LAWRENCIAN Arthur Mernit arid Richard Koch were two frogs who could throw the bull with the best of them in the Debating Club. Sweet music croaked forth from the instruments of Nicholas Calabria and John Lee, both of whom have been presidents of the newly formed band. The Lawreneian stream produced several potential “Lindys” who have tried their water wings with great success. Marvin Brown was president of the Aeroplane Club :n 1934, while Edward Star, Lawrence Muller, Murray Laskey and Sanford Siegel have all been officers of the organization. “Mental Pabulum” has been well represented in the Senior class by Laura Monahan, Elizabeth And cws, Esther Shcdlin, Charles Bennett and Walter Wallin, and both Melvin Marks and Jerry Hahn have been presidents of the Journalism Club. Bernice Block was president of the Mathematics Club in 1935 and Richard Koch, who is so proficient in mathematics that Miss Word was heard to remark that it positively gave her an inferiority complex, was vice president in both that society and the Science Club. Dorothy Gluck could be seen licking her lingers after putting them in the pie of practically every organization in school, and Ralph Pierce showed that he was an artist and wit of the first calibre in the Senior posters that he made. 1 he Buskins claimed many notable Seniors including Murray Laskey, Robert Herman, Larry Muller, Larry Prigozen, Elizabeth Harris, and several others who gave their all to Art and made the Buskin Tournament one of the outstanding events in Lawreneian history. Harold Prigozen did invaluable work as stage manager of the Senior play in 1935 and 1936, while Arthur Mernit could be seen any day spending hours meditating over a chess move. Most important of all the Honor Society was liberally supplied with Seniors. During 1934 Bernice Block and Sylvia Niemi received the reward of fine scholarship and became members, and in 1935 Richard Koch, Frieda Wieland, Dorothy Gliick, Geraldine Ehrman, and Arthur Mernit were similarly honored. Both Sylvia Niemi and Geraldine Ehrman have won the ace cup. But now let us proceed to the big moment of the tadpoles’ careers. They became full-fledged frogs or Seniors. The Senior Club was then formed, with Howard Weiner, that most capable and honorable amphibian, as president, A1 Kohn as vice-president, Eliot Asinof as secretary, and Irving Niditch as treasurer. In order to bring attention to their newly acquired maturity, our water babies decided to do a novel and unprecedented thing—they elected Miss Tefft Faculty Advisor. During this year the two big Senior events took place. The Lawreneian appeared (surprise! surprise!) and Miss Ellsworth presented the Senior play “A Full House,” which, because of its artistic and financial success, was a veritable whale of an event for the little frogs. And so the frogs of the Lawrence stream now emerge as tadpoles in the vast river of life. May the waters be as peaceful and as satisfying for them in the future as they have been in the past.
