Throughout our four years in high school you have followed the principle that no matter what the trend in style or society, the youth is still the backbone of the nation. You have guided us along all ])aths to become individuals capable of under standing the past, living in the present, and facing the future. • three Members of the faculty, we thank you. Mr. Louis Perlstein Genevieve Rosenstraus President Vice President Appreciation n The Board of Education is the official connect- ing link between the community and the school. It presides as the head of the school structure, and is responsible for all policies and actions of the school. Its members devote their time and energy, freely and unfalteringly, to the solution of the many school problems. It is, therefore, an honor Mrs. Mr. Alex Sakofrky Mr. Harry C. Resnick Mr. for the Senior Class to extend its sincere appre- ciation to their Community Representatives, the Board of Education of the Fallsburgh Central Schools.

THE GAY TWENTIES As one who survived the hectic, uninhibited, raucous days of the 1920's, I can look back now and see them for what they were. A great war, with its tremendous tragedies of death and destruction had just been concluded. The United States had just come of age and realized it had big muscles, great strength and burst its many youthful inhibitions. It was a time of wishing to grow up in a hurry. Confusion was prevalent, and the gaiety and frivolity were a camouflage of an adolescent nation trying desperately to become adult in a hurry. The fateful Fifties, in which we now live, have a lesson to learn from the twittering, tawdry Twenties We have grown up since: a terrible depression and an almost cata- strophic second World War have sobered us. We are of age, 'and we have accepted world leadership in technology, trade, education and health. We enjoy hitherto unheard of material advantages. We must match this leadership in such fields with leadership in good govern- ment, good social relations and good world understanding. If the Twenties are to teach the Fifties, we must learn that we can be neither frivolous nor carefree, nor selfish, nor isolationist. Our great nation has a role to play in this world, and it must be performed with dignity and understanding Then our Founding Fathers will have their infant Democracy accepted universally as a way of life and a great world wide era of peace will descend on this troubled earth. SUPERINTENDENT We thought the class of ’51 Would never get to Washington. RALPH ALPER Red, Riotous, Resourceful Ralphic Chef Club 7-8-9.

Her poetry she bequeathes to Mr. Mlercurio in the hope that someone will at least understand it. She wills her extensive vocabulary to j Allen Waller. Arthur “Burnsie” Burns leaves his presidency of F.C.S. to Allen Unger. His lisp he leaves to Rita Ennis in hopes that she will have more luck in improving it than lie did. His way with the women he leaves to Alvin “Doc” Turner. Dede he bequeaths to Melvin Feldman. Joyce Englander leaves her sweetness to Judy Pugatz and her superiority in Commercial Subjects to Janet Raymond. Joycie donates her size 40 gym suit to Joan I lartman. Sammy Ennis leaves his gallant and amorous ways to Lenny Cohen. His “Great Big Smile” he gives to Gloria Kass to use at parties. All his girl friends he leaves to Bob Laskowitz, and his “E” in English for washing boardis, to future students of Mr. Feldman. His position on the Varsity he leaves to Marty Van Vleet. Walter “Rip” Enoch leaves his wide awakeness and sharpness to Harry Fertik (heaven only knows he needs it!!). Rip leaves his “Gorgeous’ voice to Mendy Greenstein and his terrific English marks to Alan Findling. Charlie “'Fork” Farquhar leaves his love of English to Harold Rosensheimi, and his excellent diction to Ellen Levine. We, the Senior Class of 1951, being of sound and disposing mind and retain- ing memory, do hereby make, declare, publish, and proclaim this as our last will and testament: The bequests and bequeathed are as follows: Ralphie Alper bequeaths his “Tarzan” books to Mr. Feldman, lie leaves his red hair and freckles to Gene Ganz for variety. His ability of being a Philadelphia lawyer to Morton “Dupey” Jacobs—to get him out of trouble. His senior class presidency, with all of its headaches, he leaves to Richie Rosen. Ilis “spot” in the “cubby-hole” he reserves for Marty Walbaum. Naomi “Noniey” Altman leaves her delightful squeal to John Slater. Her be- coming blush, she donates to Helene Hantman. “Nomey’s” skillful and graceful dancing ability is willed to Leonard Braver. She takes Daddy’s bus—and Daddy— right with her. Harold “Andus” Anderman hands down bis poise and grace to Gary Slater. To Bruce Goodwin, he endows his vast assortment of odd automobiles. His ir- resistable idiocies he endows to Arnold Hingen. Flesh gives the F.C.S. faculty a big sigh of relief by just leaving. CLASS WILL Murray “Murf” Gershon refuses to part with the burning torch he carries for a certain Woodhourne grocer’s daughter. His exhausting duties as Senior President he leaves to Sheila Seleznow. Murray donates his convertible Chewie to the Junior Class, because