Teachers took their lives into their hands when they took over the supervision of our class. But our hark was really worse than our hiteg our talents did turn to creative directions, although we spent a great deal of time creating trouhle. ln 1940 we invaded the high school. That was the year of the Mexican Fiesta, when Mr. MacDonald did a scintillating tango with a certain very attractive young lady. All spring everyone went around singing the songs from Trial by fury, our April production: and we gave St. Ioan quite success- fully as a companion feature. This was the year God of the Downing was First introduced at graduation exercises, the year we actually numhered eight boys in our class, and the year Mr. Kinoy shared honors with Mr. MacDonald of the orange tie and hlushing ears in our hoisterous affections. And in 19-40 we took an eventful trip to Northfield, lvlass., where we stayed a week at a youth hostel. We spent many wonderful evenings there around the piano with Mr. Mao, exhausting his musical talents on Yankee Doodle to the doubtful accom- paniment of lifteen lusty voices. What excitement we had concocting our own recipes to try out on the rest of the hunch at mealtimesl Then there was the time we tramped all through a CCC camp in the heat only to he served a huge harrel of steaming hot chocolate at lunch, or the day we spent at the dairy farm sweeping out cowsheds, etc., enjoying the delicious smells of the herdl The local ninth grade paid us a visit one night, hringing along their girl yodler, and introducing us to that fascinating game, winkem.

John Boxill announced to the social studies class that Pasteur had found a cure for Hrahhisug and when that same class went on a trip to a hospital, Karen suddenly passed out at the sight of something in one of the wards, whereupon Joe hurried to the rescue with a huge white stretcher in tow while the woman doctor with us dashed olitq tor help, leaving him to do the honorsl The tenth grade was pretty hectic, too. ln one ot our assemhlies for that year, we presented our First song slcits ahout Bentleyg and Betsey wowed them with her rendition of I Arn the Very Model of a lxlodern High School Principal while waving a pair of glasses in one hand and a compass in the other.

We stared silently at each other wondering what it would all mean and reading the Hextran put out hy the Beacon complete with a war map of the Pacitic. We puzzled over names lilce Guam, Wake, Midway, and Bataan-names that we can never forget. ' A few days later there was that thrilling moment when the news came of approaching unidentihed planes and an air raid alert. We all hung out of the windows watching the police cars careen hy with sirens screaming, and we quiclcly gathered in the lihrary to continue our studies. llmagine studying Caesar and the Roman wars while we waited for heaven-lcnows-whatll 1 We were a little disappointed when nothing happenedg it was a let-down, hut we soon got used to having surprise alerts and marching up the street to an apart- ment house for safety. t We toiled furiously through Youths Challenge, our Thanlcsgiving play, and tried not to laugh when some of the hoys ventured sheepishly onto the 25 stage in Anclrocles and the Lion clad in what were supposed to he Roman togas, hut loolced suspiciously lilce dainty white shortsl ln spite ol our giggles the play was a success, and so was the Ballad for Americans. p First aid lcept us husy during cluh periods, and one could usually catch sight of an eager group of First aiders happily attaclcing the victim of the day with all manner of wiclced loolcing handages.

Among the thousands of newsy and informative items there was a report on the activities of some of the aIumni of 714. We have committed this to memory in thirty seconds and recopied it to show it to you. BeIow is the copy: ALUMNI NEWS THE Crfxss oif 1944 GAINS REcoGN1r1oN IN MANY Fuirns To show the students of BentIey what a Fine heritage they have, the editor of this coIumn did a Iot of hard research to hring you an accurate and unexaggerated report on the activities of the cIass of ,4-4 in the worIds of science, art, Iiterature, entertainment, etc., The onIy person who has had a compIeteIy caIm Iife is AIice Schwah. She has spent her time enjoying it and not worrying too much. The rest of them have aII done something siIIy, IiIce Inecoming famous. Take Barhara RosenhIoom, for instance. She hecame a movie star and is still doing something or other to get into the papers. WhiIe I expIored the entertainment worId to Find ex-BentIeyites of ,44 I ran into loan DanieI in front of Radio City. She saw that I was from BentIey hy the inteIIigent IooI: on my face, ran up to me and said, HYou go to BentIey, dogyou not? Xvhen I admitted it she toIcI me, among other things, that she was a radio actress and was now appearing in IVIr. District of CoIumIJia Attorney- GeneraI.H She was aIso Icind enough to give me a tip-OII that a girI named EsteIIe IVIayers was pIaying on Broadway in Hgtrychnine and QId Loin CIoth.H Having interviewed EsteIIe I stopped oft' at a musicaI show featuring the great modern dancer, Jane Lyons. It was very pIeasing to note that the peopIe who write up these hiographies of the cast considered it worth-whiIe to mention that Jane was a BentIey girI. By this time I thought that there were no more peopIe from that famous cIass connected with the theater, hut I happened to see in the paper just Ibefore we went to press that AIan IVIurphey, the first maIe treasurer of BentIey, has hecome manager of the Roxie Theater. As I hrowsed further through the paper I tooIc a gIimpse at a review of Iast night,s opera at the Met. Vxfhat caught my attention was a mention that IVIariIyn Reinis had made a speciaI guest appear- ance pinch-hitting for the Iead, who had caught dysentery.

Qnce, while entertaining a discussion ahout manners with one of our faculty, l discovered that Charles Hoher was, in that teacher,s opinion, the most civil person to ever graduate from our school., lt was not surprising then when l detected Charlie in a Hcivilu engineer,s olzljice with his feet upon the deslt. H Going haclc to dysentery l went through the hospitals in this city and in my travels witnessed one of the hest pieces of surgery ever seen hy me per- formed hy lrma Golclherg. Also immersed in medicine l found Naomi lsaacson, who told me that her real love was sculping. She showed me some of her sculpture, and l commented on it. Now weary of tramping through the sci- ences, l tool: a shot in the darlc and read the Prophecy in the 1944 Silhouette. There it said that Tohy Wloscowitz would he a chemist. l immediately called her up and aslced whether this was true. She said it was. Having read the old gossip columns of the era when the class of '44 were seniors, l aslced Tohy if she lcnew anything ahout Newton Cattell. She did. He was a physicist. l had a hunch that, it l went to Europe, l would liind one Monique Kaplan, so l set out hy roclcet ship.

It turned out that she was the Duveen Qltarsh, who also originated from Bentley. ' ln Europe l easily located Monique hecause everyone lcnew of her great 9 3 worlc as a child psychologist after the last war. ln my conversation with her she mentioned that she and Joan Saclc had studied under the same teacher.

This disappointment was set oft hy the fact that on my way to school one morning l was chatting with one of the lcinder- . garten teachers from the lower school. Xvhen she mentioned that her name ' , was Marilyn Ginsherg l lcnew that l had found another memher of the rogues, i gallery l was searching for. Wfhen l got to school the sports editor invited IF? me to help him interview the coaches at a haslcethall game that night. Xvhat , rl he did not tell me was that we were to interview women coaches. By the strangest coincidence, the coach of the winning team, Xvellesley, was Elaine , ,lg Levy, a Bentley graduate, and hy an even stranger chance, the coach of the I, 'A other team was Betsey Bergman. Both girls told me that they had heen cham- 'E pions themselves in their day. lvlaclc, the sports editor, and l spotted 'a couple of newspapermen in the crowd and ran up to them in the hope of getting R ss :Zia-X X 0 sit . I H N 1 ' some professional comment on the game. The First, Joe Hirsch, editor of A. M. said the game stanlc, and the second, Julian Armistead, only turned out to he an ex-newspaperman. The two were so non-descript and disappointing that it was not until long after that l realized that they were mernhers of the rogues, gallery of ,4-4. At this point, Maclc and l ran into a couple of friends who dragged us oft to the house of one Judy Friedman. We didn,t helieve it at First, hut it was true: there was a purple carpet in every room of the twenty-seven room house. During the conversation it transpired that Judy had heen a graduate of Bentley. l went home that night with a lot of worlc accomplished. l Next morning l got off to a good start. At staff meeting the girls' fashion editor told us in gleeful terms that Nina van Dam, the Hgreatest fashion designer in Americaf, was coming to school to give us a lecture in assemhly. While the editor-in-chief was spieling on ahout some letter matter, l had a chat with the society editor. She made the hright suggestion that l loolc in the social register to Find a few more memhersof the alumni. l found May Rose Bessalel, Nancy Jane Silclu, and Enid Levy. A ,long distance call to 'the South hrought May Roses hutler to the phone to tell me that Hlvladam sent her compliments' and was entertaining the Congressmen from North Carolina. Another call to Parlc Avenue told me that Nancy was tallcing to hdr puhlisher ahout her new hoolc, and that she would call me hefore starting to write another. And the third telephone call, this time out to Long lsland, told me that Enid was at dinner with Bis Bertrum Brown, the hig game hunter. f' i That afternoon l was having lunch at Longchamps, when, while follow- ing an English assignment of getting peoples conversations written down, l eavesdropped on three women tallcing husiness. Their tallc told me that they were from Bentley. l introduced myself and discovered that they were Gwen Freed, husiness executive of Lord and the Tailored Woman, Jean Sander, personnel manager of same, and Rosalee Schindel, top huyer for same. This hit of information cost me four lunches at Longchamps, hut it was worth it. l had finally narrowed the Field down to three memhers of that illus- trious class. They were Karen Gelert, Doris Epstein, and Dave Ballantine. l lcnew the hest way to Find Karen was to go to some literary haunt or other since she, as you all lcnow, is a literary character. XV ith her l found Doris Epstein, whose poetry l,ve admired for many years. The last discovery was the most sensational. l was wallcing up Eighty-sixth Street when l was shot hy accident The result was a hallistic expert,s prohe in me as l lay on a slah at police neadquarters. The hallistic expert was David Ballantine, so l interviewed him while he worlced.

