The third quarter blues plagued the Boys' Basketball Team at the beginning. Play- ing excellent first half ball, they would lapse in the third quartet. Then the team picked up, with Bob Liss and Bill Cohen hitting from the outside. Richie Price supplied the drama for the Millermen with the fast breaks and clutch foul shooting which beat Walden in the final two seconds. Tom Strauss han- dled the backboards, and Captain Lew Gold- man, after recovering from a knee injury, lent needed support with his looping set shots and deceptive drives. Pete Som and Steve Ablon regularly gave their invaluable assistance as well. Splashing about in triangular meets only C a scheduling innovationb, the Swim- ming Team got its fill of chlorine while sail- ing through a mixed season. Leading the race were co-captains Nat Kwit and Dave Hellerstein, while Bob Abrams and Dave Stephenson rode the waves, setting new rec- ords in the free style and backstroke respec- tively. Although veteran Mermen jay Pob- liner, Bill Weber, Dick Levien, and Peter Klotz never acquired gills, they all turned in expert performances under the tutelage of Alton Clarion Smith. In the Fieldston In- vitationals, the swimmers placed high in the duodecimal competition.

Disregarding the fact that College Board Achievement Tests were only a few weeks away, two-thirds of the Sixth Form forewent several days of vacation cram time to participate in the traditional Washington trip. Since First Form, the class of '59 had been famed as a group possessing the desir- able quality of togetherness, and this spirit persuaded a record number of seniors Cboth numerically and percentagewisej to brave the long bus ride. Visiting the nation's capital, of course, demanded a fair share of the groups time in the role of tourists. The usual peregrina- tions, in addition to a fifty flight climb of the Washington Monument, were taken to the Capitol, the Lincoln and jefferson Memo- rials, Mt. Vernon, et all Although this is all mandatory procedure, the most exhilarating moments were spent in hot, crowded rooms, listening to a group of fatigued and harried men and women expound on various issues. First, there was New Yorlc's senior senator, Jacob javits, who came from a series of seemingly interminable committee debates to give fhoughtful and concise answers to a wide range of student questions. CAfore- mentioned students were quite breathless, having stormed the Capitol stairs on the run after the escape of the buses with only half the form.J And there was Senator Keating on civil rights, reporters Alan and Nancy Emory, who expounded on local integration problems and the business of covering Washington, and even the President himself, whose press conference was attended by the ubiquitous Neufr editors. The ultra-prudent chaperones for the adventure made up a perfectly delightful sextet of Rosenthal, Norris, juka, Scott, Darby, and Nomer.

BASKETBALL TEAM: 1. to r., front row: Sue Braun, Lainey Kotlar, Joy Weinman, Ruthie Neubauer and Toni Halpern, co-captains, Renee Raphael, Jeanie Senegas, Ellie Wimpf- heimerg second row: Fran Evory, Nancy Morris, Bobbie Fisher, Lois Lempel, Ginni Samuels, Julie Adams, Ann Meyer, Judy Schupfg tbird row: Coach Pat Katzenstein, Carol Horwitz, Ina Schuman, Carolyn Adams, Rona Lefkowitz, Linda Freeman, Thomassine Sellers. The confidence and enthusiasm with which the Girls' Basketball Team gracefully took the floor was sparked this year not only by the captains, Toni Halpern and Ruth Neubauer, but by two feats of moment. One was outscoring Calhoun by a greater margin than the boys' team achieved against Bar- nard, the other was the well-witnessed con- test against the Fieldston Female Faculty, in which the Hoopettes were seen to blaze down the court with the teachers in pursuit. That the scandal-hungry News re- porters recorded the score as 300-27 in favor of the teachers did not diminish the team's ambition to challenge, someday, the male faculty. Stroking back into existence after last winter's hibernation, the Girls' Swimming Team, oblivious to the icy snow outside, en- joyed its season in the coo-ool pool. Last year, because of a lack of competition, the team was disbanded, but the cries of protest raised by disappointed old members and prospective new ones provided the incentive for a search for rivals. Caroline Legerman, the lone returning varsity swimmer, and junior Nina Zasorin were elected co-cap- tains. Inspired by the new coach, Edie Martins, and by its own aquatic talents, the team dove into its meets with a gusto one would expect only of a school of fish.