they’ll certainly need it next year. Sylvia “Syl ’ Gerstman endows her dramatic orations to the school corridors. Syl's sweet disposition is willed to Miss Rosner. Her living room, locale of all last- minute parties, she bequeaths to next year’s Seniors who will certainly find use for it if they plan to keep their places in society. Her understanding and sincerity, Sylvia presents to Jack Zelanko. Martha Gitlin leaves her drums in the Band to Monty Steingart; her charging lay-up shot in basketball to Irene Depuy, and then she leaves with Murray. Heibie Goldstein leaves his car to Mr. Dickenson to drag the kids to play practice. His role of butler in plays he bestows upon Michael Lotvin. Ellie Greek leaves her driver’s permit to all girls who have Cadillacs to bang up. Mr. Hertz she takes with her; (well, memories anyway!). Her place on the Varsity squad she leaves to Shelly Schwartz. Allen Greenstein bequeaths his shirts to Donnie Michaelson. His thick, curly hair he leaves to Davie “Jerry Lewis” Kwartler. Richie Grossgold leaves his Mombo steps to Marty Walbaum, (ahem!) and his .ability for reading poetry in English class to Bob Dill. Martin “Brooklyn” Handlesnian donates his inimitable talent as a mimic to Mr. Mercurio, so that the latter will be able, at the close of the year, to tell Harold Anderman exactly how he has impressed him. His painting abilities he hands down to Harriet Mogolowitz. “Brooklyn’s” admiration for the late A1 Jolson he retains, enabling him to gain renewed inspiration when life loses its lustre. JRosalyn “Roz” Jaffe donates her dramatic moods to Cara Schoonover. Her quick and short-lived crushes she donates to Gloria Kass. Roz's ability to make a piano talk she endows to Mr. Jacobs, who not needing it, can pass it on to one his students. With her, she takes everybody’s prediction that she’ll go to the alter not much older than she is now, but a lot richer. Libby “Lib” Joffe leaves her perfectly developed art of saying “NO” to all female underclassmen. Her split weakness for a basketball star and Red Convertibles she leaves to Helene Hantman. Her eight and a half lines in. the Senior Play! she •donates to Jane Wyman in the event the actress decides to make a sequel to Johnny Belinda. Isaac “Yitz” Kantrowitz wills his zany sense of humor ’to Alex Cherviok. His intellectual thirst for foreign films he hands down to Mr. Wasserman. The plieno- monal Dewey car, chauffered by Brother Hetz, he reluctantly endows to Mr. Nat. Weiss, who will probably want to change it—and the chauffeur- -somewhat. 1 • twenty-one CLASS WILL Sandra Marcus leaves her excellence in Spanish to Walter Greenstein (so he can write to his Spanish Senorita). Quite happily she leaves her size 9 shoes to Jeanne Dobbs. • twenty-two William “vVilly’ Kiriluk gives his spectacular set-shot to Solomon Cohen. II is various expressions and grotesque laughs, he donates to Gene Ganz. Willy’s pinochle perfection, he bequeaths to Gary Chernow. Gary “Gear” Lederman bequeaths his chair on the Student Court bench to Alan Sussman. His smooth ballroom dancing he presents to Eli Primack. His unshakeable stubborness he wills to Robert Laskowitz in the hope that the latter will finally adhere to just one heart-interest. Lois Mensch leaves her position in Hall Patrol to any luckless Junior. Her tiny she leaves to Phylirs Turner, and her neatness to Dotty Wilson. To Mr. Cobert she gladly leaves the office and its tempermental machines. Marion Moser leaves her unending gift of gab to Joyce Starck, her Comet Co- editorship to Lenny Cohen, her unusual sneeze to Harry Fertik, and her affection for Mr. Feldman to Richie Rosen. Ross “Heshie” Newman endows his luminous and numerous dramatic talents to Harold Morris. His mellow Baritone, inherited from brother Lee, he wills to Louis Lemberger. Ross relinquishes his dry wit, bewilled him last year by M. Pro- yecl to Nancy Lungen. Melvin “Mel” Prager hands down to brother Lenny his lab apron. To Mr. Mc- Millan, he donates his brain for use in Biology dissection. He leaves the hypo and the M.Q. 10 the floor of the darkroom. Terry Rozsa leaves her red hair to Mona Lisa, her sister- She leaves her art ability to Allen Unger, her absentmindedness to Mr. Weiss, her witty sayings to Donnie Michaelson, and her brain to Gloria Kass. “Hesh” Schweid leaves her Varsity Cheerleadership to Beth Catsiff, all 44 of her blouses to Gloria Kass, her famous love affairs to Ann Keiles. her way with boys to Chickie Shaddock, and her “unbreakable” glasses to Lenny Cohen. Bobby “Blue Eyes” Simon leaves his be-au-ti-ful blue eyes to Julian Wilson. His position on the Varsity, Bob leaves to Herbie Feinstein. Lillian Seaman leaves her sensational figure to Roz Mresse. Lil then packs up her pins, needles, thread, costumes, and etc., says good-bye to Mr. Dickinson, and bids farewell to F.C.S. Gene Smith leaves his height to Michael Kove and his dramatic ability (remem- ber in “ Oh. Doctor!”