Does this cluh aiways write Senators and Congressmen just like that?H Yes You see, we found that these people are really interested in getting letters, and so we have heen writing them ahout controversial suhjects in the news. The reply is worth the etiiortf, After a few minutes we crept out and directed our steps to the art room where rnodei airplanes were heing huiit hy future pilots.

We slowly climhed the steps to the fourth Hoor. From the right came the sound of someone playing the Mexico.n Hat Danceg from the left we heard a hahhle of nasal voices. Since the fatter sounded more mysterious we entered to find Miss Weingold and other memhers of the French Cfuh talking half in French and half in English ahout the puppet show they were going to give for assemhly. Since our New Student had taken Spanish hefore, she wanted to see what went on in the Spanish Ciuh. Qn entering we were almost trampled hy two Latin dancers who looked suspiciously North American. OFF in one corner a few students were reading their scripts for the play they were preparing for assemhlyg in another corner Senora Rivera was telling a few girls ahout her adventures in Puerto Rico. We puffed up two chairs and listened to her for the rest of the period. - or :ic or Thursday I met my friend down in assemhly again, hut apparently nothing was doing there 3 so we went up immediately. Mrs. Kaufmann was herding everyhody' into her favorite cfuh, the Gfee Cfuh. When the girls quieted down, Miss Ferguson, expert at the keys, asked us what song we'd likeg and we soon were singing high and low. With regret we left, hut, after au, I didn't want our New Student to miss one of our most interesting cfuhs. As we walked in, Mrs. Masters was just explaining to one of the trouhfed pupils, Men are very selfish and very conservative. , , ' That statement got us rather interested and we sat down, talked to Mrs. Masters ahout the relations of girl to girl, girl to hoy, hoy to hoy, and hoy to girl extensively and were otherwise advised ahout how to get along with other people.. In the middleof this enlightening conversation, the afternoon class came in, and quickly looking over our notes once more, we hurried up to our American history class-'to take a test. 42 Student ounci We are living through one of the most crucial periods in historyg we, American youth, play the leading roles in this most exciting of dramas. The first act was written long ago-'some say in 1918 at Versaiuesg the second act is now heing enacted on the stage, hut the third act is up to us. Yve must write it and act it outg the whole world is our audience. it is not with starry- eyed idealism or gloomy pessimism that we shalt write the futureg therefore we win not face the disiuusionment and hopelessness of the generation that grew up after the last war. VV e know the kind of world we want for our- selves and our children, and we are aware that human limitations and hasic needs must govern the success of any post-war plan. To huitd a democratic civilization, certain fundamentals must he lcept in mind. Some of these have heen taught us in our school lite and studies: respect for the ideas and cultures of our fellow men, an uncompromising reverence for the truth, intitiative and the courage and responsihiiity with which to hack it up, and cooperation! so essential in any hrotherhood of nations. 43 HUIVIAN RELATIONS CLUB I CURRENT EVENTS CLUB FRENCH CLUB SPANISH CLUB REU CROSS CLUB SCIENCE CLUB JUURNALISM CLUB IVIUSIC APPRECIATION CLUB GLEE CLUB DRAIVIATICS CLUB SQUARE DANCING CLUB SOCIAL DANCING CLUB Y' 4 Qofts and Qgoltettes Sports here at Bentley?

