Look, man Gig's been around. He knows every Deb from Phillie to New Jersey. He even knows that stud who ran off with the princess. Gig knows everybody down at the Varsity Club if you're interested. But let me warn you, man, stay off Gig's back. Gig played some football and baseball last year, but cause he's a transfer he was ineligible this year. Do you think that phased Gig? Heck no, Gig iust became Freshman assistant coach and taught the boys everything he knew. Gig's been watching the Phillies this year, and you can bet he'll find the game on the radio no matter where he is. Gig's sort of a genius too. He's got an LQ. of 140 he tells me, and when he wants to, he can really spout off some facts. Like I said, he's been around. Gig's an actor too. He tried out for the C.S.G.-Academy play last year and did a pretty good job. Gig's taken a lot of gaff from us, but I guess he's used to it cause it doesn't seem to bother him. It's hard to say what kind of a guy Gig is, but I guess none of us will ever know. Yea, Gig's been around. 22 William P GIIICSPIC, IV Football Basebal Va rsity l IIAII Academy Life Dramati Proctor CS Apollo

Daniel J. Friedman Forum Academy Life Caravel Class Officer Debate Club l l, 2, 3, 4 l, 3, 4 4 4 CPresidentj Who else but Dan would be looking forward to summer vacation so that he could go to Antioch. Dan was a noted intellectual during his twelve years at the Academy and was famous for his somewhat less than conservative views. He was one of the few students in the class who was capable of putting a teacher on the spot and could debate superbly as evidenced by his pres- idency ofthe Debate Club. Dan has served the school on both of its publica- tions. For the Life he was a reporter and for the Caravel he can be held responsible for most of the Senior articles. With Tony West and Ted Spiro Dan formed the awesome fifth period educational study group which explored virtually every aspect of social and school life. If he was not in the biology room during fifth period, he could be found at Ming's. Dan performed meritoriously out- side of school. He was chairman of many Jewish youth organizations and was chosen to receive the Pops Dworken award as the Jewish Boy of the Year. Dan is a free thinker who should help shape the philosophy of the United States in the years to come. 2l

Carl H. Gerhold Football Track Cheerleader Proctor What Mr. Nicholson vociferously objected to as animal noises in the home room are perfectly acceptable and actually encouraged on the basket- ball court. That is, if you are a cheerleader. Carl Gerhold, who succeeded George Johnson in the prestigious position of head cheerleader, was the great innovator. He altered the traditional school colors by picking out luminous blue and red cheerleading iackets and brought intellectual ac- ceptance to cheerleading by choosing a most un- likely Ted Spiro as one of his subordinates. Need- less to say, Carl is a colorful, interesting classmate whether battling with Mr. Toffey or explaining KMI. In addition, he was one of the few Seniors who took student advancement seriously enough to join in' a sustained discussion of its merits and demerits and to periodically offer well thought-out suggestions to its administrators. This helpfulness indicates the fact that there is a wildly funny Carl Gerhold and a more sober one. This combination should serve him well at Case Institute and in life. 23