—“Glory. I love you!”) to Myrna Weiss. Jane Smith leaves her new skates to Franny Wegnian, and her brother, Thomas, to Doris Lowe, who has him anyhow. She also leaves her numerous jobs to Marty Walbaum so he won’t have to charge lunch anymore. CLASS WILL “Kill” Tevelowitz leaves her “mad” crush on Mr. Gerber to Monya Betuk (and you too. Selma Kass), her gorgeous voice to Eleanor Giordano, and her braces to Sondra Bocgeman, who can then build her own T.'V. set. Rita leaves all the books she’s read to Donnie Michaelson (good-bye to “Uncle Toms Cabin”). The Editor- ship of Focus she bequeaths to Richie Rosen ; Canteen and the G.O. Minutes, to Ann Keiles. Ronnie Thiele leaves his love of hunting to Bruce Goodwin, and his fondness for Mr. Beytin to all future suffering Chem. and Physics students. Ron leaves his “Bravery in Battle” to Bobby Seigler. (Bobby could also use a little of Ronnie’s weight.) Toby “Vickee” Unger leaves her crush on all the Junior Boys to Beth Catsiff, her position as G.O. Treasurer to Bobby Sakofsky, her crush on Mr. (you send me) Feldman, to Ann Keiles, and her gay party manners to Dede Sakofsky. Marty Wal- bautn she just leaves. Betty Van Nostrand leaves her diets to Kay Todras, and her basketball ability to her cute “Sister Aileen”. Her Senior money problems she leaves to the next “We’ll get to Washington if we die trying” Senior Class, and Art Kraemer she takes with her. Ruth “Roo” Weinstein leaves her fighting and unwavering ideologies to Marilyn Cohen. Her sudden switches of mood from “Shy Gal” to “Live Wire” she presents to Olga Cherviok. She leaves her exceptional Math ability to Allen “Nickles” Cohen. Georgia Wilson leaves her long, blonde hair to Ruth Smith, then Ruth can give Micky Kinsbrunner her peroxide so that he can bleach his freckles. (Who wants Micky to get rid of those freckles, anyway!); Georgia also leaves the Varsity- Squad Co-captainship to Monya Betuk and her blushing innosense to Jeannette Kozachuck. Tucker Wright leaves his way of falling asleep in a noisy classroom to Michael Finklestein. He leaves his punctuality to Allen Unger. (Tucker is the only person in the history of F.C.S. who was late to school more often than Toby Unger!) Isadore “Izzy” Zalkin donates his sweet and unaffected ways (ahem!) to Martin Walbaum. ITis virility he leaves to Morty Jacobs. His long string of high school romances remain with him to inspire him always in his pursuit of the opposite sex All of the Senior girls leave their lost glasses to Ronnie Ilazelriis. The Senior Class unanimously donates its hair to Mr. Beytin who can combine it with all the hair inherited from other classes to make a rug for his home. We leave our first aid supplies to Sonny McCrea, who usually needs them. • twenty-three WASHINGTON TRIP Our Washington trip began in the usual riotous F.C.S. manner. I he Inst sign of life was the arrival of the Altman Hus . . . and vvc say “life ’ for want of a better word. We were sitting (?) three abreast in Daddy’s narrow seats Those of us who were lucky to be sitting at all. The rest squirmed deliriously atop the surlaee of their suitcases—their comfort not aided greatly by the valise handles. he train compartment was a joy to behold, especially after surviving the tortuous rigors of the Altman vehicle. It wasn’t long after that the spurt of mad animation engulfed all the Seniors. Canasta, Pinochle, and “Piggy” games were pi of use. Soon after, alien Seniors began to visit . . . “just looking to see what's available . . . and we don t mean seats either. Izzy made them feel quite at home with his memorable introduction, “My name’s Sam.” Our first stop was Baltimore, where we were transferred to a tour bus (with a bioken P.A. system) that took us to Annapolis . . . Oh, those midshipmen! By this time most of us were concerned with that foreign occupation—eating. As Washing- ton grew nearer, however, the hunger subsided. At last! Washington. D.C. . .Gee! Supper at the Carlyle consisted of Southern Fried Chicken. It was the most wel- come attraction of the day. (How naive of us not to realize that this supper was re- presentative of what was to come for the next four days.) Only five minutes after the completion of our meal we met the most illustra- tive newcomer to our Washington trip, Paul. This very charming “Baltimoron with his delightful drawl and classic quips was to be our tour-guide and bus-driver for the duration of our entire stay. That night we witnessed two visual experiences destined to remain in our memories forever . . . the Lincoln Memorial and the illuminated Washington Monu- ment with its water reflections. There is no sight in Washington that is: more throat-catching and heart-warming than Honest Abe with his sympathetic and un- derstanding eyes. The Washington Monument did not touch our hearts in the same way. but was impressive in its own spectacular way. (Ruth and Libby just couldn’t resist walking over to the Potomac, which turned out to be Mirror Lake.) We then visited the Library of Congress. Ralph was so impressed, he got him- self lost in the restricted area! At the hotel, the thirty-eight F.C.S.’ers were pitilessly squashed into seven wee rooms. The result of this was not surprising! Lib, Roz, and Nomey shared an adjoining bathroom with Alan, Arthur, Ralph and Dick . . . Marion slept in the bathtub