We won that 18-12. b The tenth grade was our Brooklyn year, our wait till nextn year. We didnat play many games hut we got in a lot of good practice that was to stand us in good stead during the coming seasons. We got a shot in the arm when Charley Hoher and Newt Catteu came to us in the eleventh grade. Although we got oft to a poor start hy dropping a foothau game to Xvalden, we came hack in the winter with a prolific haslcet- hau' schedule of eight games that showed the Fighting spirit and determination of the Bolts of Bentley. Seniors now'-hig deal. The football teamgunder- the direction of Charley Hoher missed the First part of the year, this waseidue to the tack of inten- sive team practice. It was a grand season, though, and our good showing- was due to perfect teamwork. . The Boitettes came into heing last year and the girls, haslcethan team quicldy hecame an exciting part of Bentley. We played a numher of games last year, winning a victory over Little Red Schoolhouse, and this year have played one game with Dalton, so far. Q ' Intramurals kept us pretty husy last season and now we are in the midst of a ping-pong tournament. Yvhen we aren,t playing haslcethau, we,re work- ing hard at voueyhau, soccer, or softhan, and in the spring tennis. Swimming is a year-round sport at the NYU, and hygiene classes add to our physical edu- cation course. Horsehacic riding is availahie for those who wish it. Sports have done something for us. We have come to realize the value of teamwork and the dangers of putting individuality hefore co-operation.

