss Huth, Dr. Isaac, Mr. Love. Mrs. Rapoport, and Mrs. Rosenstein. 146 PETER ALLEN JANE ARONIN SATOMI AWANO ROBERT BALABAN RONNIE AMMERMAN ■ ELLIOT ARONS DEAN BAIUN ---------- CARON BASSOFF WAYNE BATWIN AMY BAUMAN STEVE BAUMRIN JOHN BEATTIE JONATHAN BENJAMIN ALAN BENSON IRA BERG MARSHA BERKOWITZ LINDA BERNSTEIN ROBIN BLANC 148 PETER BLATMAN HEDDA BLITZ CAROL BLOCH 149 LINDA BOYE LINDA BREEN LYNNE BRESLIN ART BRICKMAN ADAM BRODY MARJORIE BROWN STEVEN CASSEDY ROBERT CHERNACK ROBERT BRUCK MICHAEL BRUKIN ROY BUCHMAN JEFFREY CASPER 150 JEFFREY COHEN MICHAEL COHEN REUBEN COHEN JACQUELINE COVEY KEVIN CROSTHWAITE VERA CROWDER ROBERT DAITZ ROCHELLE DAIT2 151 LORI DIVINE CONSTANCE DEROSA MARC DEMBER CARYL DILLER CONRAD DOMBROWSKY 152 NEIL DORFSMAN MARGERY DOPPELT LORI DRESSLER JEFFREY DORMAN JEAN DRUKKER LAWRENCE DRESSNER LAURA DUGGAN KENNETH DUBENSKY RUTH EPSTEIN CAROL EPSTEIN BARBARA EDELSON JEFFREY EAGLE 153 ■Ill m i Kfl HERMAN FINE RANDII FINKEL SHEILA EPSTEIN LUCILLE ESPOSITO LEON FALK FRANCINE FARBER JAMES FELDMAN NANCY FELDMAN NEAL FELLENBAUM CHARLES FIEUX GRISELL FIGUEREDO JACALYN FISCHER BARBARA FRANKEL DEBRA FOX RHONDA FORMAN JEFFREY FLOWERS LISA FOLICKMAN STUART FRANKEL DEBRA FRATELLO RACHEL FREEDMAN LISA FREEMAN 155 ELIZABETH FULLYLOVE PAM FURER DEBORAH GELBSPAN DENISE GIBEL THOMAS GIDDINGS MICHAEL GALE EDWARD GALVIN PATRICK GALVIN 156 DENNIS GIDSEG BARBARA GILBERT GARY GOLDMAN ROBERT GOLDMANN ANDREW GOLDRICH BARBARA GOLDSMITH RICHARD GOLDSMITH HELENE GOLDSTEIN PAUL GOOD DAVID GORDON GARY GRAHAM LESLIE GRAYBURN JACK GREENSTEIN BARBARA GREENWALD 158 JAYNE GROSS DAVID GRUEN SUSAN HABER JUDITH HAENEL HEINRICH HAHN CAROL HAINES JOEL HALPERN KENNETH HAMMER 159 CAROL HERMAN MARCIE HERMAN CAROLE HERMELE BRUCE HERSHENSON LINDA HARRIS SUSAN HARTMAN STACEY HEIDE KENNETH HIRSCH MARILYN HIRSCH 160 DANIEL JAY LORIN JEROME DEBORAH JOSEPH MITCHELL HOCHBERG PHILLIP HOLLENZER DONALD HURWITZ MARJORIE IMPELL LINDA JACOB JILL JANCO ILYA KALTMAN DEAN KAPLAN 161 ELLIOT KASS HELEN KATCHIS PHIL KATZ SUSAN KATZ RONNA KAUFMAN DANIEL KAYTON RANDI KENT GLENN KIMMEL RICHARD KARPF 162 ROBERT KLEINMAN TANA KLUGHERZ CATHY KOGAN LAURA KOHN JOEL KOLEN PHYLLIS KONNER 163 164 SAM KOPPELMAN PETER KORNBLIT MICHAEL KORNBLUM FERN KOZER GLENN KRAMER NANCY KRAMER ROBERT KRAMERSON RONALD KRAUSS ALAN KUMMER LAWRENCE KURASH NORMAN KURLAN MAXINE KURTZ DANIEL LASKIN ELLEN LAURIA ROBERT LAURO LENORA LAWLOR ROBERT LAWRENCE MICHAEL LEEDS JODI-BETH LEHRER RITA LEIBOWITZ LESLIE LEIGHTON HARRIET LEVEEN MICHAEL LEVI MICHAEL LEVIN PAUL LEVINSON BARBARA LEVITZ LLOYD LEVY STEWART LEWIS 167 RICHARD MACKIEWICZ SHEILA MANSFIELD BERNICE MARCUS SCOTT MARCUS DIANE MARKOWITZ KAREN MARCUVITZ 168 8RADLEY MARTIN PEGGY MASON STEVY MASSOFF MARK MAZUR BARBARA MEINWALD KAREN MELNICK DAVID MEVORACH DAVID MEYER MADY MEYER JUDITH MAUER CATHY MAYER MITCHELL MENDELSON RANDY MEREDITH MELANIE MILLER SANDRA MINKIN BARRY MITTENTHAL ROBERT MOSS JEFFREY NAGER REX NATHANSON JANE NEEDLE BARBARA NIDEL RITA NORKUS MEG NOVICK DAVID OCHS 170 RICHARD PEARLMAN PAUL PERLIN JODY PETERS TODD PHILLIPS JANET PINNELLA 171 ANDREW PLESSER ANDREW PODOLNICK ELLEN RAND STEVEN RASHBAUM LAURA REINER LINDA RENICK SAMUEL RIEFF LINDA RIPSTEIN 172 SUSAN POMERANTZ GARY PTASCHNIK KAREN PUTTERMAN STEVE RATTNER JAQUELINE REED RICHARD REIBSTEIN STUART ROSENBLATT 173 MYRA ROSENSTEIN YVONNE ROSS ANNAMARIA ROSSETTO LARRY ROTHMAN JORDAN ROTHSTEIN MARC ROSENWASSER LAWRENCE ROTHSTEIN MARJORIE ROTHSTEIN KATHY ROUNICK GLENN RUBENALL NANCY RUBIN 174 NINA RUBIN ALAN SATTLER CHARLES SAVAGE JEAN SCHIFF PETER SCHLESINGER DEBRA SCHLESSEL JOAN SCHNEIDER LINDA SCHNIER MATTHEW SCHOENBERG SUZANNE SCHOTT MICHAEL SCHUR IVY SCHUSTER STEVEN SCHWAM ALAN SCHWARTZ DEBORAH SCHWARTZ NANCY SCHWARTZ RICHARD SCHWARTZ IRIS SEASONWEIN LEONARD SEASONWEIN IRIS SECKLER CHARLENE SEEGER 176 JANET SHAFFER NATHAN SHAFFER PHILIP SHAPIRO ALAN SHEFF JOCELYNE SHALOM VIVIAN SHAMASH KENNETH SHER ANDREW SHORE ALLAN SIEGEL DEBORAH SIEGEL j 177 MICHAEL STERNESKY ARLENE SOLADAR RONNIE STARK MARY STEPHENS DEBRA STERN ABBE STEINBERG WENDY STEIN ROBERT STEVENSON ROI STIEFF PHILIP STORCH SAMUEL STORCH JAN SUSSMAN LINDA SUSSMAN DONALD SUSSWEIN ROBERT TAFFET WENDY TALVE JOAN TAWIL KATHY TESSLER JON TESSLER 180 MICHAEL TULIN RENEE VARIAN GLADYS VELASQUEZ LAUREN VIRSHUP MARIAN WALD JOEL WALDENBERG DAVID WALLS CLIFFORD WALZER STEPHEN WANK DANIEL WARTENBERG NANCY WASSERMAN 181 LAUREN WHITE JILL WIENECKE JANE WILLIAM CATHY WILLIAMS JOAN WLODAVER CATHY WOLFF PETER WOLFSON SUSAN WOLGEL KATHRYN WORMLEY ROBERTA WRIGG RACHEL YELLIN LAURA YURCHUKONIS LESLEY ZARETSKY MICHAEL ZELMAN JACQUELINE ZERLIN RAYMOND ZIEGLER JOHN ZIMMERMAN ROBERT ZUBRIN RICKI ZUCKER Also graduated were Valerie Annis.