until Martha used the faucets. . . The voice in the other end of the phone insisted that the noise subside on the seventh • • tzvenly-fivc WASHINGTON TRIP floor . . . Kllcn couldn’t sleep, so she opened the window and proclaimed “forbidden facts’’ about Toby . . . Ronnie, filled with “Happiness”, began to tell “tail-tales” . . . Tucker was bored with them so he dropped into 716 where he found Gary, Andy, Mel, Ross and Yits still wide awake at 4:00 A.M. . . . Returning to his room Tucker found he was locked out, and so spent the night on the balcony . . . Everyone spent half the night running up and down backstairs (after all, we couldn’t go up and 11 in the elevator with P.J.’s on!) No words were more unwelcome than Mr. McMillan’s resounding “Get Up” at 0:45 A.M. The Carlyle breakfast was notable for its introduction to the fact that the rolls left over from the previous meal were offered at the next. On this day we visited the Capitol Building (where we had two very “interest- ing looking” guides), the Supreme Court Building and the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. YVe then returned to the spacious lawn of the Capitol where we had our picture taken. Lunch looked like supper which resembled breakfast. Especially the rolls—and, have we forgotten, the fruit cocktail! After lunch we piled into Paul’s vehicle and journeyed to Arlington, Virginia. The Arlington Cemetery turned out to be a graveyard, of all things! The guard at die Tomb of the Unknown Soldier had the most immobile poker face imaginable— he didn’t even squint when he bumped into Joyce and Jane. It was here, at Arling- ;on, that Nomey, gripping Mr. Bongo’s arm, pointed to a French inscription on the building and read it aloud. “You speak with an authentic accent,” said the voice be- longing to the arm. (It wasn’t Mr. Bongo!) After Arlington came Mount Vernon, which turned out to be one of the love- liest of all Washington sights. On returning home, we passed an area where no one with less than an as- sured $50,000 annual income could build a home. By this time Paul’s “Kiss my wrist” and “that’s George all the way” were already becoming by-words. That evening we had a seven o’clock appointment at an important Washington night club. The Casino Royale was attractive enough, but very crowded and un- atmospheric. The supper—(wouldn’t you know it) included an exoctic food called chicken. The floor show was good, and the band peppy, so we did have a wonderful time! Next on our list, in spite of the strong advocating of a burlesque show by some people, we went to the movies, divided into three groups. Mr. Bongo and the majority went to the Capital Theatre to see a circus show. Mr. McMillan and Gary went to see “Lullaby of Broadway” and the rest, with Mrs. McMillan to see “The Mating Season.” By no means was the night over, however, when the movies were. Bibby, Roz. and Harriet went dancing at the Rainbow Room with Deposit, Ottisville, and Izzy, respectively. Most of the others went to eat Pizza at the Villa Nova, or Chile at the Ranch. Back at the hotel, there were parties in rooms 221 and 720 . . . Don’t worry parents! Mr. Bongo was there. At 2:30 A.M. Mr. McMillan, (Bless Ilis Soul), came around “checking” the rooms. twenty-su WASHINGTON TRIP The morning oi the third day was infinitely the least exciting of all. We gave contributions ?) to the branciscan Monastery and the ashlngton Cathedral, where a cement block will be laid bearing the name of Fallsburgh Central. Murray and Martha signed the Cathedral Guest Book “Mr. and Mrs. Murray Gershon.” After lunch, we visited the Washington Monument, which during the day, is nothing like the beautiful edifice it is at night. The smart ones took the elevator. Later we visited the F.B.l. Building where a gorgeous, but married guide, Mr. Anderson, made many of the girls forget about their sore feet with his stimulating talk. 1 his was the day of the “free night —and quite a night it was. Marion took Joyce, Lillian and Laid to have sword-fish steak. There were a few who stayed in the hotel. I he greater part of the Senior Class, including Terry and Betty, who were escorted by a couple of Southern swain dates, went to the Capital Theatre to sec “ 1 hree Guys Named Mike and Connie Boswell in person. It was this night that we had our first romantic encounter with the much-touted Southern belles. One, a doll named Ada Grooms, was definitely one of Washington’s most glorious sights. Watch it Yits! The rest of the gang, Mr. and Mrs. McMillan, Mr. Longo, Rita. 1 zzy, Harriet, Arthur. Georgia, Alan, Toby, Dick and Roz went dancing at the Rainbow room and ate Pizza at the Villa Nova later ... In Marion and Mar- tha’s room, an all night party was in full bloom . . . Herbie and Ralphie had fun throwing coke bottles out of the 7th floor windows ... At five A.M. a group of fel- lows went out to Union Station where Arthur had his run-in with the law. (He hadn’t noticed the WOMEN sign overhead.) The last dav come, dreaded though it was. On this morning, I zzy slept his famous sleep (it was the NO-DC)Z) and couldn’t be woken for the morning tour. The sights were the Smithsonian Institute, the National Art Gallery and the Medical Build- ing. (The latter is guaranteed to produce nausea of the most genuine variety.) Leaving on the bus, those of us who dared, closed our eyes and tried to re- member flic little things . . . Georgia and the Scotch . . . Andy’s bet with the bell- hop . . . Paul’s “derrogatory remarks” and his deathless cliches . . . the fruit cock- tails . . . the rolls . . . and the loud P.J.’s. The train ride home, tired as we were, was also spiced with odd things. 