ELAINE LEVY 5? At the end of the dance the couples melted away like the heads of a necklace from which the string had heen pulled. A JOAN SACK unrise Theproud cock down on the Vxfiison farm loudly hailed the new day, and the sun rose reluctantly in the pink, soft sky, like a woman in an her glory slowly opening her eyes to radiate happiness, laughter, and warmth, of which the world was so much in need. Tulips stretched their petals towards her in praise while hirds chirped a warm welcome. How lovely and peaceful it was in this ioneiy spot, where Howers grew in spite of the fact that a war was going on, and hirds stin swung gracefully through the air! Qver the edge of the hill something not yet discernihie was silhouetted against a rosy sky. As the silhouette took form, one could see a wagon on four none-too-steady wheels coming slowly down the road which wriggied its-elf past the neat little cottage in the valley, only to disappear over the low hills on the other side. Alongside the rickety wagon full of shining milk cans. a harefooted youth was whistling gaiiy, his hands hidden in faded jeans. He wore a iight htue shirt of sturdy material, of a quality which descrihed his nature as wen as his clothes. Though hoth his shirt and jeans were patched in varying shades of hiue, there was a took of cleanliness ahout him. There was nothing unusual ahout his iooks: he had an average mouth and nose, and his height was not extraordinary, yet, when one looked into his eyes one wondered what thoughts lay hehind them and why his dark hrows were often drawn together, making him seem oider than he was. He liked the stillness that surrounded him, a peacefuiness that made him sigh inwardly with contentment. The sun had now risen fully and the sky had gradually changed to a deep hiue, with little whisps of cloud hanging life- Iessiy in the air. A He was in the valley now, walking past a little cottage dozing in the warmth. lt, too, was touched with the radiance of the sun like everything else in the vaitey. A few dewdrops still giistened here and there, giving the whole scene an ethereal quality. He had stopped whistling for fear of disturhing the heavenly peace that pervaded him and his surroundings. Walking along at a hrisk pace, he soon reached the tow hius covered here and there with little 52 hunches of forget-me-nots. Regretfuny he turned to the valley for a last look, drawing his eyehrows together in deep concentration as if trying to rememher this scene forever. Then he turned resolutely toward his goal without looking hack. He hegan whistling again, as he approached the top of the hill, hut not as gaily as hefore. With regretfui eyes he walked on tin he had reached the top, took one more glance at his enchanting valley, and slowly faded from view. i V NINA VAN DAM Quttercups Although they did not speak so 1 could understand, Their drooping yellow cups in the scented afternoon, Swaying gently to the touch of some suhtie, rhythmic hand, Woke a half-rememhered aching in my hreast that even June Could not ease. .And the streaming liquid light that lay across the Hoor Sought the Finely threaded veins of their petals, just the same As rememhrance plucked the strings of my throhhing heart once more, -And their glowing iridescence lighted deep in me a name That thought was lost forever in the Caverns of my soul ' And would wander there forgotten like a silent, vanished ghost, All alone with none to answer to its mute, eternal dole. But the Howers in their wisdom drove away the foolish hoast, And I knew, with hopeless misery, the ghost was come again. Q Godf That huttercups and June should he the givers of such pain! NANCY JANE SIFF 53 C9-AQ 3-Gjylgy'gI8ClC! 'All around was silence'-the hush of laden Wisteria, smiling magnolias, the yawn of a sleepy boy. The boy rubbed one dreamy eye and peered around for a sign of adventure. p An inviting twitter came from the direction of the Woods. lt was a call'-1 the Piper to Adventure, pushing the Taffy-Head towards the tall pines. the soft earth, the mirrored pond. Here were the path bordered by round-topped mush- rooms, lacy ferns of all heights, widths, and sizes, the passing breeze, and the pungent pine smells-the lcind that never fail to wrinlcle a nose. I The portly mushrooms seemed to turn to oneanother and Whisper among themselves. They had a plan, a scheme of ndwness and fantasy loomed with the intrigue of another world. Farther on the path widened, and small foot- prints belonging to dwellers of the forest pushed the green grass downward. Tally looked around and saw nothing but the whispering trees peering down from aloft. Then the most inviting breeze crossedhis face, and he ambled towards it, longing to lcnow the secrets behind each tree. All the way little llowerets sprang up malcing the trail more inviting. Then slowly a pale, win- some blue appeared and beclconed smilingly. k Taffy-Head saw clearly that the azure bit was a pond, round, rippling, and cool to the touch. At its edge grew lacy ferns, drawing water from the closest ripple, then turning their faces up to greet the, sun,s drifting rays. Nestling down comfortably on his stomach the boy wriggled his toes, then pluclced a few spears of grass, threw them into the pond with delighted vigor trying to malce one outdistance the other. Beginning curving upward, droplets began to rise from the pond's center, as it pushed by some yearning force. Smiling ripples formed as if spreading a carpet for some lovely creature. Then something arose-a Xvoman, apart from all women. Her shimmering loveliness made Taffy frown and then stretch out a hand to touch this unreality. She shoolc his hand. Anlcle-length hair graced her bowing person. The boy withdrew his hand, coclced his head as if to exam- ine more closely this enchanting Figure. She smiled, wrinlcling her pretty nose and sat down. Talty glanced anxiously at the grass to see if it was still beneath him. The Lady nodded, assuring him that the ground was as concrete as ever. 54. in thanks for her assurance, the hoy offered her his last piece of candy. This act seemed to hring them cioserg now two friends had met. , Taffy-Head looked around, grasping for a question to hegin their conver- sation. Just then a Coronet of sparrows started singing around the hoy's-head. Taffy raised an eyehrow wonderingiyg the Lady merely arranged her skirt. The more he thought of the hirds, the more inquisitive he hecame. The sparrows were on excellent terms with them hoth: one sat on an unruly tuft of Taity's hair and the rest graciously adorned the Lady. Taffy was ahout to ask his first question. hut he was interrupted hy the Lady., The two smiled and Taffy laughed hoisterousiy. Then he hegan to feel very self-conscious. He cast his eyes downward, fingering the hutton-hole where the hutton was not. Shortly. Taijfyss eyes were lifted. All shame had gone, and they hore a newness. The Lady, meanwhile, was petting the sparrows which rested upon her shoulder. She started to ten the hoy of the heautifui things that grow he- neath the trees and in the sun-fined Fields, of the wide-eyed daisies that made lovely chains, of an the ferns that swayed in rhythm when the wind whistled through their dainty leaves. They, she explained, constituted a large part of the woods, the rest were the dwellers-'they who kept the paths clean, gathered their food, and protected one another. ' s As the Lady continued her description, from hehind a knotted tree, in single tile, came those of whom she spoke. The sparrows preceded them, circling ahout, and Hying to the hoy,s shoulder. After the creatures had gath- ered in a semi-circle, the Lady told Taity ahout each one's hahits. She called for the tiniest of them au, so small that its mother was still its escort. This squirrel was the Lady,s favorite, with its crying grey eyes, powder-putty tail, and soft, furry coat. A whir of wings approached in a fantasy of color, ranging in an shades from iight to dark. These hirds, arriving after the others, came in a Hurry to he surethey were not late. All the feathered creatures of the wood circled, waiting for the Lady,s permission to leave. She informed them that Taffy was a guest and asked them to present their hest sides. They twittered, and their attention pleased the hoy., He laughed, and the entire group seemed to hecome distraught. Quickly they departed, leaving the Taffy-Head to won- der what had heen his error. The Lady's face hore a sad hut pardoning look, and she admitted shamefuiiy that now the creatures would not appear for him. The Taffy-Head turned to the animaisg hut much to his amazement, there weren,t any there, not a trace, not a footprint. He turned towards the Lady, A 55 questioningly, thinlcing that she might lcnow where they had disappeared. The water was tranquil. A few spears of grass Hoated .... The Lady was gone. There were the same droplets waiting to fall, hut they had lost their loolc of freshness. Seeing no one ahout, the hoy got up and hrushed oft the dewy grass. He chose the widest path and started homeward. The hoy was extremely changed. His whole heing seemed different and much wiser. The path homeward was friendly, graciously guiding him towards his destination. The sun was fading when he reached home. Everything now had returned to reality. But the Lady, encircled hy the dwellers of the forest, was heautifully inscrihed in his memory-for him alone. And the Taffy-Head was happy. .
