ARNOLD JURIN 6209 N. 17th Street Wagner Junior High School Arnie has proved to be the keystone of the 187th. His chief trait throughout high school has been 6'leadership g leadership both in sports and in popularity. It is Arnie's hard work, as hub of the class' activi- ties, that has put the illustrious 187th where it is, and belongs. To Arnie, our president, go our deepest appreciation for his superlative service, and sincerest wishes for a future as successful as his past.

MARVIN KATZ 322 Gaskill Street Bartlett Junior High School uPussy Katz will always be remembered by 187 men for his unique personality. Although he has a quiet nature, he seldom has been at a loss for words. Nearly everyone in the class has, at one time or another, been his listening-post while he sang the praises of Selma, or modestly referred to his ability as the hottest trumpet player in captivity. We wish him the best in his future fSelma?J. Extra-Curricular Activities: Intramural Sportsg Selma. BERNARD KAYTES 1719 Juniata Street Carnell Elementary School If you've ever seen a fellow deeply engrossed in a book, we would be willing to give odds that he answered to the name, 'LBernie. Far from a nlonghairi' bookworm, this fellow, the tail end of the 4'Katzes,,' is an ardent baseball and football fan-even to the point of risking his own neck in a friendly game. 4'Bernie will be an accountant if plans work out. As long as he has his many books along with him at college, we know hc'll never fear the realities of the world.

KELLER 7034 Cedar Park Avenue Wagner Junior High School We'l1 always remember the little fellow with the bright hair and even brighter ideas. The energy which he packs into his small frame is all out of proportion with his size. It is Lowell's king size personality, too, which has impressed his many friends with the law of inverse proportions. Many of us have envied Lowell's diminutivenessg chiefly because it enables him to easily hide himself from the Prof's view. Lowell often regaled us with his tales of the biggest problem in his life-uwomankindf' We wish him future success in this field as well as in his career of Journalism.