'Perry’s “Hat Lady”, Mel’s photographic powers, Mr. Longo’s crazy games, and Mr. Mc- Millan’s yuk-yuk jokes. When we learned that eight students in the adjoining car had gastric flu. we gave three cheers for the fruit cocktail and the stale rolls. Soon it was over, but not dead . . . not by a Kbngshot . . . our memories are many, and 0I1 so vivid! Thank you, you wonderful chaperones . . . Mr. and Mrs. McMillan and Mr. Longo for sharing our experiences and being so “great.” We shall always remember you and the part you played in making our W ashington trip such a memorable one. • twcnlx-scvcn The Prophecy of the Class of '51 I onight is the new national holiday, ’51 Day, set aside to commemorate the re- markable contributions of the class of ’51 of F.C.S. Here we are in the Bamboo Room of the Pines Hotel. The Rhumba Band is going strong. It is 1971, twenty years since the high school graduation of this brilliant group of people. Do you remember their days in high school ? Just look at them now! The former Harriet Schweid is seen steering her husband, Baron Samuel V011 Ennis, away from tbe bar. The Baron, a former Pines Bellhop and ’51 er, won his fabulous fortune in a boiler-room crap game. It is rumored that Mrs. Von Ennis, the exotic head of the United States social circle is soon to present her husband with an heir. The $5,000,000 diamond necklace he gave her for their last anniversary is as beautiful as the wearer. The lovely Baroness, dressed completely in white, made a startling picture by dragging her rare white Chinchilla stole along the floor. The famous “playboy”, Arthur Burns, still in his sailor outfit, is avidly dis- cussing his remarkable cruise up the Neversink River in his lovely yacht, the S. S. Georgia, named for a certain lovely deb of yesteryear. I le has been seeing quite a bit of her His constant companion, Ralph Alper, the N.B.C., A.M., F.M., and T.V. Sports Director, writer of a syndicated newspaper column, and renowned sports authority, is said to have confirmed the rumor of the double marriages between Arthur to Edith Sakofsky, and himself to Beth Rockerfeller. Rita Teve’l, after creating quite a furor by marrying her former history teacher, seems to be quite calm now. And no wonder, her new novel, “The Sex Life of The Paramecium” has just received the Pulitzer Prize. Miss Teve’l, considered one of the outstanding authors and educators of the century, is collaborating with her husband on a new historical novel. Ellen Greek Gitlin, who married Max Gitlin, an old school crush, is Phil Spital- ney’s replacement as conductor of the United Nations All Girl Orchestra. She is seen dragging her shy husband onto tbe dance floor to rhumba. Maxie has to exer- cise restraint tonight of all nights, for Ellen, noted for imbibing, might become un- becomingly “gay”. Flame-haired, Chief Justice Terry Rozsa enters the room on the arm of her hus- band, the crew-cutted, Vice-President of the U.N. She is noted for her famous decision forbidding criticism of presidents’ daughters, and for being the guiding power in bringing about the change which made Dairyland the nation’s capital. Allen Greenstein, “The Chain Store” King, who contributed the “Greenstein’s Premium Frankfurters” which are being used here to-night, is dancing dreamily with a certain beautiful, long-haired blond and blushing model. It is known that Allen made his millions by selling hot dogs to the Senior Classes of F C-S. • twenty-eight The Prophecy of the Class of '51 Mr. beldman, the former class adviser.was permitted, in his tottering old-age to sit in the quietest corner of the hall to work on his New York Times Crossword Puzzle. The exertion of trying to find the three letter word meaning “metal hear- ing rock” has proven too much for him, and a nurse is needed. Iiis lovely wife returns with the world's finest nurse, Mrs. Betty-Lee Mary lane Lucy Jo Van Nostrand Kramer. Mt. Sinai’s Superintendent. Her world famous hands expertlv administer relief needed for Mr. Feldman, and Mr. Kramer re- turns to the side of her husband. Betty brought along her two beautiful children. Everyone in the room turns as they hear the roaring of thousands of devoted fans of the famous stage, screen, radio, television and recording star, Miss Vickce Landon. Miss Landon, whose real name is Toby Unger, enters the room sporting a new silver-blue mink coat, a gift from her new husband, (her seventh), director W. Martin. A week ago, Vickee received her 14th consecutive Academy Award. She can add this to her collection of Nobel, Pulitzer, and other awards for her brilliant work in the theatre. The Messers Richard