in iwlzmuriam ABRAHAM AXELROD 1906-1958 Bennett High School, along with the entire city of Buffalo, was saddened at the passing of Abraham Axelrod, principal of Lafayette High School. Mr. Axelrod will always be fondly remembered at Bennett, because of his devoted service to the school, first as a science teacher and later, as assistant prin- cipal until 1952. In this position, he achieved the respect and admiration of every teacher and student in Bennett. The students and faculty, and all those who knew him, deeply regret the untimely passing of Abraham Axelrod on December 18, 1958. 4

FOREWORD There is a society, where none intrudes, By the deep sea, and music in its roarg I love not man the less, but nature more. -LORD BYRON As man turns to nature to find comfort from the complexities of the modern world, he tends to look to the sea as a mirror to reflect his sundry moods. Perhaps it is the tranquility of the sea which attracts man most of all, for in this he finds peace of mind. Man is often referred to as a ship and an analogy is likewise drawn between his life and the sea. When the seas become turbulent, it is the nature of the crew to look toward the eventual calm. So it is with the mind of man. The lakes, rivers, and oceans allow man to release his everyday tensions through canoeing, sailing, and other water sports, as Well as through the passive pleasure derived from watching nature's soothing waters. Throughout the pages of this book we have attempted to create an atmosphere which, also, will pro- duce the relaxation brought forth by the sea. Gradually our city is being brought closer to the sea. The construction of the St. Lawrence Seaway will bring about the development of Buffalo as an impor- tant world seaport, this position is vital to her industry and commerce. Inevi- tably, there will be a profound effect upon the lives of her future citizens. As students of Bennett, we are directly concerned with the new importance of Buifalo, brought about by the unprecedented nearness of the ocean. Thus, it is both fitting and proper that the theme of the 1959 Bennett BEA- CON be of a nautical nature. We appreciate not only the beauty of the sea, but also its value to our city and its effects on the future lives of the students of Bennett. -james Blinkog 3