Grossgold and Charles Farquhar, President and Vice- President, respectively, of Harvard University, both distinguished authorities on the English Language, have just completed the inauguration of an accelerated atomic education program at Harvard, making it the foremost institution of its kind. Charlie is now sitting alone, reading Walt Disney comics, while Richie and the Baroness Harriet Von Ennis are doing a sensational Mombo. Murray and Martha Gershon, removing their wraps in the lobby, are engrossed in their private conversation. It is not surprising, for with seven children and : thriving candy corporation, not much time is left for talk. Why, here are Mathew and Joyce Cohen! (Joyce Englander, remember?) Sir has become an authority on “Family Relations”. They have a large family whicl includes their many relations. The clanking of metal makes everyone look up. Two strangely dressed enter the room. They are Walter Enoch and Herbie Goldstein ! They have finally re- turned from their rocket trip to Mars. The noisy crowd flocks around them asking countless questions. “The people on Mars are all neurotics,” they say. “They need psychiatric treatment”. The first person they ask for, naturally, is the eminent physician who has been acclaimed as the greatest psychiatrist of the century, Doctor Marion Moser! She consents to make the next trip to Mars with Enoch and Gold- stein, and rushes to pack. twenty-n' The Prophecy of the Class of '51 On her way out, she collides with Ronald Thiel, the “Gorgeous Ron-’ of wrest- ling fame. A bloody streak on his right shoulder tells us that he has been wrestling Mr. Sam Beylin, again. He embraces Miss Moser. As the crowd nods knowingly, the two start an earnest conversation, and sparks of romance are flying everywhere. The crowd suddenly clears the floor and takes to the sidelines. All eyes are cast in the direction of the attractive couple doing a torrid Tony Dexter tango. The dark bundle of petite feminity is none other than our own Naomi Altman. Nome’s made quite a name for herself as a dance instructor for the Waldbaum Studios. Her partner is the Hon. Gary Myles Lederman, the Supreme Court Justice. The latter’s steps tire as smooth and graceful as his partner’s. The crowd is aghast with astonishment and admiration. The dance ends as the duo go into a breathtaking dip. One wonders if Mr. Lederman will ever get up from his most precarious position. The Maitre d’LIotel who is emceeing for the evening is our old pal, Isadore Zalkin. (It is rumored that Mr. Zalkin, whose legal ambitions were discouraged years ago, could have his own hotel if he wanted it but he prefers this position be- cause of its propinquity to the Baroness). lie walks up to the microphone and in his smooth and velvet voice announces the evening’s entertainment. The highlight of the show is Miss Charlotte (oh, Joy!) Basner who surprised everyone by tossing to the winds her “lamin’ books” and becoming a torch singer. Miss Basner, whose professional name is Petey Page, sings the perennial standard “Body and Soul”. She throws everything she’s got into the number—if more body than soul. V . ’ The deafening applause melts into hushed silence. All eyes are glued upon the couple entering: Miss Libby Joffc, and her latest beau, bow graciously to the thrilled onlookers. Libby, recently divorced from a German engineer, looks ravishing in a tight-fitting cocktail dress and black socks—a hangover from her cherished cheer- ing days. Her escort looks about in a most bewildered fashion. Years ago he was F.C.S.’s most verbose and vehement debater. Tonight he says nothing. We wonder if Miss Joffe had anything to do with this amazing transformation. The music is up again and the couples return to the dance floor. Suddenly quick flashes of light momentarily blind the dancers. Upon regaining their eyesight, the crowd discovers the cause of the disturbance to be Melvin Prager, the Flashbulb King. When not “developing” Mr. Prager spends his time writing. His friends are eagerly awaiting his first anthology to be called, “My Betht Poems.” Who is this? The striking face is most familiar and yet.... why, of course! It is the former Rosalyn Jaffe whose lovely hair is now a flaming reck Roz’s husband, it is said, forced her to d’ye her hair to match his own. Their four children are also “Carrot Tops.” • • thirty The Prophecy of the Class of '51 J lie former Miss Jaffe fills her spare time very nicely. If she is not enacting dramatic scenes from “ The Heiress” she is busily at work on her new book on economics, “Too Late Naton.” Summon the bouncers! Hurry! This man can be dangerous-—but wait. No. it isn’t a man it’s Harold Anderman, who’s been indulging again. The new Vice-President of the Ford Motor Co. and former owner of the solvent Marilyn Fruits, Inc., is still trying to locate the week-end he lost so mysteriously years ago. Maitre d’ Zalkin is at the microphone again. This time he announces a solo to be delivered by Isaac Kantrowitz. Mr. Kantrowitz has become one of the country’s most distinguished and versatile personages. In addition to working for the govern- ment, owning a fabulously wealthy reel-movie service and having a chain of gase- tcrias, he also finds a little time for his charming fiancee. The latter has been holding onto her man for more than twenty years now, but the irrepressible Yits refuses to be tied down. For his solo, Mr. Kantrowitz selects “Grandpa’s in the Kitchen” which brings tears to all the old friends who remember .... Latecomers for the evening are the former Misses Sylvia Gertsman and Ruth Weinstein. Sylvia, as you probably have heard, is the wife of the president of Saks 5th Ave. In her many luxurious hours of free time Sylvia studies law. Her chief ambition is still to be barred in Arizona. Miss Weinstein has been having ouite a life for herself and the lines on her still-lovely face prove it. Following her divorce from an eccentric baby doctor. Ruth fled to fabulous Reno where she became head of a half dozen roulette syndicates. A far cry, you will confess, from the subdued and spiritual soul we knew “way back when.” The dark gentleman who spent most of the evening mixing drinks is Sir Ross Barrie. Sir Ross has earned an international reputation with his prize-winning play “I was a Slug in a Machine,” his lyric poem “Than a Stop This,” and his headline romance with Ingrid Bergman’s grand-daughter. He’s certainly come a long, long way since those hazy days when his name was Harold Newman. Attention is focused again on the stage where Martin Handlesman is about to give us an imitation of the veteran crooner Gary Crosby. The author of “A Flea Grows in Brooklyn,” Martin has been going great guns these days as a top-flight impressionist and facial-contortionist. His mimicry is as wonderful as ever but the audience misses “Sonny Boy” and “Mammy-” These,, Martin does not wish to per- form. They arc his songs alone, to be held sacred forever. • thirty-one The Prophecy of the Class of '51 A lanky gentleman with doe-like eyes and a Varsity hobble-walk is standing at the bar- Why it’s Willie Kirituk, who’s teaching the newest generation the art of operating the lathe. 11 is part-time job as basketball coach was relinquished follow- ing “a mysterious probe” which Bill would enjoy forgetting. The evening is now in full swing. But wait! Someone is missing! Oh, here he comes! Thomas “'Pucker” Wright has just arrived, and only three hours late. The “Hobo King” has just signed his cigarette factory over to his best friend Gene Lowe, and Gene’s adorable wife, the former Lois Mensch. Lois is enraptured, for she can now have that adorable thirty room cottage in Woodbourne for which she has been yearning. I,ois is expecting again for the tenth time. 1 bet they make it an even dozen. Gene Smith and his nurse-wife Joan walk over to congratulate the Lowes on 'he fine turn of events. The Smith have little to complain about, since Gene received his appointment as commander of the new Air Force Academy at Kingston. Joan, like all of the beautifully dressed women present, is wearing her newest LILYKN creation. The designer, Lillian Seaman Vanderbilt, looks ravishing and oh, so pleased. Known to most as the “Designer for Queens”, Mrs. Vanderbilt is the first to have received a specially created Nobel Award for fashion design. To the left of Mrs. Vanderbilt, is that wonderful, stupendous, most super- colossal basketball star of all time, Robert “Blue F,yes” Simon. Bob has just signed a million dollar contract with the Woodridge Atoms. If you remember, Bob and the Baron Von Ennis were best friends in H igh School. Now, he pays mo heed to Sam. He is too busy watching the ravishing blond model, Georgia Wilson Powers, as she wanders from friend to friend on the arm of her handsome husband. I Ie is the millionaire model agency king, John Robert Powers III. Miss Wilson, the first model ever to receive $t.ooo per hour, was in such demand as a Cover Girl, that she retired, because of overwork, to teach kindergarten in the “almost” completed new Fallsburgh Central School. Miss Sandra Marcus, painter of the murals in the new and remarkably built school, will also teach Spanish there. Miss Marcus looks lovely tonight, and her hair is done in astonishing manner that is unmistakably typical of the Styles of Jane Smith. Miss Smith is the hair stylist for all the major movie studios. It was Miss Smith’s hairstyling that started the “.Atomic Trend’’, and designers practically worship her ideas. In fact, designer Lilyen at one time said. “Miss Smith’s hair styles are so revolutionary that we have to design entire new wardrobes to meet the requirements of some of her creations.” The reunion is just about over, and the chauffeured cars are being driven to the • front of the building. We notice that all of the chauffeurs have also graduated from F.C.S.. onlv a year later. 1952. and the guests smile patronizingly at the former Junior Bovs. The World-Famous celebrities step into their cars and a most fabulous evening draws to a close. • thirty-two DEARIE, DO YOU REMEMBER....

They experienced the incomparable thrill of receiving their class rings, after waiting many anxious months for them to arrive. The Junior Prom was indeed a fitting end for a busy and fruitful year.

The Year Book Club How better to exhibit the fruits of our labor than to give to you. the finished pro- duct .... our 1951 Yearbook. Under the guidance of Mr. Hertz and Mrs. Greenberg, the staff has worked as a single unit in making the book a reality. It was fun to produce, and we all have to admit we’re proud of the result. 1 Iowever, it could never have been a success without the aid of a great many people. So, we’d like to say Tl IANKS A M l IJ JON to Mr. Edward Pearlene for his excellent photography, to Mr. Harry Gold for his spectacular photography, to Mr. Robert Longo for his much needed assistance with art work and layout, to Miss Irma Nishman for all her help on layout and art work, to Mr. Irving Hertz for everything........,to Mrs. Helen Greenberg for her ex- cellent job of proofreading, to the Laurel Music Company for granting us permission to use the title “Dearie. Do You Remember . . . .” as our theme, and to all who in some way or another have helped to make FOCUS a success! • jorty-four Year Book Staff Rosalyn Jaffe Editor-in-Chief Arthur Burns Assistant Editor FISA TURK EDITORS Toby Unger Rita Tevelowitz Editor-in-chief LITERARY EDITORS I larriet Schweid Charlotte Basner SPORT EDITORS Allen Greenstein William Kiriluk ART EDITORS Georgia Wilson llelene I lantman BUSINESS Ross Newman TYPING EDITORS Betty Van Nostrand Ruth Weinstein PHOTOGRAPHY EDITORS Joseph Rosenshein Melvin Prager MANAGERS Richard Rosen Libby Joffe Yearbook Officers- Mated: ltutli Weinstein, Helene Uiintinan, Libby Jolle, Iiosalvn Jaffe, Rita Tevelowitz, Hettv Vail Nostrand, Georgia Wilson, (.hnrlotte Battler.

Its purpose is to solve problems, establish beneficial laws, and accomplish more for its students. A president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer as well as the presidents of every high school grade and the vice-presidents of the senior classes make up the student organization. The parties have been successful, the laws just, and the benefits numerous. In a combined effort, the council has strived for, and has achieved, a better school system. We are proud of this record, and we know that in future years we will continue to take pride in the record of the student council!

The Student Court Introducing our new but powerful Student Court! Functioning for the first time this year the new born student court lias proven itself successful and firm. The judges are elected students and the defendants are those who have com- mitted some crime in, or concerning the school. We believe the court to be fair in its dealings and just in its verdicts. However, it will be you the students, who will continue to set high standards for the students to follow. There are two chief justices and four judges. Also a clerk, a bailiff, and two prosecuting attorneys. The defendant may choose anyone he wishes to be his defense attorney and the court holds the right to call any witnesses to testify. forty-seven Bottom row: Ailccn Van Xos'trnnd, Lllen Sakofsky, Charlotte Basncr, Lydia Cohen, Marion Moser, Mr. Milton Jacobs, Miss Ca- mellia DcWItt.

The Comet can boast of a paper that is appealing and close to every student while still lacking gossip and harmful in- sinuations. It will continue to represent the students, their works, and their en- thusiastic school spirit. Thanks Miss DeWitt for your wonder- ful guidance. The Band What school is ever complete without its famous hand? Certainly not this one! The students take their’s seriously, like it, enjoy playing in it. ()n many’occasions, with Mr. Hertz brandishing the baton, the band lias played at important functions and played well. But one of its most exciting exhibitions was at home basketball games where the members played the school songs with all the spirit possible. Hats off to you, the T CS band!

Stage Craft Club A salute to another one of our new and highly , successful clubs. It's a little unusual in the fact that it deals only in- •; • directly with the theatre. Here members learn, under the direction of Mr. Dicken- son. to apply stage make-up, make model stages, and build and paint scenery. Tlicy arc the jobs that go on before the curtain goes up, but it’s also the backbone of ' every worthwhile play. When the final word is said and the applause can be heard thundering throughout the auditorium there’s just as much pride in every stage- craft member’s heart as there is in the actors and actresses who played the roles. • fifty-fivp Sitting: Lawrence Kramer, Robert Sciglcr, Janet Reynolds, Honda Rosv, Joan Eckert, Dorothy Tavormina, Arline Lepkoskie Standing: Michael Hove.

Soccer The 1950-51 Soccer season’s first game found the Comets clashing with the Monties. Though it was a hard fought game, the Comets were defeated 9-0. In the second game, the Comets were able to score four points against Middle- town. (The first two points by Podliurst, and the latter two by Feinstein on a beautiful setup by Feldman.) I he Middies, however, scored seven points in a well challenged game. On October 16. the Comets met Kllcnville. Due to a penalty kick by Jacobs, and a goal by Findling. the Comets scored 3 points. However, the Blue Devils surged forward with an 11-3 triumph. In the second half of the season, Fallsburgh again faced Monticello. Although the opposing team scored a penalty kick in the early minutes of the Inst cjuaitet. the Comets held them to a close stalemate in the second and third, until the close of the game when the Monties scored a final goal and won 3 o. A little discouraged, F.C.S. entered its second meet with Middletown to be cheer- ed on to a thrilling 2-0 victory. (The goal was kicked by Feinstein in the first few minutes of the game.) The season was a hard and a trying one, not only for the team, but for their coach, Mr. Roland Allen, as well. He took a group of boys and welded them into a hard fighting and highly spirited team. It was only through his fine guidance that the team worked together as one. • sixty-six J. V. Basketball The J. . surprised everyone tlvs year, especially their able coach, Mr. Na- than Weiss, by coming through wi h a 13 _j record.
